Black Agenda Radio · Black Agenda Radio May 8, 2026

In this week’s segment, we discuss a military attack carried out by Western-backed insurgents against the African nation Mali and the imperialist attempt to destabilize the Alliance of Sahel States. But we begin with an analysis of the Supreme Court decision Louisiana v. Callais, which ended the creation of majority-minority congressional districts, and we hear about Louisiana’s role in the history of Black electoral politics.
