The Black Is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations will mark its tenth anniversary with a march on the White House and national conference under the banner, “Turn Imperialist Wars Into Wars Against Imperialism.” Although Donald Trump and Barack Obama are very different presidents, the enemy remains the same: US imperialism, says Coalition chairman Omali Yeshitela. “It’s necessary, not just to simply protest and condemn what the US government is doing, but to open up new fronts of struggle here in the United States,” said Yeshitela.
