The recent actions of the government against the godmother of the late hip-hop rap icon Tupac Shakurs’ godmother, Assata Shakur; has brought many things to light.

Many questions are being asked, like what is the history of Assata Shakur? What is this Cointel Pro they speak of? Why and how did Assata Shakur escape prison and end up in Cuba?

With a Million dollar bounty placed on her now, and what seems to be a non-relenting push to have her kidnapped and returned to the United States, it would be good if a lot of these questions where answered. Understanding situations and circumstances helps one to become informed and then a person can make up their own mind on what is going on thru knowledge of events.

In this audio from around 1998, Assata Shakur speaks for about 54 minutes on a variety of topics relating to herself; the times, what happened and why.

This is truly a history lesson on why Assata Shakur is in the situation she is in now. Even more stimulating is that you can hear her voice, her emotion, her understanding and knowledge.

Assata addresses her history, what Cointel Pro is or was, her treatment in prison, prison conditions in this country, racism, her escape, Cuba and much more.

Having things explained and expanded on by the person who is involved makes this a have to listen to, not only for the information, but that all understand there are always two sides to every story.

We have heard one side and now, even though this is an older address by Assata; we can hear her side.

This audio of Assata Shakur is made available thru Pan Africian TV. Make sure you check out there site for more information on not only the struggle Assata Shakur faces, but for all information important to us all.
