This happens every so often, and increasingly as the US empire expanded. It comes as a commingling of domestic and foreign policy: Vietnam, The War In Iraq, and now the Israel-Palestinian slaughter.What happens when the interests of the people clash with the interests of the privileged? Biden will be at Morehouse in two weeks. Between now and then, so much is poised to happen.They’ve literally unleashed police on college students, faculty, observers, and anyone whom the police want to harm. There is no legal justification; this is pure repression. And mass commercial “news” outlets are pushing pure propaganda, no doubt at the behest of owners.Meanwhile, student journalists like at Columbia and UPenn and independent outlets are pushing back. The International Court of Justice could issue arrest warrants for Netanyahu any time now. Israel has seen Columbia and Turkey move to break diplomatic and trade ties. And in Haiti, the attempt to install another US-France-Canada backed interim prime minister has been met with widespread derision.The “elites” (the moneyed and privileged) have lost the power to control the narrative and have dropped all pretenses that they are doing anything other than attempting to suppress by any means necessary.And the end of the school year isn't going to help. Brown and Northwestern had the good sense to put the issue of divestment to a vote, thereby reaching a truce with the students.But we’re headed toward the summer, the presidential contest, and the Dem convention in Chicago. Unlike 1968, where King and RFK assassinations fed a wave of discontent that led to Nixon’s election and the spiral that we have yet to emerge from, there is a real fascist waiting to assume control of the presidency and push us past the brink.We might be living in the events of the moment that will break the experiment, a moment that portends “national suicide.” JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Similar to Benjamin Mays, Dorie Ladner (1943-2024) used to say she was “born to rebel.” She fought for human rights her whole life, transforming Social Structures while also centering her Ways of Knowing and the Governance formations she was raised in as an African person in Mississippi, in the Civil Rights Movement and in global liberation movements. Many US debates about reparations, such as Nicole Hannah-Jones article in this Sunday’s New York Times Magazine, center what Black people believe that the US “owes” Africans descended from US enslavement. Rebelling against an oppressive Social Structure and Repairing oneself and/or community are not the same.

Dr. Greg Carr and Professor Karen Hunter remember the life and legacy of Joe Madison, known as “The Black Eagle,” who passed away on January 31. He was 74.Joe Madison was a leading figure in American talk radio, who made history on multiple occasions, including in 2015 when he broke the Guinness World Record for “longest marathon hosting a radio talk show” (52 hours live). His efforts raised over $250,000 for the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture. In that same year he also became the first national, American talk show in more than 50 years to broadcast live from Cuba.Madison was also a civil rights activist known for staging protests and acts of civil disobedience, and a key figure in the top circles of African American leadership and activism. A native of Dayton, Ohio, he graduated from Washington University in St. Louis, which awarded him an honorary doctorate in 2019. In that same year he was also elected to the National Radio Hall of Fame in recognition of over 40 years in broadcasting. His signature line when people called his show to speak about injustice was “What are you going to do about it?”Madison is survived by his wife, Sherry; his children Jason, Monesha, Shawna and Michelle; his five grandchildren; and one great-grandchild.

With the International Court of Justice telling Israel to adhere to the Genocide Convention (a repudiation of their violence of historic significance), the question is raised, “what are the limits of formal organizations and is our silence in the face of violences complicity?” Alabama killed a death row inmate on Thursday by giving him a nitrogen gas mask instead of oxygen, a first in history. Over half the world’s people (more than 4 billion) live in the more than 60 countries that will hold elections this year, the largest number and percentage in history. But elected governments from India to the U.S. either tolerate or exacerbate inequities, hatreds and violences against specific groups. Can we stop these things? And if so, what will it take?

US white nationalists and market capitalists define “freedom” as the ability to pursue individual goals without state or social restraint. Renewed assaults on basic administrative and frameworks of US and international social structures and “norms” continue to stress individual and small group interests without regard to impact on larger communities and our common humanity. What are the costs of trying to execute these narrow ideological agendas? How do or should we think about “freedom” in our Governance formations and the Social Structures that influence them and in which they persist? As we continue our collective effort to enter 2024 with renewed energy and vision, we take a moment early on to pose the question: What does it mean to be “free,” especially for oppressed people and groups?JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

New York State created a Reparations Commission this week. We are at in the arc of the United States Social Structure. The Colorado State Supreme Court case is open and shut on the 14th Amendment. SCOTUS is no doubt scurrying right now to evade the Constitution in a way that makes Bush v. Gore look like Brown v. Board. They’re tearing up their institutions, even as others are attempting to redefine Social Structures in ways that protect and extend all Governance formations in them.

It is Indigenous People’s Day weekend and Amiri Baraka’s birthday. Dr. Carr and Karen discuss self determination.It’s in the Social Structure’s narrative silences that we are able to form our own structures and grow. How do we nurture self-determination and self-sufficiency when the “Master Narrative” enforces silences about those subjects except when we are used as footnotes in its memory and vision? We are showing that we can and do convene in the seams of the Social Structure and in those seams—those silences—we find each other and build. JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It’s the 161st anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation today. Here we are “freer” than ever in the United States and more detached from collective liberation work than ever. Meanwhile, Social Structure convulsions are surging once again (Murdoch’s Fox teetering, mock book burnings in Missouri, Blum now suing West Point over Affirmative Action, etc.). U.S. Feds announce HBCUs owed at least $16 billion (just over the last 30 years) and white nationalist governors are like, “Whatever!” And outside the U.S., other people and countries are moving more and more independently. Who determines our emancipation? What does it look like? How do we assess progress?JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSummarySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
