DESCRIPTION:Did you know that in Pennsylvania in the 1970s, a collective called MOVE 
 formed whose mission was to organize for black power and animal rights? 
 Black history is animal rights history. \n\nJoin us on September 12th as we 
 hear from Mike Africa Jr., member of The MOVE Organization who was born in 
 prison to parents who were political prisoners. Mike will share his story 
 and how he maintains a “never give up” attitude. \n\nMike was born in 
 prison after his parents were arrested and sentenced to 100 years in 
 prison. A week later, he was separated from them and placed into an abusive 
 orphanage. Years later, his family was bombed by Philadelphia police and 
 eleven of his family members were killed. Mike, at the age of 13, dedicated 
 his life to bringing his parents home from prison and finally, when he was 
 40, they were paroled and 
 reunited.\n\n----------------------------------------------------------------\n\nRegister
