Anti-War Conference Welcomes Black Alliance for Peace

The United National Anti-War Coalition’s recent conference in Richmond, Virginia, featured the most Black participation and speakers in UNAC’s history. The theme of the conference was “Stop the Wars at Home and Abroad.” Black Agenda Radio presents excerpts of remarks by Charo Mina-Rojas, Ana Edwards, Maurice Carney, Glen Ford, Clarence Thomas, Ralph Poynter, Ajamu Baraka, Larry Hamm, Margaret Kimberley, and Jaribu Hill. UNAC welcomed the founding of a new affiliated organization, the Black Alliance for Peace.

Philly School Holds 3-Day Focus on James Baldwin

The Saturday Free School, a center of community organizing and transformative political thought and study, will celebrate the life of James Baldwin on July 7, 8 and 9, at Philadelphia’s historic Church of the Advocate. The legendary author, essayist and playwright, who died in 1987, “is one of the most important thinkers of our time,” said student and activist Elias Gonzales. His colleague, Kayla Watkins, explained: “We’re connecting Baldwin to Coltrane, we’re connecting Baldwin to Dubois.” Although Black historical movements are often viewed as separate, “in reality, different questions are posed in order to find the same solutions.”

Black Agenda Radio on the Progressive Radio Network is hosted by Glen Ford and Nellie Bailey. A new edition of the program airs every Monday at 11:00am ET on PRN. Length: one hour
