Sorry (if this seemed to suggest otherwise), yes he is. I think he still needs our support as he struggles with health stuff. Lila is in contact. Exciting developments with SA and Nowhere Flower happening!

Charlottesville, Revisitedβ€”2017 to 2024 Seven years ago, anarchists and other anti-fascists converged in Charlottesville, Virginia to oppose the β€œUnite the Right” rally. A retrospective.

On August 12, 2017, Nazis and klansmen rallied in Charlottesville in support of Donald Trump and fascism. One of them murdered Heather Heyer.

What distinguishes that killing from the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti?

Only this: in 2026, fascists can murder on government payroll.

Abolish ICE.

Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA

Alex Pretti from his early days working at the VA

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

Just saw on KARE 11 that this boy was sent to a detainment facility in Texas and that his family didn't know his whereabouts for almost 24 hours.

#OtD 18 Jan 1958 the Battle of Hayes Pond took place in NC when Native Americans routed a KKK rally. 500 Lumbee armed with shotguns and clubs attacked the white supremacist protest forcing them to flee, and celebrated by burning KKK banners and robes stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8979...

Palestine Solidarity in the Age of Reaction - Steve Salaita Should people involved with the Palestine solidarity movement in North America, traditionally leftist in orientation, seek alliances with the political right?

Here's a long essay analyzing the recent emergence of rightwing critics of Israel. I argue that it is a bad idea for the Palestine solidarity movement in North America to seek any kind of alliance with those critics or to validate the ideologies they represent.

US imperialism is the greatest threat to peace and security in our world today and it's not even close.

Two months on, ceasefire feels like siege For most families, β€œreturning home” means pitching tents beside the ruins of their houses.

Israel dictates the pace of Gaza’s decay. This is not a failure of the ceasefire-that-is-not-a-ceasefire. It is its essence.

Good morning! I’m currently at Beaverton High School in OR where a mass student walk out has just started to demand a proactive ICE protocol for their school and district.

Students say that similar walkouts were planned at multiple other high schools, including Aloha, Sunset, Southridge & more.
