    Welcome to the radio magazine that brings you news, commentary andanalysis from a Black Left perspective. I’m Margaret Kimberley, along with my co-hostGlen Ford. Coming up: The President of South Africa maintains that the recent riots thatfollowed the arrest former president Jacob Zuma were actually part of an insurrectionagainst the state. And, some things seldom change when the two parties switch placesin the United States. President Joe Biden is just as hostile to China and Cuba as DonaldTrump was.But first -- Broward County College in south Florida recently hosted a discussion aboutthe turmoil in Haiti, where the president was assassinated by a mercenary force fromColombia. All the participants in the Browder College talk were Haitian Americans –among them, professor Reginald Darbonne and author and activist Pascal Robert, whoemphasizes that class is an important part of Haiti’s historical dynamic. That was author and activist Pascal Robert, speaking at Broward College,in South Florida. The continuity of US foreign policy, even as the Democrats and Republicans tradeplaces in the White House, is quite amazing. Although Democrats portrayed PresidentDonald Trump as representing everything they opposed, when Joe Biden took control ofthe Oval Office he left Trump’s moves against China and Cuba intact, virtuallyunchanged. That subject was explored by Sean Blackmon, of Sputnik Radio, in aninterview with Netfa Freeman, of the Black Alliance for Peace. That was Netfa Freeman, of the Black Alliance for Peace, on SputnikRadio with Sean Blackmon and  Jacqueline Luqman. When former South African President Jacob Zuma was arrested on corruption charges,housands of his followers rioted and looted in two African Provinces, last week.President Cyril Ramaphosa claimed the disturbances amounted to an attemptedinsurrection against the state. To dig deeper into this story, VAV Radio called oAbayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Detroit-based Pan African News Wire.

    Welcome to the radio magazine that brings you news, commentary andanalysis from a Black Left perspective. I’m Margaret Kimberley, along with my co-hostGlen Ford. Coming up:, When Haitian president Jovenel Moise was assassinated,,purportedly by a mostly Colombian band of mercenaries, the regime in Port-Au-Princepromptly begged the United States to send troops to Haiti. President Biden initially said“No,” but that could change any time, since invasions of Haiti have become a habit forthe U.S. over the past century. We’ll hear from Gerald Horne, the prolific author andUniversity of Houston professor, on the long and brutal history of U.S. and Europeanaggression against Haiti, the world’s first republic liberated by enslaved people.But first – across the length and breadth of the US, states are passing or debatingCritical Race Theory. Or rather, white Republicans are busy making up their ownfantastic versions of what Critical Race Theory is, so that they can outlaw those whodare to discuss issues of race in the United States. Here to explain the historical roots ofthe madness, are Paul Macomb, a Haitian American philosopher and socioist currentlyteaching at the University of West Virginia, and writer and political analyst PascalRobert, also a Haitian American. Pascal Robert: That was Pascal Robert, the activist and writer, along with Dr. PaulMacomb, of the University of West Virginia, at a webinar on Critical Race Theory as itactually exists in the United States – as opposed to the fantasies in the minds of millionsof white Republicans. The poor and oppressed majority in Haiti had been mobilized for many months,demanding that president Jovenel Moise step down for a long list of crimes. And thenlast week, Moise was cut down in his residence by a dozen bullets, purported at thehands of Colombian mercenaries. Dr. Gerald Horne and Dr. Jemima Pierre spoke at awebinar on “Haiti vs Imperialism and Necolonialism” a day before the assassination.Their talk on Haiti’s history is especially valuable, because it provides a background tounderstand today’s events on the island nation. Pierre is a Haitian American whoteaches anthropology at UCLA. Horne is a professor of History at the University of Houston, and the author of over 30 books – many of which put HAITI front and center inhstory.
