This week we have one special guest, Omali Yeshitela. He is Chairman of the African Peoples Socialist Party (APSP) and leader of the Uhuru Movement and the Black is Back Coalition. The APSP Uhuru House was raided by the FBI in St. Petersburg, Florida along with the Uhuru Solidarity Center in St. Louis, Missouri.
The raids were conducted as part of the indictment of a Russian national accused of acting as a foreign agent in the U.S. But the FBI's actions are part of an old U.S. playbook targeting Black radical organizations which assert their rights to speak in opposition to U.S. policies domestically and internationally. Omali Yeshitela and the Uhuru Movement remain steadfast in defending the rights to free association and free assembly that Americans are supposed to have.
