The Angryindian Interviews: Kalonji Changa of the FTP Movement

Editor‘s Note: This was another interview I was really looking forward to. The FTP Movement on the Ning network has plenty of activity but one element stands out heads and shoulders above the crowd, the site originator Bro. Kalonji Changa.

I have watched this busy young man use the democratic power of the Internet to dispel and dislodge the rumour that African men are not concerned with uplifting their own people and other oppressed populations across the world. I admire his tenacity, his organisational skills and the clarity of his political perspective and it shows in his sincere efforts to raise the consciousness and condition of the African Diaspora. Let this brief interview lead you to learn more at the FTP Movement. It‘s more than just another social networking community for African folks, its a movement making inroads in freedom of the African mind. Get on board.

Aboriginal News Service (IANS) Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine

Press Release: IANS Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine


Intelligent Aboriginal News Service (IANS) Statement on the Gaza Crisis in Occupied Palestine

1.6.2009

“Total war is no longer war waged by all members of one national community against all those of another. It is total… because it may well involve the whole world.”

Jean-Paul Sartre

As Indigenous people fully conscious of our own respective colonial circumstances and those of other similarly repressed and oppressed peoples, we, the undersigned, maintain that the latest saturation bombing and subsequent ground invasion of a Palestinian refugee concentration camp is not just and that the continued IDF occupation extends this grave injustice. The defenceless people of The Gaza, a refugee district of Occupied Palestine, have been mercilessly attacked by the State of Israel under the auspices of national “self-defence.” This is clearly a false pretence, as it is now known that the Israeli intelligence and military services secretly planned this attack more than six months ago as part of “Operation Cast Lead”,[1] a covert programme of anti-Palestinian propaganda, premeditated sabotage of the Hamas government during the U.S.-sponsored June 2007 truce agreement and extensive ethnic terrorism directed against the refugee Arab Palestinian population of The Gaza. It is also now common knowledge that the Israeli Defence Forces have begun using cluster bombs, denatured uranium and the horrible chemical weapon, white phosphorus, a compound that burns human beings on contact.[2]
