Theories of anti-capitalist and decolonial transformation must inform our efforts, but revolutions are built in practice, not on paper. History must be our guide, but this moment in the collapse of Western imperialism has no precise precedent, so our freedom dreams must surpass our ancestors’ in their audacity. Revolution is evolution; it is a dynamic process that must be given new life in each age and epoch until freedom is finally seized. We must cultivate the radical imagination, ingenuity, and empowerment to light our own way to liberation.
Join Dr. Butch Ware, and a host of artists, intellectuals, activists, and organizers for an afternoon of political organizing, cultural production, spiritual communion, and solidarity building.
There will be panel discussions, musical performances, free food and drink, poetry, live podcast recordings, mutual aid activations, direct action and electoral power building sessions.
The goal is to connect comrades, creators, and communities so that together we can chart our next steps in building revolutionary culture, love, and political power.
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna says she’s pursuing criminal charges for assault. She claims I “smacked” her.
What do you think happened?
Watch the video and vote in the comments:
1. Yes, you hit her. I hope she got medical attention.
2. You barely touched her. This is a ridiculous attempt to criminalize protest.
Trump and the rich are destroying our world — not transgender people! Fight for socialism and LGBTQ+ liberation! 🌈
Thanks to the sacrifice and courage of generations of brave fighters for LGBTQ equality, we have seen a transformation of legal rights and social norms in our lifetime. But now, Trump and so many other right wing politicians are making a historic effort to tear up what our people have accomplished. It is up to us to carry on the legacy of struggle in this dangerous moment.
This Pride month is an opportunity to take to the streets and show that we will not go back – and that we will fight for a whole new system based on equality instead of division!

Two years ago, City Hall cut our fraud, waste, and abuse unit's budget.
Today, we still haven't gotten those investigator positions back.
Even AFTER catching TENS of MILLIONS of $ in fraud, waste, and abuse with only FIVE investigators for the 2ND LARGEST CITY IN THE COUNTRY -
No mention of genocide, apartheid, boycotts, divestments or sanctions at the AIPAC approved California governor debate last night.
Meanwhile a progressive site hosted a poll asking who the people want to hear from.
Understand now why the Dems are illegally trying to keep me off the ballot and out of debates?
“Matt Kennard exposes the haphazard cultivation and use of an increasingly extra-judicial architecture of violence—one that may be beyond reform. A stark warning.”

Wow.
Our opponent’s mom is spending $2.5 million to oust me as LA City Controller.
Get ready to be bombarded w/ dishonest attacks and ads propping up our opponent, who oversaw the downfall of Radford Studios, defaulting on $1.1 BILLION‼️ He now wants to watch over your money?
Douglas MacGregor just laid out the tragic history of US-Iran relations. After 9/11, one million Iranians poured into the streets in Tehran and elsewhere with candlelight vigils to mourn the American dead. There was real hope for an improved relationship. We spit in their faces.
General Soleimani helped us in Iraq, persuading Shiite militias to stop fighting us. He helped us against ISIS. Those Shiite militias liberated Christians, Sunnis, Yazidis, Druze. They fought with us, not against us. All of this was swept away in favor of Israel's agenda

In 2006, immigrant communities and allies shut down business as usual in a general strike to stop the Sensenbrenner bill — a racist assault on immigrants and all working people.
We must take these lessons as we build our movement today against the Trump administration’s wide scale assault on our communities.
