Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. June 18, 2022 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. This episode continues our commemoration of Black Music Month which began during the late 1970s. The program features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the conflicting stories about the status of potential negotiations between the Ethiopian government and the rebel TPLF; protests are ongoing in the Republic of Sudan demanding the removal of the military coup regime; there are reports that a soldier from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has been killed on the border with Rwanda; and several Moroccan women are revealing that they were abused by a French businessman. In the second and third hours we examine two legends within the field of African American music. John Coltrane has a legacy of innovation and sustained production which spanned two decades. Finally, we examine the life, times and contributions of Detroit Jazz Guitarist and composer Kenny Burrell.
