Live #Webinar Lecture: #RevolutionaryDreams: A #BlackPower #Bicentennial

Thursday, February 12, 2026, 6pm-7:30pm

"Lecture Description:
In this live virtual talk (via Zoom webinar), Dr. Amber N. Wiley discusses both her scholarly and pedagogical approaches to analyzing American history through the lens of the #AfroAmerican Bicentennial Corporation (ABC). Inspired by the ABC’s work to identify and protect cultural landscapes related to #BlackAmerican achievements ahead of the 1976 commemoration of the #AmericanRevolution, Wiley has taken up their charge to 'continue the revolution' through the 'process of #decolonization, a movement toward self-realization and self-government by people determined not to be kept in a subject status.' The lecture will highlight Wiley’s public history, preservation, and teaching work in New Jersey, Philadelphia, and Washington, DC related to revolutionary histories in each locale.

The indigenous and native people of Peninsular Malaysia, Sabah, and Sarawak, of course, have the right to remain indigenous and native without the need to migrate (or downgrade) to other sociopolitical constructs or groups. Biological ethnicity or ethnic group is better than a sociopolitical construct.

The #thawabet is a set of red lines agreed upon by all factions of the Palestinian #resistance, and representative of widely held #principles in #Palestine. It is rooted in full #decolonization, Palestinian nationhood, #UnityInDiversity, and Palestinian #leadership of the #liberation #movement. Upholding the thawabet determines the legitimacy of a resistance or #solidarity #organization.

Understanding Iran
In order to better understand the situation in #Iran, I believe it is important to understand how significant Prime Minister #Mohammad #Mossadegh is to the country's recent #history. Not the #Shah, not the #Ayatollah. Mossadegh stood for a Persian-Arab renewal after World War II, which is actually what the #West supposedly always wants.
#Democratic, Western-oriented, you could say #social #democrat—at that time, the communists were very much on the rise, as they were pushing for #decolonization, often with AK-47s.

Mossadegh was not a #communist, but he dared, like #Chavez and #Maduro, to nationalize the country's oil reserves. Then the #US and #England got angry and, together with their bridgehead #Israel, destroyed Iran's future and installed the #fascist Shah regime – a time of absolute horror. #Khomeini was then the salvation.

I believe the Iranians really dislike their government, but they have not forgotten what happens when they trust the West. I wish Iran all the best. Stay brave!

"Colonial knowledge was institutionalized by the imperial state and businesses, with universities hosting specialized programs like Indology and tropical studies. These institutions produced knowledge about colonized peoples and developed technologies for exploiting resources."

"The most important struggle against settler colonialism today is the struggle for Palestine. The genocide has, on the one hand, raised public consciousness to expose the Zionist project for what it is — a racist, apartheid system where the indigenous people are dispossessed and exterminated. But this consciousness has failed to alter the iron support of Western governments for Israel."

Imperialism means colonialism and colonialism means oppression. Welcome to a new wave of colonialism!

That's where we are now after the United States revised their security doctrine and attacked Venezuela.
