Them perp walking Maduro is incendiary.

Trump admin bullying Venezuela is an open colonial heist. It’s ‘give us all your oil or we will run up.’ Half the oil is already processed by Chevron. This is a geopolitical play to further interrupt Chinese mineral and energy interests. US maneuvers against China are driving the path to global war.

This is also proxy war, a la Cold War 2.0, with China.

Striking a sovereign country, kidnapping its leader, and opening a new war in our not so innocent names and with our collective wealth. The Trump admin is firing on all fascist cylinders. #HandsOffVenezuela

Hands off Venezuela, hands off Nigeria.

Where y’all submit (and read) left oriented writing these days for public engagement?

If tonight’s planned white house telecast is not to announce illegal war on Venezuela I’ll be shocked. #HandsOffVenezuela

A system that can’t halt genocide but continues to amass enough lethal force to destroy all known life, that can make resources available to some with a click but can’t provide food and water to all, and that can build death camps while hurricane victims remain unhoused must be uprooted and replaced

Hot conflicts and genocides all around metals and minerals. How long before all these proxy wars manifest as just full on World War III? We must demand peace and organize global solidarities that displace our current systems, national and international with something centered in the right to dignity

I don’t think we can ignore that the two hot spots of genocidal violence on the African continent—DRC and Sudan—host extensive mine interests by Chinese companies and that the “rebels” in one and the RSF the other are backed indirectly by the US or US allies. Please point me to some good reporting.

Bullying poor countries with the biggest martial force in the history of earth, is the surest sign of moral and social decay. It also illustrates the country’s slipping hegemony since the use of force is geopolitically expensive. Its giving the opposite of actual power apnews.com/article/trum...

Fascists are false flag stunt queens. Stay woke.

Hands off Venezuela!

This is major heist of collectively financed knowledge for private corporate AI development. Given AI companies current profiles in surveillance and war its our collective double financing our own ecological and social unmaking euphemistically named advancement. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

What could we imagine if both governing parties didn’t squander our collective wealth bombing (or bombing by proxy) poor Black and brown people all over the world and locking us up and running ice here? What if we gave one f-15 jet budget to every school district, or ice’s budget to public clinics?

IDF is bombing Lebanon this morning. Israel has broken the ceasefire in Gaza hundreds of times.

Between grant applications to forward collective work, writing and research, letters of rec, teaching and grading, as well as travel, Unc need a bed and a robe. That is all.

The value of reading history is you know that in 1860 there were abolitionists who were so demoralized that they thought chattel slavery would be permanent. 5 years later those still alive had lived to see its end.

Support for Javier Milei’s chaotic regime is explained by two factors. 1. Argentina is a test case for right wing, hostile political and economic reordering around a new level extreme disregard for the well-being of a national population for short run profit. 2. Milei booted China from rare earths.

in the US we will have to reckon with the costs of imperial chauvinism forwarded by both parties and all mainstream institutions that hid from us that China ended poverty while we have been immiserated, that Cuba has better longevity despite embargo, and that our interests are not the capitalists’.

This is a #MustRead @npr.org article. It's from a trusted source & it's absolutely terrifying.

This is yet another example of how you beat the far right. By beating them, not trying to be them. By having your own agenda, not aping theirs. With courage and conviction - and humour - not fear and timidity.

Barrack Obama has not congratulated Zohran Mamdani on his Facebook Page but he has offered his condolences to Dick Cheney’s family, that oughta tell you everything you need to know about what this overseer values in his twilight years

I’m excited we are hosting Marisa Solomon for our geography speaker series.

42 million face hunger, ICE build up and militarization are moving to terrorize Black and brown immigrants, the orange is attempting to end open speech, our collective resources are being marshaled for war in places most people can’t identify on maps. We must become ungovernable.

Get into this! Fan, @jtroane.bsky.social, have you seen this?

We're seeing in real time that many people are already in hell in that they carry hell with them wherever they go. Those making fun of people on SNAP are already in hell.

The US, UK, and the West, are supporting UAE. UAE is supporting the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The RSF is committing genocide in El Fasher, Sudan. End the genocide now!

Who can’t see the so called trade truce is the orange walking hat in hand , tip toeing around Xi, the obvious power holder? All this bravado and bluster about Venezuela and now Nigeria is cover for waning US might and an attempt to reclaim imperial dominance as it falters. #nowar

Keep your filthy orange mitts off of Venezuela and Nigeria.

The US, the UK and the West have blood on their hands in Sudan. They have not pressured the UAE to stop supporting what every expert saw coming with the RSF genocide in Sudan. It is because the UAE is a big investor in the West. Blood money. Genocide money. End the genocide now!!

Being historically illiterate costs us a lot.

ICE is a quickly consolidating secret and private police force that is already engaged in right wing style terror. If we allow it to continue, it will serve as the necessary force for the obvious third term push and the consolidation of a full fascist coup at hand. Abolish ICE.

As you can see from my already worn proof copy I had the delightful chance to read Ashley Farmer’s significant contribution in the biography of Audley Queen Mother Moore. This book is thoroughly researched and well executed. could serve as a textbook in Africana 20th century thought and movements
