Yes. Weird. Judging by the comments I read on the articles they publish, this is exactly true.
To fill the growing vacuum of history education in the U.S., racial justice organizers are offering truth-based curricula. Read my reporting: newsletter.mariannedhenin.com/educators-fi....
Afro-peans celebrate their existence this month. Love to learn more about planned events around the EU.
A few days late, I got my copy of Autonomedia's latest Calendar of Jubilee Saints, which has been going for ~25 years now. (Spooky to see that Peter Lamborn Wilson/Hakim Bey, one of the calendar's creators, is now a saint.) Among other things this is one of the greatest resources on radical history.
Must say, "X" is fully alive with anarchist info and analysis of 47's covert moves. E.g., @CovertActionMag and @thegrayzonenews.bsky.social (is that a mirror? No, it's cute stuff; the meat is on "X".)? "Leavers" from that platform are missing a lot...
And Oh yea, fuck Musk anyhow.
This assumes an international world order and a rule of laws and treaties. It is far more likely that EU countries of NATO will simply ignore the treaty, and sit on their collective hands. Doncha think? See what's been happening? Of course they will.... er, they won't.

“The America we’ll live in a generation from now rests with our teachers, and they are being forced to square up with one hand tied behind their backs.”
Okay, here you are cross-posting! (Can't see anyone anymore on Zuck's FB; maybe soon on his other platforms, too? We'll see... contemplating drastic action!)
Another printing of the Public Collectors booklet Who Shares the Restroom Code with ICE Agents? will be available early next week. I’m too angry for this to remain out of print.

Remembering the anti-nuclear mural John Fekner and John "Crash" Matos collaborated on around the corner from ABC No Rio in 1981. It was on an abandoned building. Within weeks the City knocked it down. (Photo: Lisa Kahane)
