Black Agenda Radio 05.24.21
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 millions marched for justice for George Floyd, corporatephilanthropy put millions of dollars in the hands of Black Live Matter founders. We’llexplore the effect all that money had on the Movement. It’s not your grandmother’scapitalism anymore. People now examine the role that race plays in the class conflict.And, Blacks in the US are less likely to battle the cops, these days, than twogenerations ago? We’ll explore how that happened.But first – the movement for community control of the police is strongest in Chicago,where the board of Alderman is poised to put the cops under the tightest leash in thenation. Frank Chapman is executive director of the National Alliance Against Racist andPolitical Repression, which leads a strong community control coalition. That was Frank Chapman, of the National Alliance Against Racist andPolitical Repression, speaking from Chicago. The racial nature of capitalism is now better understood, largely thanks to a rejuvenatedBlack liberation movement. Justin Leroy is a professor of History at the University ofCalifornia, at Davis, and has co-authored a book titled “Histories of Racial Capitalism.”Dr. Leroy says the US electoral system leaves the money classes, the capitalists, inpower after every election. That was Justin Leroy, speaking from the University of California, Davis. After more than 20 million people protested the killing of George Floyd and other victimsof police repression, last summer, corporate foundations poured millions of dollars into the accounts of Black Lives Matter founders. Has all that money eroded therevolutionary character of the Movement? We put that question to Imani Wadud, anactivist and doctoral student in American Studies at the University of Kansas. That was Imani Wadud, at the University of Kansas. Author, activist and researcher Elizabeth Hinton’s new book, “America on Fire: TheUntold History of Police Violence and Black Rebellion,” shows that Black urban revoltshave dropped off dramatically since their peak in the early 1970s. Hinton explained why,in an interview with fellow activist and author Keeanga Taylor.
