Recently revisited my 2023 @bostonreview.bsky.social essay on solidarity and social endurance with @clementpetitj.bsky.social . We talked about the major strategic debates on the US left today, despair and hyperpolitics, and…yoga! Thanks to Clément for the conversation and translation. 🙏🏼

Some good news: the highest court in New York has ruled to uphold the 15% rent reduction that the Kingston Rent Guidelines Board passed in 2022! This win reflects the tireless organizing of Kingston tenants against skyrocketing rents and mass displacement. www.timesunion.com/hudsonvalley...

Kingston rent reduction, rent control upheld by Court of Appeals

The decision ends a case that has been seen as a test of the state’s expanded rent-stabilization law.

I know my students don't love that I always assign group projects but right now, this is why I always assign group projects. Because we are in a group project. All day, every day. How else are you going to practice the skills you need for this?

The Overton Window has shifted all the way to ban all non-white people from coming to America. It was never about illegal immigration.

This is one of the most important topics I’ve written about recently. I really hope that more people understand how 287(g) could change the entire enforcement landscape. This could be an epochal shift. austinkocher.substack.com/p/trump-is-q...

Trump is Quietly Building a Deportation Army out of State and Local Agencies

Enrollment in the 287(g) program, which deputizes local police to do federal immigration enforcement, has exploded in recent weeks—but the administration has been surprisingly silent.

alright here's a Take: checks and balances (and federalism) were supposed to protect against tyranny. But instead they just prevented a "tyranny of the majority" from doing universal health care and gun control, and it turns out they do basically nothing to stop an autocrat

We like our coffee like we like our unions, STRONG! 💪 We’re still buzzing over Town of Ulster Starbucks workers' recent vote to unionize & join @sbworkersunited.bsky.social. Now we’re showing up to support other not-yet-union stores ahead of the company’s shareholder meeting next week.🤢

The image is a digital poster with a green background and illustrations promoting an event. At the top left, there is a drawing of a takeaway coffee cup. To the right, two circular logos are present: the left one reads "Mid Hudson Valley DSA" with a graphic of a rose and river; the right one says "Starbucks Workers United" featuring a hand gripping a coffee tamper. Large, bold white text in the center reads "Solidarity Sip-In!" Below, on a beige oval, smaller green text states, "Show support for Starbucks baristas." At the bottom, event details are listed in white: "Sat Mar 8, 2:30 PM, Poughkeepsie" and "Mon Mar 10, 1:00 PM, Kingston (Lake Katrine)." A fist holding a rose is depicted on the lower right side of the poster.

The argument is that the words “genocide,” “settler colonialism,” and “apartheid” in conjunction with “Palestine” are intrinsically antisemitic. This argument is itself antisemitic. The Jewish people are not committing a genocide. Israel, with the backing of the United States, is.

This is the message we need to send at #TeslaTakedown protests today: we know Tesla's trillion dollar valuation is built on fraud and abuse, and we are coming for it. We will make Tesla ownership a taboo, cars and stock, unthinkable to anyone who believes in the basic values of the U.S. constitution

Hard to exaggerate the stakes: If large numbers of unions, workers, and activists stand up in solidarity with federal workers, Musk can be isolated and defeated But if they don't, the immediate future for all our movements is looking pretty bleak

From @aaup.bsky.social, what to do if ICE is on your campus.

ICE On Your Campus
Questions to Ask Your Administration
1. What is campus policy with regard to working with federal immigration authorities?
2. Who should faculty contact in the event that they are approached by ICE agents?
3. What private/limited-access spaces can you make available where ICE agents cannot enter unless they have a valid warrant?
4. Are you planning to communicate with students, staff, and faculty about their privacy rights? These rights include the right to deny immigration officers entry to their homes (including dorms) unless officers have a judicial warrant, and the right to not respond to the questions or statements of an immigration officer who is seeking to enter their home without a judicial warrant.
5. Are you planning to communicate guidance that, if a federal immigration enforcement officer seeks to enter a limited-access area on campus, students and workers should ask the officer for their name, identification number, agency affiliation, and business card, and inform the officer that they are not obstructing their process but need to contact the campus legal counsel for assistance?
6. What campus authority should students contact if they are contacted by ICE?
What Chapter Leaders Can Do Now
1. Provide to faculty any campus plan or policy and any campus authority contact.
2. Create a list of immigration attorneys who can be contacted in case of emergencies day and night.
3. Distribute a family preparedness plan template to your members. Example: aaup.org/ILRC-plan
4. Conduct Know Your Rights sessions for your members; these do not have to be done by an attorney.
Recommendations for Organizing on Your Campus
Engage members via a petition, open letter, high-participation meeting, in-person demonstration, or other collective action to demand that your campus administrators:
1. Not comply with ICE to detain or deport students, faculty, or staff unless legally required to do so.
2. Ensure that noncitizens understand the difference between an …
