Pan-African Journal: Special Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. May 27, 2017 Pan-African Journal: Special 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 aftermath of Africa Liberation Day for this year commemorating the 54th anniversary of the Organization of African Unity (OAU) and the successor African Union (AU); the Zambia government has refused entry to South African right-wing opposition party leader who intended to attend the trial of an opponent of President Edgar Lungu; talks have been held between Guinean President Alpha Conde, the current Chairman of the AU and Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi; and the Egyptian airforce has conducted airstrikes against supposed terrorist camps in Derna in eastern Libya in response to the massacre of 28 Chrisitian in Minya province. In the second hour we look back at the origins of the national liberation struggles in Africa during the period extending from the 1950s to the 1980s. Finally, we continue our monthlong tribute to Malcolm X (El Hajj Malik Shabazz) reviewing several interviews and speeches during the last year of his life.
