It's a critical time to be building the liberatory cultural front in the US. People's assemblies are movement and solidarity economy technologies we must access in this moment. Who will be in New Orleans next month? Hit me up! Thank you National Performance Network <3 npnweb.org/ac2025/

it really is astonishing how quickly it goes from “civil war” and “blood in the streets” to “wow guys it’s just a sad tragedy” when it becomes inconvenient

This is so “grew up in NYC”

Our hearts are heavy for the grieving family of Jaime Alanis, who died from injuries sustained during a chaotic raid on Thursday. We will do everything we can to support them. We continue to work with the hundreds of farm worker families navigating the aftermath of this violent raid.

Immigrant movements (Spanish speaking) have been saying: LA MIGRA. LA POLICIA. LA MISMA PORQUERIA. POL(ICE) = THE SAME $HIT

Seen in Utah. ICE is now marching through suburban neighborhoods, conducting home raids. Their budget is now bigger than that of the Marines, and the entire military budgets of Israel and Russia. Coming soon to a neighborhood near you.

I mean there’s only so much his win can do to push these party insiders to act right but the fact that his margins in their districts has at least forced them to kiss the ring is pretty sweet. Honestly surprising Goldman and Jeffries haven’t caved under the pressure to endorse yet.

Back in stock! A zine from Earth Liberation Studios about navigating the contradictions of being an anti-capitalist artist within capitalism. justseeds.org/product/maki...

They do not own acting or music or theater or any of the other artistic sources of joy that we love and create. Those belong to the People & always will. Part of building the world we want is finding ways to bring these talents to the world while ignoring the paths they want us to use.

now ese tigere needs to answer for all that sweet sweet aipac money

I have no more capacity to organize but one very useful thing that people could do in their individual states is to track all of the "DHS Gestapo recruitment fairs" over the next few years and then organize direct actions at each fair. Show up with posters telling folks not to sign up etc...

"We built systems to care for ourselves. Mutual aid societies. Churches. Co-ops. Cultural spaces. These weren’t nonprofits. They were infrastructures of survival, resistance, and self-determination." - Damien Davis for @hyperallergic.com Yes! hyperallergic.com/1021609/june...

Please join me a week from today in NYC at Prime Produce Cooperative for a book reading of “Mood Machine” by @lizpelly.bsky.social and community discussion of how we built the (art) worlds we want in the shell of this dystopic moment for culture workers! RSVP: www.eventbrite.com/e/art-worlds...

I love what Flaming Hydra is building. Creative cooperatives and collaborative productions are the way to move forward in our riddled, flailing media ecosystem.

if there's a thing about Mamdani I find most exciting it's the additional momentum it adds to the developing version of left politics in the US that is not only open to winning but plans on it

Ann Coulter's statement that "We didn't kill enough Indians" is a call for violence against Native people.

Democratic socialism is an America tradition: Tom Paine proposed a social welfare state. Many founding members of the GOP were socialists. Milwaukee elected 3 Socialist mayors. FDR was influenced by Socialist Norman Thomas. Socialist A. Philip Randolph was a key March on Washington organizer.

1 year ago today, Sonya Massey, a Black woman who called 911 for help, was gunned down in her home by a white police officer with a history of misconduct and aggression. Sonya should be here. We mourn with all who love her. Police violence is gun violence. There must be justice for Sonya.

Bluesky history enjoyers: who would you say are the most prominent examples of historians who were also major historical actors? The ones that jump out at me are Walter Rodney, Adolphe Theirs, and W.E.B Du Bois

Residents in Buffalo are rallying around an asylum-seeking family as unmarked Immigration and Customs Enforcement vehicles have been spotted in their neighborhood.

I think what's really freaking people out is that most Americans under 40 already have

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

-A living wage -Guaranteed healthcare -The right to join a union -The right to vote -The right to choose when, how, and with whom you start a family -The right for you and your family to live free from gun violence These are the foundations of real freedom.

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy. I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

A message from the striking municipal workers of Philadelphia:

Let’s take the win, push more people around this idea of democracy in our economy and not idolize or condemn him automatically for his inevitable mistakes. 5,000 people or something signaled they want to run for office on progressive platforms (whatever that means, but it’s not a bad thing).

#MAGAMurderBill is the only apt descriptor for this evil monstrosity that will empower the regime to do away with whomever they deem undesirable.

There’s a concentration camp in Florida. It is profit-making and run by a private company, with full government approval. Human beings, here, seeking better lives will be locked up indefinitely in unbearable heat, surrounded by snakes and alligators. This is systemic, racialized incarceration.

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

Zohranomics is an effective form of antifascist economic policy. The crisis of economic security that comes with basic questions of dignity & identity is being used by the far right. An agenda laser-focussed on the needs of ordinary people is the way out.

There's a lot to be said about identity, solidarity. But a simple place to start: the people who are willing to fight for their neighbors when their neighbors have different problems have a very, very good chance of having neighbors to fight with when you all share problems

Corporate journalism must change or die. The first changes need to be small—or change won't start at all. A good first step: correctly report that Mamdani is a democratic socialist and REFUSE TO PUBLISH any claim that he's a Socialist or Communist because that's false and therefore not newsworthy.

“Solidarity defines our victory.” - Zohran Mamdani

Clinton, Clyburn, Summers, Palantir, Bloomberg, NYT, Wall St, AIPAC...all tried their best. The entire establishment went full racist and Islamophobic in the end. Still Mamdani won. Biggest F U to the Democratic Establishment and 1% since AOC win. Wow.

On Friday night, we walked the length of Manhattan, from Inwood Hill to Battery Park. New Yorkers deserve a Mayor they can see, hear, even yell at. The city is in the streets.
