Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. Feb. 6, 2021 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 address by outgoing African Union (AU) chairperson, President Cyril Ramaphosa of the Republic of South Africa, saying the continent must rise to the challenge of defeating the COVID-19 pandemic; there are more political changes taking place inside the coalition government in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC); Somalian officials have failed to reach an agreement on the national elections; and the Federal Republic of Nigeria is banning the trading in cryptocurrencies inside the Africa's most populous state. In the second hour we continue our monthlong focus on African American History with a reexamination of the life, times and contributions of journalist, anti-lynching crusader and women rights organizer Ida B. Wells-Barnett. Finally, we listen to a review of the recently-released autobiography of journalist Alice Dunnigan through a recorded address at the Library of Congress.
