Read from Patrick Markee's Placeless: Homelessness in the New Gilded Age in @thenation.com www.thenation.com/article/soci...

In the ’90s, a group of advocates helped prove the merits of Housing First when they found stable homes for New Yorkers living in a train tunnel. The effort defied longtime stereotypes about homelessness—and was hugely effective. Now Trump wants to end it. https://bit.ly/3MyV31Y

‘Markee gives a fascinating history lesson and offers concrete hope.’ On 4th December 2025 Patrick Markee is set to publish his new novel which lays bare the realities of US homelessness. 👉Read more: newstartmag.co.uk/articles/ins... #news #NewYork #Homelessness #newbook #novel #book #housing

Thanks to @cdrose.bsky.social  (author of WE LIVE HERE NOW from @melvillehouse.bsky.social , winner of the @goldsmithsprize.bsky.social )  for this reading from @guillermostitch.bsky.social 's THE COAST OF EVERYTHING:

Another incredible prize win for one of our fabulous publishers @melvillehouse.bsky.social! Praised by the judges as "hilarious and deeply haunting," a huge congratulations to C. D. Rose for the #GoldsmithsPrize2025 for We Live Here Now!🎉 uk.bookshop.org/p/books/we-l...

We strongly condemn @CondéNast’s consolidation plans for Teen Vogue, a move that is clearly designed to blunt the award-winning magazine’s insightful journalism at a time when it is needed the most. More from our statement:

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

I was one of the four people who got canned. In the interim, you can subscribe to my newsletter, Straight From The Hut. No paywall, but feel free to choose the pay to support model. I'm not going anywhere — the show goes on, and I'll be back on MSNBC Saturday night. straightfromthehut.substack.com

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

Amazing. Great to see.

Congrats @cdrose.bsky.social - fantastic news ❤️

Got my book draft into my editor @melvillehouse.bsky.social earlier this week. My bf captured the moment perfectly 💕

2/ I stayed by Monica Moreta-Galarza, who was seeking asylum with her family, until she was discharged from the hospital. “Over [in Ecuador], they beat us there too. I didn’t think I’d come here to the United States and the same thing would happen to me,” she said in Spanish.

"Workers from more than 3 dozen Labor Unions, Advocacy Groups and Elected Officials will protest the abuse." They will demand “an immediate end to ICE’s Violent and Unlawful Actions.” The action comes after at least 16 Immigrants Died in Immigration Officials care" prospect.org/justice/2025...

✊POWERFUL! Today, NYers are sending a loud message of unity and resistance— joined by labor unions, advocates, and elected officials— as we shut down the streets surrounding 26 Federal Plaza to protest ICE’s inhumane mistreatment & abduction of immigrants. #ICEOutOfNy

Broadview, Illinois ICE Concentration Camp I speak to a lone officer, protected by a 13 foot gate decked out in gear, “You don’t have to do this. You are hurting the United States and innocent Americans”. He replies, “These are illegals, not americans like us”. I didn’t expect anything else tbh

“What we're seeing in LA right now can't be understood w/o recognizing impact of how organizers responded during the fires in Jan...the student intifada, the 2020 uprising.. expansive mutual aid efforts, & tenant organizing spearheaded by LA Tenants Union”

Joshua Clover’s introduction to the 2nd edition of Antifa was tremendous and resonates just as strongly today. #Antifa #NoPasarán

For a young Afghan named Ali, "the border was sometimes a baton, a clenched fist, a stick a soldier swung in the woods, a warning shot fired into the sky. … The border was also a routine." Read an excerpt of my new @melvillehouse.bsky.social book at @inkstickmedia.com:

LAPD officer Rick Linton is fucking unhinged and unloading on protesters at point blank range. FUCK THIS PIG!!

Again, LAPD using military style counter-insurgency tactics to victimize a largely not-violent protest action. And we should keep in mind this is not the national guard, this is the regular police force ostensibly controlled by state and city Democratic leaders.

When immigrants’ rights are under attack, what do we do?

I'm really stoked to see that Ron Jacobs reviewed my latest book, You Can Kill Each Other After I Leave ( @melvillehouse.bsky.social ), and did so this thoughtfully:

In solidarity with the movement in Los Angeles and elsewhere across the US, we've made Joshua Clover's Riot. Strike. Riot free to download.
