Empowerment and Self-Love: Wisdom from Robert Parker
In February 2024, at Making Worlds Cooperative Bookstore & Social Center in West Philadelphia, renowned figures like Dr. Cornel West, Pam Africa, Susan Abulhawa, and Gabe Bryant convened for a discussion. The focus was on pressing community issues, particularly Mumia Abu-Jamal, mass incarceration, and the legacy of MOVE.
Janine Africa, a prominent figure in the MOVE movement, emerged as a key voice. In a recent video, she emphasized the ongoing struggle against oppression, drawing parallels between MOVE's plight and global injustices. Janine's unwavering commitment to justice despite personal tragedies, including the 1985 MOVE bombing, resonated strongly.
The discussion underscored the enduring relevance of MOVE's legacy in advocating for systemic change. Janine's resilience and call for unity served as a reminder of the ongoing fight against injustice.
