This broadcast features our regular PANW reports with dispatches on the current power shortages in the Southern African nation of Zimbabwe where the government is attempting to resolve the crisis along with a burgeoning income gap among executives and the majority of working and poor people; the United States supported regime in Somalia faced another attempt to impeach the current president in Mogadishu; a political analyst suggests that Kenya is not a middle-income state which poses huge economic challenges for the future; and fighting continues among internecine rebel groups in the North African state of Libya where in Benghazi, the birthplace of the 2011 counter-revolution, people are being killed even under a curfew imposed on the city recently.

In our second and third hours we conclude the month-long focus on race relations in the U.S. and internationally.

An examination of the slave burial grounds discovered in New York City reveals a profound history of African people in that region of the country.

Also the so-called "Tulsa Riot" of 1921 is reviewed as one the worst acts of mass slaughter and destruction in the U.S. directed against African Americans.

Finally a retrospective on the South African Revolution is presented through an audio documentary championing the heroic role of the masses in that country.
