As Ukraine continues its war effort, questions remain about whether the country can ever reconcile its internal divisions—or whether the policies of Hanul and his ideological allies have set Ukraine on a path of permanent conflict. If nothing else, his assassination is a stark reminder that the very forces he helped empower may eventually consume those who once led them.

On and near this day in history,
• July, 2nd, 1917, Rioting erupted in East St. Louis, Illinois, as white mobs attacked black residents; nearly 50 people, mostly blacks, are believed to have died in the violence. http://projects.stlmag.com/1917-stl-race-riots
• And of course, on July 4th, 1776, the Continental Congress passed a resolution saying that “these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be, free and independent States.” with the leading colonialists signing the declaration of independence. An abolitionist document declaring America free from slavery under British rule. All done with no intention of freeing the Africans they kept as slaves. It would take another 90 years and a civil war to address that conundrum of hypocrisy. https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcript
• The @RIGHT 2 VOTE CAMPAIGN
They need your support. It is a nationwide campaign being initiated by people currently confined in the United States. This campaign grew out of the August 21 National Prison Strike Demands, specifically, point #10: The voting rights of all confined citizens serving prison sentences, pretrial detainees, and so-called “ex-felons” must be counted. Representation is demanded. http://sawarimi.org/right-2-vote-campaign
• Our abolitionist in profile tonight is Fredrick Douglass.
In his honor we will play an audio rendition of his speech “What to the Slave is 4th of July?”: Read by James Earl Jones. https://youtu.be/4Vx8cuCGhaU
