Listen to the Sat. Dec. 9, 2017 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 ongoing demonstrations in Palestine and around the world condemning the declaration of United States President Donald Trump moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem; bombing attacks by the Gulf Cooperation Council against the Middle Eastern state of Yemen are continuing in the aftermath of the assassination of former President Ali Abdullah Saleh; the ruling ZANU-PF party in Zimbabwe is making preparations for the upcoming special congress to chart the course for the next year; and 15 United Nations Peacekeepers have been killed in the Democratic Republic of Congo. In the second hour of the program we look back at the 50th anniversary of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation Massey Lectures featuring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in December 1967. Then we pay tribute to the 50th anniversary of the death of African American rhythm and blues artist Otis Redding.
