This week's show explores the growing resistance of the African community in Philadelphia, PA. On December 10th and 18th, 2008, members of the International People's Democratic Uhuru Movement confronted Mayor, Michael Nutter at his "Town Hall Meetings" that were held to justify the slashing of $108 million from libraries, educational and recreational programs, while leaving $1 billion intact for "Criminal Justice & Public Safety." The Uhuru Movement calls this a Billion Dollar War Budget - 24% of the city's budget spent on prisons, the public policy of police containment, and the ongoing criminalization of the African community. Hear clips of InPDUM organizers putting the mayor, the police commissioner, and the district attorney on trial in the Philadelphia Tribunal for Reparations to African People on December 13, 2008, demanding the $1 Billion be spent on economic development for the African community.
