yea they asked him about the drop out rate & how he could help. He said something about if these kids were learning more about themselves it would instill some pride and self worth & that's how he got on the Columbus tip.

ATC: Have you developed particular forms for expressing self-determination?

CL: We have created a People’s Assembly (PA) as part of our strategy in organizing our movement. The People’s Assembly is open to the people in the area. At first we held a PA in Ward 2 because I’m the Councilman of Ward 2. Now we’re expanding it to cover the whole city of Jackson.

People can voice their complaints but more importantly, try to take control over planning for city government. This can be a base for organizing. We want it to become an alternative source of governing. What we’re doing is building an infrastructure for a liberated people.

whoo lawd let him live let him LIVE!!!!!! :lupe:

The realness: Human Rights Defender Chokwe Lumumba | Front Line

“I only came to the movement because of King and he was killed. I only stayed in the movement because of Malcolm and he was killed. Then I became a leader” – Chokwe Lumumba

...

Dr. King’s assassination on April 4, 1968, affected Lumumba profoundly. He says, “I think the single most important thing in my political development is his death. You see, to my mother he was the Black Moses. She followed him and she always talked to me about him”. On the day following King’s death, Lumumba, participated in a student takeover of the University Center Building of Western Michigan University, where he was a student. The protesters demanded that the university hire more African American teachers and create Martin Luther King scholarships for African American students.

...
After graduation, Lumumba became an advocate for the protection of Black communities, following attacks by local police and vigilante groups. Rather than harassing the so-called “radical leadership”, special units of the Detroit police, had begun targeting the African American community for “pre-emptive action”.

Lumumba confronted these abuses with community patrols against violence and drug dealing and an urban scout program for young people to protect themselves against gang and racial attacks. He created the Malcolm X Center to educate and train young Black activists. He established Africa-centric schools to teach the dismantling of racism and sexism and inspire Black pride. He challenged the excessive rates for heat and electricity being charged residents of poor neighborhoods.

good lord the comments section. why did i click on comments :why:

shyt reads like an angry less educated version of A Call to Unity A Call for Unity - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia, but with even more thinly veiled concern for preservation of the white dominant view of history. "worry about [this, this, and this], THEN start to change the textbooks", not realizing at all that [this, this, and this] is at least indirectly sparked by how kids view their educational experience. most people who enjoy school and see merit in their education do not go on to become common criminals, how fukking hard is it to to see that? :mindblown:

anytime someone is going to do something that upsets the status quo, there's someone with so-called good intentions like " :whoa: hold on, let's be patient now". you see the same shyt in the labor movement, civil rights struggles, and any other situation where truth must be spoken to power. fukking clowns dont even realize their roles in these repeated histories, either. maybe they'd benefit from a revision of history books :lupe:
