Listen to the Sat. Aug. 8, 2020 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 recent meeting between leaders of the ruling parties of South African and Zimbabwe to discuss imperialist threats to their neighboring states; Zimbabwe has ordered governmental departments to operate at 15 percent capacity to limit the spread of COVID-19; an oil spill off the coast of Mauritius has contaminated large tracts of water and land resources; Mozambique has extended its state of emergency for another 30 days. In the second hour we continue our focus on Black August with an examination of the African Seminole Wars against enslavement and removal during the early 19th century. Finally, we present a World Health Organization (WHO) briefing by Director General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus discussing the global pandemic and efforts to mitigate the crisis.
