DRIVERS IN TENNESSEE ANNOUNCE THE TENNESSEE DRIVERS UNION. THEY ARE ON STRIKE AT THE RIDESHARE LOT. LABOR DAY WEEKEND STRIKE IS A SUCCESS — LOOK AT ALL THESE TOURISTS REALIZING WHOSE LABOR THEY DEPEND ON
NEW: Ontario Federation of Labour president Laura Walton in a new letter to University of Toronto president Meric Gertler: "If, you decide to move against the students, you'll have to go through the workers first."
Enjoying the latest volume of Malatesta’s collected works - in this piece he succinctly dismantles the ridiculous thinking underlying the ‘inside outside’ strategy of using direct action to elect and then support a socialist party in power:
Continuing to collect the worst opinion essays of the year. Friedman’s rumination on how the US is “an old lion,” the Middle East is a “jungle,” Iran is a “parasitoid wasp,” and Hamas is a “trap-door spider,” etc., is one of the ugliest things I’ve seen in print
Wonderful scenes of the food delivery workers strike coming in from all over London. Workers have had enough and all communities are coming together to demand an end to the poverty pay and exploitative conditions
I am here again asking you to donate to @prismreports. It's Giving Tuesday! Our tiny but mighty newsroom has shifted entirely overnight to uplift Palestinian voices, report on Israel's genocide of Palestinians, & center movements calling for a ceasefire and end to the occupation.
@zeynep@ChristosArgyrop Having spent the past few years denying Severity, Airborne Transmission, and Reinfection - you are in no position to lecture anyone about 'causing harm'.
The wonder is that you have the arrogance to even comment at all.
University admins’ repression of pro-Palestine protesters reveals the colonial violence that’s been at Education’s core since it emerged 500 years ago.
From eliminating “uneducated natives” to repressing “uncivil” students, Education has been infrastructural for colonialism.
In April 2023, Pres. Biden ended the pandemic state of emergency and claimed COVID was over. Since then, the frequent surges in COVID cases, hospitalizations, and deaths prove that COVID is still a problem (1/6)
The @iww "little Red songbook" has inspired union drives and picket lines for well over a century.
The book was partially inspired by the revolutionary songs sung by Cobalt miners.
They fought for a better world.
I write about this in my book Cobalt:Cradle of the Demon Metals
Protesters shut down the Durham freeway today in solidarity with Palestine.
Jews say ceasefire now!
End the genocide! Not in our name!
Stop the gears of the Israeli/American war machine!
#ShutItDown#CeasefireNOW
BREAKING: Jews in Durham, North Carolina have shut down the highway to call for a #CeasefireNOW.
No food. No water. The hospitals are full, and the bombs keep dropping.
What's happening to the people of Gaza cannot be allowed to continue.
@JoeBiden, you have to stop the bombs.
Half way through Addiction Awareness Week and all the addiction charities and campaigners are busy churning out content to ‘raise awareness’ or ‘reduce stigma’ but not a single one has mentioned any links between addiction and poverty
#AAW2023#AddictionAwarenessWeek
We hope everyone has been able to (safely) get out today to raise their voices in defence of Palestinian lives.
If your financial situation allows it, consider a donation to help protect the work - and lives - of journalists in Palestine:

We live in a time of rising fascism, revolution-provoking levels of inequality & corruption, climate collapse & genocide backed by western democracies.
