Black Agenda Report At the Belt and Road Journalism Forum in China

The 2025 Belt and Road Journalists Forum in China was an opportunity for Black Agenda Report to join an international group of journalists working to promote meaningful dialogue on world issues.

The invitation extended to Black Agenda Report to participate in the 2025 Belt and Road Journalists Forum , held in the cities of Nanchang, Jingdezhen, and Ganzhou in Jiangxi province China, was a testament to our 19 year history of providing “news, commentary, and analysis from a Black left perspective.“ Our work is appreciated nationally and internationally, and this columnist attended the Forum along with 100 media representatives from around the world. The Forum is a venue for journalists from Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) nations, but Black Agenda Report was also included, the only outlet participating from the United States.

While the corporate media inundate the public with tall tales of spy balloons and claims that China is making nefarious purchases of U.S. farmland, that nation forges ahead in spite of futile U.S. efforts to diminish its economic prowess. Donald Trump's ever changing tariff policies resulted in China imposing tariffs of its own and buying soy beans from Brazil and beef from Australia when those commodities had long been a part of agricultural trade between the two countries. Joe Biden's attempt to stop China’s access to computer chip production resulted in new innovations like DeepSeek, which created a model for Artificial Intelligence that surpassed ChatGPT at a fraction of the cost.

With a couple of aspects highlighted above that correlate to my previous statements. The ignorance of the US citizenship in regards to China, due to our medias purposeful mis/disinformation campaign to benefit their owners, it only provides another avenue where many of us miss the decades of advancements our country has missed with a falsely manufactured enemy. Another example of why we can't trust our representation, and should be fuming in anger for the waste of treasury on unwarranted manufactured wars, one after another continuously. As China partners on a global scale leaving us behind.

BAR, the only US outlet to go to this forum? Because our medias wouldn't be allowed to expose the advantages China has over us. You have to use alternative medias to discover the real China. Where you would learn how deep the mis/disinformation about China is. I see their DC broadcast conducted by Americas nightly. I see Americans in their national news nightly. American's from American corporations. Groups, think tanks, delivering a completely different reality than our medias falsely project onto our society. Individuals who dive into their culture and historic senses. The innovative ways they mix their history to changing times. The mixture of regions full of the ancient times, and regions that appear to be so advanced that the future seems to already be there. They're living in the future today while we wallow in the depths of stagnation.

I can't tress how much importance there has been for me within observing other news platforms which have enlighten my abilities to discover how we are so deeply deceived by western governments and medias over the past 10 years. China's, Russia's, Latin America's. teleSur for Latin America. China's CGTN, where you do actually see the difference, is the largest provider of worldwide coverage I know. RT International covers all of Europe and Africa. Both China and RT with the best documentaries I've ever seen with no biasness to be seen. Where truth can only be seen in their support of factuality. If you want to really know what's going on on a global scale, these 3 news networks are where to learn it from. Where you get to use them to conform a real perception. Not one of brainwashed indoctrinations where the truth comes weeks, months, years later. Worse even, dying not knowing the truth. We have current events happening right now today that many are still wallowing in fake news and they can't be lead to the truth. Some of that bullshit has been going of for several years as some are still swimming in the shit.
