In the episode members of the Kenya Organic Intellectuals Network returns to the podcast. Folks will recall that we had a conversation with them last year on their book Breaking the Silence on NGOs in Africa. This conversation started thinking about the situation in Haiti. We previously had a discussion with Dr. Jemima Pierre on the current situation and the western backed invasion of Haiti for which Kenya is sending police. But also I was interested in how the struggle in Palestine was being received in Kenya both at a governmental level and among the masses. Along those lines, often Sudan, Congo, and Haiti are raised up as other examples of genocide, of imperialism, of terrible violence and humanitarian catastrophe as people seek to expand our analysis of what's happening in Palestine beyond that individual conflict. I wanted to get their perspectives on all of these situations as folks who organize from a Pan African Scientific Socialist perspective from the Kenyan context. Just a note that May 25th is African Liberation Day and we also hosted a conversation with the All-African People's Revolutionary Party on our YouTube channel the other day. Our guests are Gacheke Gachihi, Lewis Maghanga, Okakah Onyango, and Wanjiru Wanjira. Gacheke Gachihi is the Coordinator of Mathare Social Justice Centre and a member of the Organic Intellectuals Network. Lewis Maghanga is a member of the Organic Intellectuals Network and an organiser with the Revolutionary Socialist League based in Kenya. Okakah Onyango is a member of the Revolutionary Socialist League, Organic Intellectuals Network and Social Justice Movement. He is a dedicated tech-driven community organizer, blending roles of revolutionary intellectualism and communications strategist. Wanjira Wanjiru is a social justice advocate and artivist with a decade of experience as a grassroot human rights defender. She is Co- founder of the Mathare Social Justice centre and coordinator of Matigari kids book club where children learn about pan-african history. She is a writer with the Kenya Organic Intellectuals Network and co-host of Liberating Minds podcast, a history channel on Youtube. She is also working with the African Social Justice Network team in South Africa and Zambia. After we recorded this episode Mathare experienced major floods. We've included a video of Wanjira discussing the floods. There was also a mass arrest of human rights defenders at the Mathare Social Justice Centre. We encourage folks to reach out to the Mathare Social Justice Centre to see if there are ways that we can provide support. And I would just note that in this discussion obviously we focused so much on struggles elsewhere and its important to connect and look for ways to support these comrades in their struggles as well. We hope that people will connect with these comrades to discuss how they can learn more from them and coordinate struggles with them as they suggest in the episode. I will just note I know a majority of our work has been on the Youtube side in recent months, make sure you subscribe to our YouTube feed so that you can access all of that content as well. We do have a lot of audio work that needs to be edited and released as well and we're working to find the right balance to get that work done.

African Day, also known as African Liberation Day is the day where Africans across the world celebrate the hard-fought freedom from colonial powers. On 25 May 1963, representatives of thirty African nations met in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, hosted by Emperor Haile Selassie. By then more than two-third of the continent had achieved independence, mostly from imperial European states. At this meeting, the then Organisation of African Unity (OAU) was founded, with the initial aim to encourage the decolonisation of Angola, Mozambique, South Africa, Namibia, and Southern Rhodesia (Zimbabwe). The organisation pledged to support the work conducted by freedom fighters, and remove military access to colonial nations. A charter was set out which sought to improve the living standards across member states. Emperor Selassie exclaimed, "May this convention of union last 1,000 years. Africa Day continues to be celebrated both in Africa and around the world, mostly on 25 May. In 2021 African communities across the world decided to come together to celebrate and commemorate African day on Clubhouse (CH) - an audio based social media platform. A 24 hours commemoration marathon was hosted in the “Africa Day Club” on CH. The event brought together Africans residing in the continent and Africans in the rest of the world. Africa Day 2021 also featured incredible speakers including Her Excellency Ambassador Arikana Chihombori Quao.

Africa Day (formerly African Freedom Day and African Liberation Day) is the annual commemoration of the foundation of the Organisation of African Unity on 25 May 1963. It is celebrated in various countries on the African continent, as well as around the world. And so we pause to reflect on the Bible. The Word has an essential place in our liberation struggle, yet we grapple with the fact that it was used as a tool to keep us subjugated. On this Africa Day, we seek to overturn the myths, identify the people and correct the perspectives as we search for Africans in the Bible. And so we join with one of our favorite intellectuals, a prolific theologian, an incredible teacher, my friend Elder Oscar Owens, PHD.......

In this episode of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Liberation News Editor Walter Smolarek to discuss the new divisions exposed in the Democratic Party amid Israel's latest siege of Gaza, as well as the Supreme Court case regarding Mississippi's draconian abortion ban law which could potentially upend Roe v. Wade.In the second segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Zoe Pepper-Cunningham, a journalist with People's Dispatch, to discuss the latest in the anti-neoliberal protests continuing across Colombia, the demands of the hundreds of thousands who've taken to the streets since the National Strike began on April 28th, and why many are skeptical about the filing of charges against a lone Colombian police officer after dozens of protesters were killed at the hands of state security forces.In the third segment, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Black Alliance for Peace Coordinating Committee member Netfa Freeman to discuss the enduring significance of African Liberation Day and why the struggles for liberation among racially and economically oppressed communities across the globe are “inextricable.”Later in the show, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Dr. Gerald Horne, Moores Professor of History and African American Studies at the University of Houston, and author of the books “The Bittersweet Science: Racism, Racketeering and the Political Economy of Boxing” to discuss the one-year anniversary of the murder of George Floyd by then-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, whether we've “reached a point of diminishing returns” in terms of fictional depictions of the “grotesque savagery inflicted on Black people” by Hollywood, and the 100th anniversary of the Tulsa race massacre.
Today, on Sojourner Truth: We continue our coverage of African Liberation Week, which kicked off on Monday, May 25, with African Liberation Day. On April 15, 1958, in the city of Accra, Ghana, African leaders convened the first Conference of Independent African States. The conference included representatives from Ethiopia, Ghana, Liberia, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Tunisia, the United Arab Republic (which included Egypt and Syria) and representatives of the National Liberation Front of Algeria and the Union of Cameroonian Peoples. This was the first Pan-African Conference held on the continent. It represented the unity of African people to the racist systems of colonialism and imperialism. Among other provisions, the conference called for the founding of African Freedom Day. Five years later, after the First Conference of Independent African States in the city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, another historical meeting occurred. On May 25, 1963, leaders of thirty-two independent African States met to form the Organization of African Unity. At the historic Organization of African Unity meeting, the date of Africa Freedom Day was changed from April 15 to May 25 and Africa Freedom Day was declared African Liberation Day. African Liberation Day has been marked annually on May 25th in every corner of the world ever since. This year is no different. Africans Rising, a grassroots Pan-Africanist movement on the continent, kicked off a week-long mobilization on African Liberation Day. The movement has been hosting online conversations, actions and events dedicated to keeping all Africans safe during this global health crisis. The theme of their mobilization is Active Citizenship in the Fight Against COVID-19. Africans from all over the world " including the U.S., the U.K., the Caribbean and Latin America " have been taking part in it. Other Pan-Africanist movements have been hosting similar mobilizations focused on COVID-19, given its hard impact on African people. Today, you will hear audio from an African Liberation Week webinar hosted by the Advocacy Network for Africa. The virtual event briefed audiences around the world about COVID-19 in Africa and the diaspora, the responses taking place, and what needs to happen to mitigate COVID-19. The event was moderated by Robtel Neajai Pailey, a Liberian academic, activist and author. Speakers included Coumbe Toure of Africans Rising, Nana Gyamfi of the Black Alliance for Just Immigration, Abdiqadir Yousuf Abdullahi, a doctor with the organization Save the Vision, and Nyeleti Honwana with Global Black Youth.

Today on Sojourner Truth, our African Liberation Day special. On Monday, May 25, millions of people around the world marked African Liberation Day. The date is observed annually and serves as a coming together of all African people, both on the continent and in the diaspora. On April 15, 1958, in the city of Accra, Ghana, African leaders convened the first Conference of Independent African States. The conference included representatives from Ethiopia, Ghana, Liberia, Libya, Morocco, Sudan, Tunisia, the United Arab Republic (which included Egypt and Syria) and representatives of the National Liberation Front of Algeria and the Union of Cameroonian Peoples. This conference was the first Pan-African Conference held on the African continent. It represented the collective expression of African peoples opposition to the racist systems of colonialism and imperialism. Among other provisions, the conference called for the founding of African Freedom Day. Five years later, after the First Conference of Independent African States in the city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, another historical meeting occurred. On May 25, 1963, leaders of thirty-two independent African States met to form the Organization of African Unity. At the historic Organization of African Unity meeting, the date of Africa Freedom Day was changed from April 15 to May 25 and Africa Freedom Day was declared African Liberation Day. African Liberation Day has been marked annually on May 25th in every corner of the world ever since. Our guests are Nana Gyamfi and Dr. Gerald Horne. Nana Gyamfi is an attorney, consultant, educator, activist and the Executive Director of Black Alliance for Just Immigration (BAJI). Dr. Gerald Horne, Moores Professor of History & African-American Studies at the University of Houston, has written more than 30 books. His most recently published books include White Supremacy Confronted: U.S. Imperialism and Anti-communism vs. the Liberation of Southern Africa, From Rhodes to Mandela and "Jazz and Justice: Racism and the Political Economy of the Music.

0:08 – South Africa is on a “Level 4” of a five-level emergency system, entering one of the world's strictest lockdowns. Lynsey Chutel is a journalist and television news producer based in Johannesburg, South Africa, and talks about how the country is slowly re-opening. The government also implemented an alcohol ban, Chutel says, both out of concern for domestic violence and also in an effort to keep emergency rooms empty by preventing injuries from accidents and brawls. 0:20 – Senegal has 2,189 Covid-19 cases and 23 deaths, according to numbers from Johns Hopkins University. Amidst grave concerns about the virus spreading on the continent, mass organizing is taking place on the ground to limit the impact of the disease. We hear updates from Coumba Toure of Africans Rising for Peace, Justice and Dignity, a Pan-African advocacy organization for Africans across the diaspora. Toure says an action is planned for May 25, African Liberation Day, under the banner “Rise For Our Lives.” 0:34 – Spotlight on the Oakland Undocumented Relief Fund with Carolina Martin Ramos of Centro Legal de la Raza, in Oakland.

'ON THE GROUND' SHOW FOR MAY 31, 2019 Marchers rallied at the White House on May 25th for African Liberation Day and called on the Trump administration to end crippling sanctions against the Southern African country of Zimbabwe. And in DC, advocates for quality health care vow to continue the fight for DC's only full service hospital east of the Anacostia River. Plus headlines on: -the Medicare for All Emergency Ambulance Tour. -a Maryland man set himself on fire in a busy tourist area near the white House on Wednesday. -Greenpeace gave each Democratic presidential candidate a climate grade this week. -the Department of Energy set out a press release referring to Americas fracked natural gas as molecules of freedom or freedom gas. -Brooklyn artist Dano Wall has created a 3-D rubber stamp that replaces the face of the genocider and slave owner Andrew Jackson with the face of Harriet Tubman. And it's totally legal! Correction: the DC broadcast and podcast version of this show misstates the date of the DC Council vote on funding for United Medical Center (UMC).

Welcome to the radio magazine that brings you news, commentary and analysis from a Black Left perspective. I’m Glen Ford, along with my co-host Nellie Bailey. Coming up: the stand-off at the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington, continues; African Liberation Day will be marked by protests against the ongoing sanctions against Zimbabwe; and, we’ll get an African feminist perspective on women’s roles in secessionist movements on the continent. Lots of people know that Chicago recently elected its first Black woman mayor, but the elections also created a sharp change in the city council. Before the people went to the polls in February, only one alderman out of 50 on the council supported community control of the police. However, community activists take credit for changing that equation at the ballot box. After the election, 17 Chicago council members say they’ll vote to establish CPAC, the Civilian Police Accountability Council. Aislinn Pulley is the founder and Co-leader of Black Lives Matter, Chicago. We asked Pulley what effect the victories in the city council will have on movement strategy. Activists with Code Pink, the Answer Coalition and Popular Resistance continue to occupy the Venezuelan Embassy, in Washington, keeping it out of the hands of supporters of Juan Gauido, the Venezuelan opposition leader who appointed himself president. The United States has recognized Guaido, and has been confiscating Venezuelan property, in addition to imposing punishing sanctions on the country. The American activists inside the embassy were invited to keep watch on the place by the elected government of Venezuela. Last Friday, we asked Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin how she and the others in the embassy are holding up. African Liberation Day is May 25, and Zimbabwe is o top of the agenda. We spoke with human rights lawyer Roger Wareham, of the Brooklyn New York-based December 12th Movemet. Not all people in Africa are satisfied with the borders that were drawn around their countries by European colonizers. Jacqueline Bethel-Mougoue is a feminist scholar and professor of history at Baylor University who’s been studying the roles that women play in secessionist movements in Africa.
Vanley Burke is a Jamaican-born photographer often described as the Godfather of Black British Photography. His body of work is regarded as the greatest photographic record of African Caribbean people in post-war Britain. He is motivated by a desire to document culture and history. Vanley was born in 1951 in St Thomas, Jamaica. When he was four, his mother emigrated to Britain to train as a nurse, leaving him in his grandparents' care. His mother sent him a Box Brownie camera as a present when he was ten, and his interest in photography was born. When he was 14 he left Jamaica to join his mother and her husband and their children, in Handsworth, Birmingham, where they ran a shop. Vanley's fascination with photography continued and he began taking photographs of every aspect of the life of his local community. He also started collecting relevant objects to provide more context for his photographs, gathering everything from pamphlets, records and clothes to hurricane lamps. His archive became so substantial that it is largely housed in Birmingham's Central Library.In 1977 he photographed African Liberation Day in Handsworth Park, documenting what is thought to be the largest all-black crowd ever to assemble in Britain. In 1983 he held his first exhibition, Handsworth from the Inside, at the Ikon Gallery in Birmingham, and in 2015 the entire contents of his flat was relocated to the gallery for the exhibition At Home with Vanley Burke. His images have appeared in galleries around the UK and abroad. Earlier this year, he was commissioned to mark the 70th anniversary of the arrival of the Empire Windrush, creating the installation 5000 Miles and 70 Years at the MAC in Birmingham.CASTAWAY'S FAVOURITE: Blue in Green by Miles Davis BOOK CHOICE: Encyclopedia of Tropical Plants by Ahmed Fayaz LUXURY ITEM: A Machete and a Crocus bagPresenter: Lauren Laverne Producer: Cathy Drysdale

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression.

Guests: 1.As a youth living in Los Angeles, CA, Akubundu Amazu-Lott experienced first hand being profiled by the police. On at least a half dozen occasions he was pulled over at gun-point by the LAPD. This experience contributed to his understanding that African people in America were treated as second-class citizens. He made his way out of Los Angeles to SJSU. There he participated in sports (football) and received his B.S. in Business Administration and his Master of Urban Planning. He joined the All-African People's Revolutionary Party (AAPRP) in 1979 and is currently on the Central Committee and the California Chapter Coordinating Council. It is through his extensive study of Pan-Africanism and the struggles of oppressed people globally that he remains motivated to work for positive change. He has been an adjunct professor at SJSU for the past seven years in the African-American Studies Department. 2.

TONIGHT: Listen to The African History Network Show, Thurs., March, 19th, 8:00pm-10:00pm EST (5:00am-7:00pm PST) with host Michael Imhotep. We'll also discuss “Should African Americans Celebrate St. Patrick's Day”. Call in with your Questions/Comments at 914-338-1375. Around this time of the year you will see St. Patrick's Day Parades, Kiss Me I'm Irish T-Shirts, Green Beer, Leprechauns, etc. It is expected that 127 million Americans will spend approximately $4.6 Billion during this St. Patrick's Day holiday. One of the strangest things you will see is African Americans participating in this “celebration”. Do you really know what you are celebrating? Have you studied the history of St. Patrick's Day? Even if you claim that you have Irish Ancestry do you really know what you are celebrating? Did you know that Patrick was not Irish he was British? Why do we participate in celebrations without knowing what we are participating in? If you wear Green on St. Patrick's Day, will you wear Red, Black & Green on African Liberation Day? If not, why not? I'm pretty sure you have more African Ancestry than Irish Ancestry. Malaika Cooper of “The Baltimore Natural Hair Care Expo” and Relationship Expert C.J. Gross will join us to talk about this upcoming Natural Hair Care Expo in Baltimore, Sat. March 21st & Sun. March 22nd.

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay!
