The fact that Lockheed Martinโ€™s stock rose since Feb 27th shows us that private companies trading weapons, mercenaries, airplanes etc are all increasing their profit margins as people from Sudan to Iran to Congo to Palestine are being murdered. Lockheed Martin is implicated in all four places.

ICE is also responsible for an increasing number of dangerous and sometimes deadly car accidents as they recklessly chase people across densely populated neighborhoods.

The least we can do is be students of the struggle enough to know that freedom never looks like US bombs falling on a people already under seige.

May the Iranian people know liberation from the tyranny of the regime & the violence of the US & apartheid state.

I wish more prospective PhD applicants knew that they might not get admitted if there isnโ€™t anyone available to supervise them and NOT because they are not a strong candidate.

It's very important not to gatekeep the concept of mutual aid. It's a good thing if it's expansive. It's a good thing for it to include anything our imaginations can come up with to collectively care for each other. Radicals of the past are not looking down on that with disapproval.

People in Minnesota are now using their key fobs to trigger their car alarms from the safety of their homes when they see ICE walking around.

These photos are terrifying (as opposed to stunning). Black women have been killed in these kind of scenarios long before Trump.
