Re: political prisoners in the United States:
Steal This Radio #15
Mitchel Cohen interviews Ashanti Alston, former political
prisoner
and member of the Black Panther Party, and currently co-chair of
the
Jericho movement to free political prisoners in the United
States:
http://www.thejerichomovement.com
Ashanti -- one of the few self-described anarchists among the
Black
Liberation Movement -- takes us behind the scenes of a number of
activities in which he personally participated. Along the way,
he
broadens the values of the movement to include animal rights,
healthy
foods, and a deepened commitment to work with young people to
support
their work today as well as to connect them to older generations
of
radical activists.
Ashanti doesn't pull his punches, whether against the State or
concerning the misleadership of segments of the Movement, which
makes
his views compelling listening.
You can email Ashanti directly (speaking engagements,
interviews,
etc.) at AnarchistPanther@runbox.com .
This is Part One of a two-part in-studio interview.
This show will air on Tuesday, August 14 at 6 pm on
TribecaRadio.net,
and will be archived thereafter at

where you
can also listen to all the other editions.

Abbie's typically smart quotes: "Democracy is not something you
believe in or hang your hat on, but something you do. You
participate. If you stop doing it, democracy crumbles and falls.
If you participate, the future is yours."

His work confirmed for the subject the possibilities of
employing improvisational techniques in the creation of
"Happenings" with non-actors.
