Nikki Giovanni, the legendary poet, activist, and cultural trailblazer, passed away on Dec. 9 at the age of 81. A literary giant and a fearless truth teller, she died with her wife, Virginia Fowler, by her side. For over five decades, Giovanni's words were a battle cry for justice, a love letter to Black culture, and a mirror reflecting the beauty and complexity of the Black experience. Dubbed the Poet of the Black Revolution, her groundbreaking collections Feeling Black, Black Talk, and Black Judgment helped define the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s. Her work was unapologetic and raw, a powerful testament to the resilience of Black people. Born in Knoxville, Tennessee, Giovanni didn't just write history, she made it. At Fisk University, she revitalized the campus Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) chapter. But she didn't stop at a page. She spent over 35 years at Virginia Tech, shaping future generations as a professor and mentor. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Black Panther Hijacks Plane to AlgeriaGuest: Lorenzo Kom' Boa ErvinANARCHISM AND THE BLACK REVOLUTION-Black Panther Party For Self DefenseLorenzo Kom'boa Ervin (born 1947) is an American writer, activist, and black anarchist. He is a former member of the Black Panther Party. He was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and has lived in Memphis, Tennessee, since 2010.When he was 12, Ervin joined the NAACP youth group and participated in the sit-in protests that helped end racial segregation in Chattanooga. He was drafted during the Vietnam War and served in the army for two years, where he became an anti-war activist. In 1967 he joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and, a short time later, the Black Panther Party.In February 1969, Ervin hijacked a plane to Cuba to evade prosecution for allegedly trying to kill a Ku Klux Klan leader. While in Cuba and Czechoslovakia, Ervin became disillusioned with state socialism. After several unsuccessful attempts, the American government eventually extradited Ervin and brought him to the U.S. to face trial. Ervin was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.Ervin first learned about anarchism while in prison in the late 1970s. He read numerous anarchist books, and his case was adopted by the Anarchist Black Cross, a political prisoner support organization. While in prison, Ervin wrote several anarchist pamphlets, including Anarchism and the Black Revolution, which has been reprinted many times and may be his best-known work.Eventually, Ervin's legal challenges and an international campaign led to his release from prison after 15 years.Please SUBSCRIBE!!!!If you like this show you can find more just like it in The Opperman Reporthttps://www.patreon.com/oppermanreportThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/1198501/advertisement

This special issue of the Anarchist Essays podcast features a discussion between JoNina Ervin, Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin, and William C. Anderson. It originally appeared on the Black Autonomy Podcast. In October 2021, Pluto published the definitive edition of Anarchism and the Black Revolution by Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin. The book first connected Black radical thought to anarchist theory in 1979, and now amidst a rising tide of Black political organizing, this foundational classic has been republished with a wealth of original material, including forewords by William C. Anderson and Joy James. This episode of Black Autonomy Podcast is brought to you in collaboration with the Pluto Press podcast 'Radicals in Conversation,' in which JoNina Ervin hosts a discussion between Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin and William C. Anderson about Black anarchism across the generations. Ervin and Anderson discuss the reasons for the continued relevance and increasing popularity of Black anarchism today, what an ‘ungovernable' radical movement might look like, and the contradictions inherent to single-issue and state-orientated political projects from the left. They also discuss Black nationalism, and put Anderson's book The Nation on No Map in conversation with Anarchism and the Black Revolution. This episode of ‘Anarchist Essays' was supported by a grant from The Lipman-Miliband Trust Anarchist Essays is brought to you by Loughborough University's Anarchism Research Group. Follow us on Twitter @arglboro Artwork by Sam G.

Negli USA sta esplodendo la Black Revolution. La lotta per i diritti dei neri si fa sempre più accesa e si cominciano a vedere i risultati. Ma non per Cassius Marcellus Clay, pugile che vince la medaglia d'oro alle Olimpiadi di Roma del 1960, ma sconta ugualmente al ritorno in patria la discriminazione più ignobile. Così, quando pochi anni dopo diventa campione mondiale dei massimi, stupisce il mondo dichiarando di essere diventato membro dei “Musulmani neri” e di aver cambiato il proprio nome in Mohammed Alì. Ma il problema non è solo quello. Il suo modo di boxare è altrettanto sconvolgente: danza sul ring con eleganza da ballerino, si muove velocissimo, evita la maggior parte dei colpi. Anche la sua è una vera rivoluzione. I giornalisti lo criticano. E quando poi si rifiuta di rispondere alla chiamata alle armi in Vietnam, l'America perbenista gli volta definitivamente le spalle. Viene condannato per renitenza alla leva e perde la cintura di campione. Non potrà combattere per due anni. Sembra finito. Ma non è finito.

I had the absolute privilege of interviewing had the absolute privilege of interviewing Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin on the rerelease of his seminal book ‘Anarchism and the Black Revolution' by Pluto Press. In this interview, we discuss the misrepresentation of anarchism, the importance of grassroots organisation and the challenges of maintaining optimism in struggle. Lorenzo is an encyclopaedia of our recent struggles. The 1 hour and 44 minutes spent with him will forever influence my criticism of the institutions and omnipresent forces of power around us - for article I urge everyone to go and buy his book. He imparts much wisdom and urges us to think more critically of the conditions we find (or have created) for ourselves. SUBSCRIBE!

Nikki Giovanni was born Yolanda Cornelius Giovanni Jr. on June 7, 1943 in Knoxville, Tennessee. She is one of the world's most well-known African-American poets. Her work includes poetry anthologies, poetry recordings, and nonfiction essays, and covers topics ranging from race to social issues. She has won numerous awards including the Langston Hughes medal and the NAACP image award. She's been nominated for a Grammy award for her poetry album, the Nikki Giovanni poetry collection. Additionally, she has been named as one of Oprah Winfrey‘s 25 living legends. Giovanni gained fame in the late 1960s as one of the prevalent authors of the black arts movement. Influenced by the civil rights movement and black power movement of the period, her early work provides a strong, militant African-American perspective, leading one writer to dub her as the poet of the Black Revolution. . During the 1970s, she began writing children's books and later co-founded a publishing company to open the door for other minority authors. She's worked at several universities and at the time of this podcast, is a distinguished professor at Virginia Tech. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/katherine-hutchinson-hayes/support

In this episode we speak with veteran of the Black Panther Party, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, and co-founder of the Black Autonomy Federation Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin. A former long-time political prisoner, we talk to Ervin about the recent release of the definitive edition of his book Anarchism and the Black Revolution on Pluto Press. Anarchism and the Black Revolution was written during Ervin's political imprisonment, and is considered a foundational text for Black Anarchist traditions. We talk to Ervin about what he drew out of his experiences with SNCC and the Black Panther Party that contributes to his understandings of Black Anarchism or Black Autonomy. We ask about the circumstances that led to his political imprisonment, and critiques of state socialism. Ervin also shares reflections on his political mentor Martin Sostre.  Ervin discusses the sit-in movement as a form of autonomous action taking up by the youth in the 60's, which he describes as oppositional to both the establishment and the politics of major civil rights organizations at the time. In conversation Ervin also pushes back against notions of chaos, disorganization, individualism, and nihilism that are often associated with anarchism, and which some folks identifying themselves as anarchists take up. In contrast Ervin provides concrete explanations of the types of mass organizing he believes Black Anarchists should be engaged in, in the development of their own struggle.  Ervin discusses the subversive trap of electoral politics. We also ask about fascism, anti-fascism, dual power and problems with unaccountable leadership and celebrity as well as what differentiates a political revolution from a social revolution.  If you've never read Anarchism and the Black Revolution or want this new definitive edition which includes new sections, a new introduction, a recent interview  and new Forwards from Joy James and William C. Anderson, you can grab that on Plutobooks.com. If you would like to learn more about Black Autonomy from Lorenzo along with his partner Jo'Nina Ervin and William C. Anderson, check out their work at the Black Autonomy Podcast.  Black Autonomy Podcast has a patreon of its own which benefits Lorenzo and JoNina, we encourage folks to support them directly.  And as always if you like what we do, and want to sustain our ability to continue to do this work please become a patron of our show on patreon if you are able to do so.

Australia's National Party, the junior member of the governing Liberal-National Party coalition, has given its blessing to a net-zero 2050 target and Greens leader, Adam Bandt, has been seriously critical of that decision, making his views about that quite clear on Radio National earlier today.

Lorenzo Kom' Boa Ervin ANARCHISM AND THE BLACK REVOLUTION-Black Panther Party For Self Defense A powerful – even startling – book that challenges the shibboleths of 'white' anarchism'. Its analysis of police violence and the threat of fascism are as important now as they were at the end of the 1970s. Perhaps more so' - Peter James Hudson, Black Agenda Report Anarchism and the Black Revolution first connected Black radical thought to anarchist theory in 1979. Now amidst a rising tide of Black political organizing, this foundational classic written by a key figure of the Civil Rights movement is republished with a wealth of original material for a new generation. Anarchist theory has long suffered from a whiteness problem. This book places its critique of both capitalism and racism firmly at the center of the text. Making a powerful case for the building of a Black revolutionary movement that rejects sexism, homophobia, militarism and racism, Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin counters the lies and distortions about anarchism spread by its left- and right-wing opponents alike.

Black Revolution

This episode we are joined by special guests Zena Smith & Mr. 365 ( Wife & Best Friend of the late talented mke artist Rob Smith ) as we tackle the topic of violence amongst the black community in Milwaukee.

Welcome to March Madness! This month you will be hearing from different friends about various topics. To kick off March Madness, we have KJ Gregory on the mic to talk about Black Revolution. We did it Joe!! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

As Black History Month ends and Women’s History Month begins, we wanted to honor a pioneer in the struggle for equal rights for both movements.Shirley Anita Chisholm was a politician, educator, activist, community organizer and author.Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1924, as a child during the Great Depression - while her parents struggled to make ends meet - young Shirley and her two sisters were sent to Barbados to live with their Grandmother. Long before the Civil Rights movement in the United States, youngShirley watched as her community advocated for their rights as she witnessed the Barbados workers' and anti-colonial independence movements. Chisholm would later say about her time on Barbados with her Grandmother: “Granny gave me strength, dignity, and love. I learned from an early age that I was somebody. I didn't need the Black Revolution to tell me that."In 1964, after nearly two decades as an educator and community activist, Chisholm ran for and was elected to the New York State Assembly.Even within the New York Democratic Party, Shirley Chisholm had faced resistance to candidacy based on her sex - so she took hercampaign directly to women, using her role as Brooklyn branch president of Key Women of America to mobilize female voters.Four years later - in 1968, Shirley Chisholm became the first Black woman elected to the United States Congress, representing New York's 12th congressional district for seven terms from 1969 to 1983. Her 1968 congressional campaign slogan was "Unbought and Unbossed" - which later became the title of her memoir and adocumentary film on her amazing life. On January 25, 1972, in a Baptist church in her district in Brooklyn - Shirley Chisholm became the first African-American candidate for a major party's nomination for President of the United States, and the first woman to run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.In her presidential announcement - she called for a "bloodless revolution" at the forthcoming Democratic nominating convention and described herself as representative of the people offering a new articulation of American identity: "I am not the candidate of Black America, although I am black and proud. I am not the candidate of the women's movement of this country, although I am a woman and equally proud of that. I am the candidate of the people and my presence before you, symbolizes a new era in American political history."Let’s listen to Civil Rights and Women’s Rights Pioneer Shirley Chisholm announce her candidacy for President of the United States.

We are continuing to mirror Black Autonomy Podcast on our feed ... This episode of Black Autonomy discusses building a poor people's survival movement to mobilize the multi-racial masses of working class and poor people around immediate needs while building towards revolution.  JoNina Abron-Ervin is a former editor of The Black Panther newspaper, author of Driven by the Movement: Activists of the Black Power Era, and a co-founder of the Black Autonomy Federation. Lorenzo Komboa Ervin is the author of Anarchism and the Black Revolution, a co-founder of the Black Autonomy Federation, and a former member of the Black Panther Party.

Read by Phillip Agnew and introduced by historian Roberta Gold. Born in 1923, Jesse Gray made his name in the 1960s as the organizer of the Harlem rent strikes. Involving over 100 buildings, the strikes achieved numerous concessions from the mayor (including the imprisonment of one landlord), but it was Gray's militant tactics that dominated the newspapers, such as his encouraging of tenants to bring live rats into housing court. These experiences led Gray to help create the Federation for Independent Political Action, a Black political group. It was at their founding conference in December 1964 that Jesse Gray gave the keynote address, “The Black Revolution: A Struggle for Political Power.” Found in the archives at the Schomburg Center, this is the first time the speech has been reproduced in full. “We've had sit-ins, wade-ins, walk-ins, sleep-ins... and let us just refer to it as the ‘ins.' The ‘ins' in my opinion have just about reached an impasse. They have reached an impasse because they have not moved the Black masses. They have failed to move the Black masses because these movements have not reflected their basic needs; rather just the aspirations of the Black middle class—doctors, lawyers, and others who have removed themselves from the masses of the Black ghetto, for whom the concept of equality and integration is a means for their own escape. They still hold the Black masses of the ghetto in contempt.” — Jesse Gray, 1964

From Below podcast will continue to mirror episodes of the Black Autonomy podcast ... Dual power can be explained as the building of a transitional program for political, social, and economic transformation. It creates survival programs to oppose state power and creates a new type of autonomous public sector when the state fails the people. This is how to go beyond protest to building an anarchist societal infrastructure.  JoNina Abron-Ervin is a former editor of The Black Panther newspaper, author of Driven by the Movement: Activists of the Black Power Era, and a co-founder of the Black Autonomy Federation.

For more than fifty years, Nikki Giovanni's poetry has dazzled and inspired readers. As sharp and outspoken as ever, she has published a new book of poetry and prose, MAKE ME RAIN. In MAKE ME RAIN, she calls attention to injustice and racism, celebrates Black culture and Black lives, and and give readers an unfiltered look into her own experiences. In our wide ranging interview, Giovanni read some of her poetry, discussed an amazing conversation she had with James Baldwin in 1971 that was taped for the public TV show Soul!, and weighed in on having front porch conversations versus interaction over the internet.Nikki Giovanni gained initial fame in the late 1960s as one of the foremost authors of the Black Arts Movement. Influenced by the Civil Rights Movement and Black Power Movement of the period, her early work provides a strong, militant African-American perspective, leading one writer to dub her the "Poet of the Black Revolution.”A seven-time NAACP Image Award winner Giovanni is the author of twenty-eight books and the University Distinguished Professor of English at Virginia Tech.

For more info check out: https://www.3books.co Chapter Description: Happy Blue Moon and Happy Halloween everyone! A singular lunar event is fitting for the release of my next chapter with the venerable Nikki Giovanni. Do you know Nikki? I’m a bit ashamed to admit I didn’t until I came across her wonderful children’s book, Rosa (on American civil rights activist Rosa Parks), which I read to my kids and loved. After Apurna called 1-833-READ-A-LOT in the End of the Podcast Club in Chapter 59 and suggested Nikki as a guest, I watched her TED Talk, read some of her poems and watched a captivating interview she did with James Baldwin back in 1971.  And then I reached out to her and she graciously accepted to be interviewed for 3 Books.  Nikki Giovanni was born in 1943 and is an American poet, writer, commentator, activist and educator. Wikipedia says she is one of the world’s best known African American poets. I think she’s one of the world’s best known poets, period! (Why do we always hedge it??) She is prolific and deeply introspective throughout her poetry, anthologies, recordings and nonfiction essays on topics ranging from race, to social issues, to children’s issues. She was nominated for a Grammy and was named one of Oprah Winfrey’s 25 Living Legends for her prominence in the 1960s Black Arts Movement and as a defender of both the Civil Rights and Black Power Movements. She’s been dubbed “The Poet of the Black Revolution” for her strong militant perspective. Today, at 77, she is a distinguished professor at Virginia Tech where she still teaches and mentors students to help them find their voices. And it is from her very office that she dialled in to chat with me. Listen in as we discuss the true meaning of activism, the true meaning of community, why it is important to hate (yes hate!), and to share what she believes is the best thing to do when you get up in the morning. And of course we get into her 3 most formative books.  I am honored and humbled to bring you this lively conversation with the eminent Nikki Giovanni. Let’s go! What You'll Learn: How can we be better at being alone? What is a mirror check in? How does poetry give us hope? How can we learn to write poetry? How was the first black show Soul started on TV? Why was Nikki’s interview of James Baldwin a cultural turning point for the Black community? Why is forgiveness overrated? How can we hate productively? Why is it a good idea to be old? What was it like seeing a movie during segregation? What still needs to be done to combat racism? What is the link between abortion and capital punishment?

Anarchists and anti-fascists in general, and CrimethInc. in particular, have been the focus of intense hostile government and right-wing attention and censorship efforts in recent weeks. The latest salvo comes from the New York Times, which on June 30th published “The Truth About Today's Anarchists,” drawing on conspiracy theorists and right-wing talking points to argue that violent anarchists are somehow controlling the ongoing countrywide protests, but don't actually care about Black lives. The article actually calls out The Ex-Worker Podcast by name! While we're flattered for the attention—who knew we were such a threat?—the article is both inaccurate and dangerous; more importantly, it touches on critical issues about today's movements for liberation that we need to clarify. So in this episode, the Ex-Worker lays out the truth about “The Truth About Today's Anarchists”, refuting the article's bogus claims one by one, and offering a more accurate perspective on the relationships between anarchists and the ongoing movement to end white supremacy and police violence. We conclude with an audio version of an article we published with Agency in June called This Is Anarchy: Eight Ways the Black Lives Matter and Justice for George Floyd Protests Reflect Anarchist Ideas in Action. This episode challenges the myths and distortions about anarchism offered across the spectrum from Trump to the New York Times to provide insight into what anarchists today are really fighting for. {October 5, 2020}   -------SHOW NOTES------   Table of Contents: Introduction {0:01} The Truth About ‘The Truth About Today's Anarchists': The Ex-Worker Responds to the New York Times {6:21} This Is Anarchy: Eight Ways the Black Lives Matter and Justice for George Floyd Protests Reflect Anarchist Ideas in Action {40:52} Conclusion {1:02:15} This episode focuses on our response to the wretched New York Times opinion piece “The Truth About Today's Anarchists” by Farah Stockman. We published our rebuttal the following day as “The Truth About ‘The Truth About Today's Anarchists': The Ex-Worker Responds to the New York Times.” Our colleagues at It's Going Down have published a lengthy thread going into many of the specific problems with amateur conspiracy theorist Jeremy Lee Quinn's reporting (which is Stockman's main source) in detail, if you want to dig deeper. For a laugh, you can also check out the appallingly bad Network Contagion Research Institute report “NETWORK-ENABLED ANARCHY: How Militant Anarcho-Socialist Networks Use Social Media to Instigate Widespread Violence Against Political Opponents and Law Enforcement”—which Stockman also uncritically promotes. To offer a different perspective on anarchist participation in the Black Lives Matter rebellions of the past months, we've also included an audio version of a piece co-published with Agency back in June, “This Is Anarchy: Eight Ways the Black Lives Matter and Justice for George Floyd Protests Reflect Anarchist Ideas in Action.” To read our own account of how the uprising spread and why the authorities themselves were chiefly responsible for the widespread adoption of confrontational tactics, check out the CrimethInc. article “Snapshots from the Uprising.” If you want to know more about what anarchists believe and desire, start with To Change Everything: An Anarchist Appeal. On Facebook's decision to ban and censor anarchist pages, including CrimethInc.'s, check out our response, “On Facebook Banning Pages Associated with Anarchism, and the Digital Censorshop to Come.” Also check out the open letter of support signed by hundreds of publuishers, journalists, educators, and activists to show solidarity. Also check out media projects like It's Going Down, who've also been under heavy fire from the right wing, as well as The Final Straw, Rebel Steps, and all the other excellent podcasts from the Channel Zero Network. You can find a reference to CrimethInc. around {2:50:46} during the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on “Protecting Speech by Stopping Anarchist Violence”, during testimony by one Kyle Shideler, a staffer for the Center for Security Policy—an anti-Muslim hate group, according to watchdog organizations, moonlighting as experts on violent left-wing extremism. For more information on Black anarchism, check out Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin's Anarchism and the Black Revolution, the recent Anarkata Statement, Vanessa Taylor's excellent Mic.com article “How Black Anarchists Are Keeping the Protest Movement Alive,” and the recent AK Press books As Black As Resistance: Finding the Conditions for Liberation by Zoe Samudzi and William Anderson and *Anarcho-Blackness: Notes Toward a Black Anarchism by Marquis Bey. For an articulate portrayal of exactly why government elites and right-wing authoritarians feel so threatened by us these days, check out the recent essay “Why Anarchism Is Dangerous.”

"You can kill a revolutionary but you cant kill the revolution"Let's explore this statement and how we need to continue the revolution no matter what. As casualties continue to surface unfortunately we need to focus on how to get better within ourselves and the outside world. We do have a spoken word poem by King Mania and we discuss the demonetization of black men. Listen & Share!!!! New episodes every Friday

Lorenzo Kom' Boa Ervin ANARCHISM AND THE BLACK REVOLUTION-Black Panther Party For Self Defense

Lorenzo Kom' Boa Ervin ANARCHISM AND THE BLACK REVOLUTION-Black Panther Party For Self Defense

The Black American has endured over 400 years of slavery, oppression, and subjugation. A race of people raped and murdered for the color of their skin and the history behind it. We've marched, voted, lobbied and petitioned, but to no avail. We've become a laughing stock of the country and of the world. The Black Revolution (if it could even be considered that) is no revolution at all. Never in the history of rebellion has a people fought back against their oppressors via nonviolent means. The Black Revolution is the first. Which is why it's taking so long for us to find freedom. Through recent events, nationwide protests and the responses to them, a question has popped into my head: Where do we go from here?

Listen to the Sun. July 12, 2020 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the address by President Cyril Ramaphosa of the Republic of South Africa on the escalation in COVID-19 cases; the World Health Organization (WHO) has reported on the rapid climb in coronavirus infections internationally; Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms has openly disagreed with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp on the handling of the pandemic; and the education crisis in the United States is mounting as the White House is attempting force schools to re-open. In the second hour we look back on the 53rd anniversary of the beginning of the Newark Rebellion of 1967 in light the current unrest in the aftermath of the police execution of George Floyd in Minneapolis. We also review the historic National Conference for a United Front Against Fascism held in Oakland, California in July 1969 organized by the Black Panther Party. Finally, we rebroadcast an important address delivered by African American playwright Lorraine Hansberry on June 15, 1964 at a Town Hall meeting held in New York City entitled "The Black Revolution and the White Backlash."

This is a truly fascinating conversation w. Academic Ruodi Duan of Harvard University on the once thriving solidarity between global black radicals and China under Mao. We discuss the history of this solidarity in the context of the USSR-China Split, how black revolutionaries such as Huey Newton, W.E.B Du Bois, Vicky Garvin, Robert Williams and others collaborated with Mao's China, and how eventually this solidarity came undone as China's statecraft and capital became more important to nation-building than solidarity with black radicals. We cover a great deal of ground in this conversation between Mao, Zhou Enlai, The Black Panthers, The NAACP, Angola, The Sino-Soviet Split, Nixon, Amiri Baraka , Xi Jinping, China's relationship with Africa today, and the current injustices and imperialism being committed by Xi's China. Ruodi is an excellent teacher and you'll learn more in this podcast than most people do in an entire semester!

The short-lived experiment that is/was the CHAZ in Seattle is just one of three avenues of attack against the Trump administration being pursued in the first Real U.S. Civil War. This is the Black Revolution, cut from the same mold as previous Orange, Violet, Green and Brown revolutions in Eurasia and North Africa.So while the CHAZ will end with a whimper it will also fail falling forward as newly-minted Antifa radicals will be created when the police roll in. We're staring at future powder kegs when the verdicts are handed down for the police officers involved in both George Floyd's and Rayshard Brooks' deaths.And the election will not be decided by votes, but rather protests and the potential is high for a coup orchestrated from the streets of Washington D.C. in the next six to nine months.Show Notes:Is the CHAZ the new Maidan?https://tomluongo.me/2020/06/22/chaz-setup-next-maidan/Black is the New Black in Color Revolutionshttps://tomluongo.me/2020/06/21/black-new-black-in-color-revolutions/Crimea: The Way Back Homehttps://youtu.be/nbGhKfWrfOQ

Protested for the 1st time last week & it was a humbling experience. Marching together & unifying as a black race was very inspirational. It showed me how much more I need to do for my community & how much power we have united together than we do alone. The hood came out & protested & that made a huge difference. Today I talk deeper into my protest experience, opinions on riots, Black Tuesday, rebuilding black Wall Street & the new age of THE BLACK REVOLUTION. As the final episode of this season I wanted to go out wit a bang. Much more to come --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dacandyshop/message

Do you suffer from the psychosis of whiteness? What is the politics of Blackness? These are just some of the questions Kehinde Andrews makes us think about during this episode. Honest questions, brutal truths and solutions that could potentially change the world for the better, for everyone.

The Black Revolution of Change will never happen as long as we have this thing called Social Media which has become a pacifier and speed bump to any real movement toward Black Liberation. We have some of the most brilliant Black Minds on Social Media but our egos have gotten in the way of progress because we have become content just to receive a share, like or thumbs up! It's time for some real action and the brilliant YouTube Social Talking Heads aren't the people to make it happen. ALL TALK AND NO ACTION! You must network with those who are not quarantined and trapped in the social media addiction and pool your resources for the time when the internet is snatched from everyone and the New World Order goes into effect. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/lancescurv/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/lancescurv/support

In this special bonus episode, we present a conversation between True Leap Press and Lorenzo Ervin and JoNina Abron-Ervin, recorded in Chicago earlier last month. Lorenzo Kom’boa Ervin is an anarchist writer, organizer, and former political prisoner who came up through the Black Panther Party in the 1960’s. Among other works, he is the author of the pamphlet “Anarchism and the Black Revolution”, which introduces the principles of class struggle anarchism and discusses its relevance to the black liberation struggle. JoNina Abron-Ervin is a journalist, retired educator, and a former member of the Detroit chapter of the Black Panther Party. As a writer, teacher and organizer, she has helped organize numerous efforts over the course of decades, including the anti-apartheid movement and campaigns against police terror. She is the author of the book “Driven by Movement: Activists of the Black Power Era”. In this timely interview, Lorenzo and JoNina discuss the current anti-fascist movement, its limitations, and how it could evolve to challenge the carceral state, white supremacy, and capitalist exploitation more explicitly.

Peace ya’ll, me (Justin and the Honored None) and Antonio (@StorytellerTone) decided to double up this week because of course, we wanted to get our takes off about Black Panther. We’ll be back next week with our first guest of the season(and ever!!), but for now, we chat about the brilliance of Ryan Coogler and the Women of Wakanda(1:23). We get into the film’s fit in the Marvel Universe(10:57), Ludwig’s score and other touches that enhanced the ‘world’ of Wakanda(16:49). From here, we talk about Killmonger and the role of violence and rage in Black Revolution(24:57), my annoyance with the fetishization of black trauma(32:08), and the importance of supporting our causes with money(35:47). We close out by talking black superheroes(38:02), the value of representation(41:32) and making change by redirecting the Black dollar(46:05).

Crowdfunding is a game changer...but we have to use it effectively. And when used effectively, crowdfunding becomes a critical tool for making Black lives matter in America. It's time to take matters into our own hands and stop waiting. I've identified three steps you can take to begin making Black Lives Matter. You can check it out for free here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8y5qG_AmaQI Crowdfunding is critical because one of the biggest justifications for racial disparity is access to resources. You've heard that excuse right? When it comes to schools, the solution is more resources. In quality healthcare, the cry is for more resources. When community services don't serve, the complaint is that there aren't enough resources. There's never enough resources, and resources seem to always be the solution to the problems we face. So, the question becomes: if resources are the solution and there's never enough resources, how will anything get solved? Crowdfunding Gives Us Leverage Because of social media and connectivity, we have the potential to access greater capital than ever before. In this episode, I speak with America's crowdfunding expert: Dr. Letita Wright. She'll share her do's and don'ts for organizing a successful crowdfunding campaign. Want to know the biggest mistake that causes crowdfunding campaigns to fail? Learn the steps you need to implement in order to make your crowdfunding campaign successful.

We know you've been on the edge of your seat, waiting for see which candidate will receive the Ex-Worker's endorsement for president this year. In Episode 52, we offer an Ex-Voter's guide to the 2016 election, including an analysis of the risks we anticipate in its aftermath titled After the Election, the Reaction. There's lots of listener feedback to discuss, including advice for a young anarchist on less illegal or risky forms of anarchist action, updates about conflict between the Turkish state and the forces of Rojava, and a nuanced discussion of what “solidarity” really means, or should mean, in concrete terms. On the Chopping Block, we undertake a work of fiction for the first time, Nanni Balestrini's Vogliamo Tutto, or We Want Everything. There's also an announcement about some upcoming CrimethInc. developments, along with prisoner birthdays and more. We released this episode in tandem with an audio zine exploring anarchist critiques of voting, elections, and representative democracy, which you can download as Episode 51. {November 7, 2016}   -------SHOW NOTES------   Our discussion of the 2016 Presidential election and its likely aftermath centered around After the Election, the Reaction, the recently published text from the CrimethInc. blog. It also included clips from Wavy Gravy, George Carlin, the Las Vegas Trump/Clinton debate, Trump's advisor Roger Stone, and Public Enemy. On the Chopping Block, we reviewed Vogliamo Tutto, or We Want Everything, by Nanni Balestrini. In our listener feedback discussions, we mentioned a wide range of less-risky ways to get involved, including organizing Really Really Free Markets, helping start a Solidarity Network, researching polluters and prison profiteers like CCA, the Geo Group, Enbridge, and VINCI, learning about electronic security and encryption and how to beat surveillance, screening video from SubMedia, raising money for political prisoners, solidarity groups in Rojava, or the occupation resisting the Dakota Access Pipeline, and lots more. We also referred to writings by anarchist people of color and writings about black anarchism, such as the work of Ashanti Alston, Black Anarchism: A Reader, Anarchism and the Black Revolution by Lorenzo Kom'boa Ervin, Anarchy Can't Fight Alone and other writings by Kuwasi Balagoon, African Anarchism by Sam Mbah](https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/march–2012-interview-with-sam-mbah), Anarchist People of Color (APOC), and the zine Our Culture, Our Resistance. In our discussion of Turkey and Rojava, we mentioned this grim picture of the city of Nusaybin from occupied northern Kurdistan. The Noam Chomsky excerpt came from the 2001 CD “An American Addiction.” In our discussion of solidarity, we referred to Gabriel Kuhn's book Turning Money into Rebellion on solidarity-motivated Danish communist bank robbers - also check out the interview with Gabriel about the book on the Stand Up Fight Back podcast (their website is down, but you can find it via iTunes). We also mentioned our discussion of radical martyrs and martyrdom in Episode 50, Rojava Solidarity NYC, the Weather Underground, the George Jackson Brigade, Luciano “Tortuga” Pitronello's prison letters - we reviewed them in Episode 5, and interviewed Tortuga in Episode 30 - Oso Blanco, and the Phoenix Project.

Guest: Lorenzo Kom' Boa ErvinANARCHISM AND THE BLACK REVOLUTION-Black Panther Party For Self DefenseLorenzo Kom'boa Ervin (born 1947) is an American writer, activist, and black anarchist. He is a former member of the Black Panther Party. He was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and has lived in Memphis, Tennessee, since 2010.When he was 12, Ervin joined the NAACP youth group and participated in the sit-in protests that helped end racial segregation in Chattanooga. He was drafted during the Vietnam War and served in the army for two years, where he became an anti-war activist. In 1967 he joined the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee and, a short time later, the Black Panther Party.In February 1969, Ervin hijacked a plane to Cuba to evade prosecution for allegedly trying to kill a Ku Klux Klan leader. While in Cuba and Czechoslovakia, Ervin became disillusioned with state socialism. After several unsuccessful attempts, the American government eventually extradited Ervin and brought him to the U.S. to face trial. Ervin was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.Ervin first learned about anarchism while in prison in the late 1970s. He read numerous anarchist books, and his case was adopted by the Anarchist Black Cross, a political prisoner support organization. While in prison, Ervin wrote several anarchist pamphlets, including Anarchism and the Black Revolution, which has been reprinted many times and may be his best-known work.Eventually, Ervin's legal challenges and an international campaign led to his release from prison after 15 years.Please SUBSCRIBE!!!!

In January of 1969, WCBS-TV in New York City began to broadcast a series of half-hour lectures under the banner of Black Heritage: A History of Afro-Americans. The series, which ran six days a week until June of 1969 (108 episodes in all), was produced by historians John Henrik Clarke, Vincent Harding and political scientist William Strickland—the later two who were founding members of the Institute of the Black World, a groundbreaking thinking tank that was based at the Atlanta University Center. According to historian Martha Biondi, by providing “ordinary Americans access to the Black history courses beginning to be offered on college campuses…these men personally bridged the gap between scholarship and activism.” Left of Black is proud to be of the many progeny of this visionary project, born during an era in which Black student activism on American college campuses helped transform institutions that less than a generation earlier, Black students were largely denied access to. This moment is chronicled in Martha Biondi’s new book The Black Revolution on Campus (University of California Press). A historian at Northwestern University, Biondi joins Left of Black via Skype to talk about what she describes as “an extraordinary chapter in the modern Black freedom struggle.” Biondi is also the author of To Stand and Fight: the Struggle for Civil Rights in Postwar New York City (Harvard University Press, 2003).
