Just to really tie everything together, the person killed by police in Brooklyn today was Haitian -- it's not just vigilantes. The police are the fascists, and vice versa.
Please note that the NYPD wants to spend at least $225 million to train more city agencies in "public safety" which, to them, means committing a mass shooting over a fucking $3 fare. Also note that the head of public safety is being fucking investigated by the Feds for corruption
Remember and study Amilcar Cabral, born Sept. 12, Bissau-Guinean & Cape Verde, Revolutionary Leader, agricultural engineer, Pan-Africanist, intellectual, poet, theoretician, revolutionary-nationalist, and African Marxist. @BLM_edia
Sorry to university administrators but there is no policy you can write that will magically make your students as racist as you are and every time you try all you do is add moral clarity to the situation
Folks are so numbed to N.Y.P.D. corruption that sometimes reporting like this gets lost in the noise
But each one of the hundreds of cases the NYPD kills without review is someone’s lived experience - often traumatic - that moved them to file a complaint. https://t.co/D10cDsheJi
Not great that the points of convergence from both candidates in tonight’s debate seem to be: accelerating climate change, terrorizing migrants, and providing cover and arms for Israel’s genocide
New: On Thursday, student debtors over the age of 50— many of whom were born in the 1940s, 50's and 60's—will hold a vigil at the White House.
Borrowers will demand the Biden-Harris admin allow death to not be their only path to student loan relief.
The Attica Uprising is upon us, Sept 9-13. Inmates, Inspired by the assassination of George Jackson, united & seized the prison with/ long-standing demands to be treated as human beings. The State's response was to murder 43 people (33 inmates, 10 of their own).

Rep. Porter is correct here. MOHELA has been misleading and taking advantage of teachers, social workers and other public servants — all so they can pad their pockets at student debtors' expense.
The Biden administration should fire MOHELA.
"Biden could provide federal funding to out-of-state abortion travel like it does for military members, declaring a reproductive health emergency if necessary. Funding travel rather than procedure costs gets around the Hyde Amendment which Congress doesn’t have votes to repeal."
