They're consistent, you have to give them that. They managed to make a disturbing impression on my grandfather in New Guinea, and he was used to his own compatriots showing off human trophies on the cover of Time Magazine, and trying to mutilate or murder any prisoners they miraculously managed to take.

"We’re told that countries across the Global South are poor and plagued by violence not because of colonialism, imperialism, never ending Western wars, resource theft and destabilization campaigns. Rather, it’s because they’re ruled by corrupt and greedy people who seem to be innately authoritarian and backwards due to some sort of cultural deficiency that prevents respect for human rights and causes state failure."

"To discuss the colonial and racist framework used by Western policymakers to justify ongoing imperialist aggression in Africa and how it’s being folded into the new Cold War on Russia and China, Rania Khalek was joined by Zubairu Wai, Associate Professor of Political Science and Global Development Studies at the University of Toronto."

also wtf amlo

Opposition to President Bongo's regime first appeared in the late 1970s, as economic difficulties became more acute for the Gabonese. The first organized, but illegal, opposition party was MORENA, the Movement for National Restoration (Mouvement de redressement national).

AMLO walks around the world.
Frontiers cannot bar him.
Neither barracks nor barricades impede.
Nor does barbed wire scar him.
AMLO walks around the world.
Black, brown, and white receive him.
Language is no barrier.
The strangest tongues believe him.
AMLO walks around the world.
The sun sets like a scar.
Between the darkness and the dawn
There rises a pink star.

The West African countries of Niger, Burkina Faso, and Mali are in rebellion against their former colonial masters, while the imperialists of the Global North try desperately to contain the situation. But the portrayal of these developments as mere “coups” hides the depth of popular anger, particularly against the French? What almost no one else is telling is the story of popular movements and organizations in West Africa who are supporting the military transition governments. Where do they come from? Could this spill over into other African countries? Where does pan-Africanism fit in? Where do Russia and China fit in, if at all?

To discuss this and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Kambale Musavuli, an activist, writer, and analyst with the Center for Research on the Congo.

Yes, Numsa. Metal workers. They are Marxist, have 300k members and had a reluctant relationship with the ANC ever since Mandela forced them to accept the GEAR neolib policies in ~96.

They abandoned the ANC a few years back and are not currently officially endorsing anyone but are obviously building ties with the EFF.
