Black and Queer Around the World: What Does Solidarity Look Like?

Systematic problems don't limit themselves to just the countries we know and hear about; racism, occupation, profiteering, these are global problems and the solutions, too, must look to the world. In our first interview of this week, Cazembe Jackson, a transman and anti-racist socialist organizer from Atlanta, speaks to how the American South is typically erased from activist conversations -- despite having some of the most practice in radical organizing under conservative administrations. Plus, a conversation between two women working on abolition, Johnae Strong (of BYP100) and Masera Maru (Rhodes Must Fall), and why the movement against anti-Blackness spans the world.  Music featured "Black Man In a White World" by Michael Kiwanuka;  "Equal Rights" by Company Freak ft Dawn Tallman Support forward thinking media during our MayDay to MemorialDay membership drive for as little as $2 a month!
