So, when young Black and Brown kids do this, it’s a crime against humanity. But when corporations do it, it’s all good.

BREAKING: Texas State Fires Professor over Palestine Speech

Philosopher Idris Robinson is being fired for having principles.
He gave a talk on Palestinian resistance.
He would not condemn it.
Over a year later, TXST terminates his tenure-track contract. But he's fighting back.🧵

🚨After 29 hours, our electrical system is fully operational again. In Latin America, it can take weeks to restore national electrical grids.

The fact that Cuban electrical workers accomplished this in such short time is a testament to the tenacity, and ingenuity of our people.

BREAKING: Indigenous activist Leonard Peltier is released from prison after nearly 50 years.

For decades, Peltier, who is 80 years old, has maintained his innocence over the 1975 killing of two FBI agents in a shootout on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota.

Last month President Joseph Biden commuted Peltier's life sentence to serve the remainder of his time under house arrest.

KWAME TURE ON AFRICAN WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP IN STRUGGLE

In this clip, All-African People’s Revolutionary Party (@aaprp on X) co-founder Kwame Ture (1941-98) reminds us that African women have consistently stood on the frontlines of resistance and leadership, both on the continent and in the diaspora.

For instance, Queen Amanirenas of Kush resisted Roman expansion by fighting Julius Caesar's army in 30 BC. Much later, in the 17th century, Angola’s Queen Nzinga Mbande (1583-1663) waged a war against Portuguese settler colonialists. In Ghana, Yaa Asantewaa (circa 1840-1921) led the resistance against the British. Meanwhile, the Dahomey Amazons, an all-female regiment in Benin, fiercely defended their kingdom.

By the same token, modern women have also questioned and stood up to oppressive powers. In the United States, for example, 77-year-old Black Liberation Army member Assata Shakur and civil rights activist Rosa Parks (1913-2005) played immeasurable roles in fighting for the rights of Black people against white supremacy. Meanwhile, 75-year-old Malawian human rights activist Joyce Banda and Kenyan environmentalist Wangari Maathai (1940-2011) shattered gender barriers, empowering many communities.

Throughout history, African women have indeed been at the forefront of our people’s fight for liberation, as Ture said, whether on the continent or beyond. Their continued contributions to the struggle must be recognised and valued.

As the new year begins, this week's Wednesday wisdom from Pan-African thinker, revolutionary and All-African People's Revolutionary Party (@aaprp on X) co-founder Kwame Ture (1941-98), offers a timely reminder that 'liberation' is the word of our people, not 'peace,' as injustice can exist, even with the absence of chaos.

Claudia Jones was a revolutionary feminist, communist, internationalist, and radical thinker whose legacy continues to influence the fight for global African liberation. Jones championed African women and made no secret of her lifelong mantra: no peace can be obtained if any women, especially those who are oppressed and impoverished, are left out of the conversation. Jones spent the rest of her life fighting against capitalism, corruption, and theorizing the triple oppression faced by working class colonized women
