The Bombing of Osage Avenue was produced by writer Toni Cade Bambara in her lesser known capacity as a filmmaker on the MOVE bombing that happened today in the year I was born, & you can actually watch the whole thing from PBS here.

#OtD 13 May 1985 Philadelphia police attacked the home of Black liberation and environmental group MOVE, then dropped a bomb on it, killing 5 adults and 6 children, destroying 61 homes in the predominantly Black neighbourhood, and making 250 people homeless.

Yes, assassination is just American individualism creating wannabe heroes. But collective action is different. All kinds of "violence" (usually defined by the media and the state) can be effective in stopping police.

A promoção do ódio tem consequências.

The Ukrainian resistance to civilian life in Iran, Iraq, Rojava, Lebanon, Yemen, Palestine, Sudan and Myanmar is fascinating and glorious and not at all campist, as long as you shy away from certain facts.

The police state is going global. Some people are getting rich off it. Let’s learn about it so we can fight back. youtu.be/648OYl3hyJ8

Historian of abolition here, history tells us how we got here, to put it succinctly “John Brown was hanged for treason and Robert E. Lee was not.”

La edad, el origen o las condiciones socioeconómicas condicionan la exposición a distintos tipos de violencia machista, según un informe del Ministerio de Igualdad. 

As far as I can tell, this idea that the anarchist PLM joined Orozco's rebel government is a lie. When Orozco rose up against Madero in March of 1912, the PLM's Regeneración immediately denounced him and called for resistance against him. But that wasn't even the first time they'd criticized him.

“For two decades the supporters of Bolshevism have been hammering it into the masses that dictatorship is a vital necessity for the defense of the so-called proletarian interests against the assaults of counter-revolution and for paving the way for socialism.” - Rudolf Rocker like we’re all stupid

On this day in 1885, Illinois state militia opened fire on striking quarry workers in Lemont, killing the workers Jacob Kugawa and Henry Stiller, and injuring others. Future Haymarket martyr, Albert Parsons, wrote about it in his anarchist periodical The Alarm.

Quando incitar a "tirar o fascismo das ruas" já serve de pretexto ao Estado-nação capitalista para criminalizar os movimentos de resistência coletiva popular. A fascização da Europa neoliberal com o Estado como inimigo da classe trabalhadora e movimentos socialistas e anarquistas

Brazilian educator Paulo Freire died on this day in 1997. “To alienate people from their own decision-making is to change them into objects.”

The overriding goal of America's right wing is to restore chattel slavery so they can own Black people. That's it. Whether they will admit it or not, whether they'll even admit it to themselves, their goal is legal domination and subjugation through violence of Black people. Everything leads there.

GALEANO VIVE, LA LUCHA SIGUE! Em um dia como hoje, no ano de 2014, o professor Galeano, do EZLN, foi assassinado por paramilitares em Chiapas, na comunidade de La Realidad. Ele era educador zapatista e integrava os processos autônomos de ensino indígena.

“Who were the pioneers of the eight-hour movement? Those martyrs who were strung from the gallows in Chicago on November 11, 1887, the much-lied-about and abused Anarchists.”– Lucy Parsons

This May Day, Chicago Teachers and many others are planning May Day Strong. Their three demands are; tax the rich, no ICE and no war, and expand democracy. Many are going to march, and in multiple cities, refuse business as usual entirely, no work, no school, no shopping.

The system is designed to target poor people. 70% of all people in jails are unconvicted, and most are there simply because they can't afford bail. For them, the median felony bail amount is the equivalent of 8 months’ income.

Former Panther, BLA member, and political prisoner Russell Maroon Shoatz described “the mosaic” as a model of what’s possible. It helps us see beyond the posturing and corniness that pervades US left sects, which remain stuck. Here's my latest for @prismreports.org. prismreports.org/2026/04/28/l...

“On that day [April 16, 2026] thousands of comrades and supporters marched through the center of Turin, demonstrating with fury and leaving behind only a small fraction of the violence unleashed everywhere by various governments and their armed forces.” In any case, no regrets.

the history of the anglosphere past the 1600s onward is the idea that if you are a sufficiently strong enough empire with enough financial and cultural power, you can commit multiple genocides, get away with it, and in the future the general public will think you are inherently cool

Centrist Democrats try to blame Biden's loss on those who protested the carnage in Gaza. That's backwards: Biden chose to repress the very social movements that were necessary to resist Trump. Those who claim that we must choose between opposing genocide and opposing tyranny pave the way for both.

Becoming an anarchist I think has irreversibly changed the way I interact with stories. I get irrationally infuriated when light & trashy stories introduce characters like police, soldiers, nobility, kings, etc. as main characters & romantic interests

This 4/20, we're thinking of the horrific impact that the U.S.'s war on drugs had on vulnerable communities. Today, drug offenses still account for the incarceration of over 360,000 people, and drug convictions remain a defining feature of the federal prison system.
