In solidarity with the Nationwide Summit to Stop Cop City happening from 2/23-26 in Tucson, AZ, WAWOG and WDS NYC have called for a weekend of solidarity actions in New York targeting Nationwide Insurance and AXA.
🚨 There are SIXTY-NINE Cop Cities being built or already built since 2020 across the US. These urban counter-insurgency training centers are called euphemisms like "public safety facility." The only states without plans for this type of project are ND, VT & WY. Interactive…
COVID advocacy groups are doing an incredible job on extremely limited resources pushing back on potential changes to the CDC's COVID isolation guidelines. But where are the labor unions? Forcing people back to work when they are sick is a critical labor issue.

i cannot overstate how easy it is to donate an ESim for gaza rn. theres at least 3 different apps u can choose from right now too. anything helps, but if you can get one with lots of GBs, absolutely do so. and this lovely person has a code for $3 off in the replies too!!

UPDATED (from 11/16/23) - Support Palestine with your money in Bed-Stuy! In solidarity with the BDS movement, we’ve compiled a list of restaurants in the neighborhood that profit from so-called Israeli food that have not spoken out against the genocide we are witnessing in Gaza.
The way there is no media coverage on the protest tells me everything I need to know.
It's been 83 days of genocide. Diaspora Palestinian's nerves and hearts are fried. True allies have compassion for this. Don't let the enemy divide and conquer.
It was never about Hamas. It was never about religion. It’s a land grab. It’s resources. It’s settler colonialism. It’s a Western presence in the Middle East. It’s opportunistic. It’s a tale as old as time.
There’s something phenomenally evil about a country that forces you to work under threat of starvation and homelessness, forces you to pay taxes under threat of prison, and then uses the taxes from your labour to fund a racist genocide
If you’ve wanted to contribute to access to eSims but were unsure how to do so, a group has come together and is facilitating donations: Crips for eSims for Gaza – Disability Visibility Project disabilityvisibilityproject.com/2023/12/25/cri…
we, the people, cannot let the two party system win the election next year. our conditions and the urgency of this moment demand alternative approaches and leadership. it’s time we organize vehemently and collectively to do away with the Democrat and Republican extremes.
We asked 10 people in Gaza to record moments of their day. What they sent us was inspiring and heartbreaking. The most mundane of tasks has become impossibly hard and the fear of being killed is constant and palpable. Watch our latest #AJCloseUp episode, 'One Day in Gaza' ⤵️
If you are not Palestinian, I *insist* you watch this entire report. DO NOT LOOK AWAY DO NOT LOOK AWAY
If you are not Palestinian, I *insist* you watch this entire report. DO NOT LOOK AWAY DO NOT LOOK AWAY
Join us today alongside dozens of organizations, continents, and comrades from across the city and across struggles as we take to the streets for Gaza, for our martyrs, for liberation and return within our lifetime by any means necessary.🇵🇸
Today! We’re proud to be one of the orgs endorsing today’s action. Mask up. Go with trusted comrades. Be safe & agitate 💕🇵🇸

There’s not a single resistance tactic which Palestinians haven’t already tried in over 100yrs of anti-colonial struggle. Violent nonviolent peaceful diplomatic symbolic you name it. You can’t expect Palestinians, who are deprived of basic rights, means & resources,
This is horrific. Doctors at Al-Shifa trusted the UN & the WHO to safely evacuate them and their patients and instead they allowed the IOF to assault and detain doctors and patients and now they won’t tell anyone where they are or what happened.
New York’s Adult Survivor Act is getting alot of attention because many high-profile people are being sued for sexual assault. BUT “more than half were prison-related claims against the state … with hundreds of additional filings naming NYC’s department of corrections.”

the sooner people stop likening disabled people to cops for expressing our boundaries and expectations for pandemic precautions that are fucking *life and death* for us, the better. COVID is a genocidal tool globally. calling for care is not cop behavior, quite the opposite.
Feminist theorists not writing or talking about this colonial reality are complicit. Feminism must be decolonial, or it's nothing at all.
“They interrogated us for 10 minutes, and after that, they went to a nearby room, and then [we heard sounds of] women and men being tortured.” Palestinians women, kidnapped from Gaza by Israeli forces, describe the abuse, neglect, and torture they were subjected to.

400,000 people in DC today. The largest Palestine protest in the history of the United States. This Despite the cold weather, the flight and metro cancellations, the supposed fatigue after 100 days of protest. The movement for Palestine will not go away until Palestine is free.
wearing a mask is living in love, not living in fear.
I’m being neither cynical nor defeatist when I say that honest conversations about disaster preparedness (related to infrastructure collapse from climate catastrophe, manufactured emergencies, military violence) need to be part of our organizing work. We need care, aid networks.
I always want to try to embody that Malcolm X quote: “I want to be remembered as someone who was sincere. Even if I made mistakes, they were made in sincerity. If I was wrong, I was wrong in sincerity.”
Psychiatry is a cultural belief system. It is ONE way of making sense of human experiences. It should never be situated as the dominant truth — as that which everything else around it or against it or different from it becomes an alternative.
palestine actionists in NYC have currently shut down ALL major connections to lower manhattan: the brooklyn bridge, the manhattan bridge, the williamsburg bridge AND the holland tunnel. No business as usual! Stop the genocide!
I write with enormous sadness to share that my friend and co-organizer Joker, after a week on life support, has transitioned from this world. For those who don’t know him, Joker is the friend with whom I started the pen pal network, what is now the Prison Solidarity Project.
