Memorial for Syriah Henderson to be held at the Uhuru House; InPDUM&nbsp;President to Speak



The public is invited to attend a Syriah Henderson Memorial sponsored by the International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement (InPDUM). The Memorial will recognize the life of Syriah Henderson, the 29 year old Black woman found hanging from a tree behind the Dollar Tree Store at 3426 Central Avenue on July 1, 2026. The St. Petersburg Police Department declared the hanging death of Henderson a suicide shortly after the discovery of her body. However, due to the suspicious nature of her death,&nbsp; InPDUM has initiated its own homicide investigation.

This Memorial will be an opportunity for the African community to become organized, build&nbsp; political power and pursue economic development. The keynote speaker will be long time activist and current International President of the InPDUM, Bakari Olatunji. Other speakers will include Nevela Williams, mother of Syriah Henderson, Jamie Simpson, of the Uhuru Solidarity Movement and others.&nbsp;

Syriah Henderson Candlelight Vigil to be Held at Site of Hanging&nbsp;

The public is invited to attend a Candlelight Vigil sponsored by the International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement (InPDUM). The Candlelight Vigil will be another fightback action to make the world aware of the suspicious hanging death of Syriah Henderson.

Henderson was found hanging from a tree on July 1, 2026. The organization is aggressively building a campaign to make Henderson’s death a cause to rally the Black community to organize for political power, economic development and self defense.&nbsp;

The Vigil is seen as a defining moment in the struggle against colonial violence against the African community. The InPDUM knows that colonialism imposes political powerlessness, poverty, and violence on the Black community.&nbsp;&nbsp;

There is historic significance to the Vigil being held on October 24th. The Vigil is being held 30 years after the police murder of 18 year old Tyron Lewis. A moment of silence will recognize the murder of Lewis at the same time showing that colonial violence against African people comes in many forms. It’s time to fight back.&nbsp;We will gather behind the Dollar Tree at 3426 Central Avenue, St. Pete, where Syriah Henderson's body was found.Contact: (727)914-3617 or email InPDUMSTPETE2@gmail.com&nbsp;
