part 3–Nadra Foster: Survivor of Police Abuse at KPFA

Freedom is a Constant Struggle TV show Aug. 28, 2009 Guest Nadra Foster, a/k/a, your brown sistah, Mama Nadra and emcee Saquoyah Sankofa, has been a committed programmer and producer, or love warrior, for over 15 years at Pacificas KPFA. In 1994, at 19 years old, she became the youngest person to be accepted to the two-year apprenticeship. Active in community and global advancement — as a poet, political-prisoner activist and journalist, holistic Hip Hop emcee, visual artist and educator — Nadra has worked to keep disenfranchised communities inspired and involved in using media to heal and uplift themselves. On August 20, 2008, in the studios of KPFA, a terrifying incident took place when over a dozen Berkeley police attacked Nadra with such extreme aggression she is still recovering from serious injuries. She is also fighting misdemeaner charges. To support Nadra and learn more about her case, contact: globalelevationmovement@gmail.com.
