On today’s show, we begin with Frankie Ramos, Director of Campaigns and Organizing at CURYJ (Communities United for Restorative Youth Justice), joined by Mike Muscadine, Community Peace Manager. They share details about this Saturday’s Town Nights event, themed “Fresh for School.” The gathering continues CURYJ’s work to build safety through community, not punishment, with resources, performances, and back-to-school support for local youth.
In the second half, we hear from journalist, author, and political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal, who joins host Kalonji Changa in a wide-ranging conversation recorded by Black Power Media. Marking 40 years since his imprisonment, Abu-Jamal speaks on his health, reflections on movement building in the wake of George Floyd, and the role of revolutionary journalism in amplifying the voices of the people. His words call us to unity, resistance, and renewed commitment to the struggle for freedom.
Together, these conversations highlight the spirit of resilience and organizing that fuels movements for justice—from Oakland’s streets to prison cells across the nation.
Hard Knock Radio is a drive-time Hip-Hop talk show on KPFA (94.1fm @ 4-5 pm Monday-Friday), a community radio station without corporate underwriting, hosted by Davey D and Anita Johnson.
