U.S. fugitive Kilgore willing to face murder charges in California
James Kilgore, once a member of the Symbionese Liberation Army, says he is willing to return to California to face murder charges after being arrested in South Africa. His lawyer Anton Katz said Kilgore wants extradition documented and prefers to go back soon. Kilgore, 55, was charged in a 1975 bank robbery that killed a woman, freed pending a formal U.S. extradition request, then re-arrested for immigration law violations.

Cuba to buy food from black American farmers under U S law
The NAACP says Cuba agreed to purchase American food from black farmers under a 2000 law allowing direct sales to the island. Since Cuba began using the law last year, it has bought over 200 million dollars in cash, with interest from black farmers seeking new markets. Kweisi Mfume hailed the move as historic, noting Fidel Castro’s pledge to trade with black farmers appears fulfilled. No specific deals were announced.
