With heavy hearts we share that Chuck Africa, former #PoliticalPrisoner and long-time friend and comrade of Philly ABC, joined the ancestors in the early morning hours on September 20th after a long struggle with cancer that began in prison 4 years ago. He will forever be remembered as someone who loved with all his might, and we will keep fighting in his honor. #RestInPower
