Black Agenda Radio · Solidarity With the Uhuru Three

On July 29, 2022, the FBI raided seven locations in St. Petersburg, Florida, and St. Louis, Missouri that were affiliated with the African Peoples Socialist Party and the Uhuru Movement. Three people, Omali Yeshitela, Penny Hess, and Jesse Nevel were later indicted on charges related to operating as "unregistered foreign agents” which could result in prison terms of 15 years. Their trial is set to begin on September 3 in Tampa, Florida. On August 31 a “Not One Step Backwards” March and Rally will be held at the Uhuru House in St. Petersburg, Florida. Omali Yeshitela joins us from St. Petersburg to discuss this case. We also discussed this year’s presidential election and the defeat of Congresswoman Cori Bush.
