July 01, 2024 A brief response to the lies about Nyah Mway
Nyah Mway a 13 year old boy was walking home at 10:20pm on June 29th, 2024- he was stopped by Utica police for allegedly fitting a description. Not 22 seconds (!!!) after being stopped by police, Nyah was dead. He will never see high school, or 14. He won’t see graduation, or college, or his first “real job”- Nyah is dead because he was murdered by the Police in Utica New York, because that’s what the police do! In this discussion we go through some of the lies that the New York Times, Huffington Post, Utica Phoenix, and other media sources, including the Democratic Party, Citizen Action, and other Non-Profits and NGOs who offer the people NO REAL SOLUTIONS!

Peace everyone, wishing you all well! I wanted to take a moment to read some poetry from our friend and Comrade sister, Mother, Julia Wright- daughter of Richard Wright, friend of Kwame and Kuma, and freedom fighters all over the globe! So I drawn to speak a bit about something some comrades of mine - and shout out to them, you know who you are - have been bringing up quite often, and that is grief, trauma, and how to reconcile these things with revolution and resistance. Hopefully some of the things I say are worthy of your listening, take care all! All power to the people of Palestine!

April 29, 2024 The Lines Have Been Drawn
We are a part of an international struggle against imperialism, colonialism, capitalism and exploitation. The resistance in Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, and elsewhere has proven that this system can only be defeated by direct confrontation between forces towards the objective of completely eliminating all forms and all systems of oppression.

With the expansion of student lead university encampments, resistance operations, mass demonstrations worldwide, deterioration of the imperialist system, in-fighting, policing and terror tactics by the state and fascism on the rise, it is time to ask ourselves seriously: Is liberalism or social democracy, peace-activism, single issue fights, reaction and weekend organizing enough to stop them?
