Gaza Freedom Flotilla has released statement that Black labour leader Chris Smalls (Amazon Labour Union) faced violence that no one else on Handala did. He has been severely beaten in Israeli custody.
Smalls follows in legacy of Black radical tradition for Palestine. Labour must stand for Smalls.

Deeply saddened to hear of the passing of author, poet, and anti-capitalist theorist Joshua Clover. We were lucky enough to speak with Clover in 2017 on our podcast. May his work continue to be an inspiration. itsgoingdown.org/make-world-s...

Excerpt of Mahmoud Khalil's new op-ed
Mahmoud Khalil's new op-ed from detention—
"Faced with a movement for divestment they couldn't crush, your trustees opted to set fire to the institution they're entrusted with…History will redeem us, while those who were content to wait on the sidelines will be forever remembered for their silence."
if you're using AI for "homage" images to Miyazaki and Ghibli, you've completely disavowed the spirit and thought in the ethical explorations behind every Miyazaki film.
