Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to this 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 continuing fighting in and around Sirte in western Libya; the Tunisian President has requested Pentagon drone support in the targeting of Islamic State fighters on the border with Libya; the African Union will hold its first ever debate over the selection of the future AU Commission Chairperson; and President Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe has just returned to Harare after attending the 4th Africa-Arab Summit in Malabo, Equatorial Guinea. In the second hour we look at the case of political prisoner Leonard Peltier of the American Indian Movement (AIM). A campaign is ongoing to pressure United States President Barack Obama to grant clemency in his case. Also we feature two reports on the alliance between Africans and Indigenous people against American settlers in what became known as the Seminole Wars.
