Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to this edtion of the Pan-African Journal hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. We bring to you our regular PANW dispatches with reports on the continuing war in Somalia where the Al-Shabaab movement has overrun an African Union Mission to Somalia (AMISOM) base and retaken two towns from the United States backed forces within AMISOM and the federal government; an attack in the Egyptian Sinai has resulted in the wounding of six people including two Americans; Yemen resistance forces among the Ansurallah (Houthis) have killed over 50 soliders from the US-backed Saudi-GCC Coalition coming from the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, two of Washington's outpost in the Persian Gulf; and the Russian government has enhanced its support for the Syrian people by sending additional military advisers and a further exposure of the use of chemical weapons by ISIS and other counter-revolutionary forces backed by the imperialists inside the Middle Eastern state. In the second and third hours we begin a month-long focus on the history of race relations in the US with a rare archival audio file of the coverage of the funeral of Dr. W.E.B. Du Bois in Accra, Ghana in Aug. 1963 by the Ghana Broadcasting Corporation. Finally we rebroadcast a roundtable discussion on the much hidden 150th anniversary of the conclusion of the US Civil War and the beginning of the efforts to construct a democratic political system.
