People’s Centered Human Rights

Lifting The Veil On International Human Rights Day

December 15, 2025 Ajamu Baraka, Black Agenda Report. , , , ,
The notion that the “West,” responsible for the most horrific crimes in the annals of human history, could somehow be associated with the defense of something they called human rights was always an obscene proposition. But with the assistance of the human rights industry, which is infused with Eurocentrism and white saviorism, the collective West was given ideological cover to continue its project of racist plunder and colonial fascism after fascist forces were partially defeated in Europe with the end of the second imperialist war in 1945. Outside of Europe, in the colonized world where fascism was originally born and practiced as a value extraction process that materially created the “West,” colonial fascism continued but was given a new face and tagline.

Malcolm X And Human Rights In The Time Of Trumpism

May 21, 2025 Ajamu Baraka, Black Agenda Report. , , ,
52 years ago, on February 21st, the world lost the great anti-colonial fighter, Malcolm X. Around the world, millions pause on this anniversary and take note of the life and contribution of Brother Malcolm. Two years ago, I keynoted a lecture on the legacy of Malcolm X at the American University in Beirut, Lebanon. While I had long been aware of the veneration that Malcolm inspired in various parts of the world, I was still struck by the love and appreciation that so many have for Malcolm beyond activists in the black world. There are a number of reasons that might explain why, 52 years later, so many still pay homage to Malcolm.
