The Most Important Thing You Can Share is History

© 7/2026 by Mumia Abu-Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/message-to-galaxy-fellows/ The most important thing you can share -- the North Star you refer to -- is History.  Real history teaches why today is the way it is, today. Malcolm X used to say, History, of all our studies, best rewards our research. When he learned about history, it transformed him. The history of Black people in America opened his head and expanded his mind. It remade [...]

NATIONAL MOBILIZATION AGAINST GENOCIDES

July 4, 2026 - Atlanta Georgia Today's reading of the US Declaration of Independence leaves little to celebrate. The forefathers of the USA called to dissolve the political bonds that connected their new colonies to the British empire. However, the masses of people living here, created equal in the eyes of God/Allah/the Great Spirit, were in no way treated equally or free by those who proclaimed this land to be the “United [...]

No I.C.E.! No War! No Fascist USA! Minnesota Shows the Way!

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action Los Angeles/People Against Racist Terror (ARA-LA/PART) Whether you agree or disagree that Trump is a fascist or that fascism is already here, as George Jackson put it 55+ years ago, there is no doubt that the time for massive resistance and non-compliance is upon us. That is the only viable response to state efforts to terrorize civil society, stigmatize and red-bait any protest or political criticism as [...]

Assata Returns to the Ancestors

© 10/10/25 by Mumia Abu Jamal https://www.prisonradio.org/commentary/assata-returns-to-the-ancestors/ Her name, Assata Shakur, has become an iconic symbol of Black revolutionary resistance to the white nation and American Empire. Shot, beaten and threatened with death, Assata lived up to the meaning of her name: “She who struggles.” Born Joanne Deborah Byron on July 16, 1947, in Queens, N.Y., she came of age during the tumultuous 1960s, when young Black people joined movements and organizations [...]

Trump launches federal attack on so-called “domestic terrorism”, sends troops to Portland

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action-LA It should be noted that although pundits have responded to Trump's executive order declaring antifa a domestic terrorist group, by asserting that "antifa" is a loose political tendency, not an organization, this is not really true. Portland has an organized Rose City Antifa group that was originally part of the ARA Network (along with ARA-LA/PART and other chapters), and is now part of the TORCH Antifa Network, [...]

Open The Eyes of Many

©08/2025 by Mumia Abu-Jamal (Spanish translation below) When we shine that bright light, we will symbolically, literally and figuratively, open the eyes of many. And there are guys walking around right now who have glaucoma, who have eye damage, who have lens damage, who have retinal damage due to diabetes, and all of that can be treated, can be cured, or at least held at bay for a pittance. You know, laser [...]

What is Black August?

by Thandisizwe Chimurenga Black August is observed every year to commemorate the fallen freedom fighters of the Black Liberation Movement, to call for the release of political prisoners in the United States, to condemn the oppressive conditions of U.S. prisons, and to emphasize the continued importance of the Black Liberation struggle. Black August originated in the concentration camps (prisons) of California in 1979 and its roots come from that history of resistance [...]
