Today is the October 10th, 2018 live broadcast of New Abolitionists Radio with hosts Max Parthas and Scotty T Reid.
Tonight, we’ve got a huge change to announce. It affects US slavery abolitionists everywhere. This is important. Stay tuned and we’ll explain. We’ll be going deep tonight on the concept of a white race in history. When have we ever not been controversial? Expect it. We’re the people who think differently about things by definition. And one more thing. We’ve got poetry.
On and near this day in history…

• The RIGHT 2 VOTE CAMPAIGN
Needs 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
