"Without action, this will happen again and soon." ACRE executive director @saqibbhatti.bsky.social calls out the anti-Muslim rhetoric and complicity of Big Tech, Wall Street, and big media conglomerates in this powerful Medium post.

“Treating ourselves and each other with care is how we build the world we want and deserve.” Remembering Amisha Patel, a lifelong organizer whose work helped reshape Chicago politics and showed what movements rooted in relationship, creativity and heart can build.

Trump & AIPAC have dragged us into another war that American people don’t want, but Israel desperately does. This war will upend the lives of millions in Iran and around the region, while lining the pockets of big oil, big tech, and the military contractors.

Absolutely massive crowd at Chicago solidarity march today despite heavy snow with snowflakes the size of golf balls. #ICEout

ACRE executive director @saqibbhatti.bsky.social shares how we're dangerously close to repeating history if we don't "fight like hell to make sure the richest people in the world aren’t rescued yet again while the rest of us are left to clean up their mess." bit.ly/4ivl5PJ

"Retaking control of our collective financial investment is an essential part of the fight against fascism and the destruction of our communities." - @acrecampaigns.bsky.social's @saqibbhatti.bsky.social and Sare Myklebust in @inthesetimes.com: inthesetimes.com/article/stra...

"In small towns that may have voted overwhelmingly for Trump, folks are still pissed off at the fact that he’s putting billionaires ahead of working people..." ACRE executive director @saqibbhatti.bsky.social discusses the power of #WorkersOverBillionaires on #LaborDay.

“We’re excited to see a lot of folks turning out & really turning up the heat on the admin & on the billionaires that are driving the agenda, especially as we’re seeing increased attacks on our communities,” @saqibbhatti.bsky.social w/ @acrecampaigns.bsky.social www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

This year, Labor Day is more than a barbecue. ACRE ED @saqibbhatti.bsky.social spoke with @usatoday.com about #WorkersOverBillionaires and why "it’s going to take a lot of mass protests all across the country to be able to really really turn back the tide of authoritarianism."

"When we were making the case for Lisa Cook’s nomination, we found that only two of 417 Federal Reserve staff positions at the time were Black; 318 of them were White. That’s a really big problem." ACRE ED @saqibbhatti.bsky.social shares his thoughts on the Fed after the firing of Lisa Cook.

Shame on Trump for trying to illegally fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook! It’s the latest blitz on the integrity of the Federal Reserve system—of which CFPB is the newest member. We stand in solidarity w/ Fed Gov Cook & all public servants working to keep our financial system safe for everyday people. ❤️

The same party that spent all last year making protecting democracy their main message is very quick to throw democracy out the window when voters choose Muslims, anti-Zionists, democratic socialists, or all of the above. www.startribune.com/minneapolis-...

Roses are red Violets are blue Israel is starving children to death And so are you 🥀

Israel and Musk: two assholes that don’t deserve our money jacobin.com/2025/07/dive...

Really proud to put this out today. State & local governments and pension funds need to stop investing in Israel's genocide, not just because it's immoral (although that alone is reason enough), but also because Israel's genocide bonds are a bad investment acrecampaigns.org/research_pos...

You can draw direct lines from one to the next: - America’s war on Iraq - Israel’s genocide in #Gaza - India’s attacks on #Pakistan All are cases of imperialist powers taking advantage of Islamophobia to launch offensive attacks using the fig leaf of self-defense as pretext.

Tomorrow is May Day. Intl Workers’ Day. Hundreds of thousands of will come together in more than 1,000 cities in all 50 states to stop the billionaire takeover and their attacks on our communities. Here are some of their reasons for marching. What are yours? #MayDay2025 #maydaystrong

"They're causing a crisis in our communities. We're going to bring that crisis directly to their doorsteps." #MayDay2025 www.commondreams.org/news/may-day...

“We couldn’t ask for a better endorsement of our movement than Tesla officially naming us as a risk factor. When the truth becomes a threat, you know you’re making an impact… The tremendous success of Tesla Takedown has created a powerful platform for broader impact.” techcrunch.com/2025/04/23/a...

Huge turnout at Chicago #HandsOff march

As Trump escalates his attacks on workers, the labor movement "must move aggressively to meet the present challenge." "We need a new infrastructure built for struggle — a network of people and organizations that are willing to take risks."

Hundreds at the #TeslaTakedown action in Chicago today
