    My father (Marines) and his father (Army) come to mind on Veterans Day. More specifically, how poverty and the draft have driven Black and Latinx men over generations to serve a country that has never served them.

    I analyzed Biden's Pentagon transition team and found that one third of its members work for think tanks, organizations, or companies that either directly receive money from the weapons industry—or are part of the arms industry themselves.

    We are still on alert for a stolen election. The news of Trump stacking the DoD with loyalists is a high alert. Other ways dictators keep power is by creating and declaring states of emergencies through warfare.

    The Obama years taught us it's vital to issue bold, left demands from the outset--to not give an inch to forces of war & capitalism that mobilized hard during the Obama admin and are mobilizing swiftly now. We don't owe anyone a honeymoon or breathing space--we need to save lives

    Donald Trump is not going to be the next Commander in Chief of the military. However, war is a bipartisan effort in the United States. Join us in resisting war at home and abroad:

    We love how Kenyan cartoonist Gathara flips the script and reports on . A thread:

    Polls are set to open in 48 hours across the US as the authoritarian regime of Donald Trump attempts to consolidate its hold over the troubled, oil-rich, nuclear-armed, north American nation. Analysts are sceptical the election will end months of political violence.

    Developing story out of Philly. A group of people with guns drove from VA to Philly to shoot up people/ area counting ballots. I bet they were white. They were arrested, not killed, by the cops.

    NYPD’s violent response to peaceful protestors is extremely disturbing. It reflects the same egregious police brutality inflicted on residents lawfully protesting the needless death of countless Black and brown victims of police violence this summer.

    NYPD was trying to clear the street to make an arrest. Aggressively. Officers then appeared to begin setting up for mass arrests— we intervened to try and de-escalate and prevent that. Most importantly, there seems to be a lack of leadership when the City needs it the most.

    What is certain is that progressive movements for a more just country will shape politics long after the elections are done. Thanks to all the Black and brown organizers out there building a new world with freedom, safety, and dignity for all. 💕
