"Ask for work. If they don't give you work, ask for bread. If they do not give you work or bread, then take bread."

The businesses in Chicago shutting out ICE are proving the power a general strike can wield.

Identify the oppressors. Organize the workers whose labor they depend on. Withhold labor to end the oppression and build a better world for us all. #GeneralStrike

The oligarchs power and privilege come from their money, and their money comes from our work. When we withhold our work the oligarchs lose everything.

Something to do on 8/1 besides going to work.
July 27, 2025 at 12:53 AM
We are doing a one day sick-out-strike to protest ICE on 8/1. We are building the mutual aid networks we'll need for the eventual open ended general strike.

Call in sick on 8/1 to protest ICE. Pass it on.

PROTECT DURHAM FROM ICE! Thursday July 24 at 7:30am in front of the Durham County Courthouse at 510 S Dillard St, Durham, NC. Today, Wednesday 7/23/25, plain-clothes ICE agents tried to snatch someone from the Durham Courthouse. Organizers believe ICE may come again tomorrow.

#GeneralStrike Raleigh folk who are looking for something to do on Saturday afternoon, may we suggest:
July 23, 2025 at 8:24 PM
Heads up Durham

We're getting things started in the Carolinas. This is a one day event, but there are more to come.
July 15, 2025 at 2:38 AM
Ok, lets talk about this. Does participating in the sick-out hurt participants? Companies? ICE?

1/4

We expect retaliation, probably not on 8/2 (Sat.) or 8/4 (Mon.) but eventually. The bosses power is their money. Our power is out solidarity.

So workers ask your selves this: "When my boss retaliates against my coworker for organizing, how will we show the boss that was a terrible mistake?"
July 11, 2025 at 10:39 AM
Yeah, my bad.
July 11, 2025 at 3:22 AM
Sick of ICE? Call out sick on August 1st.
July 10, 2025 at 4:59 PM
One day beta test 8/1.
July 10, 2025 at 4:50 PM
ILM Action Network and @yorkcorising.com have added their voices to the call for a #GeneralStrike! If you're sick of ICE then call in sick on August 1st.
July 10, 2025 at 4:39 AM
We know.

We also know that a general strike isn't something that happens over night, its something we have to do a lot of work to prep for so that when it happens it will succeed. We're not half assing this, we're building. This is one step in an escalation plan.

By our powers combined!

We are proud to be collaborating with both the NC and SC 50501 teams to bring economic pressure to bear against the oligarchy.

Make sure to keep up with @50501nc.bsky.social and @50501-sc.bsky.social on this platform.
