It is illegal for landlords to do this. And it's evil. And it shows why housing should not be a for-profit industry.

Around this time every year, I share a list of ways to support Native people. From supporting Indigenous people seeking abortion care to defending Native voting rights and keeping Native families together, here are some causes worth supporting. 🧡

Anyone who thinks this attack on higher ed is going to stop with the humanities or courses on race and gender has another thing coming - Florida is already targeting classes on β€œLabor and Globalization” and β€œIntroduction to East Asia” for removal from the curriculum

We need your support!

Our task is more important than ever. As we expand our operations with Emergency Response Teams, training, and gaining members with higher levels of training, we need more and more expensive medical supplies. Please consider donating to our Open Collective.

Phoenix IWW - Organizing Intake Form Use this form to engage the Organizing Committee of the Phoenix IWW for assistance in organizing your workplace.

November 5th wasn't what any of us wanted. At the end of the day, our low pay, awful managers, and sub-par benefits will continue, until the working class organizes.

Want to fight the good fight? Organize your workplace today.

Towards a Revolutionary Union Movement, Part 9: Antifascist Fascism represents an all out war against the proletariat. Revolutionary unionists must unite with antifascist struggles of all types if we hope to outlast the repression we will inevitably face.

With how the US election just went, those of you who follow us here on Bluesky might appreciate what we had to say on the role revolutionary unions have to play in antifascist struggle:

Reminder: Sure, the student protestors turned out to be right about Vietnam, and gay rights, and apartheid, and the Latin American dirty wars, and the invasion of Iraq -- but *this time* they are cluelessly naive and only protesting to look cool to their friends.
