I am delighted to finally see this volume that I, @lucaspoy.bsky.social , and fourteen other authors have been working on for a few years (without any external funding, it should be added), as a printed book. This is likely the first international anthology on the history of tenant organising.

Zohran is stone cold man. Putting out an ad in Arabic after all the Islamophobic shit that’s been thrown his way? Pure swag.

Dems don’t need to copy his politics or even necessarily his campaign strategy, they need to learn how to grow a fucking spine.

The Israeli military killed 46 Palestinian children overnight.

That's 10 more than the total number of Israeli children killed on 7th October.

Yet there was more outrage over the fictional beheadings of Israeli babies than these 46 kids.

That's easy: because there's no outrage

My comment? I'm proud of Green councillors who are doing everything they can to bring attention to stopping the genocide.

It wasn't anti-white to support boycotting South African teams under apartheid.

It's not Russophobia to support boycotting Russian teams after the invasion of Ukraine.

And it's not antisemitism to support boycotting Israeli teams after a genocide.
