Pan-African Journal: Special Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sun. Aug. 13, 2017 special edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the aftermath of the racist attacks on demonstrators in Charlottesville, Virginia where one person was killed and 20 injured when a neo-fascist drove his vehicle into anti-racist demonstrators; four people were killed by gunmen at a restaurant in Burkina Faso; South African President Jacob Zuma has indicated that disciplinary measures may be taken against ANC members who supported a parliamentary vote of no-confidence last week in Cape Town; and two United States troops were killed in a gun battle in northern Iraq. In the second hour we will honor the 91st birthday of the late Cuban President Fidel Castro Ruz. Finally, the legacy of Black August continues with an examination of the U.S. government's counter-intelligence program (COINTELPRO) directed against the African American liberation movement.
