Los Angeles residents were outraged after dozens of federal agents marched through MacArthur Park, in one of the city’s most immigrant-heavy neighborhoods. Homeland Security officials said it was an immigration enforcement operation, though it was unclear if anyone had been arrested. trib.al/JYW5IsU

I hope Mamdani does become Mayor for real 🙏
Mamdani becoming mayor of New York would be the unexpected prequel to “Born in flames”, the “utopian/dystopian docufiction drama film directed, produced and co-written by radical intersectional feminist Lizzie Borden” in 1983. mubi.com/en/de/films/...

My Dad died today after a very quick battle with colon cancer. He was surrounded by family and went peacefully in his sleep.

Brilliant vocal... brilliant lyrics!
At a new life we took aim
We set the vast conglomerates aflame
The working class avowed its name
Of America’s mysteries none remain
We broke the hidden tyrannies
Of the reptilian joint-stock companies...
We are born in flames!

Hi @tomhall.bsky.social, thank you for watching BORN IN FLAMES. I hoped the film wouldn't be relevant today but it's more important than ever to cross race and class lines to, as you incisively write, to "collectiviz(e) the process, locally and inclusively, to help us begin the fight immediately! ✊"
New post up at The Back Row Manifesto, #5 in my series NO AUTHORITY, discussing lessons from anti-fascist cinema. Today's post is on Lizzie Borden's revolutionary BORN IN FLAMES and the power of the collective voice. Give a read at the link below. Thanks!

In this week's Directed By Women Viewing Guide I am recommending a pair of new restorations from a trailblazing Lebanese filmmaker, one of my fave films from last year that is now on streaming, three more streaming gems, an Oscar-winning short film & the films of a husband-and-wife documentary team.
I'm not going to change.

Women don’t wait for change, we make it. We’ve broken barriers, made history, and fought for justice every step of the way. Today, we honor the women who came before us and keep pushing for those who will come after. The fight isn’t over. Let’s get to work.

The embarrassing point is this what came to mind first over… idk Escape from NY or Born in Flames (I can’t even find born in flames anywhere), Spartacus (which is well worth revisiting), or even V for Vendetta
