A strike is more than disruption, itβs a test of clarity. It asks who we fight for, and why. Are we settling for comfort and symbolic victories, or are we demanding the full liberation that the system was built to deny?

Let no one say we did not work for Revolution and Liberation from tyranny.

Sick out for Palestine 12/1. If you have to work, go slow and do the bare minimum. Instead of work, spend the day in community, volunteer your time to support collective care efforts, and educate yourself about the conflict and how it connects to exploitative colonial capitalist systems.
Join us to learn how Red Aid, SICA, and simple outreach help us support our people and grow our movement together. How everyday acts like groceries, rides, diapers, check-ins, can become fuel for a movement.

Contribute what you can, according to your ability. No act is too small, and no offering is insignificant when itβs made in service of liberation. The movement is only as strong as those who rise to build it. Will you rise with us?

Put power back in the hands of the people.
Comrade Jamil AlβAmin built Black power and defended his community, only to be stolen by the U.S. colonial government and forced to die behind enemy walls.
The revolution continues because their spirit...elder and revolutionary, cannot be caged. We honor him with relentless action. βπΎ

Share this widely. π¨ After 7 million people hit the streets during the No Kings rallies, and Chicagoβs Mayor Brandon Johnson publicly called for a General Strike, the idea is breaking through and the time to organize is now. Weβve hit 400K on https://generalstrikeus.com/ The general strike is the ultimate weapon of the working class, a tool to shut down systems that exploit and oppress us. We can make it real, but only if we move together, with strategy and discipline. Join this crucial webinar to study how general strikes have historically shifted power, and learn how we can apply those lessons to our struggle today building collective strength, disrupting the status quo, and reclaiming power for the people. Itβs time we get serious about making a #GeneralStrike happen. If youβre ready or want to learn more, join the call on 11/22: π« https://form.jotform.com/253146901497159 π« π©π»βπ€βπ¨πΏEmail info@generalstrikeus.com if youβd like to organize a viewing party of 3 or more to be live on the Zoom and shout out your organization or chapter.π¨
Can we address the actual elephant in the room? Amerikkka is a settler colonial project. The U.S. government is illegitimate, built on genocide, land theft, and slavery.
So when you get fixated on getting Trump out and nothing else, it shows me your politics begin and end with your personal comfort.

We get push back against a general strike from folks worried that it will hurt small local businesses. Here's the thing, Fascist abuses of our communities are going to hurt small business a LOT more than a few days (or weeks or event months) of a general strike.

Avoid travel and restaurants and cancel streaming and digital subscriptions, organizers said. "If you must spend: support small, local businesses only. Pay in cash." Small Business Saturday on Nov. 30 is exempted from the blackout.

General Strike US Teach-In tonight at 8 est! This is a great way to learn more about the movement and connect with other volunteers.
Can't make it tonight? Don't worry! These are hosted every other Sunday, so mark the next one on your calendar!
What weβre fighting is not just corruption or bad leadership. Itβs a system that was never designed for liberation. A system that canβt be fixed with a new president, because its foundation is domination of land, labor, and life itself.
Our work is to build beyond it.
