There is a growing interest in socialism amongst Black people in the United States. A recent poll by Axios/Momentive found that a growing sector of the US public favors socialism and a decreasing number of people favor capitalism. While the poll found that 41 percent of people in the US favored socialism and 49 percent favored capitalism, a number that has dropped in recent years, the numbers out of the African community have risen profoundly. Sixty percent of Africans in the US favor socialism. That number is up from 53 percent in 2019. These rising numbers reflect a clear political awakening amongst the African community in the US. AS WE SAY IN THE UHURU MOVEMENT, THE ROAD TO SOCIALISM IS PAINTED BLACK!

The rising popularity of socialism amongst African people also represents Imperialism in Crisis. Imperialism is suffering because the colonized peoples who came under imperialist rule are now fighting back and reclaiming our resources. It also represents the leadership of the African People’s Socialist Party and the Uhuru Movement for the past 49 years. In 1972, the African People’s Socialist Party was founded with the expressed goal of reviving and completing the African Revolution of the 1960s. As Chairman Omali Yeshitela notes, the movement had been ideological successful but was militarily defeated through the strategy of US Counterinsurgency. Amongst the counterinsurgency tactics deployed against African people was the assassination and imprisonment of our leaders, the infestation of our community with drugs and guns, and the mass demoralization of African people. The US Counterinsurgency used neocolonialism (white power in black face) and the promotion of Black Capitalist ideologies to mislead and confuse the masses of African people.

The 2021 Convention of the International People’s Democratic Uhuru Movement was entitled It’s 2021, African Workers Unite, Let’s Get it Done. The final panel of this convention was entitled, Completing the Black Revolution. This panel consisted of talks from Akile Anai, director of Agitation and Propaganda for the African People’s Socialist Party, Penny Hess, Chairwoman of the African People’s Solidarity Committee, and Chairman Omali Yeshitela, head of the African People’s Socialist Party and the Uhuru Movement. To hear that panel in its entirety, visit the Burning Spear TV Youtube Channel.

In this episode, Chairman Omali Yeshitela is discusses Capitalism Versus Socialism and what is needed to complete the Black Revolution of the 1960s. He outlines the distinguishes democratic socialism from revolutionary socialist thought, identifies the struggle against colonial-capitalism as the true class struggle, and layouts out what needs to be done to complete the Black Revolution.

This episode also features the song, "Uhuru Means Freedom" by Elikya Ngoma featuring Chairman Omali Yeshitela.

The People's War radio show is produced by WBPU 96.3 FM "Black Power 96" in St. Petersburg, Florida. It is hosted by Dr. Matsemela Odom and Dexter Mlimwengu, bringing an African Internationalist perspective to the important issues of our world.
