ROBERT F WILLIAMS AND THE CLASS OF 1925

The class of those born in 1925 is amazing. Here are the names of some: Patrice Lumumba, Malcolm X, Frantz Fanon, Medgar Evers, Eusi Kwayana, BB King, Sammy Davis Jr and last but not least Robert F Williams. Brother Rob, as some of us lovingly call him, advocated armed self defense and became an international ambassador for African people in America. His travels in exile included time spent in Cuba, China and Vietnam. I first met Brother Rob in China in 1977. Here is a photo of Brother Rob and his wonderful wife, Mabel Williams getting some practice in! On Thursday, April 17 at 8 pm tune to WBAI 99.5 FM, streaming audio at wbai.org and video @ Education at the Crossroads as I converse with Babas Akinyele Umoja and Aukram Burton about the national and international importance of Robert F Williams.
