“Women are leading the fight in the interests of all society. In the age of A.I. and robotic production, marginalized and dispossessed women are leading a growing movement of people who cannot live in this economic system. They are demanding the government provide the basic necessities of life. Poor People’s Campaigns are prioritizing the needs of humanity, the Earth, justice and ending racism. Empowering the marginalized as a force to reconstruct society means political education that moves us from moments of resistance to a movement for freedom from neglect, violence and economic insecurity.”
• Ethel Long-Scott, Women’s Economic Agenda Project, Oakland, CA

Epstein Files Reveal Horrible Abuses of Children and Unspeakable Depravity

The depravity of the wealthy and powerful revealed by the Epstein files shows that these people have no morals and they don't care about the rest of us. We have to demand that the full truth be exposed and that there is justice for the survivors.

ICE is Today’s Slave Patrols

As we celebrate Black History Month, we are again reminded that Black history is at the heart of US history. This is because it has shaped what happens in this country in so many ways, and continues to do so. A case in point is the parallels between the pre-Civil War slave patrols of the 19th century and the ICE/Border Patrol abductions of immigrants in the US today.
