Palestine is bleeding out, and the U.S. government is twisting Israel’s knife in Gaza’s wounds. It has been over 500 days of relentless genocide, the death toll has crossed 50k, and the architects of imperialism are not hiding their plans to build condos on the rubble of Palestinian homes.

Trayvon’s life was taken by a white vigilante w/ self-imposed power as an extension of the police state, and his tragic murder ignited a movement that woke up millions in defense of Black life. We owe it to him to stand tall and fight for the world they deserved. We need you. Happy Birthday Trayvon🕊️

Malu Brooks💥 from @dreamdefenders.bsky.social, bringing this fire reminder for the role of activist archivists during "shock and awe"--"We no longer armchair revolutionaries...we're using academia for our people"

This is our friendly reminder that executive orders aren’t legislation, but directives on how the federal gov’t should be moving according to the administration. They inform how the state distributes resources, but are not yet laws.🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Trump was just sentenced to...nothing. Judge Juan Merchan ruled "unconditional discharge," which means the president-elect won't see jail time, probation, fines, or community service—nothing.

60 years after the assassination of Malcolm X, a major lawsuit aims to prove the U.S. government played a role in his murder — and all eyes should be on the outcome

While the U.S. throws another $8B in weapons to “Israel”, California is using slave labor from incarcerated people to fight wildfires. We are and have always been disposable to the ruling class. Organize accordingly.

Biden is sending "Israel" $8 BILLION in weapons to sustain the genocide of Palestinians. The U.S. will write blank checks to ensure the Zionist entity can continue to murder generations of families and expand their imperial violence into the region. Joe Biden's legacy will be genocide.

#DDisReading H.L.T Quan's "Become Ungovernable: An Abolitionist Feminist Ethic for Democratic Living" applies a Black feminist analysis to the history of governability as a tool to deny the humanity of formerly enslaved Africans. Reading level: Academic with some smooth jazz #BookSky

The man who, in 2018, called our pledge against state violence a “manifesto” and this year supported deporting students who protested for Palestine, could oversee the Department of Defense.😐

This is why we don’t look to the most powerful people in marginalized groups. While they are working on fitting in, their actions often reinforce the center that keeps everyone else out.
