Elegi Tanah Deli karya Bachtiar Siagian menghimpun lima cerita tentang hidup buruh perkebunan Deli: dari mie rebus yang tak terbeli, gudang beras, roti tuan besar, kamar 3x3 meter, hingga hari tua pekerja yang perlahan habis dimakan tanah kolonial.

Pelajar asli Papua, 17 tahun, tewas ditembak oleh tentara saat sedang mendulang emas di wilayah bekas aliran limbah tambang PT. Freeport demi mencari uang untuk kuliah

Dimiskinkan sistem, dibunuh aparat negara

Never forget, never forgive

Jacobin again smears another third world revolution.

Ibrahim Traoré has never claimed to be Sankara’s heir.

The people of Burkina Faso and the Sahel are! They are seizing Sankara’s unfinished project: liberation from neocolonialism, on their own terms.

On my way to the fourth largest country in the world to speak at Jakarta and at Bandung, as well as to meet a range of people, and to meet publishers and writers to discuss the publication of several books on the history of the country and on its potential.
Grateful to Penerbit GDN (run by the historian Didik Hariyanto) for this entire trip, and to Marjin Kiri (run by my friend Ronny Agustinus) - both of whom have published my work in Bahasa Indonesia.

a poster announcing Palestinian Newsreel, circa mid 70s. a series of films made by the Palestine Film Unit/PCI. I believe 7 of these films in total were made, each about 20 to 25 minutes long. all lost in the looting of the archives.

One of the Ali LARIJANI friend shared a story - The Other Side of Mr. Larijani. He writes;

A few months ago on an autumn afternoon at their home, I met his wife. We were supposed to talk about her mother, but throughout our entire conversation, "ALI" never left her lips.

She said: "When Ali is not home, it feels like my hands have been cut off! When Ali is here, he does all the household chores. Without me even asking him to, he moves the groceries. He cleans the vegetables, chicken & washes the dishes."

My mouth hung open at the thought: how could a man who carries Iran's national security on his shoulders outside the home be able to clean chicken and wash dishes at home.

She further said, "Ali hadn't been home for six months. Ever since the twelve-day war, he was no longer allowed to have a normal life."

A man whom the world's superpowers had put a bounty on to kill, was a romantic soul with the heart of a young man, a seasoned demeanour & calm maturity.

Farideh said, "Ali never took a salary from the parliament, nor from his later responsibilities. His salary for years has been the same as a university professor, from which he even deposits a portion each month into the public treasury so as not to be indebted. She said when we were buying this house, we needed money, and my daughter suggested, "Dad, couldn't you take your back pay from the parliament?" But Ali refused and said: "We owe this country so much. I have no claims."

These words were said by someone who, from the first days of the revolution, had not spent a moment in comfort and had run and toiled for Iran.

She said, "Ali's family was above my family, and they had plenty of land and sheep in the north. But the house they had chosen for us after marriage was so small that Agha Shaheed Motahhari (Father of Fareed) had to buy two sofa sets and two carpets for his daughter's dowry to fill the empty spaces in the house."

Those same sofa sets and carpets that were still in Ali and Farideh's home, and they had no other sofas besides the ones that Martyr Motahhari had bought forty years ago. It wasn't strange at all.

Farideh said: "In these forty-something years since my father's martyrdom, Ali has been a father to me, and a husband, and a friend, and a teacher. I can't bear to see even a single hair missing from his head."

Last night, when I read the news of Mr. Ali's martyrdom with the phrase "Ali Larijani has been martyred," I wasn't worried about him at all, or even the revolution. But I thought a lot about Ms. Farideh. About a woman whose father Morteza was martyred one day & yesterday her friend, teacher, and husband Ali—who, when he was not home, feels like Farideh's hands have been severed—and even her son Morteza, who had a beautiful voice and gave a lovely call to prayer.

I am sure that a single sigh from this woman could uproot America and Israel.

Dear decolonial scholars,

It is possible to see Iran (IRGC, QUDS Force, Ayatollah Khamenei) as modern day Mau-Mau, FRELIMO, Umkhonto we Sizwe, Maji-Maji Rebellion, Angola’s MPLA & FNLA, Zim's ZANU, ZAPU, India’s INC, the Seyyid of Somalia.

BUT more sophisticated – performing commendably – than those who came before them. Dealing with a more advanced, more aggressive colonizer.

See, the people who forced structural adjustment on us, reclaimed ownership of our resources, and thereby rolled back all our gains of independence, are the same bombing Iran, Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan. The language is different but the interests are all the same: natural resources, land, no resistance at all.

[Assal Rad @AssalRad]

The difference is by design.

[☀️👀 @zei_squirrel]

RIP Khamenei, leader of the Islamic Revolution and Iranian nation and people for decades, steering it through the War on Terror and establishing a network of alliances based on solidarity and resistance to genocidal Zionist imperialism, from Lebanon to Yemen and Iraq

One of the most loving things you can do for yourself right now is to extend yourself the grace this moment demands. It’s not easy to witness the cruelty and perversions of the oppressor being revealed around us. Anyone who is paying attention is carrying real weight. If you’re exhausted and overwhelmed, those aren’t signs of weakness. It’s evidence that your humanity is still intact. This cycle of cruelty doesn’t end by becoming harder; it ends when we refuse to abandon ourselves and all others fighting for collective liberation. Remaining soft in a hard world is not indulgence; it’s how resistance stays human.

The Global Sumud aid flotilla will set sail from Barcelona to Gaza on March 29, with stops in Tunisia, Italy, and other Mediterranean ports.

Unlike previous missions, this flotilla will include thousands of participants, such as medical professionals, eco-builders, and war crimes investigators.

Activists describe it as an alternative to the Trump plan, emphasizing Palestinian participation in rebuilding their homeland.
