We’re very proud to be bringing @DonMeeChoi’s KOR-US TRILOGY to readers in the UK and Europe. Three startling collections that introduce us to a new poetic language, while looking straight at the brutality of colonialism and dictatorship.

We're told that food safety is mainly a matter of inspections and regulation. That's part of it, but no amount of monitoring can fix a system whose priority is to generate profit for shareholders. So why does the conversation rarely go there? Read more:

The U.S. is EIGHTY-NINE times larger than Cuba, with a population THIRTY-TWO times that of Cuba, and a military budget more than SEVEN THOUSAND times the size of Cuba's. It is waging genocide against the people of Cuba. Unspeakably evil.

Friends, Please use this tool to demand the release of Dr Hussam AbuSafiyeh who was kidnapped by Israelis and has been held in their dungeons without charge or trial, tortured and beaten daily without mercy.
Please take a moment to do this one thing today.

Venezuela’s relief effort is being distorted by familiar myths. Behind the rubble are public institutions, organised communities, and a country rebuilding under decades of US economic warfare. Our latest red alert separates evidence from propaganda.

-Killing sick babies by preventing their travel to get care
-Bombing families asleep in their tents
-Destroying water sources for a water-starved nation
-Torturing Dr. Abu Safiya for aiding children
Yawn. Just another day for the IOF.
Unforgivable. Unforgettable. The reckoning will come.

No imperialist or colonizer will ever see popular support of this magnitude — not even close. And that tells us a lot about where history is headed, and who is leading the transition.

A red card is a red card. How can a political phone call from Donald Trump to @FIFAcom result in the reversal of a referees decision? What kind of World Cup for Football is this anyway? Garbage!
· Iran's players denied decent treatment, and a fake call for offside.
· Terrible treatment of players from the Third World.

Please tweet to @fifamedia, @FlFAPresident, @FIFAcom, and others on the appalling World Cup on display.

"I am a communist human being."

Frida Kahlo's art was inseparable from her revolutionary commitments. Beyond a pop-culture icon, Kahlo was a lifelong militant dedicated to anti-imperialism, communism, and the liberation of the Global South.

Right now, Cuba is under a total blackout. After six months of a fuel blockade and just one shipment received, the electrical grid is under heavy strain. Trump’s siege on Cuba is real, relentless and claiming lives off the news cycle. The world has to end this genocidal war!

[Ghassan Abu Sitta, Chair of Conflict Medicine AUB @GhassanAbuSitt1]

The targeting of children is central to the genocidal project. They are the future that must be prevented.

당신이 보 못한 한국전쟁: 초토화폭격

"미군의 초토화폭격에는 대표적 비인도적 무기인 네이팜탄이 자주 사용됐다. 미군 통계보고서에 따르면 미 공군은 한국전쟁 3년여 동안 한반도에 32,000톤이 넘는 네이팜탄을 투하했다."

The United Nations has concluded that children themselves have become deliberate targets of Israeli military policy. Read my Globetrotter column,

"On the night of October 18th 2023, the IOF called my family’s house and told us we had five minutes to flee before they destroyed our home. That time was not enough to take anything with us." - Mariam Mushtaha on yearning for education, in @MassReview

The US has seized $5.49 billion of Venezuela’s oil revenue in 2026, then offers just $150 million in earthquake aid while the UN estimates $6.7 billion in losses. It’s not relief, it’s extortion. At the same time, US has $30 billion of frozen assets while people are under rubble.

We revisit how Chile’s battle for its own copper inspired the Global South—and why empire crushed it.

Do you have $5 to spare? Can you send just $5 to Gaza today? Please donate $5 now: https://t.co/jw67Ah9X72

On its own, $5 may not seem like much. But combined with thousands of others, it becomes something powerful.

The Sameer Project is working to complete a desalination plant that will produce hundreds of thousands of liters of new, clean drinking water every day. In addition to the water we already purchase to supply. Water that doesn't exist today. Water that children can drink. Water families can cook with, bathe with, clean with.

We are only $50,000 away from making this plant fully operational.

Imagine if everyone reading this gave just $5. We could finish construction and begin delivering life-saving water to communities that spend hours every day searching for a basic necessity. WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER.

Please donate, share this post, and help us turn compassion into clean water. The Rebuild Gaza Campaign link is here: https://t.co/jw67Ah9X72
