@esglaude Monday May 19th marks 100 years since the birth of Malcolm X. So what should I read to learn about him?
@esglaude quotes Malcolm X as saying he always listens to Baldwin because he "always learns something from the little brother"
Feeling the despair?
James Baldwin has a prescription for those who would like to pivot towards a better tomorrow. It's not easy but it is rewarding.

Like Trump, the Democrats in the Biden administration did not understand how to manage empire. They supported and continue to support expansionist military fiascos in the Middle East and the proxy war in Ukraine, and acted as bag carriers for the extremist government in Israel.
Journalist and Drop Site contributor @AbubakerAbedW explained to @ryangrim last week that Israel has armed certain gangs in Gaza, enabling them to hijack aid shipments and resell the stolen supplies at exorbitant prices. These gangs, he reported, operate under the protection of Israeli quadcopters.
Abed emphasized that Israel has systematically targeted and killed civilian local security forces responsible for safeguarding aid. However, he noted, these officers “are not Hamas.” By eliminating them and enabling gangs to create chaos, Israel shifts blame for aid disruptions onto the resulting disorder. In reality, it is Israel’s actions that are directly undermining aid distribution efforts.
77% support expanding Social Security
75% support a cap on rent increases

18% approved Rahm Emanuel's job as Mayor
13% approved Dick Cheney's job as VP
Ruling Elite: Let's get Dick Cheney's endorsement & anoint Rahm Emanuel as DNC Chair.
1 word: No!
It’s clear at this point that the Netanyahu government’s response to the Biden Administration’s October 13 letter giving it 30 days to stop restricting aid delivery in Gaza has been to do the opposite.
U.S. law is also clear — security assistance to Israel must stop immediately.
