Continued……He went on to earn his PhD from London’s School of Oriental and African Studies aged 24 with his research challenging established narratives on Europe’s role in the slave trade.
Rodney's determination to make a difference took him to Tanzania‘s Dar Es Salaam University, where, in the late ‘60s, he taught and left his mark on a generation of historians living under the leadership of Mwalimu Julius Nyerere. Returning to Jamaica, he embraced the struggles of the marginalised and connected with students and the working poor through his teachings and community engagement. His ability to bridge the gap between intellectuals and the masses was met with government surveillance and eventual expulsion from Jamaica. This sparked widespread riots and cemented his radical legacy.
Throughout his life, Rodney remained dedicated to the cause of social justice, forming alliances with intellectuals, including Rastafarian leaders and Black-power activists. Notably, his impact extended to figures such as Ralph Gonsalves, who now serves as the prime minister of St. Vincent and the Grenadines.
After his expulsion from Jamaica, Rodney returned to Tanzania, where he played a key role in the Dar Es Salaam school of intellectual inquiry. There, he completed his chief work: How Europe Underdeveloped Africa. This continues to provoke passionate debates among historians and pan-Africanists today. The acclaimed book exposed the detrimental effects of European colonialism on Africa's development.
30,000 people showed up to send him off at his funeral, illustrating how dearly he was held by the people. We remember the guerrilla intellectual as a key figure who left a lasting legacy on academia and the struggle for social justice.

KENYAN STAR BIEN TALKS POLITICS
Art is especially powerful when it is used to hold up a mirror to society. Kenyan artist Bien (@bienaimesol on IG) shared his views on the current state of his home country with US radio show @breakfastclubam (X/IG) on New York’s Power 105.1 FM. In this segment, he highlights the marriage of convenience between Kenyan president William Ruto and former opposition leader Raila Odinga in the face of a movement against bad governance. An example of this unofficial coalition was the state's response to protests against the IMF-backed Finance Bill 2024, which saw arrests, abductions and killings without any immediate political repercussions for Ruto.
Have a watch and please share your thoughts.

GERMANY RETURNS BLACK PEOPLE’S SKULLS TO NEW ORLEANS
Nearly 150 years after the skulls of 19 Black people had been transported to Germany for pseudoscientific experiments, the University of Leipzig returned the remains to the US city of New Orleans for a proper memorial on 30 May at Dillard University.
The return of these remains reminds us of the widespread use of pseudoscience in the 19th century to justify racial hierarchies that continue to buttress capitalism to this day.

SNOW AND FLOODS LEAVE TRAIL OF DESTRUCTION IN SOUTH AFRICA
South Africa is grappling with the aftermath of deadly floods and snowfall that have left at least 78 people dead and thousands displaced. The weather disaster has also cut power and washed away bridges and roads, especially in the country's Eastern Cape province, the epicentre of the disaster.
Many residential areas remain submerged in water, forcing residents to spend nights in makeshift shelters that offer very little protection from the cold weather.
The damage to critical infrastructure has hampered search-and-rescue efforts by emergency-response services.

While snow is common in parts of South Africa during this time of the year, it has rarely resulted in widespread damage and loss of life.

KENYANS DEMAND JUSTICE FOR TEACHER KILLED IN POLICE CUSTODY
Kenya’s capital was rocked by a large protest on Thursday (12 June) - with hundreds demanding justice for a teacher who recently died in police custody. Albert Ojwang’s autopsy revealed that his death had been caused by head trauma and neck compression. These are indicative of torture, contradicting initial police claims that Ojwang’s injuries were self-inflicted. Protesters gathered in Nairobi’s Central Business District, blocking roads. The police responded with tear gas and water cannon. It all has echoes of the beginnings of 2024’s rallies against IMF-backed tax hikes.
Ojwang was arrested 6 June in Homa Bay, Western Kenya, for allegedly mocking a local deputy police chief online. He was then transferred to Nairobi's central police station, where he died on 8 June. Protests began the following day and have swelled since.

Continued….. Kenya's police are infamous for acting with brutality and impunity - much like their colonial-era predecessors, whose job was to protect the British overlords, not native Kenyans. Now as then, they wield surveillance, abductions and executions with impunity. A 2014 study by the Independent Medico-Legal Unit found Kenyans are five times more likely to be shot dead by police than by criminals. According to the Police Reform Working Group, there were 1,264 cases of executions and 237 enforced disappearances. Meanwhile, despite over 10,000 investigations launched by the Independent Police Oversight Authority since 2011, only 33 convictions have been successful.
Swipe through for some pictures of Thursday’s action against police brutality and for justice for Albert Ojwang. Do you think we could be in for another 2024?

COLOMBIAN MERCS IN SUDAN
PROXY WAR
Amid news that more Colombian ID cards were recently found by the Sudanese army, we take a deep dive into the allegations - which first surfaced last year - that hundreds of mercenaries from the South American country are fighting in the proxy war in Africa. The picture that emerges is of a complex - and deceptive - recruitment scheme allegedly involving a retired Colombian general in cahoots with the United Arab Emirates, which supports the Rapid Support Forces paramilitary in Sudan. Ex-Colombian soldiers are apparently tricked into signing contacts to work as security guards in the UAE, but end up in the k*lling field of Sudan fighting for the RSF. In November 2024, 22 Colombian fighters were reportedly k*lled by a Sudanese army drone strike near El-Fasher, the capital of North Darfur.

Continued…….. Despite the deaths, it’s suspected that recruitment continues - with plans to deploy some 1,500 mercenaries in a contract worth $7.7 million a year. The UAE has a history of hiring Latin American mercenaries, including during the war in Yemen. But their involvement in Sudan exposes how foreign governments are outsourcing warfare to private actors, deepening one of the world’s most catastrophic humanitarian crises.

ALLIES AT ODDS: LIBYA-EGYPT-UAE TRIANGLE IN SUDAN'S PROXY WAR
On 10 June, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) accused Libyan forces loyal to Commander Khalifa Haftar of colluding with the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) by launching cross-border attacks against SAF border posts amidst Sudan's two-year foreign-backed proxy war.
Haftar, a former CIA asset since he relocated to the US in 1990, has controlled a large part of Libya since 2017-18, amidst the chaos that ensued following the 2011 US-led NATO invasion of Libya.
It is not the first time Sudan has lodged accusations against Haftar. In June 2024, Sudan's representative to the UN Security Council, Al-Harith Idris, accused Haftar of providing logistical support to the RSF. Then, in October, reports surfaced that the SAF had seized weapons originating in the Libyan coastal city of Benghazi.

Continued……. While the SAF receives support from Egypt, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) bankrolls the RSF, a paramilitary offshoot of the Janjaweed militia involved in the Darfur g*nocide between 2003 and 2005.
Haftar, whose Libyan stronghold is reportedly propped up by both Egypt and the UAE, presents a new turn in a war filled with contradictions. Egypt has historically supported Sudan's military establishment while mounting evidence suggests a connection between the UAE and the RSF. Plus, before the outbreak of the proxy war on 15 April 2023, the SAF and RSF were allies, jointly orchestrating crackdowns and atrocities dating as far back as the 2003 Darfur g*nocide and continuing through the 2021 coup that derailed Sudan's democratic transition. Their partnership unravelling in 2023 revealed the fragility of their political and military alliance, all of which has led to the world's largest humanitarian and displacement crises, according to the UN.
Even more proxy forces getting involved in Sudan's devastating war ultimately means more suffering for Sudanese civilians, who remain at the mercy of both power-hungry military leaders and foreign actors determined to exploit the country's chaos for strategic gains.

LIVERPOOL RAMMING EXPOSES FAR RIGHT’S HYPOCRISY
Prominent UK far-right hate-monger Paul Golding recently took issue with the police’s decision to reveal the racial identity of the suspect of a car-ramming incident that left 109 injured during celebrations following Liverpool FC clinching their 20th league noscript. He wondered why the identity was revealed faster than that of the suspect involved in a July 2024 stabbing incident, in which 3 girls died.
The riots that followed that stabbing saw a mosque attacked, hotels housing migrants torched and Southport residents living in fear for their lives.
Goulding’s real concern is not with protecting the identities of suspects - or for the victims in Liverpool and Southport. His real aim is to whip up hatred against migrants. And his differing responses to the two tragedies make this clear.
