  • U.S. out of Africa: Voices from the Struggle

    Is the West losing their grip on Africa? Africans around the world are rising against neocolonialism and asserting their right to sovereignty and self-determination.

  • Yes, There is an Israel Lobby, as any Decent Journalist Knows

    Is the idea of a “highly organized Israel lobby” antisemitic? An apartheid-promoting Globe and Mail columnist claims as much. In attacking the Canadian Union of Public Employees for standing in solidarity with Palestinians Robyn Urback tweeted, “Points for alleging a Jewish conspiracy, but if CUPE really wanted to go full antisemitic trope, they should have mentioned […]

  • Chiquita Ain’t Got Nutin on Us!

    The $64,000 question, especially for all you baby boomers out there, is when exactly did we become a Banana Republic?

    The US Left Must Unwaveringly Stand for Palestinian Freedom

    The US “socialist” left currently playing the bothsides-ism game with Israeli genocide of Palestinians in the name of some bullshit notion of ‘nuance,’ must remember the words of Howard Zinn: “You can’t be neutral on a moving train.” Nothing is accomplished with an abstract support of Palestine when it’s convenient. It is when the empire’s […]

  • Cornel West Runs for President: You Can’t Be a Spoiler if the System Is Already Rotten

    Under the less than inspiring implicit slogan of “You’re Stuck with Biden,” the Democratic Party has foregone presidential primary debates this election season. Not even bothering with the pretense of democratic people’s choice, naked bourgeois rule is offered to their captured constituencies. Joe Biden’s approval rating has sunk to a dismal 40.5%. USA Today asks: […]

The mines attracted thousands of workers from Eastern and Southern Europe, including […]
