1919Radio

Welcome to another episode of 1919Radio. In this episode, our host Caleb Yohannes is joined by Dr. Jemima Pierre and Dr. Kevin Edmonds to discuss the ongoing colonial and manufactured political, social, and economic crisis in Haiti. Dr. Pierre and Dr. Edmonds are community organizers, distinguished scholars, and hold a lifelong commitment to learning, grounding, and continuing to struggle for Haiti’s independence.

In this episode, our guests analyze Haiti’s current crisis and the illegal propping up of puppet president Jovenel Moise through a lens that discusses western led imperialism, the UN and Minustah occupation, forms of counter-revolution and neoliberal hegemony, and the history of propaganda and cultural warfare in Haiti from 1804 until today.

At the end of the episode, our guests share their thoughts about how we can support and lead an international Pan-African solidarity movement against the growing oppression of Black people everywhere.

Welcome to another episode of 1919Radio. In this episode, our host Caleb is joined by Stevie from the Prisoner Correspondence Project (PCP). This episode is a part of our outreach program to provide support for their penpal initiative. 

Established in 2007 in Montreal, The Prisoner Correspondence Project (PCP) organizes to facilitate communication between LGBTQIA2S+ prisoners in Canada and the United States with individuals of their communities outside of prison. They view their work as an opportunity to draw the wider LGBTQIA2S+ community into prison justice organizing and build upon gay liberation legacies and the larger prison justice movement.

Their work emphasizes that letter writing is the basic first step of any kind of prison support and has a tangible impact on the isolation of a prison sentence. If you are interested in initiating a correspondence and helping link incarcerated folx to resources, education and community support not reachable in prison, check out the PCP website.
