Happy birthday, Wilma Pearl Mankiller, November 18, 1945 – April 6, 2010) was a Cherokee activist, social worker, community developer and the first woman elected to serve as Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation & led the Alcatraz occupation. Born in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, she lived on her family's allotment in Adair County, Oklahoma, until she was 11, when her family relocated to San Francisco as part of a federal government program to urbanize Native Americans. Inspired by the civil rights movements of the 1960s, Mankiller took part in the Occupation of Alcatraz and the land and compensation struggles with the Pit River Tribe. In the 1970s, she was employed as a social worker, focusing mainly on children's issues.

U.S.-funded land theft & racist war in #Palestine currently & Trump's starting a Venezuela war to steal oil, are DIRECTLY related to the same land theft, racist war & anti-working class violence the #USA does historically A.) Nov 15, 1827 Creek Muscogee indigenous people are targeted by white supremacists & driven out from THEIR historic, indigenous land (what's now the U.S. state of #Georgia) by violent extremists! Much like the $14 billion, U.S.-funded genocide in Palestine, currently, #Muscogee were forced out & currently reside in what's now Oklahoma. #landback never forget #indigenouspeople's history month B.) a year beore, Nov 15, 1826, U.S. capitalists ethnically cleansed Muscogee from their homelands, Indonesians already invaded & colonized by capitalists from Britian & what's collective called "the Netherlands". For 3 CENTURIES (1600's to 1943), European #narcoterrorists, aka, Imperialists, profited by exporting opium addicition globally, especially in the Asian region now called Indonesia. What the Purdue Pharma & Sackler family are today, the Dutch East India Company was today's equivalent of opioid / oxycodone narco-terrorists, funded by European capitalists. Indonesians were colonized by these imperialists until 1943, then Japanese colonizers until 1945, until Indonesians expelled them & waged a VICTORIOUS 4 year war of independence. Indonesian workers established Achmed Sukarno as their president with the help of communists & nationalists. In 1957 Indonesians nationalized their oil industry. U.S. imperialists then waged a colonial war & IMPOSED political terrorists on Indonesians -namely, Nasution and Suharto. #US funded & trained anti-working class death squads to murder 1.5 million Indonesians. Sound familiar?!? It should, it's been U.S. capitalists' policy internally & globally for 2 centuries!

today in ending US capitalist terrorism: Oct. 6, 1976, anti-working class thugs blow up commercial flight Cubana de Aviación 455 with 2 bombs onboard, killing everyone. Funded by U.S. domestic terrorists.

abolish #ICE & defund anti-Palestinian genocide NOW
www.afrocubaweb.com/posada.htm#N...
Posada hired Hernán Ricardo and Freddy Lugo to plant the bombs on the plane. Rafael De Jesus Gutierrez, a CIA spy, was formerly employed as a spy for Cuban dictator, Batista before the successful Cuban People's Revolution kicked 5hem to the curb. The CIA knew 4 months ahead of their bombing & encouraged this terrorism by anti-Cuban terrorist groups inside the USA & globally. Bosch went on to incriminate himself in his own book, "Caminos del Guerrero (Ways of the [anti-working class] Warrior)" Posada was trained by the #CIA at their Fort Benning torture training center, the School of the Americas (1964 to 1967). He used that knowledge (& protection of the US government) to bomb & kill civilians in Cuban hotels & nightclubs. Posada supplied the anti-working class death squads known as the "Contras" in El Salvador with weapons, he was working as a US agent during the USA's Iran-Contra war crimes. The FBI believes Posada carried out 41 bombings & even the US Justice Department urged the President to keep Posada in prison as an admitted terrorist, but the capitalists turned him loose on the US population. These #CIA protected terrorists bombed the plane & yet were AQUITTED by a capitalist judge. Bosch, a CIA agent, died a free man in Miami in 2011. In 2018, Luis Clemente Posada Carriles, also a CIA agent & organizer of his failed Bay of Pigs Invasion, also died free in the USA. Posada Carriles founded the terrorist group, "Coordination of United Revolutionary Organizations, (CORU en Espanol). The US president welcomed to the USA & harbored these terrorists bombers, Luis Posada Carriles & Orlando Bosch. Bosch infamously boasted, "everyone on that plane DESERVED to die!"
