The Nigerian Chicken Revolution

In 2003, Nigeria banned the importing of frozen poultry to mitigate its negative effects on the economy. The decision was not made due to disease or sudden health risk, but to stop Nigeria being a destination for American surplus chicken parts, a practice that was devastating local farmers. For decades, U.S. producers had exported millions of tons of dark meat, cuts often unwanted in the American market, at prices that made it impossible for local, free-range farmers to compete. Even after the 2003 ban, this surplus was still smuggled into Nigeria. So the prohibition was reinforced in 2015 by “Operation Hawk Descend,” a crackdown on smuggling via Benin. The ban remains in full force today, recently reaffirmed by Minister of Livestock Development Idi Mukhtar Maiha.

"I'm Not Going to Give Up": Leonard Peltier on Indigenous Rights, His Half-Century in Prison & Coming Home

In September, Democracy Now! host Amy Goodman sat down with longtime political prisoner and Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier for his first extended television and radio broadcast interview since his release to home confinement in February. Before his commutation by former President Joe Biden, the 81-year-old Peltier spent nearly 50 years behind bars. Peltier has always maintained his innocence for the 1975 killing of two FBI officers. He is expected to serve the remainder of his life sentences under house arrest at the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Nation in Belcourt, North Dakota. In a wide-ranging conversation, we spoke to Peltier about his case, his time in prison, his childhood spent at an American Indian boarding school and his later involvement in the American Indian Movement (AIM) and more. “We still have to live under that, that fear of losing our identity, losing our culture, our religion,” Peltier says about his continued commitment to Indigenous rights. “The struggle still goes on for me. I’m not going to give up.”
