After the Black Panther Party ended, Kiilu Nyasha became known as a journalist. She hosted a radio show where she did interviews and wrote articles for San Francisco newspapers. After Hurricane Katrina, she gave a speech at the University of Arizona about the U.S. government's racism. She often spoke out to say other revolutionaries who were in prison should be released; one of the prisoners she supported the most was Mumia Abu-Jamal, who is also a journalist. Kiilu Nyasha kept doing journalism and activism right up to the time she died.
