Myth: Black Gangs Don’t Fight White Supremacy
Dedan Waciuri, founder of North Carolina-based community organisations Mapinduzi (@mapinduzi_252 on IG) and Amani Collective (@the_amani_collective) and a community organiser with @emancipate.nc, calls out the latest anti-African propaganda circulating on social media.
He argues Black street organisations have long played a crucial role in supporting US-based Black communities while also acknowledging they suffer the effects of interpersonal violence.

Mali Liberates More Cities From Western-Backed Terrorists, Builds 1000 New Homes For Army
Under its current, revolutionary leadership, Mali continues to reclaim its territory from Western-backed terrorists, nationalize its resources, and improve the economic conditions of its people. The Malian Armed Forces (FAMa), in collaboration with Russia’s Africa Corps [ include “(@TheAfricaCorps)” on X ], have dealt crippling blows to these terror groups, liberating cities once controlled by them, including, most recently, the northern Malian city of Kidal.
The rest of Africa, and especially the Sahel, would do well to follow Mali’s example.
Thomas Sankara Called For Africa To Unite Against Foreign Debt, Then The West Assassinated Him
On July 29, 1987, at the 25th Organisation of African Unity (OAU) Summit in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Burkina Faso’s revolutionary founding father Thomas Sankara stood before his fellow African leaders, and implored them to unify in rejecting the West’s crippling debts.
His words fell on deaf ears, and 2 months later, he was assassinated by the West.
But Sankara’s vision did not die with him. It lives on today, under Burkina Faso’s current, revolutionary leadership, a leadership which is slowly giving the rest of Africa no choice but to finally listen.
David Hundeyin: Somalia Is A Sabotaged African State, Not A Failed State
The Spearhead’s founder, David Hundeyin (@davidhundeyin), argues that no failed states exist in Africa because any that appear to have failed were actually destroyed by the West.
