NSPM-7: The New Rationale for Domestic and Global Fascism
Black Agenda Radio with Margaret Kimberley
24 Jul 2026
🖨️ Print Article

The Trump administration has accelerated its attacks on leftist organizations and individuals while also justifying its genocidal siege of Cuba with the release of the document "Cuba: The Capital of 21st Century Communism." This follows Executive Order National Security Presidential Memorandum-7 (NSPM-7), which calls for state repression and the criminalization of leftist organizing. Ajamu Baraka, Black Agenda Report contributing editor and Director of the North-South Project for Peoples Centered Human Rights, provides analysis on this newest iteration of state repression in the U.S.
