Here is a curriculum I wrote on police murder of Black people to accompany a study on extrajudicial killing. Check out both the study and curriculum here. Love and Solidarity https://t.co/01q8sKLJ3N
🇻🇪 🚨 URGENT! COUP ATTEMPT UNDERWAY IN VENEZUELA!
Democracy is under attack as the far-right mobilizes violent protests to attempt to overthrow President Maduro who won yesterday’s elections. History shows us that these coup attempts are often orchestrated directly by Washington and by allies of U.S. imperialism.
Stand on the side of the people and for democracy! HANDS OFF VENEZUELA! #Venezuela #HandsOffVenezuela
Cal Poly Humboldt’s occupation is being ignored by most media and organizations, perhaps because its students are primarily working class and employing the most advanced militant tactics we’ve seen in the country. Classes have been canceled the rest of the semester…
Will Alexander is flying from the City of Angels to read & commune with Tongo Eisen-Martin! Please join us in welcoming him on Weds, March 27, 6PM @HoughtonLib. This is our 1st guest-curated event! Meaning: I get to kick back & truly be present while @_Tongogara_ works his magic.
Palestine will be free.. Incredibly powerful action today.. Bay Area to Gaza… We will continue to stand & fight for your freedom.. From the river to the sea.. Thank u to the organizers who are relentlessly taking it to the next level.. None of us are free until we are all free..
America has seen a 6 yr old Palestinian boy & his mother stabbed in Illinois, an Arab American woman stabbed in TX, 3 Palestinian students shot in Vermont, a dozen Columbia students chemically attacked, another Palestinian American man stabbed in TX…
i’m anti “______ is resistance”. whether it’s art, joy, rest, love, etc. we’re too far removed, gettin reminded daily how unprepared we are for impending crises, to afford any ambiguity or misinterpretation about what must be done.
BREAKING: another stabbing attack on a Palestinian-American has occurred. Last night in #AustinTX, a group of American Muslims were driving home after a pro-Palestine protest when this man approached their vehicle at a stop sign, started screaming the n-word and other obscenities, attempted to rip their Free Palestine flag off their car, yanked one of them out of the vehicle, started a fight, and ultimately stabbed a 23-year-old Palestinian-American in the chest.
Alhamdulillah, the young man is now recovering after surgery and the suspect has been arrested. We call on local and federal law enforcement to file hate crime charges against the suspect, who police have identified as #BertJamesBaker.
From the murder of six-year-old Wadea outside Chicago to the shooting of three college students in Burlington, Vermont, far too many violent attacks like this have occurred over the past four months.
Those responsible for this violence must be prosecuted to the full extent of the law...and those fomenting the anti-Palestinian and anti-Muslim hate that leads to this violence must be condemned. #Austin #Islamophobia #FreePalestine
Israeli soldiers abducted a pediatrician, tortured & starved him for 45 days. He reported for work in hospital in southern Gaza a day after he was released. The mind cannot fathom the humanity and strength this takes.

NYU just committed one of the most blatant acts of anti-Palestinian repression yet.
They suspended a student for a year and took away her scholarship because she tore down an Israeli poster.
BT’s @KeiPritsker spoke to Hafiza Khalique about her suspension.
Three police officers went to an *elementary* school in Tennessee & arrested four Black girls.
One girl fell to her knees. Another threw up. Police handcuffed the youngest, an 8 yo with pigtails.
Their supposed crime? Watching some boys fight — and not stopping them. (THREAD)
