CleanPOCO Podcast: Ajamu Baraka on Trayvon Martin, Race, Class and Movements | With the recent arrest of George Zimmerman for the murder of Trayvon Martin, questions about movements, class, social media and criminal justice have become more prominent. Why did this struggle generate so much attention? What were the strategic successes and mistakes? And where does the pursuit of justice, especially for a campaign centered so squarely on arrest by a system that seldom penalizes Black murder, go from here? This edition of the podcast, we talk with community organizer and writer Ajamu Baraka about the Trayvon Martin matter, the movement that emerged, the rise of neo-fascism and how the activists fighting for justice around the Trayvon Martin murder succeeded in keeping the case on the national radar when cases like Sean Bell's and many others saw no justice at all. This wide-ranging interview covers history, anti-capitalism, Occupy Wall Street, race and many subjects. Close music by Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings. | 4/18/12 | Free | View In iTunes |

Podcast we present one of our most venerated radical scholars, Dr. Frank B. Wilderson III. Dr. Wilderson was the keynote speaker for the Abriendo Brecha Activist Scholarship Conference IX at The University of Texas at Austin Friday, February 17, 2012. Dr. Wildersonâs keynote address comes from his published article, The Vengeance of Vertigo: Aphasia and Objection in the Political Trials of Black Insurgents. Believe me itâs that good of an address! I must personally say that I have never listened to an interview by Dr. Wilderson that doesnât absolutely blow me away. Itâs my man FRANK B!!!! Thank youDr. Jared Ball for interviewing Frank on your show. Dialectics, gotta love it. This is yet another address by this prolific and warm brother for your iPod playlist (yes I do have a Frank B. Wilderson playlist).  Normally, I would try to explain the showâs subject matter, but you know who this is, itâs FRANK B! We took the liberty of converting the video to audio which will be available at People of Color Organize! via podcast, audiostream, and mp3 download. We also uploaded and added to this post, the video of this keynote address available below from our youtube channel pocorganize. In a nutshell, you have full access to listen to our dear brother and to spread this clarion call like the world spreads anti-Blackness! If you havenât picked up Brother Frankâs books not to worry, I have provided links to purchase them below, no more excuses! Thanks to our comrades from the University of Texas at Austin for accepting our request and using your time and resources to make this video: Joy James, Sarah Ihmoud, Shannon Speed, and João Costa Vargas. Thanks to our very own editor Zari Sundiata, who was very persistent in making sure we obtained this presentation. Extra special shout out from The Ikonoklast to João Costa Vargas (you are just too cool. I saw you in the video) and Joy James (I loved your ostrich analogy, and yes we must âkeep it realâ or it will leave our rear-ends in the air). Enjoy this keynote address and make it go viral. Thank you. This episodeâs features the music of Tremorâs Caracol (Clorofila - Nortec Cumbia Remix) and HKB Finnâs Live Saver.

Customer Reviews
This is a valuable resource!
This podcast is a value resource for real, radical leftist politics that you will not hear anywhere else. Obviously zarinah zarif is basing their comments on a reaction to the blind allegiance afforded Obama based on personality. These podcasts criticize Obama’s policies whereas his personality is secondary. To be a leftist and to condone cutting essential domestic spending, growing wars, corporate hand-outs, and all the policies Obama has put forth is illogical. The logical extension is to criticize any policies that do not adhere to the interest of people in general and people of color especially. It seems weird that anyone would expect a leftist website to praise Obama when his policies are diametrically opposed to left, radical thought. zarinah apparently continued to listen to these podcasts and overlooked the valuable and accurate political education that can be gained from such conversations. If it was disappointing to zarinah, then so be it, you should go find a site of Obamites who also have an infantile understanding of leftist politics. The only critic provided by that listener was that people who actually analyze policies are weird because they lack a since of blind nationalism. Blind allegiance is the basis of fascism, so who’s the weird one?
And another thing, when has the US presidency been a revolutionary position? Since you insinuate that the two women talking are so-called “revolutionaries”. You apparently weren’t paying attention because everyone was given ample space to talk and convey their thoughts. Why don’t you do your own “Black People that Love Obama regardless of his policies and lack of allegiance to Black people” podcast.
Great Debut!
In this debut podcast, the Ikonoklast speaks is often hilarious and educational. The Ikonoklast explains the issues of the day in laymans terms with witty and straigh forward analogies and criticisms of what many have referred to as the American empire. While this podcast is not for the light at heart, it provides an excellent analysis of current and past events, theory, and interactions in society. It squarely puts forth the agenda for people of color and provides clarity on various issues so that people of color understand the best position to further their interests.
WTF??!!
Umm...black people who hate Obama are weird. And what's up with the two "revolutionary" black women not letting the other woman who actually has a point say something? This podcast is disappointing
