Black Agenda Radio · Black Agenda Radio June 14, 2024

In this week’s segment, we hear from a formerly incarcerated person about efforts in the state of California to end involuntary servitude - slavery - in the prison system. Also, we discuss the need for an enlarged housing voucher program in New York which would help low-income and unhoused people. But first, the construction of the Ouanaminthe Canal in Haiti is bringing sovereignty to the nation’s agricultural system even as it faces a new foreign occupation led by the United States.
