Unrest has continued in the Turkish city of Istanbul as protesters have refused to leave public parks on the orders of the government. Clashes between demonstrators and police have been occurring daily since May 31.

Joint military forces from Sudan and Chad have been deployed along the borders near the Western Darfur region of Sudan. The aim of the joint operations is to maintain stability in the affected areas.

South Sudan says it is backing Ethiopia in the latest row between Addis Ababa and Egypt over the Blue Nile. Ethiopia has announced plans to reroute a section of the Blue Nile to build a dam for a hydro-electric power project.

Finally, can recent reconciliation efforts by the Somalia Federal Government bring stability to the south of the country? Meanwhile, a dispute has re-emerged over the control of the southern port city of Kismayo between local leaders, some of whom are backed by neighboring Kenya.

The second half of the program features and extensive interview with Norman Otis Richmond of Toronto, Ontario (Canada) on the history and significance of Black Music Month.
