Somebody on twitter compared Don Lemon to Ida B Wells writing about lynching. Y’all have lost your minds I fear.

In the US, Muslims are seen as antisemitic by default. I've experienced this my whole life.

What a week

Leftists rehashing debates from the 1800s over authority and authoritarianism as terms in the midst of fascism is such an indictment of what leftism means in this era. To say people are stuck is an understatement.

Missing 28-year-old woman found dead inside Vallejo home

at its essence, the act of loving is seeing the frailty of others and embracing them fully…still…

Maybe I’m lame but I notice every time someone doesn’t openly support me and does it for other people. Like what’s that all about!

COVID-19 has revealed that much of the US public is willing to accept mass death and abandonment. We were pushed by propaganda to see many around us as disposable. That helped set the tone for current fascist violations. I wrote about it for @prismreports.org. prismreports.org/2025/09/16/c...

The Dems can “condemn” violence all they want. The right-wing establishment is still going to target them any opportunity they get. Any liberal condemnations just expedite the process of justifying their own destruction.

The betrayal is mostly in your head if the person (or parties) you think did the betraying were never on your side to begin with.

“It doesn’t matter if you’re minding your business, fighting back, or hiding somewhere quietly—tyranny comes for everyone.”

Please support if you can. This is an opportunity for these revolutionary elders to offer some perspective on resistance right now as well as celebrate some recent accomplishments 💕

I just listened as well, here is the audio - you can hear Kalief recount in his own voice what solidarity confinement feels like for a teen. I feel we owe it to him to listen since he should still be here and the system that killed him, which we can fight, heaps these evils on others everyday...

Happy Birthday to JoNina Abron-Ervin, a person with invaluable knowledge and contributions. Support her important work on this special day 🎂

Breaking News: At least eight people were killed and hundreds injured in Kenya as thousands faced off with the police amid nationwide protests.

“They organize liberals and others into mass coalitions just to seize power, and then crush all radical and liberal ideological opponents after they get done with the fascists.”

This is so so good.

Workers at UCSF Benioff Children's Hospital Oakland, Walnut Creek to strike this week

This felt like medical experimentation being performed through the body of a Black woman (again!) from the beginning.

221st. At least.

Niggas didn’t have half the heart of Malcolm. I’m reminded of this each time we celebrate his birthday.

“Now that listeners have the option of picking around an album on streaming platforms, the b-sides are losing their luster and the popularity of sameness prevails.”– @shootmeadub.bsky.social mariyamwrites.substack.com/p/your-algor...

How can other Black people or I rest our hopes in law that was designed by slaveholders, colonizers, or political powers? Doing what’s right isn’t all about what’s legal, argues @williamcson.bsky.social. Abiding by the legal contours of genocide, colonialism, slavery, & capitalism will not free us.

Camille Yarbrough is who comes to mind when I think of artists that took the same path as Gil Scott-Heron in making political/resistance music. Her album “The Iron Pot Cooker” requires full digestion, embodiment.

if u are fuming at mass deportation of migrants to El Salvador's CECOT prison, u should also be fuming that people are being deported at all. Plus, much of the $ for the securitization & border externalization & carceral regimes in Central America has LONG come from US-backed neoliberal war on drugs

BlackPast has a comprehensive list of Black history museums across the country:

Why is the media saying “mistaken deportation?” It’s not an accident.

The Disappearance of Julio Zambrano The Venezuelan asylum seeker was living in North Carolina legally. He has no criminal record, and no evidence he was a gang member. So why did the Trump administration send him to a brutal prison in El Salvador? www.theassemblync.com/politics/tru...

Debates about anarchism versus socialism reveal that many people are unaware of the history of the socialist movement. At Offshoot, we made a zine explaining how this nonsensical binary shows a need for more political education on these terms people misrepresent. offshootjournal.org/anarchism-or...

Eid Mubarak. Peace & liberation to those who fight for liberation daily, our political prisoners, and those who choose to fight despite the inevitability of imprisonment and/or death. May we have even a fraction of the courage of our martyrs. May we find peace in this life & the next.

The connection I feel between his writing & music is so strong. I wasn’t a huge fan of his style prior to The Message but I was impressed. Eloquently written & necessary.
