9 Video Playlist| NB: On July 29, 2022, the United States government initiated an attack on Africa through an FBI raid against the African People’s Socialist Party and its leader, Chairman Omali Yeshitela. This was an attack against the right of African people to struggle for our freedom. This attack and charges come in context of current and historic efforts to prevent black people from participation in elections or voting. Chairman Omali faced lynchings to register black people to vote in the South in the 1960s as a field organizer with the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee. Today he leads the Black is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations, which holds an annual free school teaching regular black people to run for office and which developed the platform that Uhuru candidates have run on. Now the DOJ is saying the Russian government created that platform and alleges election interference! “They told us we should go to the polls and vote if we wanted to make change; now they arrest us for participating in the electoral system.
