Description

It is part of our organization's mission to to stimulate minds and expand the dynamics of thinking as well as to motivate individuals to take a proactive approach to life. This is what fuels Thorough Thursday. It is not a party or just some random open mic event. It is our Experience which is animated by the spirit of Hip Hop, our foundation. It is Delaware's Sound Right Reason to take the Mic. It is about resistance. ***Black August is about resistance. From its formation, The BAOC (Black August Organizing Committe) has been dedicated to freedom fighters that have been kidnapped, held and tortured in the cold concentration camps of these so-called United States. The concept of Black August developed inside the California prisons, under the leadership of men like George Jackson, W.L. Nolan, and Khatari Gaulden, who were all murdered in California prisons. As taught to us by the OG’s (Original Guerrillas), Black August was a response to the need of Afrikan prisoners to form a principled and effective political unity to combat the racism and genocide against Afrikan people behind the walls. Black August began in 1979, one year after the murder of Khatari Gaulden. - Kalonji Jama East Coast Coordinator of The Black August Organizing Committee (BAOC) More brothers are incarcerated today than there were during the United States era of Chattel Slavery. The principles of Black August like unity, self-sacrifice, political education, physical training and resistance are still neceesarry in 2022. Conditions have worsened. The BAOC is still very relevant and continues to shine light continuously shined light on the Brothers and Sisters who are being held behind enemy lines as prisoners of war and political prisoners. We at Guerrilla Republik respect and hold in high Regard all the Old G's, the Freedom Fighters LIVING AND FALLEN.
