John Africa (July 26, 1931 – May 13, 1985), born Vincent Leaphart, was the founder of MOVE, a Philadelphia-based, predominantly black organization active from the early 1970s and still active. He and his followers were killed at a residential home, which served as the headquarters of MOVE, in a fire after the Philadelphia Police Department bombed the house with C4-explosive, and deliberately let the fire rage until it was out of control following a standoff and firefight between MOVE and police.

Africa starb zusammen mit fünf weiteren Erwachsenen und fünf Kindern, als das Philadelphia Police Department eine Polizeiaktion gegen das Hauptquartier von MOVE wegen Beschwerden der Nachbarn durchführte, auf das schließlich eine Bombe abgeworfen wurde.
