Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Mon. Oct. 28, 2019 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 movement within Africa to remove sanctions against Zimbabwe; the Russia-Africa Summit was held last week in the Black Sea resort of Sochi where many African Union (AU) member-states attended at the invitation of Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin; the Syrian military has engaged Turkish forces in the north of the country; and Sudanese women are demanding equal rights within the context of the new political dispensation. In the second hour we will listen to the proceedings of a landmark case heard on Oct. 24 in the Sixth Circuit of Appeals in Cincinnati, Ohio where Detroit students, parents and community people have taken legal action against the State of Michigan for the failure to teach proper literacy skills in the education system. Finally we look back on an interview with legendary African American novelist, essayist, playwright, social activist and public intellectual James Arthur Baldwin.
