On Juneteenth, we reflect on the massacre at Emanuel AME Church, where nine Black churchgoers were murdered by a white supremacist ten years ago. That same fascist ideology continues today—from Charlottesville to January 6 to Trump’s attacks on DEI and Black history. www.youtube.com/shorts/jZLDL...

Today, in 1919, Emiliano Zapata Salazar (August 8, 1879 – April 10, 1919) was assassinated. To many, he was a practical revolutionary and realist with the goal of achieving political and economic emancipation of the peasants in southern Mexico and leading them out of severe poverty.

I think the separation between the hands off protests and Palestine protests so far has been very intentional. I’d like to say at least one major party here is benefitting greatly from the Palestine protests and if they normally won’t dare to do coalitions locally they aren’t doing it nationally.

By robbing federal workers of their right to organize, Big Business seeks to discipline labor and further attack public-sector workers. This is an attack on all workers, part of the capitalists’ broader strategy to weaken the working class and consolidate power for the billionaires.
