Make no mistake: this system of exploitation and injustice cannot be reformed out of existence. We want better lives—so we fight for exactly that. Every step of the way we try to win everything that can be won, raise the level of struggle, and organize our collective movement. But we are also doing something else: we are building an organization of revolutionaries to bring this monster down. The capitalists give with an eye dropper and take with an earth mover. We cannot reform our way to a better way of life. We need to take the sledgehammer of revolution to the chains of oppression.

“There’s real fears in some Jewish homes tonight"?
Really, @VanJones68? One of the most disgusting statements anyone has ever made in this race.
But why would we expect anything different from this zionist cheerleader 4 racist, apartheid, settler-colonialist Israel. @NAARPR
“20 years ago I entered Central Indiana Teen Challenge. I was 15 years old. I needed help, instead I was left with trauma that has taken over a decade to begin healing,” said Mandi MacDonald, a survivor of the academy. “I want you to understand something. When I entered Teen Challenge I wasn’t allowed to say goodbye to anyone. I was taken from my classroom in handcuffs, and on the way to the program I attempted suicide,” said MacDonald. https://t.co/eXHzxZYYH9
"Trump’s Department of Justice has come after them, trying to drive them from office and to stop their efforts against racism and their support of the democratic demands of the Black community."

We call on allies in the immigrants’ rights movement to stand in solidarity with Haitian and Syrian immigrants to hit the streets, no deportations and defend TPS against Trump's racist attacks.

“How many more lives need to be ripped away from their loved ones? How many more police killings before we organize for justice, before we organize to jail all killer cops, before we demand community control over the pigs, before we fight for Chicano self-determination, before we fight for self-determination for the Black Belt South? Justice for Corey Ruiz.” https://t.co/F9n7msJkse

On this day in 1895, Friedrich Engels died. More than just a friend and partner to Karl Marx, Engels himself was a key contributor to the development of Scientific Socialism.
So what were some of his most important insights? 🧵
🚨 Earlier this morning, police moved in to forcibly sweep and clear out the memorial to Corey Ruiz in Madison, WI, arresting 10 people and pepper spraying others.
We must keep fighting for justice for Corey Ruiz and community control of the police!
Stop the deportation machine and Trump’s attack on Haitians!
Statement from the FRSO: https://t.co/tF4j9sT760
The Trump administration has made the cruel choice to terminate Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians. This puts nearly 350,000 people in the crosshairs of the mass deportation machine. Given ICE’s track record, we need to take them at their word and take this as a serious threat.
It’s a campaign of intimidation, and the administration is playing with people’s lives. The decision is pulling the rug out from under families who have been living in the US for years—they have children, livelihoods, and community ties—they’re not going anywhere, nor should they. In Ohio, families are already getting letters telling them to “deport yourself, or else” and being degraded and treated like criminals. The real criminals are in the White House. They want to use panic and harassment to drive people out of their homes.
The Trump administration also wants our movement to stay silent about it. We call on everyone who can see this is wrong to drag these attacks into the light. We need protests and we need to be in the streets. It’s time to stand up and say no to Trump’s deportation machine.
Stop the mass deportation of Haitians!
Legalization not deportation!
HANDS OFF HAITIAN IMMIGRANTS! The Trump administration is making moves to round up and deport over 350,000 Haitian immigrants, whose Temporary Protected Status (TPS) was just revoked by the U.S. Supreme Court. In Springfield, Ohio, thousands of Haitians are now being summoned to appear at ICE offices to be shackled with ankle monitors, or in some cases be deported immediately. In other cities, similar notices are expected to go out soon.
Haitian immigrants are not just our neighbors, loved ones, and community members, but also make up a significant part of the U.S. working class, especially in industries like healthcare.
We need to go all out in mobilizing against these racist, anti-immigrant attacks - wherever Trump threatens mass deportations, we need to unite all who can be united to fight back and confront ICE & DHS terror in the streets.
We are proud to announce the release of our groundbreaking report titled “A Predatory State: Israel's Systemic Sexualized and Gendered Violence Against Palestinians” in partnership with @ProgIntl.
