Rappers For Regime Change: How the CIA Recruits Hip Hop Artists Around the World

Through its myriad of agencies, the United States government has recruited and groomed rappers from around the world to further its political interests. Washington has spent tens of millions of dollars funding, training, and promoting artists who foment public discontent, organize protests, and lead color revolutions in nations in its crosshairs. In Bangladesh and Senegal, U.S.-funded rappers led political movements that toppled governments. Washington-backed musicians were the face of a failed counter-revolution in Cuba, and will likely be called upon again by the Trump administration. And artists in dozens of countries worldwide (including the U.S. itself) are paid to promote American government interests.This is the story of how the U.S. government uses hip hop, a medium of struggle pioneered by Black artists in New York, as a tool for regime change.

We owe the attorneys on the Minnesota 15 case a lot of gratitude. They are working hard to force the state to reveal the methods of surveillance they used to spy on activists and organizers so we can be better prepared in the future.

I never thought I'd be riding on Blanshard regularly again (I used to ride it 25 years ago). The new protected lanes are amazing. Thanks to @cargobikesyyj.bsky.social for this great post about them.

One of the murals that I took pictures of in LA was at a church and was about a blessing of the animals, but I don't remember whether it was in Long Beach.

I found it: it wasn't at a church. It was a mural downtown and commemorates "a ceremony performed on Olivera Street since the 1780s."
