Check out our new zine: "Appalachian Resistance Histories" Did you know the first abolitionist newspaper in the US came out of Appalachia? Have you ever heard about Harlan County Youth Liberation, or miners in E TN freeing convict laborers from prison? https://t.co/30brf1YhyL

Gadsden Black Lives Matter organizer Jerome Gunn and his wife, who has hosted a brake light clinic and The Gadsden Free Store, had their business firebombed last night.

Please donate to their recovery efforts if you can on CashApp ($Jasmine497) or Venmo (jasmine-Wilson-192).

Stunning video of Monday’s Indigenous-led blockade against the #BorderWall at Organ Pipe, where wall construction is desecrating O’odham sacred sites & pushing endangered species to the brink of extinction.

New: Data shows right-wing vigilantes & paramilitaries have confronted or attacked anti-racist protesters about 500 times since cops killed George Floyd in May. This includes at least:

64 assaults
38 attacks by car
9 shootings
3 deaths

Oh look a bonafide white supremacist is working for a Republican connected far right "news" source down in the mountains of NC

[PeterGelderloos @PeterGelderloos]

A fair model for what's happening now is the "Strategy of Tension" in Italy in the '60s and '70s. Police used the far Right to attack the struggle, killing people and exhausting the movement, media and politicians portrayed it all as a clash between equally violent and...

[Vitalist International @VitalistInt]

We must prevent the spiral of violence from swallowing emancipatory and aspirational feelings and ambitions.

If the movement de-escalates into small groups of men shooting each other, we may condemn another generation — ourselves — to the trash heap. 1/2

You have a group of young protestors who have slept outside of the TN state Capitol for 60+ days, they wanted a meeting with our governor. Our governor responded by making it a felony to sleep outside the Capitol. What in the Jim Crow is going on

In Richmond, Virginia tonight, musicians came together and played “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” in honor of Elijah McClain, a 23-year-old Black man who was killed by police last summer.

He loved the violin and taught himself to play

Early this morning, Kumeyaay youth blocked construction vehicles building border wall near San Diego. They’re still blocking construction equipment which they say are illegally destroying important cultural and historical sites. Full story soon for @KPBSnews.

[The Decolonial Atlas @decolonialatlas]

Deporting hundreds of thousand of international students who came here "the right way" during a global pandemic just shows that ICE doesn't care about "legal" vs "illegal" immigration. Its purpose isn't public safety or law enforcement. Mask off - it serves only white supremacy.

UPDATE: We just spoke with Keith Family Vision, the Eye Clinic where Sonya worked.

She no longer works there.

Salute to them for doing the right thing. Hate never wins. @TriCitiesHoller
