                                 Agenda

       Alafia   ! This is Dedon Kamathi with  Freedom Now’s agenda for this Tues April 13 we will address 3 topics. We will begin with  “every day is African history day”  with our African Drum Beat historical calendar. Here at Freedom Now  were we big up the role of women in the liberation struggle. It is our objective to continue to nurture the warrior leadership and organizational skills of women who have provides so much in our march to a just world..

  We will follow with a young Sista Keishiia Brunston who, from Compton, was traumatically terrorized by LA police department with the assassination of her uncle 24 year old Trey Brunston and rather be intimated she has been consistently organizing against LA PD.

  Brotha Kwazi Nkrumah will follow with a continuation of discussion that we had at the 112 anniversary at Southwest College commemorating the birth of Paul Robeson.  The thesis that since Barak Obama has been elected president their has been a convergence of various rights wing forces including the  militia, Neo Nazi, Tea party activist and members of the Republican party. This thesis  has been challenge by Brotha Kwazi so we will hear his point of view.

  We will close out with a discussion  will Gregory Evertt writer, producer and director of 41 & Central the untold story of the Southern California Chapter of the Black Panther Party together with Scott Brown author of “Fighting For US” former US member Wesley Kabilaya. While this film has stirred old embers of conflict between the Black Panther Party and the US organization it has also begun a healing process and we will discuss some of these issues..
