PAST ISSUES refers to the past weekly
issues of this publication, Black Agenda Report. Links to the
articles in each of our past issues can be found on this page.
In addition, links to the articles in the previous four issues
can be found in the bottom right hand column of every issue,
and every article in any issue.
ARCHIVES refers to the work of Bruce
Dixon, Glen Ford, Margaret Kimberley and Leutisha Stills which
appeared originally in Black
Commentator, an enterprise that BAR's Glen Ford co-founded
and edited until August 2006. Before making our internet home
at Black Agenda Report, Glen Ford, Bruce Dixon, Margaret
Kimberley and Leutisha Stills of CBC Monitor, published much
of our work there.
Since the index page for Black Commentator's back
issues can’t be accessed without a $50 subscription, we
here present our own index to what is and remains our own work over there. Gradually we will get around to housing copies of all our past work which originally appeared in Black Commentator on this site.

AMERICAN GENOCIDE
When Columbus invaded America
there were more than 15 million native Americans
in what is now the U.S. By 1890 there were
300,000, a 97% death rate. Our nation sits on
the bones on one of the greatest genocides in
human history.

WHERE IS THE BLACK CHURCH ON
IRAQ?
African Americans
overwhelmingly oppose the war in IRaq, and have
done so since its beginning. 650,000 Iraqis are
now dead, compared to less than 3,000 Americans,
a ratio of 200 to 1. Why then, do we allow black
preachers in black churches to pray every Sunday
ONLY for the Americans “in harm's way” and not
for the other 99% of the dead, who are
Iraqis?.

MYTH OF THE MELTING POT
White Americans frequently
celebrate the US as a “Melting Pot”. The phrase
is actually taken from an early 20th century
play that lauds the US as a “melting pot” for it
called the “races” of Europe alone, transforming
them into what we now call “white” Americans.

WAR IS THE HEALTH OF THE STATE
America's leaders
need war, like vampires need blood. Even if it's
war on a noun.
In fact, in an era where
politicians create and exploit fear to stay in
power, the so-called “war on terror” is an
invaluable political tool, something they cannot
do without.
