Members of the OvaHerero community assembled in Okahandja to honour their fallen heroes and commemorate the genocide. The annual Red Flag Day serves to unify the OvaHerero people and enlighten the younger generation about their history. The repatriation of Samuel Maharero's remains from Botswana on August 23, 1923, established a permanent date for the commemoration. As a result, Red Flag Day consistently occurs on the weekend following this significant day. Selima Henock #NBCNews #nbcdigitalnews
