What We Mean by "The System" and Why it Matters
This week we hear from Haki Shakur, National Spokesperson for the Provisional Government of the Republic of Afrika, on the state of the struggle for New Afrikan independence.
Before we get to the Naptown Breakdown, co-host Dani Abdullah makes plain why we at the Indy Liberation Center always keep the fight for Black Liberation center-stage and work to move it forward. We mean something specific when we refer to "the system:" it is an interlocking network of capitalist imperialism, national chauvinism, and national oppression/white supremacy.
Co-host Derek Ford starts the Naptown Breakdown with the latest major progressive development on the international stage: China breaking the US Naval Blockade on the Strait of Hormuz and refusal to recognize any US sanctions on Iranian oil.
As the City-County Council imposes a stricter curfew for youth, stoking fears of a “violent summer,” Dani and Derek contend that, based on recent events, the IMPD needs to diminish their presence and we should prepare for a summer of police terror and lies.
Haki Shakur, National Spokesperson for the Provisional Government of the Republic of New Afrika and the August 3rd Collective, as well as a leading member of the New Afrikan Freedom Campaign and the Shaka Shakur Freedom Campaign, discusses his involvement in the struggle, why all Political Prisoners--but especially Black/New Afrikan Political Prisoners--must be central to liberation struggles, the origins of the New Afrikan nation and identity, and the ultimate goal: statehood. Throughout, Haki addresses common misconceptions about the broad-based movement that is increasingly attracting the younger generations.
