WMXP-lp The Malcolm X Experience

On June 8th, 2007 Prometheus Radio Project teamed up with the Malcolm X Grassroots Center for Self-Determination in Greenville, South Carolina for an 11th radio barnraising! Radio applicants, activists, and members of the radio community from across the US joined with community members of Greenville to
build the new LPFM, WMXP-lp -the Malcolm X Experience. About MXGM The Malcolm X Grassroots Movement is an organization of Afrikans in America/New Afrikans whose mission is to defend the human rights of our people and promote self-determination in our community. While organizing around our principles of unity, we are building a network of Black/New Afrikan activists and organizers committed to the protracted struggle for the liberation of the New Afrikan Nation - By Any Means Necessary!
