(Warning: Rough Language) As Western feminist attention is hopelessly drawn-in by the unnecessarily heady, intellectual brain-drain and capitalist-driven neo-Feminism romance between Beyoncé and her adoring fans, fellow Black female entertainer Azealia Banks has decided to wail herself into a ban on Twitter and an ejection from the roster of a UK music festival for abject anti-Asian bigotry. She is defending he actions as expressions of Black Pride and Black Power against a racist social system. But TheAngryindian questions Ms. Banks on this since using âCurry Scented Bitchâ as a means of politically 'correcting' or 'checking' another Person-of-Colour has more to do with attacking them ethnically than with or criticism of their particular politics. Is this the 'New' Black American feminism, or is this just another case of an out-of-control Black entertainer using Black politics as a cover for their own forms of Black fascism? EXTRAS: Dave Lippmann: 'Teenage Immigrant Welfare Mothers on Drugs,' and extended selections of a lecture by Black Panther Party for Self Defence (BBP) and Black Liberation Army (BLA) veteran Dhoruba bin-Wahad discussing the political exile of Sis. Assata Shakur in socialist Cuba and the deep colonialist relationships between wealthy Blacks Americans like Beyoncé and Jay Z and Barack Obama and the 'Talented Tenth'.

Today we take another look at the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions, BDS movement that continues to come under attack by the powers that be in both Israel and the United States, which is a good sign in the sense that it proves that the movement is having an effect of the economy of Israel. Why else try to literally outlaw it, which is the current strategy?
We begin with journalist Ali Abunimah of the Electronic Intifada speaking in Malaysia about the goals, advances, victories, and challenges of the BDS movement.
Then we move right to another journalist, Max Blumenthal, being interviewed about the BDS movement on the Real News Network out of Baltimore.

Grant Smith on Big Israel; How Israel Lobby Moves America
May 25, 2016, 1:02 p.m.
Grant Smith elaborates on contents of his new book, Big Israel, How the Israel Lobby Moves America, which details the money-for-Israel tax exempt âachievementsâ of several hundred Jewish organizations whose major activity is raising and sending money to Israel; how the IRS and the Justice Dept. look the other way when Israel lobby activity is involved. Smith points out that these groups that purport to represent American Jews, do so for only a small influential minority; he explodes the myth that Christian evangelicals, eg Christians United for Israel, play major role in Israel Lobbying, notes they have been funded by major Jewish donors; as an example of their influence on media, he notes that a majority of Americans uniquely believe that Palestinians occupy Israeli land where populations of Canada, Mexico, and the UK know it's the other way around; discusses pressure from groups like CAMERA to keep the media in check and argues that challenging the Israel Lobby should take precedence in the US over opposing Israeli occupation which has been shown to be unsuccessful.

Acquitted at UN Tribunal, the Rights of Tom Moran's Client Have Not Been Restored
May 24, 2016, 10:30 p.m.
At the so-called âGovernment Twoâ at the UN Tribunal for Rwanda Prosper Mugireneza and 3 others were faced every charge from conspiracy to commit genocide to extermination, but with the vigorous defense work of Tom Moran and Cynthia Cline, Mugireneza was acquitted of all charges. In light of the prosecution theory of a government conspiracy to commit genocide, the outcome should cause all commentators to revisit their notions of the 1994 Rwandan events. But another issue is why the rights of Mugireneza and the others have not been restored. They remain in legal limbo in Arusha, Tanzanian, facing an uncertain and perhaps dangerous future.

The 2016 Right 2 Education campaign just finished a national tour of the U.S. Two college students speak of their experiences trying to gain an education that is relevant and culturally meaningful while under occupation by the Israeli government which controls their curriculum, limits the building of schools, access to classes and frequently fails to protect children from the attacks of religious extremest who terrorize Palestinian communities in a campaign to expand the illegal settler collonies in occupied Palestine. They describe the various means that Israel has used to interfere with their education and the origin of the Right 2 Education Campaign.
"The Right to Education Campaign is a grassroots Palestinian movement that seeks to document, research and raise awareness about the issues facing Palestinian students, teachers and academic institutions under Israeli military occupation. Demanding unimpeded access for all Palestinians to their academic institutions, the Right to Education Campaign opposes Israelâs illegal occupation and attacks on Palestinian educational rights. The campaign also seeks to build an international movement in support of Palestinian students, teachers and educational institutions.
The campaign is jointly run by four West Bank universities: Birzeit University in Birzeit, Al-Najah National University in Nablus, Hebron University in Hebron and Al Quds University in Abu Dis. These branches of the Campaign both collaborate on major projects and work on issues particular to each university. Currently, the four branches are working to establish roots in other universities both in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
The right to education is a basic human right and fundamental to human freedom. The United Nationâs Universal Declaration of Human Rights states that âeveryone has the right to educationâ (Article 26, 1948). The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, ratified by Israel in 1991, states that âEducation is both a human right in itself and an indispensable means of realizing other human rightsâ. However the Israeli military systematically obstructs education in the West Bank and Gaza, which violates the human rights of individuals and also impedes the development of Palestinian society."
