MicroEffect owner Joe McNeil interviews black evangelist Ben Kinchlow, who says the New Black Panther Party is lying about its extremist views to try to disassociate itself from the Far Left in America.
Today’s program includes a discussion about the Justice Department’s abrupt decision to drop a legal case involving the NBPP and two of its members, Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson, whose overt hatred of the white race were documented in a video and on a MySpace web site. A newspaper account about Jackson’s MySpace page that contained the words, “Killing Crakkas,” appeared with little fanfare in the July 31, 2009 edition of the Washington Times. When DOJ Attorney J. Christian Adams quit to blow the whistle on what he called a corrupt decision to drop the case, the Washington Times story received renewed interest, which provided an open window into the racist views of the NBPP.
