Upcoming Broadcasts

Yusuf, Max, and the ASNN Aboluminati are live on location from DC after the 52nd annual Congressional Black Caucus convention. We'll talk about our experiences with legislators in our efforts to amplify the slavery abolition movement and to garner legislative support for a momentous year in 2024. We'll be introducing 16 slavery abolition bills from 16 states to change 16 constitutions. All while support grows for the Abolition Amendment. A federal joint resolution to repeal the 13th amendment and replace it with a 28th amendment that abolishes slavery and involuntary servitude without exception as a punishment for crime or any other reason. Of course we'll tie it all together with music, spoken word, and the teachings of Slavery Abolitionist ancestors brought to life for a new generation.
