Resisting the tide of repression that threatens the teaching of Black history, we should look to that past to understand the ongoing processes that have shaped our world. Our current predicament, marked by extreme inequalities, everyday violence, militarism, and political strife derives in part from the history of colonial conquest, slavery, and imperial warfare. Our struggles for freedom and dignity emerge from that history, too. By understanding it, we might discern the scope, force, direction, and likelihood of the changes ahead—and be guided by the example and the wisdom of our ancestors. Audience Q&A and a reception will follow.

In 1971, the United States cut the dollar loose from gold and gambled the entire global economy on a single question: what gives a piece of paper its value once the metal underneath is gone? The answer turned out to be oil — and the deal that made it happen was kept secret for forty-one years.
This is the story of the petrodollar: how a moment of weakness became the most durable instrument of power any nation has ever wielded. From the collapse of Bretton Woods and the Nixon Shock, to the 1973 oil embargo that quadrupled prices overnight, to the chain-smoking Wall Street bond trader who flew secretly into Saudi Arabia in 1974 to strike a deal that would anchor the dollar to the world's most essential commodity.
But this isn't just a story about American advantage. It's a story about a trap. We follow the petrodollars on their journey — from oil importers, into Gulf treasuries, through Western banks, and out as cheap dollar loans to the developing world. Then we watch Paul Volcker raise interest rates to nearly twenty percent and the bill reset overnight, triggering Latin America's "lost decade," sovereign defaults, and more than twenty million people pushed into extreme poverty.
We separate documented history from myth: the real secret Treasury bond arrangement versus the viral "single 1974 oil treaty" that never actually existed. We look honestly at the contested "petrodollar war theory" surrounding Iraq and Libya — what's proven, what's speculation, and why the truth refuses to be neat. And we examine whether the system is finally cracking, with the dollar's reserve share at a three-decade low, the rise of the petroyuan, and central banks quietly stacking gold.
How did America make the world buy oil in dollars? And who really got trapped in it?

Steve Cokely (June 17, 1952 - April 11, 2012) was an American political researcher and lecturer who lectured nationally on political and economic issues relating especially to the African American community.
Steve Cokely was also a futurologist who commented extensively on water conservation, organic farming, and communal living. Cokely gave over 5,000 lectures on the topic of global warming and corporate conspiracies, the Trilateral Commission, The Bilderberg Group, Rothchilds, Rockefellers, Boule, etc.
Cokely's research delved into the history of Marcus Garvey, the Black Panthers and other areas of African-American history.
Cokely lectured at many college campuses nationally and was also known for his conspiracy theories involving the Black Male elite organization known as the Sigma Pi Phi and the Assassination of Martin Luther King Jr by the hands of Rev.Jesse Jackson and the C.I.A.
Cokely was assistant to the special committee on rules under Mayor Harold Washington. He gained notoriety when he served as special assistant to the former mayor of Chicago, Eugene Sawyer.
Cokely was criticized for teaching that Jewish doctors were using the AIDS virus in an attempted genocide against Africans. His comments created a nationally publicized controversy in 1988 and he was dismissed from his position as aide to Sawyer.
When in 1990 Illinois Governor James Thompson signed an agreement to open an Israeli Aircraft Industries plant in Rockford, Cokely was an outspoken opponent. He argued that Black leaders in Illinois should oppose Israeli war industries because of their military support for the Apartheid system in South Africa.
Cokely gained the national spotlight again in 1996 after he was scheduled to speak at "Our Roots Run Deep", a Black History Month lecture series in New York City hosted by the Warner Music Group. Also scheduled were Al Sharpton, Conrad Muhammad, Jimmy Castor, Hannibal Lokumbe and Dick Gregory. The Jewish Defense Organization objected, organizing a call-in campaign to Warner Brothers and threatening a boycott. The Anti-Defamation League and the New York Post also objected to Cokely (as well as Sharpton and Muhammad) speaking at the event. Warner removed Cokely and Muhammad without issuing a press release.
