TIME FOR A "SPECIAL SESSION" OF

THE U.N . GENERAL ASSEMBLY

The governments of Britain, France and the United States of America are in the process of committing a terrible crime against the nation and people of Libya, and they are doing it in the names of all of us - the citizens of all the countries that are members of the United Nations (UN)!

The latest and most compelling evidence of this crime emerged last Thursday, when President Barack Obama , Prime Minister David Cameron and President Nic

My name is Sundiata Acoli (Soon-dee-AH’-tah  Ah-COH’-lee). I’m a former member of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army (BPP/BLA) who was captured on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973 and am now a Black Political Prisoner and Prisoner of War (PP/POW) who’s been held by the government for the last 37 years.

How long will the Black community continue to allow the Obama administration and the Democratic Party to insult them and then blame it on Obama not wanting to be perceived as a “Black” president?

Let me give an example.  You have invested in a business project, Obama Inc.

 

There were 4 classes of investors:  class W, which comprised 74% of the total stock; class B, which comprised 13% of the total stock, class H, which comprised 9% of the total stock; and class G, wh

America--Get Ready for Revolution


It should be clear to any blind man, or any deaf and dumb person that dissatisfaction brings change. Surely, it is only a matter of time when the dispossessed Americans shall rise up to overthrow the greedy corporate-global finance, military complex of blood suckers who have stolen the basic wealth of Americans to satisfy the greedy scoundrels who will perpetuate and defend white supremacy to the bitter e

The value of Culture.

Dr. Marimba Ani ~

All people, all over the world, throughout history have shared in common the fact that they belong to a culture of origin. That is a universal reality. Another equally important universal reality is that there are many, many different cultures in the world and each of them is unique.

The uniqueness of a culture is what gives specialness to its members. The members of a culture are bonded together by their shared culture, which gives them a sense of collective identity.

Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq and now Libya.. Ongoing wars and a blank check written for spending. Military hardware manufacturers must feel like they’ve died and gone to capitalist heaven….

That is… the war for the lives of A Generation of Black men living (and dying)

President Obama promised "change" to the people who voted for him.  He told them to hope again and that change would come.  But President Obama's change is really more of the same.  Therefore, his elixir that was sold to the world was nothing more than snake oil.  The most damage, of course, is being done to those whose dreams were intricately woven into his words, not realizing that words are not policy.  In a most deadly treachery, those who belie

Like Hamlet, I hesitated for weeks trying to decide whether I should attend the murder trial of Oakland Post Editor Chauncey Bailey, my friend and colleague who was assassinated by other friends of mine.
