The People’s War Radio Show, Episode #84: Deepening the Resistance to Police Terror--The 13th Annual Black People‘s March on the White House

Black Power Talks

On November 6th and 7th, the Black is Back Coalition for Social Justice, Peace and Reparations held its 13th Annual Black People’s March on the White House followed by its annual Conference in Washington DC. Africans, other colonized people and white people in solidarity gathered at Malcolm X Park and marched to Lafayette Park where they held a rally to mobilize for justice and self-determination for black people. The next day local and remote representatives of the various organizations that make up the Black is Back Coalition came together - some in-person and some virtual - and held their annual conference, broadcast online for the safety of the audience during the current pandemic.

In this episode, we present some excerpts from the rallies, the march and the conference. Full coverage of the conference can be found at the Black is Back Coalition’s Facebook Page.
