How do we build a mass movement that isn’t just symbolic protest but concretely defends and expands democracy to fully meet the needs of the multiracial working class and shift the conditions that led us here? ask Julia and Chris of @surj.org.

I’m putting a totally rough estimate of 2,000 people who attended the peaceful and positive #NoKings protest in Hendersonville, NC, today — a city of 15,000 in a red county. 😍 (Drone shot - photo credit to John Owens)

“Which side are you on?” I’m on the side of the couple of thousand folks who showed up for the #NoKings march and rally in little Hendersonville, North Carolina. 🇺🇸

Every time you see a news headline that says "Police clash with protesters," what they meant to say was, "Militarized police use taxpayer-funded deadly weapons to attack people who are just trying to help their neighbors and stand up for the Constitution."

David Graeber said this in 2012 about protests in New York City.

Though this is increasingly what is happening this week in Los Angeles.

Reports and video show flash-bangs thrown into piles of debris just before a car caught fire, strongly suggesting it was law enforcement, not protesters, who sparked it. More details are coming. Don’t let them control the narrative. Thank you to everyone sharing footage, always record everything.

Those concerned about violence might want to start with violence against immigrants, by ICE here, by illegal deportations to gulags and third countries, the violence against so many federal departments, against the law, the climate, the public lands, waters, civil rights, reproductive rights...

Every time you see a news story saying "police clashed with protesters," remember that it's bullshit framing and that militarized police are always the aggressors.

If you want elected Democrats to "fight" you best understand that it will be *Black* Democrats on those front lines. And so you best have their backs when they're unconstitutionally asked to suffer the consequences.

The charges against McIver are a form of political intimidation—one directed with particular force against Black politicians—but that intimidation will only work if the people don’t have McIver’s back...
