Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to this edition of the Pan-African Journal hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. The program presents our regular PANW reports with features on Yemen, South Africa, Zimbabwe and the police killing of Walter Scott in North Charleston, South Carolina. In the second hour we examine the 150th anniversary of the conclusion of the Civil War (1861-1865) through an archived audio interview with Robin Blackburn on Marx and Lincoln on slavery and civil war. The final hour deals with the political and economic origins of the so-called American Revolution. An archived radio interview with historian Gerald Horne explores the Counter-Revolution of 1776 exposing the mythology surrounding the breaking away of the 13 colonies from the British Empire during the late 18th century.
