Yesterday, across the U.S. headlines screamed that the “Duke Lacrosse Accuser”, “woman who falsely accused Duke Lacrosse Team” in the Huffington Post, The Washington Post, ABC News even the Boston Globe, the story actually made headlines in the UK –has been yet again arrested. It seems that that Crystal Mangum has been reduced to “that woman” “accuser” of the Duke Lacrosse Team. But who is ‘that woman” and why has she achieved such notoriety. Clearly, one who can displac

For a generation that has witnessed few genuine people's movements succeed in transforming the nation-states where they reside and engage in bottom up processes of social revolution, the popular uprisings in Africa (Tunisia, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco and Libya) and southwest Asia (Yemen, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Syria) have been very instructive. In the main what these movements reiterate is that "repression does indeed build resistance", although it may take a decades fo

Pimpin and Spirituality
by Marvin X, Prime Minister of Poetry
I am not a pimp. I am a hustler, sometimes a trick. A hustler waits for no one to bring his money, he gets his own. It is beneath his dignity to wait or depend on a woman or anyone to get his hustle going. All he needs is product, almost anything will do, even a roll of toilet paper he can hustle. But the pimp's thing is women, he considers himself their manager and they consider him the same, usually by mutual
I start from the basic premise that freedom is not an absolute. That is to say, one is not absolutely free, that there are obvious limits to our freedom seem unassailable. Simply put, our freedoms are limited to the extent that they impinge upon the freedom on another. Having said that, exactly what are these limits and what is the nature of these limits.

DEAR BLACK AMERICA 2011
Once again black people are first to discover and last to benefit. In 2006 a black man wrote a book called Undercover Smart. In that book he told us that the Spanish players were on the move and that by the year 2015 the Spanish players will absorb, deplete and eliminate the African Americans from the game.

Of course there is often a time lag in catching up with the one time revolutionaries who eventually discard their revolutionary garb to don the persona of the brutal dictator, president for life.

Crusader Hypocrisy in North Africa and the Middle East

As was discussed in earlier engagements with Pan Africanism, Pan Africanism’s purpose is the formation of a United States of Africa and for greater co-operation between the different peoples of the African Diaspora to be achieved. It is a dynamic political philosophy in the words of George Padmore designed to achieve social justice and human equality. In order to gain a deeper understanding of Pan Africanism, it is important to engage with its many sub-categories that have developed throughout

Two Movements" and "Notes on White Supremacy and Capitalism."
