"When the state targets one of us, they target all of us." In this urgent episode of Black Power Media, host Kalonji Changa sits down with renowned immigration attorney Zoila Velasquez to pull back the veil on the "ICE Invasions." We move beyond the headlines to discuss the aggressive, often illegal tactics used by Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the devastating ripple effects these operations have on our neighborhoods. From the tragic case of Renee Nicole Good to the systemic targeting of the Black Diaspora, we explore why the current immigration apparatus is a threat to the safety of every person of color, regardless of status. #ImmigrationRights #ICEInvasions #SocialJustice #TrueCrime #ReneeNicole Good #BlackPowerMedia #KalonjiChanga #ZoilaVelasquez

Why Black People Can’t Ignore The Venezuela Invasion As global tensions rise, the struggle for sovereignty in Venezuela isn't just a South American issue—it is a critical frontline for the African Diaspora. In this episode of BPM LIVE, we break down why the defense of Venezuelan self-determination is inextricably linked to the global Black liberation movement. Join hosts Kalonji Changa and Rakeem Shabazz as they welcome a powerhouse panel of organizers and truth-tellers to dissect the geopolitical stakes, the history of U.S. intervention, and the impact on Afro-Venezuelan communities. Our Guests: Margaret Kimberley: Executive Editor of Black Agenda Report and author of Prejudential. Charles Barron: Former NYC Council Member and lifelong revolutionary activist. In This Episode, We Discuss: The connection between Imperialism abroad and State Violence at home. The role of the Black radical tradition in opposing U.S. hegemony. Why corporate media erases the voices of Afro-Venezuelans. What a "threat to democracy" actually looks like through a Pan-African lens. #Venezuela #MargaretKimberley #CharlesBarron #PanAfricanist #AntiImperialism #BlackAgendaReport #KalonjiChanga #GlobalSolidarity #BlackPowerMedia

Streamed Live: Jan 3, 2026 The masks are off. In the early hours of this morning, January 3rd, the world woke up to the sound of "Shock and Awe" in the Western Hemisphere. The Trump administration has confirmed a massive military strike on Caracas, claiming the "capture" of President Nicolás Maduro and First Lady Cilia Flores.   While the corporate media parrots White House talking points about "narco-terrorism" and "liberation," Black Power Media is here to provide the radical, Pan-African, and anti-imperialist analysis you won't find anywhere else. Is this the 1989 invasion of Panama all over again? Is this a desperate move by the Empire to secure the world's largest oil reserves as the global order shifts? Join Kalonji Changa and Bouna Eddine for a high-level emergency broadcast. We are joined by an elite panel of revolutionary thinkers: Dhoruba Bin Wahad: Veteran Black Panther and political prisoner, bringing the perspective of the Long War against domestic and global counter-intelligence. Ajamu Baraka: National Organizer for the Black Alliance for Peace (BAP), breaking down the Monroe Doctrine 2.0 and the threat to the "Zone of Peace." Wyna Tahboub: Internationalist activist, connecting the dots between the siege of Gaza and the bombardment of the Venezuelan barrios. WE DISCUSS: The capture of Maduro: A legal extradition or an international kidnapping? How the "drug war" is being used as a Trojan Horse for resource extraction. What this means for the Black and Indigenous masses of Venezuela who have vowed to resist. The domestic fallout: How war abroad always leads to increased repression of the Black radical movement at home.

✊🏿 New Year Revolution: Pan-African/Antifascist Resistance in 2026 Welcome to a special Black Power Media broadcast as we enter a pivotal year for the global Black movement. As we cross the threshold into 2026, the mandate for radical resistance and Pan-African solidarity has never been more urgent. Today, we are honored to be joined by Ajamu Baraka, National Organizer for the Black Alliance for Peace and Dhoruba Bin Wahad, veteran Black Panther Party leader, political prisoner, and lifelong revolutionary strategist. The two of them will analyze the current landscape of empire and the intensifying contradictions under the current administration. 📜 Roots of Resistance: Lessons from Our Ancestors To understand where we are going, we must ground ourselves in the victories and struggles of those who came before us. In this broadcast, we revisit three monumental anniversaries of revolutionary defiance: Haitian Independence (1804): The only successful slave revolution in history that shattered the myth of white supremacy and created the first free Black republic. The Cuban Revolution (January 1, 1959): The victory of the 26th of July Movement, which proved that a determined people can overthrow a U.S.-backed dictatorship and build a sovereign state dedicated to the masses. The Zapatista Uprising (January 1, 1994): The "Ya Basta!" heard 'round the world that challenged neoliberalism and reminded us that indigenous and peasant autonomy is central to the global struggle. 🚩 Looking Ahead: 2026 and the Fight Against Fascism With a domestic landscape defined by increasing repression and the global consolidation of far-right forces, what does "resistance" look like in 2026? We discuss: Navigating the policies of the current administration and their impact on the African Diaspora. The necessity of a United Front against domestic and international fascism. Building independent Black political power outside of the corporate duopoly.

Oh SNAP! “They are cutting food” Operation Starvation and the Criminalization of a Nation… #blackpowermedia #thebreakdown #kalonjichanga

US policing's historical roots trace back to Southern Slave Patrols (1700s), whose job was terror, capture, and enforcing brutal laws. Post-Civil War, Southern police continued this legacy of racial oppression & enforced Jim Crow. The function of Slave Catchers is paralleled today by ICE, which also pursues, detains, and creates fear in targeted communities, enforcing laws critics see as discriminatory and inhumane, often leading to family separation. #blackpowermedia #policeterrorism ##ftpmovement #kalonjichanga #thebreakdown
