This edition will feature our regular PANW report with dispatches on the warning by the Islamic Republic of Iran regarding the suggestion that Saudi Arabian troops will intervene in Syria on the side against the government of President Bashar al-Assad in Damascus; the South Sudan SPLA-IO leader and current re-appointed Vice-President Reik Machar says he will not re-locate to the capital of Juba until the demilitarization process is complete; there was a large demonstration in the capital of Burundi in support of the government of President Pierre Nkurunziza on Feb. 13 amid reports that neighboring Rwanda plans to relocate refugees from Burundi to another African state; and the Walter Rodney Commission of Inquiry in Guyana says it has completed its report on the assassination of the African and Caribbean historian who was killed in June 1980.

In the second hour we continue our recognition of the 90th anniversary of African American History Month which was founded by Dr. Carter G. Woodson in 1926.

We look at the problems of African American historical periodization through a lecture delivered by Professor John Hope Franklin in 1969.

Finally in the third hour and related to African American History Month, we present more primary source documentation commemorating the 50th anniversary of the Black Panther Party.
