From Wise The Dome TV, with Dwayne Wong (Omowale) as the guest
On Gaddafi, Malcolm X, Pan-Africanism and Barbados
This is Wise The Dome TV’s video, and Dwayne is their guest. Watch it on their channel, where the comments are. This page is our summary of it.
Rakim interviews Dwayne Wong (Omowale) on Wise The Dome TV. Dwayne lists contradictions in Muammar Gaddafi’s Pan-African record: a t-shirt honoring leaders he did not actually back, his support for Idi Amin’s invasion of Nyerere’s Tanzania, and the CIA’s help capturing and torturing his critics while he called himself an anti-imperialist. He credits Gaddafi’s support for the fight against apartheid, and notes Obama called the intervention that toppled Gaddafi his worst mistake.
On the exoneration of two men convicted of killing Malcolm X, Dwayne calls the evidence conflicting but says a conspiracy to silence Malcolm, involving the NYPD, FBI and CIA, is indisputable. Answering the charge that Pan-Africanism is a one-way street, he traces influence moving both ways, from Denmark Vesey and Martin Delany to Marcus Garvey and Stokely Carmichael, and points to Barbados becoming a republic under Mia Mottley. He profiles Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, mother of Fela Kuti, and says he has written a chapter for a book on the Black Panther from Disney Marvel.
