Warm welcome for Mrs. Jackson
Jackie Comes Home
CHICAGO�The nation welcomed home Jacqueline Jackson, wife of longtime civil rights leader the Rev. Jesse Jackson, hailing her courageous stand for her own dignity and her refusal to �pay for my own handcuffs� during her 10-day incarceration in a U.S. federal prison in Puerto Rico. Hundreds of well-wishers, including members of Congress, gathered June 30 at Rainbow/PUSH headquarters here to welcome Mrs. Jackson, who was arrested on June 18 on the Puerto Rican Island of Vieques for trespassing in an area that the U.S. Navy uses for bombing practice.

The Military Industrial Complex Comes To Colombia And The Sudan

For over two weeks now we have been waiting for the "slavery" in Sudan crowd to admit that the US government is providing military and logistical support to the Sudanese People's Liberation Army/Movement (SPLA), the rebel group that assists Christian Solidarity International (CSI) in the so-called "slave redemptions". We have heard nothing. That is not surprising considering that much of that crowd is woefully ignorant of how their efforts to heighten awareness of "slavery" in Sudan and throughout Africa is providing a cover story for US intervention on the continent.

Who is Black?
A Puerto Rican woman claims her place in the African Diaspora
Yesterday, an interesting thing happened to me. I was told I am not Black. The kicker for me was when my friend stated that the island of Puerto Rico was not a part of the African Diaspora. I wanted to go back to the old skool playground days and yell: �You said what about my momma?!� But after speaking to several friends, I found out that many Black Americans and Latinos agree with him. The miseducation of the Negro is still in effect!
