Comrade Jamil Al‑Amin built Black power and defended his community, only to be stolen by the U.S. colonial government and forced to die behind enemy walls.

The revolution continues because their spirit...elder and revolutionary, cannot be caged. We honor him with relentless action. ✊🏾

Moments like this remind us, celebrity is not liberation. Representation is not freedom. And popularity does not equal political alignment. What matters is material conditions and which side you choose to stand on when the oppressed are catching hell.

A government built on genocide, slavery, and land theft, makes any constitution they created illegitimate. I have no moral obligation to comply.

Revolution is made in the way we live/organize together. Revolution is built in alternative/ oppositional systems we create and invest in. Revolution is protected in our confrontations with ‘the Man’ and our undoing our own contradictions.

What we’re fighting is not just corruption or bad leadership. It’s a system that was never designed for liberation. A system that can’t be fixed with a new president, because its foundation is domination of land, labor, and life itself.

Our work is to build beyond it.

The ingredients for freedom are simple: labor, action, and unity. The workers, the unemployed, the incarcerated, the unhoused, students, tenants and so on all contribute to the lifeblood of this system. To seize the beans of production is to take back what our hands already create.
