Recorded off mic.
Discussion on the effects of global white supremacy on Africans historically, legally, and psychologically. The audio begins with Imhotep Gary Byrd leading the audience in a song. John Henrik Clarke speaks how black people are the chosen people of God, and how historically, the Jews have benefited from the slave trade. He also talks about Louis Farrakhan, minister of the nation of Islam, and his contributions to the black man. He also gives a historical perspective on global white supremacy, saying that blacks do not understand white supremacy because they don’t understand white people. He asserts that whites feel superior because they aren’t rich in culture and family life like blacks are, and they want that without paying for it. Clarke calls people to read more and to become educated. He speaks about Egypt not being white because it is deep within Africa, so they cannot claim superiority over other Africans. He also speaks about the bastardization of Africans, physically through skin color, and mentally through the desire to be white. He claims there is no reason for white colonization except the whites desire for resources and to take over another people. He says that the only way to overcome global white supremacy would be for all Africans to unite.
Audio tape includes a rap song about race relations between minorities (blacks) and whites. No Justice, No Peace.
Panel Discussion with Committee to Eliminate Media Offensive to African People on the Global Media Conspiracy
Date: 4/23/1994Call Number: AFR 058Format: Cass A & BProducers: CEMOTAP (Committee to Eliminate Media Offensive to African People)Program: The Global Media Conspiracy and Community Rally for Earl CaldwellCollection: Africa- General Resources
Audio begins abruptly on Side A
Historian John Henrik Clarke speaks about how Europe’s perception of the world influences the interpretation of the world. Its nationalism has guided its history and its colonizing of mass media. Clarke states that European media has created the image of God that does not look like a black person, but in Africa, God is seen neither as black or white, but as a loving father. Clarke also speaks about racism: racists are of all skin colors, and to overcome racism is to be with others of different ethnicities. Quote: “You get out only what you put in.” He says that while Europe will always control the world, and in spite of the mass media and multiculturalism, people can coexist and you do not have to plan this coexistence. He calls people to look at themselves universally. After Dr. Clarke speaks, the MC introduces Dr. James MacIntosh, cofounder of CEMOTAP (Committee to Elimiate Media Offensive to African People).
.
Side B is a continuation of side A. Dr. James MacIntosh speaks about the Rockaway 5 (five men who have been influential in the fight against racial discrimination against Africans in the media), and the corrupt and violent police and justice system. He speaks about confronting ABC media with tapes and statements offensive to blacks in their media, hoping to elicit a response positive to collaboration with CEMOTAP. He calls for CEMOTAP being national and more church involvement in their cause.

Continuation of AFR 059.
Earl Caldwell, journalist, speaks about his experiences with racial discrimination as a journalist. He talks about how in the beginning of the computer age, blacks knew much more about computers than whites did, but whites got all the jobs because they were trained to learn computers, and whites were paid more than blacks as well.
Side B is a continuation of Side A. A CEMOTAP speaker speaks about the PAC (Pan - African Congress) in Uganda. He states that it was wrong for Europeans to colonize Africa, but that it was directly linked to the black people’s lack of leaders and organization. He speaks about the rise of Facism and Gulianism (future mayor of New York), and of the conservative black person. Eric Ture Muhammed, Executive Director of the Black African Holocaust Council, makes a plug for his journal, the Holocaust Journal, and speaks on media censorship.
