2021 continues to be a master class in Ruth Gilmore’s concept of “organized abandonment” i.e. the decades-long project of disinvestment in life-giving systems (healthcare, housing, education, etc) and investment in death-dealing ones (policing, incarceration, surveillance, etc).

Just to really tie everything together, the person killed by police in Brooklyn today was Haitian -- it's not just vigilantes. The police are the fascists, and vice versa.

Everywhere cops go, they are the biggest threat to public safety.

At one point Louverture considered invading the United States (and woulda had a decent shot) newrepublic.com/article/1390…
part not in play: during Haitian Revolution Hamilton and Jefferson covertly spent $726,000-already appropriated as part of debt payment to France so they didn’t need Congress approval-to buy arms for French planters to put down what TJ called “cannibals of the terrible republic.”

Sorry to university administrators but there is no policy you can write that will magically make your students as racist as you are and every time you try all you do is add moral clarity to the situation

Folks are so numbed to N.Y.P.D. corruption that sometimes reporting like this gets lost in the noise
But each one of the hundreds of cases the NYPD kills without review is someone’s lived experience - often traumatic - that moved them to file a complaint. propublica.org/article/nypd-…

Happy revolutionary birthday to Amilcar Cabral!

Not great that the points of convergence from both candidates in tonight’s debate seem to be: accelerating climate change, terrorizing migrants, and providing cover and arms for Israel’s genocide

New: On Thursday, student debtors over the age of 50— many of whom were born in the 1940s, 50's and 60's—will hold a vigil at the White House.
Borrowers will demand the Biden-Harris admin allow death to not be their only path to student loan relief.

‘Fuck you Adams. No cop city in Queens. This means war.’
Massive banners dropped sometime recently declaring war against the mayor following plans announced in May to launch a ‘cop city’ training facility in College Point, Queens (More on that: citylimits.org/2024/07/09/op…)

Rep. Porter is correct here. MOHELA has been misleading and taking advantage of teachers, social workers and other public servants — all so they can pad their pockets at student debtors' expense.
The Biden administration should fire MOHELA.
The Biden-Harris Administration has delivered substantial relief to Americans with student loans, but some efforts have been bungled by student loan servicers like MOHELA. I’m working to hold @MOHELA accountable for their long record of mismanaging student loans.

"Biden could provide federal funding to out-of-state abortion travel like it does for military members, declaring a reproductive health emergency if necessary. Funding travel rather than procedure costs gets around the Hyde Amendment which Congress doesn’t have votes to repeal."
NEW: Abortion funds and clinics, still reeling after funding cuts from pro-choice groups, face yet another obstacle—the end of a program covering abortions for people from states w/ bans. The cuts total $1 million a month, per source. Me in @thenation:
