Writing for https://t.co/sSwnZu1iQj, Espérant Mwishamali Lukobo and Sara Geenen argue narratives that portray artisanal Congolese cobalt miners as violent criminals or illegal invaders of industrial concessions make things worse, reinforcing the marginalisation and insecurity that mining communities already face.

"Theory becomes a material force as soon as it has gripped the masses. It is capable of gripping the masses as soon as it becomes radical. To be radical is to grasp the root of the matter. But, for man, the root is man himself."

— Karl Marx, 1843

143 years since Marx passed away.

"The worker becomes poorer the more wealth he produces."

Record profits. Record hunger. Wars for markets and minerals. Public systems gutted.

Cubans have vowed to resist, as they have done for over 60 years, facing and defeating all sorts of efforts to sabotage, assassinate, destabilize and undermine their revolutionary, socialist project. Here's some notable elements of the six-decade US war on Cuba.
