Amazing news from University Of York. Big UK win! Demanding BDS works. Well done everyone involved🇵🇸

ICYMI: John Narayan, 'Huey P. Newton’s Intercommunalism: An Unacknowledged Theory of Empire' - centers on leader of the Black Panther Party, Huey P. Newton's critique of what he called ‘reactionary intercommunalism’. journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

The young people (and the world) know this is America's genocide.

And everyone can see that is why empire is showing its teeth.

Keep going keep going. Liberation in our lifetimes.

PIAZZA OCCUPIED. As the University of Warwick continues to reject our demands to cut ties with genocide, we rise up in unison with fellow students all over the world, from Columbia, NYC, to Paris, to Sydney. We say no business as usual as long as Warwick sponsors colonial genocide!

BREAKING: Students at the University of Warwick have established an encampment in solidarity with Gaza.

The students are calling on University of Warwick to divest from companies complicit in Israeli violations of international law.

Since November our branch has repeatedly raised these demands on King's management. On #MayDay we'll walk out with our students once again to demand an end to institutional complicity & the repression of pro-Palestinian voices on campus, and an end to the genocide. #FreePalestine

This #MayDay King's university & health workers and students will respond to the call of the Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions-Gaza & walk out in solidarity with Palestine and for the future of HE, with rallies at Guy's & Denmark Hill. Workers unite for Palestine! ✊🏽

Big Announcement 📢

I'm very excited to announce that Pluto Books will be publishing my new book 'A World Without Racism' in July of this year!

I go to sleep and wake up haunted by mass graves, zip-tied corpses, limbless children. And try not to think of those still alive, or how they will survive another night or day.

Whatever you can do, in the streets or in your workplace, keep going keep going. Every empire falls.

In 2023, “World military expenditure rose to an all-time high of $2443 billion”. Yet,that same World can't “afford” to cancel the $2.6 trillion foreign debt stock of 130+ Low and Middle Income Countries (China, Russia and India excluded)...😭😭😭😭

🧵Today is Stephen Lawrence Day and marks the 31st anniversary of Stephen’s death at the hands of racist murderers.

Rest in power Stephen. My thoughts are with his loved ones still carrying the weight of unimaginable pain.

M. Burawoy on the @asanews resolution: 'sociologists...have real material interests in the domination that feeds them. In the Israeli case sociologists, often indistinguishable from anthropologists...have become accomplices of the Israeli state. But more to the point...' 1/3

During the ‘77 Ladywood by-election in Birmingham, Reed Herbert got decked by the legend Raghib Ahsan, a Pakistani shop steward at Rover Solihull standing as Socialist Unity candidate (and one of the sweetest, most thoughtful guys you’ll meet)

There were a group of scholars, some of whom identified as Third World Marxists and dependistas or dependency scholars in the 1950s, 60s & 70s, who wrote about and published work, making this very point. I wish we took them more seriously or stopped pretending they didn't exist.
