Yesterday in NY, leaders and civil society honored José “Pepe” Mujica, Uruguay’s former president. Spain, Chile, and Uruguay’s leaders asked: what would he say on dignity under neoliberalism, Gaza’s suffering, and LatAm unity? His words echo: “Sometimes, the impossible costs more.” #DemocracyAlways

Last week, Democratic Mayoral candidate for New York City, @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social, released a video highlighting the FIFA’s ticketing plan for the 2026 World Cup. Spoiler: It’s not good. Our report: rosalux.nyc/the-2026-emp...

"The champions of Democratic Socialism will need to continue to anchor campaigns in bread-and-butter economics." Jared Abbott and @sunraysunray.bsky.social analyse the results from the recent national poll and outline a path for Democratic Socialism to grow beyond blue strongholds.

The poll was conducted from August 22 to 24, 2025. It surveyed 1,257 likely voters nationwide using web panel respondents. It was conducted by Data for Progress for the DSA Fund, Jacobin magazine, and the Rosa Luxemburg Stiftung.

We supported another new study with the CWCP and @jacobinmag.bsky.social. It reveals where working-class voters stand on key issues and how they differ from wealthier Americans. The message is clear: economic populism must be the core of progressive appeals to workers: jacobin.com/2025/07/cwcp...

Join us at our office on Wednesday for this event with A Wisdom Keepers Delegation. This intimate gathering will highlight the delegation’s international efforts to bring Indigenous wisdom into the center of global climate discussions. RSVP NOW! www.awisdomkeepersdelegation.org/nyclimatewee...

Nice one, @teenvogue.com!

“These results tell a clear story: democratic socialism is now mainstream” A poll we supported reveals broad support for socialist policies and politicians among likely Democratic voters. @jacobinmag.bsky.social summarized the findings.

Capitalism is out … and socialism is in? A survey we supported found that Socialism is on the rise among likely democratic voters. @politico.com reports on the findings. @rosaluxglobal.bsky.social

"As a collective of homeless and marginally housed mothers, Moms 4 Housing organizes to reclaim vacant property warehoused by investors. In 2020, another group of mothers began squatting in vacant foreclosed properties owned by Philadelphia’s Housing Authority (PHA)." ❤️‍🔥

Can the Largest Socialist Organization in the US Galvanize the Resistance to Authoritarianism?

How does today’s DSA compare to Debs’s Socialist Party? In The Long Reroute, David Duhalde traces key debates in U.S. socialist history to help organizers make sense of the road ahead. A must-read before @demsocialists.bsky.social 2025 convention. rosalux.nyc/the-long-rer...

We were thrilled to welcome @pelledragsted.bsky.social, leader of the Enhedslisten party in Denmark, to our NYC office during his visit to the U.S. to present the newly released English edition of his book Nordic Socialism: The Path Toward a Democratic Economy. Thank you for a timely conversation!

On this day, 80 years ago, the city of Hiroshima was devastated by the first use of a nuclear weapon in war. Tens of thousands of lives were lost in an instant, and countless more suffered the enduring consequences of radiation, trauma, and displacement.

Join us tonight at the Scandinavia House in Manhattan!

In this new interview, Indigenous climate organizer Jacob Johns talks about what climate justice really means, why Indigenous sovereignty is central to the fight, and how communities are resisting extractive industries across the U.S. rosalux.nyc/the-indigeno...

2019 starteten 27 Jurastudierende aus Vanuatu eine Initiative, um Klimagerechtigkeit vor dem höchsten Gericht der Welt einzufordern. 6 Jahre später liefert der Internationale Gerichtshof ein historisches Gutachten zur Klimaverantwortung von Staaten. #Klimagerechtigkeit

The International Court of Justice has ruled that States have a legal obligation to regulate fossil fuel production as part of their climate commitments. This is a huge win for climate justice and for communities on the frontlines of the crisis! rosalux.nyc/icj-rules-st...

Just 10 days to the DC launch of Nordic Socialism at @politicsprose.bsky.social I’m really looking forward to the conversation with @joecguinan.bsky.social from @democracycollab.bsky.social about the book and the path forward for progressives.

The 6th Board Meeting of the Fund for Responding to #LossandDamage convenes from 9-11 July in Cebu, Philippines. Will they arrive at real sustainable solutions to hold #historical #polluters #accountable to #PayUp?

Is the #compromisodesevilla really the solution we need? @tetetlauron.bsky.social

🌍 At #FfD4, this side event brings Latin American perspectives to the forefront of discussions on aligning development finance with climate and environmental goals. With #COP30 approaching, the region’s experiences offer valuable direction.

The 4th International Conference on Financing for Development #FFD4 kicks off today. Leaders aim to adopt the “Seville Commitment” to help close the $4T gap blocking progress on the SDGs. Will Seville chart a new path toward global economic justice?

World leaders are gathering from 30 June-3 July 2025 in Sevilla, Spain for the 4th Conference on Financing for Devt (#FfD4) to adopt #CompromisodeSevilla, earlier approved by consensus in New York. The @UN calls it a ‘triumph’ of multilateralism. But is it, really? #FfD4People #SystemChangeNow

New York City steht vor einer der spannendsten und symbolträchtigsten Bürgermeistervorwahlen der letzten Jahre.

Squatting has long been a radical response to housing injustice. In New York City, activists turned abandoned buildings into homes—and some into permanent, affordable housing—challenging gentrification and reclaiming the right to the city. rosalux.nyc/self-help-ho...

The climate justice movement is done letting Big Polluters call the shots. At today’s UN talks in Bonn, activists demanded: Kick Big Polluters Out, now and for good. 📣 No to corporate capture! No to fossil-fueled violence! 📸: Oliver Kornblihht/Midia Ninja | Art: Artivists Network

Authoritarian regimes are rising, and with them, climate finance is collapsing. At COP29, rich countries dodged responsibility again. Loans and vague pledges aren’t justice. The Global South deserves reparations, not more debt. www.rosalux.de/en/news/id/5...

How can you be an activist and commit to mothering? The work of feminist organizers is not solely for the individual but for the collective. The impact of change is meant to last generations, and that's what we work toward. We contain multitudes. —— In partnership with @rosaluxnyc.bsky.social.

What would make the FFD4 a win for people and planet?
