Black History Month : W.E.B. DuBois - A Recorded Audiobiography

W.E.B. DuBois Recorded an Autobiography For Pacifica Radio's KPFA.

W.E.B. DuBois founded the N.A.A.C.P. in 1909.
I think this W.E.B, DuBois quote is relevant for everyone in 2025...

"Either the United States will destroy ignorance or ignorance will destroy the United States." -- "Niagara Movement Speech," W.E.B. DuBois - 1905.

Pacifica Radio aired W.E.B. DuBois' Recorded Autobiography from KPFA in July 27, 1964.

Jews Reject Genocide of Palestinians in the New York Times

jewishvoiceforpeace:

"Jews say NO to ethnic cleansing! We’re proud to see so many members of the JVP Rabbinical Council represented among the 350 rabbis who took out this full-page ad in the New York Times today, using their voices in this moment to oppose Trump’s plans for the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza.

This is a critical moment in history. As the US and Israeli governments push forward with plans for the forced removal of Palestinians from Gaza, Jewish voices must be clear and unwavering: We say no to ethnic cleansing and to genocide. We urge all who stand for justice to:

—Share this message widely and amplify the voices of those taking a stand. Post a picture of the ad with the message that it speaks for you!

—Donate to organizations directly supporting Palestinians’ ability to remain in their homeland and rebuild their lives.

—Contact elected officials and demand they oppose US support for ethnic cleansing and genocide."
