Seeing Red Radio: Black Panther Party, Zionist Racism in the Knesset and the Winnipeg General Strike

(Essential history of the BPP)

Black Panther Party, Zionist Racism in the Knesset and the Winnipeg General Strike
Seeing Red Radio

Seeing Red remembers the Black Panther Party, featuring the voices of Huey Newton, Bobby Seale, Bobby Rush, Fred Hampton and others. We follow with Israel’s right-wing coalition lashing out at Israeli Arabs in the Knesset with a trio of bills that would criminalize any commemoration of the Nakba, any refusal to recognize Israel as a “Jewish state”, and demand of Israeli Arabs to sign loyalty oaths or lose their citizenship. Finally, we remember the Winnipeg General Strike of 1919.
