Fuck yeah, that’s my hometown!
Holy shit…You can’t make this up: a plane is circling Soldier Field before the Bears home opener with a banner that reads—
“HEY ICE, MASKS ARE FOR CUCKS.”
Also the trolling is incredible for those that told us to stop wearing masks during the pandemic.

Last weekend, I retraced the steps of two of the most important moments in American (and Chicago) labor history, starting with the Haymarket Massacre.
But the Haymarket Massacre wasn’t just a tragedy. It still provides a compass for us to fight against fascism today:

Look at this graph.
The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened.
This is why we must build back union power.

As I just said on CNN, my father's parents were Nakba survivors. I don't want Israeli children to live in fear and I don't want Palestinian children to starve to death. There is nothing anyone could do to make me put nationalistic talking points above basic human rights.

Same here! Higher education isn’t just the elites, and our communities don’t mimic those in elite spaces.
