The article examines the political and intellectual contributions of Baro Tumsa in forming the Oromo Liberation Front (OLF) and developing the Oromo national movement. After the Haile Selassie government banned the Macha-Tulama Self-Help Association (MTA) in 1967 and killed or imprisoned its prominent leaders and members, Baro played a central role in the Oromo national struggle facilitating the birth of the OLF. This organization has been mobilizing and leading the Oromo society since the 1970s and is becoming a major political force in shaping the future of Oromia and Ethiopia
