Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression To Go National – Again – at Chicago Conference
Black Agenda Radio with Nellie Bailey and Glen Ford
28 Oct 2019

The Chicago-based activist organization will host a “re-founding” conference, November 22 to 24, to re-establish the national presence that was dissolved, decades ago. Alliance field director Frank Chapman said Angela Davis, an original founder, will speak, “but the overwhelming majority of the people who will be there will be young people, most of whom were not even born when the Alliance was founded” in 1973. “We’re going to build continuity in struggle, and pass it on to the next generation,” said Chapman.
