Media Advisory
Pan-African Journal Worldwide Radio Program Now Broadcasting Over http://cprmetro.blogspot.com/ in New York City
To listen to the February 4, 2013 edition of the New York City version of the Pan-African Journal, hosted by Abayomi Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire, just click on the website here: http://cprmetro.blogspot.com/
Abayomi Azikiwe is now broadcasting on CPRMetro.org radio station based in Metropolitan New York. Azikiwe, editor of the Pan-African News Wire, re-started the Pan-African Journal as a blogtalkradio program in October 2010.
In January of 2013 the Pan-African Radio Network was formed to better focus and promote the Pan-African Journal over blogtalkradio. During this same time period, Bernard White, a longtime New York-based radio and television producer, program director and host, invited Azikiwe to develop a version of the Pan-African Journal over this one-year-old Community Progressive Radio medium.
The program is in its third week. The most recent program, linked above, addresses the Israeli bombing of Syria, the visit to Detroit of the Venezuelan Consul General Jesus Rodriguez-Espinoza of Chicago, as well as detailed reports on the current situations in Egypt, Mali and Niger.
This edition of the program also examines the possible motivating factors for French and United States imperialist military interventions in West Africa and the continent as a whole. The program concludes with a brief tribute to the late Amilcar Cabral, founder of the PAIGC of Guinea Bissau, on the 40th anniversary of his assassination in January 1973.
These programs will be developed weekly and aired on numerous occasions over CPRMetro.org. Please listen to this broadcast and tune in to this new media outlet which also broadcasts other excellent programs dealing with political, economic, social and cultural issues from both a historical and contemporary perspective.
Mr. Abayomi Azikiwe at the United States Social Forum in Detroit June 2010.

Based on police reports of Leslie’s actions, which were not in dispute, the judge found Leslie “guilty,” and asked if she/ze had anything to say before sentencing.
Leslie said: “I am a revolutionary journalist and member of the National Writers Union, UAW Local 1981. I am not guilty of any wrongdoing. I delivered the people’s verdict on the jailhouse walls. The real crimes are going on behind the walls where CeCe McDonald is imprisoned.”
“By sentencing CeCe McDonald to prison, Minneapolis sent a green light to neo-fascists at a time of growing racist lynching and massacres in the U.S. CeCe was attacked and survived at a time when an increasing number of transwomen of color are being assaulted and murdered.
“Racist mass incarceration is the crime, as even a former Hennepin County prosecutor admitted in an article–that Minnesota has the greatest racist disparity in sentencing of any state in the U.S.
“The world is watching CeCe McDonald’s struggle. I’m proud to add my voice to the tens of thousands of people who demand: Free CeCe!”
The judge admitted that Leslie’s action was an act of “civil disobedience.”
Then the judge stayed the imposition of sentence for 2 years. During that time, Leslie is on informal probation. This means if Leslie is not convicted of any additional “property damage” for 24 months, the 3rd degree gross misdemeanor charge will be dismissed.
The prosecutor did not pursue court expenses or a fine. Leslie walked out of the courtroom without having to perform community service or report to a probation officer.
Leslie was ordered to pay more than $1300 for the erasure of the political demand she/ze wrote on the wall. Leslie stated after court, “I refuse to pay for the censorship of the political demand Free CeCe Now!
Local Free CeCe organizers were present in the courtroom. Many CeCe supporters in the U.S. and around the world sent tweets, e-mails, faxes, and made phone calls to help deliver the people’s verdict–Free CeCe!–to the Minneapolis mayor and prosecutor.
