Cops Colluded  with Trump Mob at Capitol

“If this had been a Black-led effort, it would have been a massacre,” said Mara Vanderheyden, co-founder of the Partnership for Civil Justice, which is demanding a “fully public” investigation into United States Capitol Police collusion with the mob that assaulted Congress, last week. “We can only conclude that this could not have happened if the Capitol Police had not allowed it to happen.”

Black Anarchists Prefer “Non-Hierarchical” Activism

Ebony “Sima Lee” Outlaw, the activist and Marooncast host based in Baltimore, was inspired by “Black anarchists who very much wanted to end imperialism, but chose to do so through a non-hierarchical methodology, and not necessarily by the central command vanguardism” of the Black Panther Party.

Black Feminism Informed by “Sensuous Knowledge”

Because of historical exclusion, “Black women’s social and political desires have always had to be shaped outside of the dogmatic and the normative – inside of the liminal, the fugitive and the imaginative.” said Minna Salami, the Nigierian-, Finnish- and Swedish-descended author of “Sensuous Knowledge: A Black Feminist Approach for Everyone.” Salami said this is especially true of iconic intellects Toni Morrison, Alice Walker and Winnie Mandela.

Black Agenda Radio on the Progressive Radio Network is hosted by Margaret Kimberley and Glen Ford. A new edition of the program airs every Monday at 11:am ET on PRN. Length: one hour.
