There will be an international conference on racism in 2001. Where will it be? Who will set the agenda? What will be the issues discussed? What will be the outcome? There are over 40 million people of African descent in the U.S. We must become involved in the planning stages of this proposed world conference on racism. If we let other people plan it for us and give it to us, we will get what they want us to have. Police terror, the prison industrial complex, poor health care, environmental poisoning of our communities, unemployment, underemployment, homelessness, and the miseducation of our children are all aspects of sustained underdevelopment. The net effects of RACISM.
