Pan-African Journal

Listen to the Sat. Aug. 6, 2022 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. This episode features our regular PANW report with dispatches on the continuing tensions generated in the South and East China Seas over the visit by United States Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to Taiwan; Russian military forces have continued their special military operations in neighboring Ukraine despite the claims of western news agencies of a counter-offensive from Kiev; the Gaza Strip is being bombarded by Israeli fighter jets reportedly killing 24 people; and Sudan has refused to participate in a dialogue in Eritrea over the unrest taking place on its border with the east of the Horn of Africa state. In the second hour we begin our monthlong focus on Black August which commemorate the struggle of African people against enslavement, colonialism, neo-colonialism, imperialism and institutional racism. We will look back on the groundbreaking historical account of the Haitian Revolution written by C.L.R. James during the late 1930s. In the final hour we examine the impact of U.S. House Speaker Pelosi's visit to Taiwan.
