Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast

Listen to the Sat. Nov. 14, 2020 edition of the Pan-African Journal: Worldwide Radio Broadcast hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire. This program features our PANW report with dispatches on the efforts of the Zimbabwe government to rebuild its national economy; Zambia is moving closer to the possibility of defaulting on its international debt obligations; the internal conflict in Ethiopia is continuing amid attacks by the TPLF on an airport and resort area along with threats against neighboring Eritrea; and the newly-reelected President John Magufuli of Tanzania has inaugurated the East African nation's 12th parliament. In the second hour and third hours we reexamine the role of two literary figures of the 20th century. James Baldwin and later Langston Hughes.  Their works are presented within the contemporary context of the ongoing problems involving politics, race relations and economic exploitation still prevalent in the 21st century.
