http://www.vladtv.com - Rapper Mopreme Shakur - son and nephew of Mutulu and Assata Shakur, respectively, hasn't been in contact with aunt throughout the majority of his life but stays in weekly contact with his father, both of who have been under the watchful eye of law enforcement for decades. "I haven't talked to her since I was a kid," Mopreme recalls.
"Now consider this," he began. "This is 2015. Law enforcement is off the m***********g chain - they're shooting young, Black males in the back, in the front [and] hopping on the cars and shoot[ing] them - just imagine how much worse the cops were [back then]." When it comes to his Aunt Assata's situation, he says "perception is everything."
"I was not there. I don't know exactly what happened but you have to take into consideration the times, the White supremacy [and] the power dynamic and sometimes, someone you think is guilty is innocent." As far as so many people "supported her position" by aiding and abetting a wanted fugitive, he says people back in her time "had a strong constitution. They were willing to go farther than - it seems - people are willing to go now to fight for what's right...It's just messed up."
When it comes to Mopreme's father Mutulu, he says "It's a real anxious time" for him and his family because "next April he'll be eligible to be free" under newer laws. "We're keeping our prayers up and staying positive," Mopreme states regarding Mutulu Shakur's 60-year sentence. Mutulu was captured and charged in Los Angeles, California back in 1986 for multiple homicides, bank robberies and "allegedly" helping Assata break out of prison. When asked how his father "allegedly" assisted in her escape, Mopreme says he did it "very skillfully, without a shot fired." "He's paid his debt to society," Mopreme expresses, adding that you don't see a lot of people like his father in this day and age.

http://www.democracynow.org - The FBI has added the former Black Panther Assata Shakur to its Most Wanted Terrorist List 40 years after the killing for which she was convicted. Born Joanne Chesimard, Shakur was found guilty of shooting dead a New Jersey state trooper during a gunfight in 1973. Shakur has long proclaimed her innocence and accused federal authorities of political persecution. She escaped from prison in 1979 and received political asylum in Cuba. On Thursday, she became the first woman added to the FBI's terrorist list and the reward for her capture was doubled to $2 million. We begin our coverage by airing Shakur's reading of an open letter she wrote to Pope John Paul II during his trip to Cuba in 1998 after the FBI asked him to urge her extradition. "As a result of being targeted by [the FBI program] COINTELPRO, I was faced with the threat of prison, underground, exile or death," Shakur said at the time. "I am not the first, nor the last, person to be victimized by the New Jersey system of 'justice.' The New Jersey State Police are infamous for their racism and brutality."

http://www.democracynow.org - One day after the exiled former Black Panther Assata Shakur became the first woman named to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List, we're joined by another legendary African-American activist, Angela Davis, as well as Shakur's longtime attorney, Lennox Hinds. Davis, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, is the subject of the recent film, "Free Angela & All Political Prisoners." She argues that the FBI's latest move, much like its initial targeting of Shakur and other Black Panthers four decades ago, is politically motivated. "It seems to me that this act incorporates or reflects the very logic of terrorism," Davis says. "I can't help but think that it's designed to frighten people who are involved in struggles today. Forty years ago seems like it was a long time ago. In the beginning of the 21st century, we're still fighting around the very same issues -- police violence, health care, education, people in prison." A professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, Hinds has represented Shakur since 1973. "This is a political act pushed by the state of New Jersey, by some members of Congress from Miami, and with the intent of putting pressure on the Cuban government and to inflame public opinion," Hinds says. "There is no way to appeal someone being put on the terrorist list."

"Like most poor people in the United States, I have no voice. The Black press and the progressive media, as well as Black civil rights organizations, have historically played an essential role in the struggle for social justice. We should continue and expand that tradition. We should create media outlets that help to educate our people and our children, and not annihilate their minds. I am only one woman. I own no TV stations or radio stations or newspapers. But I believe that people need to be educated as to what is going on and to understand the connection between the news media and the instruments of repression in America. All I have are my voice, my spirit and the will to tell the truth. But I sincerely ask those of you in the Black media, t hose of you in the progressive media and those of you who believe in truth and freedom to publish my story.' -Assata Shakur
The Eyes of the Rainbow
Assata Shakur and Oya
(used with permission from the producers)
An English language documentary
by the independent video group Imagines del Caribe
Gloria Rolando, Director: Havana, Cuba
Video, color, 47 min, 1997
Director of Photography: Raul Rodriguez, Jose M. Riera
Script and Director: Gloria Rolando
Assistant Director: Tony Romero
"Eyes of the Rainbow" deals with the life of Assata Shakur, the Black Panther and Black Liberation Army leader who escaped from prison and was given political asylum in Cuba, where she has lived for close to 15 years. In it we visit with Assata in Havana and she tells us about her history and her life in Cuba. This film is also about Assata's AfroCuban context, including the Yoruba Orisha Oya, goddess of the ancestors, of war, of the cemetery and of the rainbow. Gloria Rolando on "Eyes of the Rainbow":
"In the struggle of the African American people, many women's voices in the past and the present have always called for social justice, women who throughout the years have shown integrity and firmness in their principles. For this reason, "The Eyes of the Rainbow" is dedicated to all women who struggle for a better world.
One of those voices that already forms a part of the history of the African American people is that of Assata Shakur. In the documentary "The Eyes of the Rainbow," she recounts aspects of her path as relentless warrior. We are able to create a meeting with Assata Shakur through the symbols of AfroCuban culture, which offer us beautiful songs evoking the ancestors.
Representations of the Yoruba warrior orishas such as Oya and Ochosi support the discourse of this story, which also has its moments of poetry and tenderness as in the dance of Oshun, through which is illustrated Assata's decision to become mother while still in prison.
The blues interpreted by Junius Williams and his "Magic Harp," the songs of Sweet Honey in the Rocks, and the Cuban group "Vocal Baobab" give a special stamp to this valiant testimony which defines the spirit of struggle in the African American woman."
Assistant Director: Antonio Romero
Special performances:

NEWARK, N.J. -- The reward for the capture and return of a fugitive member of a black militant group convicted of murdering a New Jersey state trooper was doubled to $2 million on Thursday, the 40th anniversary of the bloody gunbattle.
The FBI also announced it has made Joanne Chesimard, now living in Cuba as Assata Shakur, the first woman on its list of most wanted terrorists.
"She continues to flaunt her freedom in the face of this horrific crime," State Police Superintendent Col. Rick Fuentes said at a news conference Thursday. Fuentes called the case "an open wound" for troopers in New Jersey and around the country.
The Justice Department has offered a $1 million reward for information leading to her capture. The additional money is being put up by the state of New Jersey through civil and criminal forfeiture funds and won't fall on taxpayers, state Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa said.
Chesimard, a member of the violent Black Liberation Army, was convicted of the 1973 murder of state trooper Werner Foerster during a traffic stop. The BLA was responsible for killing more than a dozen police officers in the 1970s and `80s, said agent Aaron Ford of the FBI's Newark division.
According to Fuentes, Foerster and his partner stopped a car carrying Chesimard and two cohorts on the New Jersey Turnpike for a broken tail light. When the troopers approached the car, a gunfight ensued and both troopers were injured. Chesimard then took Foerster's gun and shot him twice in the head as he lay on the ground.
She was convicted in 1977 but escaped from prison in New Jersey in November 1979 with the help of accomplices. She spent the next few years living in safe houses, two of which were in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, before surfacing in Cuba in 1984, Fuentes said.
In Cuba, Chesimard has continued to espouse her anti-U.S. views in speeches advocating "revolution and terrorism" and may have connections to other international terrorist organizations, Ford said.
"She is a domestic terrorist who murdered a law enforcement officer execution style," he said. "And while we can't right the wrongs of the past, we can and will continue to pursue justice no matter how long it takes."

Hands Off Assata Shakur!
NBC Reports:
HAVANA — Cuban President Raul Castro on Saturday demanded that the United States respect Cuba's communist rule as the two countries work toward normalizing diplomatic ties. President Barack Obama this week reset Washington's Cold War-era policy on Cuba and the two countries swapped prisoners in a historic deal after 18 months of secret talks.
U.S. officials will visit Havana in January to start talks on normalization, and Obama has said his government will push Cuba on issues of human and political rights as they negotiate over the coming months. Castro said Saturday he is open to discussing a wide range of issues but that they should also cover the United States and he stressed that Cuba would not be giving up its socialist principles.
"In the same way that we have never demanded that the United States change its political system, we will demand respect for ours," Castro told Cuba's National Assembly in a session that turned into a celebration of resistance to U.S. aggression.
The National Assembly also gave a standing ovation to the three men convicted of spying in the U.S. and were freed as part of the prisoner swap. Sitting behind them was Elian Gonzalez, who in 2000 became internationally known when a custody battle between his Cuban father and American relatives in Miami became a diplomatic incident.

Assata Olugbala Shakur (born July 16, 1947 as JoAnne Deborah Byron, married name Chesimard) is an African-American activist and escaped convict who was a member of the Black Panther Party (BPP) and Black Liberation Army (BLA). Between 1971 and 1973, Shakur was accused of several crimes and made the subject of a multi-state manhunt.
In May 1973 Shakur was involved in a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike, during which New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster and BLA member Zayd Malik Shakur were killed and Shakur and Trooper James Harper were wounded. Between 1973 and 1977, Shakur was indicted in relation to six other alleged criminal incidents—charged with murder, attempted murder, armed robbery, bank robbery, and kidnapping—resulting in three acquittals and three dismissals. In 1977, she was convicted of the first-degree murder of Foerster and of seven other felonies related to the shootout.
Shakur was then incarcerated in several prisons, where her treatment drew criticism from some human rights groups. She escaped from prison in 1979 and has been living in Cuba in political asylum since 1984. Since May 2, 2005, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has classified her as a "domestic terrorist" and offered a $1 million reward for assistance in her capture. Attempts to extradite her have resulted in letters to the Pope and a Congressional resolution. Shakur is the step-aunt of the deceased hip hop icon Tupac Shakur, the stepson of her brother Mutulu Shakur. Her life has been portrayed in literature, film and song.

Angela Davis (born January 26, 1944) is an American political activist, scholar, and author. Davis emerged as a nationally prominent activist and radical in the 1960s, as a leader of the Communist Party USA and Black Panther Party, and through her association with the Civil Rights Movement. Prisoner rights have been among her continuing interests; she is the founder of "Critical Resistance", an organization working to abolish the prison-industrial complex. She is a retired professor with the History of Consciousness Department at the University of California, Santa Cruz and is the former director of the university's Feminist Studies department. Her research interests are in feminism, African American studies, critical theory, Marxism, popular music and social consciousness, and the philosophy and history of punishment and prisons.
Her membership in the Communist Party led to Ronald Reagan's request in 1969 to have her barred from teaching at any university in the State of California. She was tried and acquitted of suspected involvement in the Soledad brothers' August 1970 abduction and murder of Judge Harold Haley in Marin County, California.

Alice Malsenior Walker (born February 9, 1944) is an American author, poet, and activist. She has written both fiction and essays about race and gender. She is best known for the critically acclaimed novel The Color Purple (1982) for which she won the National Book Award and the Pulitzer Prize.
Walker was born in Eatonton, Georgia, the youngest of eight children, to Willie Lee Walker and Minnie Lou Tallulah Grant. Her father, who was, in her words, "wonderful at math but a terrible farmer," earned only $300 a year from sharecropping and dairy farming. Her mother supplemented the family income by working as a maid. She worked 11 hours a day for USD $17 per week to help pay for Alice to attend college.
Living under Jim Crow Laws, Walker's parents resisted landlords who expected the children of black sharecroppers to work the fields at a young age. A white plantation owner said to her that black people had “no need for education.” Minnie Lou Walker said, "You might have some black children somewhere, but they don’t live in this house. Don’t you ever come around here again talking about how my children don’t need to learn how to read and write.” Her mother enrolled Alice in first grade at the age of four.

http://www.democracynow.org - One day after the exiled former Black Panther Assata Shakur became the first woman named to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List, we're joined by another legendary African-American activist, Angela Davis, as well as Shakur's longtime attorney, Lennox Hinds. Davis, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, is the subject of the recent film, "Free Angela & All Political Prisoners." She argues that the FBI's latest move, much like its initial targeting of Shakur and other Black Panthers four decades ago, is politically motivated. "It seems to me that this act incorporates or reflects the very logic of terrorism," Davis says. "I can't help but think that it's designed to frighten people who are involved in struggles today. Forty years ago seems like it was a long time ago. In the beginning of the 21st century, we're still fighting around the very same issues -- police violence, health care, education, people in prison." A professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, Hinds has represented Shakur since 1973. "This is a political act pushed by the state of New Jersey, by some members of Congress from Miami, and with the intent of putting pressure on the Cuban government and to inflame public opinion," Hinds says. "There is no way to appeal someone being put on the terrorist list." Democracy Now!, is an independent global news hour that airs weekdays on 1,100+ TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.

According to Fuentes, Foerster and his partner stopped a car carrying Chesimard and two cohorts on the New Jersey Turnpike for a broken tail light. When the troopers approached the car, a gunfight ensued and both troopers were injured. Chesimard then took Foerster's gun and shot him twice in the head as he lay on the ground. She was convicted in 1977 but escaped from prison in New Jersey in November 1979 with the help of accomplices. She spent the next few years living in safe houses, two of which were in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, before surfacing in Cuba in 1984, Fuentes said. In Cuba, Chesimard has continued to espouse her anti-U.S. views in speeches advocating "revolution and terrorism" and may have connections to other international terrorist organizations, Ford said. "She is a domestic terrorist who murdered a law enforcement officer execution style," he said. "And while we can't right the wrongs of the past, we can and will continue to pursue justice no matter how long it takes." -

Hands Off Assata Shakur! Raul Castro Tells U.S. To Respect Cuba's Political SystemHands Off Assata Shakur! Raul Castro Tells U.S. To Respect Cuba's Political System
Hands Off Assata Shakur! NBC Reports: HAVANA — Cuban President Raul Castro on Saturday demanded that the United States respect Cuba's communist rule as the two countries work toward normalizing diplomatic ties. President Barack Obama this week reset Washington's Cold War-era policy on Cuba and the two countries swapped prisoners in a historic deal after 18 months of secret talks. U.S. officials will visit Havana in January to start talks on normalization, and Obama has said his government will push Cuba on issues of human and political rights as they negotiate over the coming months. Castro said Saturday he is open to discussing a wide range of issues but that they should also cover the United States and he stressed that Cuba would not be giving up its socialist principles. "In the same way that we have never demanded that the United States change its political system, we will demand respect for ours," Castro told Cuba's National Assembly in a session that turned into a celebration of resistance to U.S. aggression. The National Assembly also gave a standing ovation to the three men convicted of spying in the U.S. and were freed as part of the prisoner swap. Sitting behind them was Elian Gonzalez, who in 2000 became internationally known when a custody battle between his Cuban father and American relatives in Miami became a diplomatic incident. http://www.allblackmedia.com -

Make Sure to Subscribe to the New J.KNIGHT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnLrtqd5qxC_f1lOnrybpnA While a member of the Black Liberation Army, Shakur, then Joanne Chesimard, was involved in an incident in which New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster was shot during a traffic stop. She was convicted in 1977 but managed to escape prison. Shakur has since fled to Cuba, where she has remained in sanctuary even as she retained her spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted list. In December, when President Obama announced a new era of thawed relations with Cuba, after fifty years of isolation, Shakur’s case regained the national spotlight, with several top conservatives, including New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez calling for Cuba to hand her over. They and other officials have asked for Shakur’s return to be a requirement of renewed diplomatic ties between the two countries. http://thegrio.com/2015/03/04/cuba-stands-their-ground-wont-return-assata-shakur/ -

Mopreme on Assata Shakur's Wanted Status: Perception is Key

"I haven't talked to her since I was a kid," Mopreme recalls. "Now consider this," he began. "This is 2015. Law enforcement is off the m***********g chain - they're shooting young, Black males in the back, in the front [and] hopping on the cars and shoot[ing] them - just imagine how much worse the cops were [back then]." When it comes to his Aunt Assata's situation, he says "perception is everything." "I was not there. I don't know exactly what happened but you have to take into consideration the... -
Assata Shakur in Her Own Words: Rare Recording of Activist Named to FBI Most Wanted Terrorist List
http://www.democracynow.org - The FBI has added the former Black Panther Assata Shakur to its Most Wanted Terrorist List 40 years after the killing for which she was convicted. Born Joanne Chesimard, Shakur was found guilty of shooting dead a New Jersey state trooper during a gunfight in 1973. Shakur has long proclaimed her innocence and accused federal authorities of political persecution. She escaped from prison in 1979 and received political asylum in Cuba. On Thursday, she became the first woman added to the FBI's terrorist list and the reward for her capture was doubled to $2 million. We begin our coverage by airing Shakur's reading of an open letter she wrote to Pope John Paul II during his trip to Cuba in 1998 after the FBI asked him to urge her extradition. "As a result of being ta... -
Angela Davis and Assata Shakur's Lawyer Denounce FBI's Adding of Exiled Activist to Terrorist List
http://www.democracynow.org - One day after the exiled former Black Panther Assata Shakur became the first woman named to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List, we're joined by another legendary African-American activist, Angela Davis, as well as Shakur's longtime attorney, Lennox Hinds. Davis, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, is the subject of the recent film, "Free Angela & All Political Prisoners." She argues that the FBI's latest move, much like its initial targeting of Shakur and other Black Panthers four decades ago, is politically motivated. "It seems to me that this act incorporates or reflects the very logic of terrorism," Davis says. "I can't help but think that it's designed to frighten people who are involved in struggles today. Forty years ago seems like... -

We should continue and expand that tradition. We should create media outlets that help to educate our people and our children, and not annihilate their minds. I am only one woman. I own no TV stations or radio stations or newspapers. But I believe that people need to be educated as to what is going on and to understand the connection between the news media and the instruments of repression in America. All I have are my voice, my spirit and the will to tell the truth. But I sincerely ask those of you in the Black media, t hose of you in the progressive media and tho... -
Will Assata Shakur be extradited from Cuba?
She's a convicted domestic terrorist who executed a state trooper according to the FBI. Joanne Chesimard has lived in Cuba for nearly 30 years.

Obama Restores Diplomatic Relations With Cuba; Greenlight To Hunt Assata Shakur?
WASHINGTON, D.C. – President Barack Obama’s announcement on Wednesday that the United States would restore diplomatic relations with Cuba after more than 50 years of hostility drew the ire of two prominent Cuban-American members of New Jersey’s Congressional delegation. Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and U.S. Rep. Albio Sires (D-8) expressed relief that Alan Gross, a U.S. government subcontractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) who was arrested in 2009 and accused of being a U.S. spy after allegedly supplying satellite photos and computer equipment to members of Cuba’s Jewish community, was released on Wednesday.

Alice Walker: Adding Assata Shakur to FBI Most Wanted Terrorists List is an Attack on Cuba
Watch the full interview with Alice walker on Democracy Now! at http://bit.ly/1539uwn. Author, poet and activist Alice Walker responds to the recent addition of former Black Panther Assata Shakur to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list 40 years after the killing for which she was convicted. ALICE WALKER: I see it as an attack, really, a sort of covert sneaky attack on Cuba. I think that the governments, all of them, in recent memory, have wanted to destroy the Cuban people, really, and their insistence on their freedom and their dignity. And I think this is a way of saying that, you know, you have a, quote, "terrorist" there, and we have a right to go in and get her. And so, this could cause a very big fight between these countries, which have never had peace in my lifetime. Democracy N... -
Assata Shakur: Havana Agrees to Resolve Cases of US Fugitives Living In Cuba
Make Sure to Subscribe to the New J.KNIGHT Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnLrtqd5qxC_f1lOnrybpnA A female former member of the Black Panthers who fled to Cuba to escape US justice could be at the centre of discussions between Havana and Washington to normalise relations between the two countries. President Barack Obama said Cuba had agreed to help resolve the cases of several US fugitives living in Cuba. Among those whom Cuba has previously refused to extradite is Assata Shakur. Ms Shakur, whose married name was Chesimard, spent time in US jails over charges relating to a shoot-out on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973 in which a New Jersey State Trooper was killed.

Assata Shakur: What Does New U.S.-Cuba Pact Mean for Exiled Black Panther Wanted in New Jersey?
http://democracynow.org - Authorities in New Jersey have said they hope a historic warming of ties between the United States and Cuba will help them capture and imprison Black Panther Assata Shakur. "We view any changes in relations with Cuba as an opportunity to bring her back to the United States to finish her sentence for the murder of a New Jersey State Trooper in 1973," said State Police Superintendent Colonel Rick Fuentes. The encounter left both the officer and a fellow Black Panther, Zayd Malik Shakur, dead. Shakur has said she was shot by police with both arms in the air, and then again from the back. She was sentenced to life in prison but managed to escape and flee to Cuba, where she has lived since 1984. What will happen to Assata now? We put the question to two attorneys: Mich... -

http://www.vladtv.com - Rapper Mopreme Shakur - son and nephew of Mutulu and Assata Shakur, respectively, hasn't been in contact with aunt throughout the majority of his life but stays in weekly contact with his father, both of who have been under the watchful eye of law enforcement for decades. "I haven't talked to her since I was a kid," Mopreme recalls.
"Now consider this," he began. "This is 2015. Law enforcement is off the m***********g chain - they're shooting young, Black males in the back, in the front [and] hopping on the cars and shoot[ing] them - just imagine how much worse the cops were [back then]." When it comes to his Aunt Assata's situation, he says "perception is everything."
"I was not there. I don't know exactly what happened but you have to take into consideration the times, the White supremacy [and] the power dynamic and sometimes, someone you think is guilty is innocent." As far as so many people "supported her position" by aiding and abetting a wanted fugitive, he says people back in her time "had a strong constitution. They were willing to go farther than - it seems - people are willing to go now to fight for what's right...It's just messed up."
When it comes to Mopreme's father Mutulu, he says "It's a real anxious time" for him and his family because "next April he'll be eligible to be free" under newer laws. "We're keeping our prayers up and staying positive," Mopreme states regarding Mutulu Shakur's 60-year sentence. Mutulu was captured and charged in Los Angeles, California back in 1986 for multiple homicides, bank robberies and "allegedly" helping Assata break out of prison. When asked how his father "allegedly" assisted in her escape, Mopreme says he did it "very skillfully, without a shot fired." "He's paid his debt to society," Mopreme expresses, adding that you don't see a lot of people like his father in this day and age.

As far as so many people "supported her position" by aiding and abetting a wanted fugitive, he says people back in her time "had a strong constitution. They were willing to go farther than - it seems - people are willing to go now to fight for what's right...It's just messed up."
When it comes to Mopreme's father Mutulu, he says "It's a real anxious time" for him and his family because "next April he'll be eligible to be free" under newer laws. "We're keeping our prayers up and staying positive," Mopreme states regarding Mutulu Shakur's 60-year sentence. Mutulu was captured and charged in Los Angeles, California back in 1986 for multiple homicides, bank robberies and "allegedly" helping Assata break out of prison. When asked how his father "allegedly" assisted in her escape, Mopreme says he did it "very skillfully, without a shot fired." "He's paid his debt to society," Mopreme expresses, adding that you don't see a lot of people like his father in this day and age.

http://www.democracynow.org - The FBI has added the former Black Panther Assata Shakur to its Most Wanted Terrorist List 40 years after the killing for which she was convicted. Born Joanne Chesimard, Shakur was found guilty of shooting dead a New Jersey state trooper during a gunfight in 1973. Shakur has long proclaimed her innocence and accused federal authorities of political persecution. She escaped from prison in 1979 and received political asylum in Cuba. On Thursday, she became the first woman added to the FBI's terrorist list and the reward for her capture was doubled to $2 million. We begin our coverage by airing Shakur's reading of an open letter she wrote to Pope John Paul II during his trip to Cuba in 1998 after the FBI asked him to urge her extradition. "As a result of being targeted by [the FBI program] COINTELPRO, I was faced with the threat of prison, underground, exile or death," Shakur said at the time. "I am not the first, nor the last, person to be victimized by the New Jersey system of 'justice.' The New Jersey State Police are infamous for their racism and brutality."

http://www.democracynow.org - One day after the exiled former Black Panther Assata Shakur became the first woman named to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List, we're joined by another legendary African-American activist, Angela Davis, as well as Shakur's longtime attorney, Lennox Hinds. Davis, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, is the subject of the recent film, "Free Angela & All Political Prisoners." She argues that the FBI's latest move, much like its initial targeting of Shakur and other Black Panthers four decades ago, is politically motivated. "It seems to me that this act incorporates or reflects the very logic of terrorism," Davis says. "I can't help but think that it's designed to frighten people who are involved in struggles today. Forty years ago seems like it was a long time ago. In the beginning of the 21st century, we're still fighting around the very same issues -- police violence, health care, education, people in prison." A professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, Hinds has represented Shakur since 1973. "This is a political act pushed by the state of New Jersey, by some members of Congress from Miami, and with the intent of putting pressure on the Cuban government and to inflame public opinion," Hinds says. "There is no way to appeal someone being put on the terrorist list."

"Like most poor people in the United States, I have no voice. The Black press and the progressive media, as well as Black civil rights organizations, have historically played an essential role in the struggle for social justice. We should continue and expand that tradition. We should create media outlets that help to educate our people and our children, and not annihilate their minds. I am only one woman. I own no TV stations or radio stations or newspapers. But I believe that people need to be educated as to what is going on and to understand the connection between the news media and the instruments of repression in America. All I have are my voice, my spirit and the will to tell the truth. But I sincerely ask those of you in the Black media, t hose of you in the progressive media and those of you who believe in truth and freedom to publish my story.' -Assata Shakur
The Eyes of the Rainbow
Assata Shakur and Oya
(used with permission from the producers)
An English language documentary
by the independent video group Imagines del Caribe
Gloria Rolando, Director: Havana, Cuba
Video, color, 47 min, 1997
Director of Photography: Raul Rodriguez, Jose M. Riera
Script and Director: Gloria Rolando
Assistant Director: Tony Romero
"Eyes of the Rainbow" deals with the life of Assata Shakur, the Black Panther and Black Liberation Army leader who escaped from prison and was given political asylum in Cuba, where she has lived for close to 15 years. In it we visit with Assata in Havana and she tells us about her history and her life in Cuba. This film is also about Assata's AfroCuban context, including the Yoruba Orisha Oya, goddess of the ancestors, of war, of the cemetery and of the rainbow. Gloria Rolando on "Eyes of the Rainbow":
"In the struggle of the African American people, many women's voices in the past and the present have always called for social justice, women who throughout the years have shown integrity and firmness in their principles. For this reason, "The Eyes of the Rainbow" is dedicated to all women who struggle for a better world.
One of those voices that already forms a part of the history of the African American people is that of Assata Shakur. In the documentary "The Eyes of the Rainbow," she recounts aspects of her path as relentless warrior. We are able to create a meeting with Assata Shakur through the symbols of AfroCuban culture, which offer us beautiful songs evoking the ancestors.
Representations of the Yoruba warrior orishas such as Oya and Ochosi support the discourse of this story, which also has its moments of poetry and tenderness as in the dance of Oshun, through which is illustrated Assata's decision to become mother while still in prison.
The blues interpreted by Junius Williams and his "Magic Harp," the songs of Sweet Honey in the Rocks, and the Cuban group "Vocal Baobab" give a special stamp to this valiant testimony which defines the spirit of struggle in the African American woman."
Assistant Director: Antonio Romero
Special performances:

NEWARK, N.J. -- The reward for the capture and return of a fugitive member of a black militant group convicted of murdering a New Jersey state trooper was doubled to $2 million on Thursday, the 40th anniversary of the bloody gunbattle.
The FBI also announced it has made Joanne Chesimard, now living in Cuba as Assata Shakur, the first woman on its list of most wanted terrorists.
"She continues to flaunt her freedom in the face of this horrific crime," State Police Superintendent Col. Rick Fuentes said at a news conference Thursday. Fuentes called the case "an open wound" for troopers in New Jersey and around the country.
The Justice Department has offered a $1 million reward for information leading to her capture. The additional money is being put up by the state of New Jersey through civil and criminal forfeiture funds and won't fall on taxpayers, state Attorney General Jeffrey Chiesa said.
Chesimard, a member of the violent Black Liberation Army, was convicted of the 1973 murder of state trooper Werner Foerster during a traffic stop. The BLA was responsible for killing more than a dozen police officers in the 1970s and `80s, said agent Aaron Ford of the FBI's Newark division.
According to Fuentes, Foerster and his partner stopped a car carrying Chesimard and two cohorts on the New Jersey Turnpike for a broken tail light. When the troopers approached the car, a gunfight ensued and both troopers were injured. Chesimard then took Foerster's gun and shot him twice in the head as he lay on the ground.
She was convicted in 1977 but escaped from prison in New Jersey in November 1979 with the help of accomplices. She spent the next few years living in safe houses, two of which were in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, before surfacing in Cuba in 1984, Fuentes said.
In Cuba, Chesimard has continued to espouse her anti-U.S. views in speeches advocating "revolution and terrorism" and may have connections to other international terrorist organizations, Ford said.
"She is a domestic terrorist who murdered a law enforcement officer execution style," he said. "And while we can't right the wrongs of the past, we can and will continue to pursue justice no matter how long it takes."

Hands Off Assata Shakur!
NBC Reports:
HAVANA — Cuban President Raul Castro on Saturday demanded that the United States respect Cuba's communist rule as the two countries work toward normalizing diplomatic ties. President Barack Obama this week reset Washington's Cold War-era policy on Cuba and the two countries swapped prisoners in a historic deal after 18 months of secret talks.
U.S. officials will visit Havana in January to start talks on normalization, and Obama has said his government will push Cuba on issues of human and political rights as they negotiate over the coming months. Castro said Saturday he is open to discussing a wide range of issues but that they should also cover the United States and he stressed that Cuba would not be giving up its socialist principles.
"In the same way that we have never demanded that the United States change its political system, we will demand respect for ours," Castro told Cuba's National Assembly in a session that turned into a celebration of resistance to U.S. aggression.
The National Assembly also gave a standing ovation to the three men convicted of spying in the U.S. and were freed as part of the prisoner swap. Sitting behind them was Elian Gonzalez, who in 2000 became internationally known when a custody battle between his Cuban father and American relatives in Miami became a diplomatic incident.

While a member of the Black Liberation Army, Shakur, then Joanne Chesimard, was involved in an incident in which New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster was shot during a traffic stop. She was convicted in 1977 but managed to escape prison. Shakur has since fled to Cuba, where she has remained in sanctuary even as she retained her spot on the FBI’s Most Wanted list.
In December, when President Obama announced a new era of thawed relations with Cuba, after fifty years of isolation, Shakur’s case regained the national spotlight, with several top conservatives, including New Jersey Governor Chris Christie and New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez calling for Cuba to hand her over. They and other officials have asked for Shakur’s return to be a requirement of renewed diplomatic ties between the two countries.

WASHINGTON, D.C. – President Barack Obama’s announcement on Wednesday that the United States would restore diplomatic relations with Cuba after more than 50 years of hostility drew the ire of two prominent Cuban-American members of New Jersey’s Congressional delegation.
Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and U.S. Rep. Albio Sires (D-8) expressed relief that Alan Gross, a U.S. government subcontractor for the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) who was arrested in 2009 and accused of being a U.S. spy after allegedly supplying satellite photos and computer equipment to members of Cuba’s Jewish community, was released on Wednesday. Gross’ release was the opening move of a major policy shift that will lead to the restoration of regular diplomatic rules with Cuba, suspended in 1961, and the opening of an American embassy on the communist-ruled island.
Sires, who was born in Cuba, added
“Nothing the Cuban regime does is humanitarian in nature, particularly when it continues to deny the Cuban people basic human rights while utilizing fear, incarceration, and unwarranted force to maintain control,” said Sires in a written statement on Wednesday. “While I am relieved that Mr. Gross will finally be home with his family, I would be remiss not to wonder how the family of murdered New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster feels as his killer, Joanne Chesimard, still roams freely in Cuba. Chesimard [a.k.a. Assata Shakur] is currently listed by the FBI as the number one most wanted terrorist and has been enjoying political asylum in Cuba for 30 years.
“It is a dangerous precedent to concede and utilize Americans detained abroad as mere pawns for trading,” Sires added. “Not only will this be an open invitation for rogue regimes and actors to follow the same playbook, but it potentially places many American lives overseas at risk.”

Watch the full interview with Alice walker on Democracy Now! at http://bit.ly/1539uwn. Author, poet and activist Alice Walker responds to the recent addition of former Black Panther Assata Shakur to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorists list 40 years after the killing for which she was convicted.
ALICE WALKER: I see it as an attack, really, a sort of covert sneaky attack on Cuba. I think that the governments, all of them, in recent memory, have wanted to destroy the Cuban people, really, and their insistence on their freedom and their dignity. And I think this is a way of saying that, you know, you have a, quote, "terrorist" there, and we have a right to go in and get her. And so, this could cause a very big fight between these countries, which have never had peace in my lifetime.

A female former member of the Black Panthers who fled to Cuba to escape US justice could be at the centre of discussions between Havana and Washington to normalise relations between the two countries.
President Barack Obama said Cuba had agreed to help resolve the cases of several US fugitives living in Cuba. Among those whom Cuba has previously refused to extradite is Assata Shakur.
Ms Shakur, whose married name was Chesimard, spent time in US jails over charges relating to a shoot-out on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973 in which a New Jersey State Trooper was killed.
A former member of the Black Panther Party and the Black Liberation Army, she was convicted of murder in 1979 and in 1984 she fled to Cuba where she received political asylum.

http://democracynow.org - Authorities in New Jersey have said they hope a historic warming of ties between the United States and Cuba will help them capture and imprison Black Panther Assata Shakur. "We view any changes in relations with Cuba as an opportunity to bring her back to the United States to finish her sentence for the murder of a New Jersey State Trooper in 1973," said State Police Superintendent Colonel Rick Fuentes. The encounter left both the officer and a fellow Black Panther, Zayd Malik Shakur, dead. Shakur has said she was shot by police with both arms in the air, and then again from the back. She was sentenced to life in prison but managed to escape and flee to Cuba, where she has lived since 1984. What will happen to Assata now? We put the question to two attorneys: Michael Ratner and Martin Garbus.

Davis, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz, is the subject of the recent film, "Free Angela & All Political Prisoners."

Assata Shakur's Defense Attorney: FBI's Case Politically Motivated, "Not Supported" by the Evidence
Watch the full interview with Lennox Hinds on Democracy Now! at http://owl.li/kGdcY. On Thursday, the former Black Panther Assata Shakur Hinds was added to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List for the 1973 killing of a New Jersey state trooper. Shakur has long proclaimed her innocence and accused federal authorities of political persecution. Lennox Hinds, a Professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University and Shakur's defense attorney for four decades, tells Democracy Now! that the case has always been politically motivated and undermined by forensic evidence. In 1998, Democracy Now! aired the audio of Assata Shakur reading her open letter she wrote to Pope John Paul II during his trip to Cuba in 1998 after the FBI asked him to urge her extradition.

The legendary activist and scholar Angela Davis tells Democracy Now! that the FBI's adding of former Black Panther Assata Shakur to its Most Wanted Terrorist List exemplifies a longstanding "racialization" of terrorism in the United States, and an effort to deter the young activists Shakur has inspired today. "When the grandchildren of those who were active in the late '60s and early '70s are becoming involved in similar movements today, there is this effort to again terrorize young people by representing such an important figure as Assata Shakur as a terrorist," Davis says. "Before the Tsarnev brothers were discovered to be the alleged perpetrators [of the Boston Marathon bombings], there was an attempt t... -

A professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University, Hinds has represented Shakur since 1973. "This is a political act pushed by the state of New Jersey, by some members of Congress from Miami, and with the intent of putting pressure on the Cuban government and to inflame public opinion," Hinds says. "There is no way to appeal someone being put on the terrorist list."

In addition to being the first woman placed on the "Most Wanted Terrorists," Shakur, the godmother of slain Hip-Hop artist, poet, actor and activist, Tupac Shakur, is only the second person from inside the United States to placed on the list. In an unexpected move, the state of New Jersey announced it was adding $1 million to the FBI's $1 million reward for her capture.

Watch the full interview with Lennox Hinds on Democracy Now! at http://owl.li/kGdcY. On Thursday, the former Black Panther Assata Shakur Hinds was added to the FBI's Most Wanted Terrorist List for the 1973 killing of a New Jersey state trooper. Shakur has long proclaimed her innocence and accused federal authorities of political persecution. Lennox Hinds, a Professor of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University and Shakur's defense attorney for four decades, tells Democracy Now! that the case has always been politically motivated and undermined by forensic evidence.
In 1998, Democracy Now! aired the audio of Assata Shakur reading her open letter she wrote to Pope John Paul II during his trip to Cuba in 1998 after the FBI asked him to urge her extradition. Listen at https://soundcloud.com/democracynow/assata-shakur-in-her-own-words

Watch the full interview with Angela Davis on Democracy Now! at http://owl.li/kGdcY. The legendary activist and scholar Angela Davis tells Democracy Now! that the FBI's adding of former Black Panther Assata Shakur to its Most Wanted Terrorist List exemplifies a longstanding "racialization" of terrorism in the United States, and an effort to deter the young activists Shakur has inspired today. "When the grandchildren of those who were active in the late '60s and early '70s are becoming involved in similar movements today, there is this effort to again terrorize young people by representing such an important figure as Assata Shakur as a terrorist," Davis says. "Before the Tsarnev brothers were discovered to be the alleged perpetrators [of the Boston Marathon bombings], there was an attempt to present the person who planted the bomb as either a black man or a dark skinned man with a hoodie. This racialization of what is represented as terrorism is an attempt to bring the old-style racism into the conversation with modes of repression in the 21st century."

Assata Shakur: The Rebel
Shakur was born in Jamaica, Queens, New York City, on July 16, 1947,[1] where she lived for three years with her parents and grandparents, Lula and Frank Hill.[10] After her parents divorced in 1950, Shakur spent most of her childhood in Wilmington, North Carolina with her grandmother, until her family relocated to Queens when she was a teenager.[10][11] For a time, she ran away from home and lived with strangers until she was taken in by her aunt, Evelyn Williams, who later became her lawyer.[12] Shakur dropped out of high school, but later earned a General Educational Development (GED) with her aunt's help.[12] Shakur attended Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) and then the City College of New York (CCNY) in the mid-1960s, where she was involved in many political activities, p... -

Shakur was born in Jamaica, Queens, New York City, on July 16, 1947,[1] where she lived for three years with her parents and grandparents, Lula and Frank Hill.[10] After her parents divorced in 1950, Shakur spent most of her childhood in Wilmington, North Carolina with her grandmother, until her family relocated to Queens when she was a teenager.[10][11] For a time, she ran away from home and lived with strangers until she was taken in by her aunt, Evelyn Williams, who later became her lawyer.[12] Shakur dropped out of high school, but later earned a General Educational Development (GED) with her aunt's help.[12] Shakur attended Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) and then the City College of New York (CCNY) in the mid-1960s, where she was involved in many political activities, protests, and sit-ins.[12]
Shakur was arrested for the first time in 1967 with 100 other BMCC students, on charges of trespassing. The students had chained and locked the entrance to a college building to protest a curriculum deficient in black studies and a lack of black faculty.[13] She married Louis Chesimard, a fellow student-activist at CCNY, in April 1967, and divorced him in December 1970. Shakur devotes only one paragraph of her autobiography to her marriage, attributing its termination to disagreements related to gender roles.[14]
After graduation from CCNY at 23, Shakur became involved in the Black Panther Party (BPP), and eventually became a leading member of the Harlem branch.[10][15] Prior to joining the BPP, Shakur had met several of its members on a 1970 trip to Oakland, California.[12] One of Shakur's main activities with the BPP was coordinating a school breakfast program. However, she soon left the Party, charging macho behavior of males in these organizations,[16] but did not go as far as other female Panthers like Regina Jennings, who left the organization over sexual harassment.[17] Instead, Shakur's main criticism of the BPP was its alleged lack of focus on black history:
"The basic problem stemmed from the fact that the BPP had no systematic approach to political education. They were reading the Red Book but didn't know who Harriet Tubman, Marcus Garvey, and Nat Turner were. They talked about intercommunalism but still really believed that the Civil War was fought to free the slaves. A whole lot of them barely understood any kind of history, Black, African or otherwise. [...] That was the main reason many Party members, in my opinion, underestimated the need to unite with other Black organizations and to struggle around various community issues."[18]

Eyes On The Rainbow The Assata Shakur Documentary Pt 1
"Eyes of the Rainbow" deals with the life of Assata Shakur, the Black Panther and Black Liberation Army leader who escaped from prison and was given political asylum in Cuba, where she has lived for close to 15 years. In it we visit with Assata in Havana and she tells us about her history and her life in Cuba. This film is also about Assata's AfroCuban context, including the Yoruba Orisha Oya, goddess of the ancestors, of war, of the cemetery and of the rainbow. Gloria Rolando on "Eyes of the Rainbow": "In the struggle of the African American people, many women's voices in the past and the present have always called for social justice, women who throughout the years have shown integrity and firmness in their principles. For this reason, "The Eyes of the Rainbow" is dedicated to all wome...

"Eyes of the Rainbow" deals with the life of Assata Shakur, the Black Panther and Black Liberation Army leader who escaped from prison and was given political asylum in Cuba, where she has lived for close to 15 years. In it we visit with Assata in Havana and she tells us about her history and her life in Cuba. This film is also about Assata's AfroCuban context, including the Yoruba Orisha Oya, goddess of the ancestors, of war, of the cemetery and of the rainbow. Gloria Rolando on "Eyes of the Rainbow":
"In the struggle of the African American people, many women's voices in the past and the present have always called for social justice, women who throughout the years have shown integrity and firmness in their principles. For this reason, "The Eyes of the Rainbow" is dedicated to all women who struggle for a better world.
One of those voices that already forms a part of the history of the African American people is that of Assata Shakur. In the documentary "The Eyes of the Rainbow," she recounts aspects of her path as relentless warrior. We are able to create a meeting with Assata Shakur through the symbols of AfroCuban culture, which offer us beautiful songs evoking the ancestors.
Representations of the Yoruba warrior orishas such as Oya and Ochosi support the discourse of this story, which also has its moments of poetry and tenderness as in the dance of Oshun, through which is illustrated Assata's decision to become mother while still in prison.
The blues interpreted by Junius Williams and his "Magic Harp," the songs of Sweet Honey in the Rocks, and the Cuban group "Vocal Baobab" give a special stamp to this valiant testimony which defines the spirit of struggle in the African American woman."
Assistant Director: Antonio Romero
Special performances:
* Grupo Vocal Baobab
* Sweet Honey in the Rock
* Danza Nacional de Cuba
* Junius Williams and the Magic Harp
