Trump is glorifying the memory of Columbus by reviving #ColumbusDay, but that’s an insult to Native Americans. 1492 didn’t mark the start of a dream; it marked the beginning of genocide. @adrianthomas1990.bsky.social

The spirit of Bandung wasn’t just about being free; it was about being free together. The Global South has always fought for freedom, but Bandung was a radical moment of collective liberation. Made possible through unity and solidarity @progintl.bsky.social #LAI2027

Israel would not have been able to sustain its wars across the Middle East without the United States’s significant financial backing of more than $21bn since October 2023. www.aljazeera.com/features/202...

"The international community must finally recognize the failures of the past and the reality on the ground. No true or lasting peace can be made without the dismantling of Israel’s apartheid system. Real pressure must be applied to Israel for this to happen." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/22/o...

Mustafa Barghouti: The United States isn't just complicit in Israels genocide, its participating in it. Absolutely. This genocide is Americas as much as its Israels.

Military Keynesianism boosts profits and strengthens the state. More importantly, the threat of war helps to keep people scared and divided, making them much less likely to fight back against this corrupt and broken system. tribunemag.co.uk/2025/06/the-...

“Israel continues to inflict unimaginable suffering on the people living under its occupation, whilst rapidly expanding confiscation of land as part of its wider colonial aspirations. What we are witnessing could very well be another Nakba.” 1/5 www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...

Are you ready to learn why nonviolence has become irrelevant in #Palestine? Apparently @BenEhrenreich wasn't when he went there to write this.

Katz, ministre israélien de la Défense assume l'utilisation de la faim comme arme de guerre et admet: Israël n’a pas l’intention de se retirer des territoires occupés dans la bande de Gaza, au Liban, en Syrie. Le but israélien est une occupation prolongée, voire l'annexion. 1/3
