Black Agenda Radio · Black Woman Chosen to Lead UK Conservative Party

Roger McKenzie is the international editor of the UK-based Morning Star newspaper, the only English-language socialist daily newspaper in the world. He is also the author of the recently published book, African Uhuru: the Fight for African Freedom in the Rise of the Global South. He joins us from Oxford to discuss Kemi Badenoch, a member of parliament in the UK, who was recently chosen to lead the Tories, the conservative party. Badenoch is the child of Nigerian immigrants and is the first Black person to lead a political party in the UK. As in the US, the Black face in a high place creates political crises for Black people.
