Interview with the Black Panthers: Solidarity with Rednecks & Palestine

Recorded back in November, the Minister of Defense for the Black Panther Party talks rednecks and shares his time-tested wisdom with the current social revolutionary movement, warns us of past and coming challenges to our solidarity and solutions to overcome the divide-and-conquer tactics that have separated us for far too long. https://www.blackpantherpartywa.com/https://thepantherparty.com/www.instagram.com/bpp.waSpecial thanks to Nathan Evans Fox for his beautiful song.www.instagram.com/nathan.evans.foxThe Black Panthers Ten Point Program:1. We Want Freedom. We Want Power to Determine the Destiny of Our Black Community.We believe that Black people will not be free until we are able to determine our destiny.2. We Want Full Employment for Our People.3. We Want An End to the Robbery By the Capitalists of Our Black Community.We believe that this racist government has robbed us, and now we are demanding the overdue debt of forty acres and two mules. Forty acres and two mules were promised 100 years ago as restitution for slave labor and mass murder of Black people. 4. We Want Decent Housing Fit For The Shelter of Human Beings.5. We Want Education for Our People That Exposes The True Nature Of This Decadent American Society. We Want Education That Teaches Us Our True History And Our Role in the Present-Day Society.We believe in an educational system that will give to our people a knowledge of self. If a man does not have knowledge of himself and his position in society and the world then he has little chance to relate to anything else.6. We Want All Black Men To Be Exempt From Military Service.We believe that Black people should not be forced to fight in the military service to defend a racist government that does not protect us. 7. We Want An Immediate End to Police Brutality and the Murder of Black People.We believe we can end police brutality in our Black community by organizing Black self-defense groups that are dedicated to defending our Black community from racist police oppression and brutality. The Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States gives a right to bear arms. We therefore believe that all Black people should arm themselves for self-defense.8. We Want Freedom For All Black Men Held in Federal, State, County and City Prisons and Jails.We believe that all Black People should be released from the many jails and prisons because they have not received a fair and impartial trial.9. We Want All Black People When Brought to Trial To Be Tried In Court By A Jury Of Their Peer Group Or People From Their Black Communities, As Defined By the Constitution of the United States.We believe that the courts should follow the United States Constitution so that Black people will receive fair trials. The Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution gives a man a right to be tried by his peer group. A peer is a person from a similar economic, social, religious, geographical, environmental, historical, and racial background. To do this the court will be forced to select a jury from the Black community from which the Black defendant came. We have been, and we are being, tried by all-White juries that have no understanding of the “average reasoning man” of the Black community.10. We Want Land, Bread, Housing, Education, Clothing, Justice And Peace.When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume, among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect of the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.#BlackPanthers #history #YoungPatriots #FredHampton #redneck #countrymusic #politics #police #racism #ice #democrats #republican #foxnews #workingclass #chicago #aoc #berniesanders #trump

We are entering The Global Police State: Dr. William I. Robinson

Once upon a time...right-wing conspiracy theorists warned us about a coming police-state ran by the global elites. They were right... But...ironically, now they're cheering on that same police state. How is this possible??? Branding.We will be slowly rolling out a series of episodes on the subject of revolution and how we can actually make it happen. But first we need to lay out the basic contextual framework of how we got here and why revolution is absolutely necessary for our survival.To help us do this, we're bringing in the professionals. www.instagram.com/dr.williamrobinsonofficialWilliam I. Robinson is an American sociologist and professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, specializing in political economy, globalization, and social theory. He’s widely recognized for his work on global capitalism and transnational class formation.In the 1980s, Robinson worked directly with the Sandinista National Liberation Front (FSLN) in Nicaragua during the revolutionary period after they overthrew the Somoza dictatorship in 1979. He was involved in political education, journalism, and solidarity work, helping to support and defend the Sandinista revolution both inside Nicaragua and internationally. His experiences during that time deeply shaped his later academic work on imperialism, social movements, and the global capitalist system.Robinson remains an outspoken advocate for anti-imperialist movements and often draws on his Sandinista-era experiences in his critiques of U.S. foreign policy and neoliberalism.List of William I.

From Israel to Kashmir: Occupations Learn From Each Other as Border War Looms w/ Shaniyat Turari

Here on Colonial Outcasts we are becoming accustomed to covering controversial and polarizing conflicts where no matter how balanced you try to be you’re gonna catch heat-rounds - Russia/Ukrain, Syria, and now Kashmir. I know many of you are not familiar with the situation in Kashmir and why It matters to you, but I’ll say this and this is my boiler plate perspective. Palestine has been occupied by Israel since 1948, Kashmir has been largely occupied by India since 1947. Both Supremacist ideologies. And since governments learn from each other, military officers and politicians in India’s command echelon are looking at the Annexation of the West Bank and are judging it more likely, since Israel has set a blatant precedent, that they can get away with something similar in Kashmir.

Checking off a critical bucket list item: Colonial Outcasts officially coronates its alliance with Irish resistance against colonialism and imperialism via an unapologetic scattershot harangue with Jake, lead the singer of The Shan Vans, a Belfast-based Irish-language rock band blending high-energy sound with a radical political message. Rooted in anti-imperialism and Irish resistance, their music champions decolonization, cultural revival, and international solidarity.Released last month, their third and latest single The Shan Van, a powerful anti-genocide anthem, forms the centerpiece of Unite Against Genocide, their Ireland-Palestine solidarity project which involved over 100 artists and contributors worldwide.Jake draws on themes of resistance, decolonization, and cultural memory, influenced by his upbringing in the early OOs in one of the most politically active communities in Ireland, Ballymurphy. Singing in Irish, Jake blends personal and political narratives, often weaving together themes of decolonization, Irish mythology, radical poetry, and contemporary global struggles.www.instagram.com/theshanvans www.x.com/theshanvanshttps://awkwardvoicebl... #music #kneecap #ireland #irish #war #politics #coachella #punk #rock #genz #belfast
