💥 Our new issue "Black Indigeneities" is out! It's urgent to follow this issue’s contributors when they note that very notions of Blackness and Indigeneity emerge from an epistemological framework focusing on European settler colonialism (more particularly in North Atlantic, but not exclusively).

For the first time since WWII an extreme right party is #1 in the German polls. Anti-fascist economic policy is urgently needed. Instead the new coalition agenda entails: - cut profit tax - end 8 hr workday - open tap for defense, austerity for the rest - weaken social security

This morning, M23 entered #Bukavu and took control of key locations including the governor’s residence and Ruzizi 1 border crossing. Amidst broader confusion, M23 entry had been erroneously reported since Friday night owing to inconclusive videos circulating on social media.
