Continued….. According to Maud-Salomé Ekila Bofunda (@Ekilaaa on X), spokesperson of Urgences Panafricanistes, ‘The reasons given by the Ministry of Higher Education are clear: Diplomatic pressure from France, which does not approve of the DRC, which it considers a friendly country, allowing a Congolese university to award this type of noscript to a person who ‘acts’ against France and makes anti-French comments.’
In 2024, France revoked Séba’s citizenship for allegedly working against French interests. However, it came after he burned his French passport.

As warring parties vie for territorial control in Sudan, the country’s civilians, particularly those from historically marginalised regions like Darfur, continue to bear the brunt of the power struggle, coming up on its second anniversary on 15 April.
Although the United Arab Emirates-backed paramilitary, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF), is responsible for most of the war’s atrocities and is accused of g*nocide, many, including the UN, have charged both the RSF and the Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) of grave human-rights abuses and ethnically motivated k*llings.
The 24 March airstrike on a weekly market in Turra village in North Darfur follows a similar military airstrike on another market in December 2024 that killed at least 100 civilians. Emergency Lawyers, a network that documents human rights abuses, said the army deliberately targeting civilians is a ‘systematic war crime and a flagrant violation of international humanitarian law.’

Continued……In October 2024, the group reported continuous aerial bombardment by the SAF in RSF-occupied areas in El Gezira, Sennar, White Nile state, North Kordofan, and West and North Darfur, had k*lled an estimated 500 civilians in just one week.
Meanwhile, the armed forces have said the allegations are ‘incorrect,’ arguing it has only exercised its ‘constitutional and legal right to deal with hostile targets.’ Their statements contradict the reports on the ground, where some of the identified victims were unarmed civilians, including children, women and the elderly.

NAMIBIA’S NEW BOSS SEEKS MORE REPARATIONS
Namibia’s new president means business when it comes to reparations from Germany for the genocide it perpetrated against her people at the start of the 20th century. In an interview with the BBC, Netumbo Nandi-Ndaitwah said that the just-over-a-billion euros already paid out would not suffice - and that she’s confident Berlin won’t drag its feet to reach a more just settlement. Between 1904 and 1908, colonial forces exterminated three-quarters of Herero and half of Nama people in what was then German South West Africa.

‘KHARTOUM IS FREE!’ - ARMY CHIEF
General Abdel Fattah al-Burhan announced on 26th March that Khartoum had been liberated from the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF) paramilitary, shortly after touching down at the capital’s international airport for the first time in two years.
The announcement marks a symbolically important victory for the national army, which has made notable gains recently, first reclaiming territory in central Sudan before turning its attention to Khartoum. In January, they broke the RSF’s nearly two-year siege of the General Command headquarters. By mid-March, the army reported that its forces had converged from both the north and south of Khartoum, effectively encircling the RSF. It’s since retaken the Presidential Palace and the airport, in addition to other government facilities.

Continued….. With the retreating RSF solidifying its control in the west, more defined battle lines are emerging, raising concerns about a potential division of the country.
This violent conflict has resulted in the displacement of 12.9-million people and left nearly 25 million facing severe hunger, according to the UN. In May 2024, US special envoy for Sudan Tom Perriello reported that up to 150,000 people may have been killed after the first year of fighting, with the actual death toll likely higher due to the destruction of the healthcare system, which has hindered accurate reporting.

BRIT LOBBIES U.S. TO BACK SPLITTING SOUTH AFRICA!
Phil Craig left the UK in 2004 to start a new life in South Africa. He is now at the centre of a secessionist movement seeking to establish a new country - in which Black people are not the majority - at the southern tip of the African continent.
Craig is a leader and member of several organisations advocating for the ‘independence’ of South Africa’s Western Cape province, the country’s most White region. He claims that his movement is not racist but only wants to create a country of people who believe in ‘Western values.’
Many South Africans are now demanding that their government send Craig back to the UK - so that he can go and freely enjoy his beloved Western values.

Throughout Black people’s history in the United States, opposing trends of thought about the best way to address oppression have competed. Here, @HamptonThink reposted @19keys_ on X by commenting on the divergence between greater assimilation into the US empire and fighting for true emancipation and self-determination.
Kwame Ture (formerly Stokely Carmichael) and an organisation he once chaired, the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), popularised the term, Black Power, a call for Black people to struggle toward freedom and self-reliance. It identified the ‘white power structure’ as part and parcel of the capitalist system.

👍5🤔1
Continued….. The Black Power Movement adopted socialist and internationalist politics, connecting with national liberation struggles globally and identifying Black people as an ‘internal colony’ of the United States. Ture also famously stated, ‘The highest political expression of Black Power is Pan-Africanism.’ From then on, many who continued the revolutionary tradition saw themselves as Africans fighting a Pan-African struggle against imperialism.
Meanwhile, ‘Black Excellence’ relies on the misunderstanding that one needs only to pull oneself up by one’s ‘bootstraps’ within a white-supremacist society. Many have used the label to celebrate politicians like former US President Barack Obama, who invaded Libya, and wealthy celebrities like Beyoncé, who largely encourages materialism and celebrity obsession.
Former US President Richard Nixon promoted ‘Black capitalism’ in response to the socialist politics that gained popularity among Black people during the late 1960s and early 1970s. That came after the FBI launched COINTELPRO (standing for ‘Counterintelligence Program’) to infiltrate, surveil and dismantle revolutionary organisations. Both of these phenomena helped shift Black people in the US toward seeking individual success via capitalism.

False narratives have blurred the history of slavery in the United States.
For example, despite his own words regarding his intentions, former US President Abraham Lincoln (1809-65) continues to be credited with freeing enslaved Africans and presented as a morally upright person with good intentions.
Here, we debunk some of these myths, starting with Lincoln being no abolitionist.
