Minnie Martin Alcindor (1879–1961) was a British pan-Africanist activist best known for her work supporting the African diaspora in London during the early twentieth century. She was married to Dr. John Alcindor, a prominent Trinidadian-born physician, and continued her community-focused efforts following his passing.
In the 1920s, Alcindor managed Remi House, a hostel located in London. Under her leadership, the establishment became a crucial hub and "a busy meeting house for lonely Africans" navigating life in the British capital. Through this work, she played a significant role in fostering a supportive network for African students, visitors, and residents during the interwar period.
