Today marks 3 years since Israel’s genocidal response to Palestinian freedom fighters breaching the Iron Dome. Since then, while around 800 Israelis were killed, over 74,000 Palestinians have been killed and 94% of people in Gaza are in urgent need of shelter. #FreePalestine

Last night, UE150 VP-Elect Darrion Smith spoke at Durham County meeting on behalf of our union along w community members, to demand a strict 12 mo moratorium on data centers. Instead the county decided on a 9-month “pause” w too many exceptions for “small” data centers.

greater percentage of children killed in Gaza than in Europe's holocaust. that's a hell of a statistic.
The scale of Israel's child killing in Gaza is historically extraordinary—and indefensible. #GazaGenocide

May 25, 1991: Operation Carlota ended. That day, the last Cuban soldiers came home after 16 years in Southern Africa. They didn’t just defend Angola, they freed Namibia & broke apartheid’s back. One of the greatest acts of internationalism in history. The world still owes Cuba.
