The “Mid-Term” Elections Will Not Save Us From Fascism

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action-Los Angeles/People Against Racist Terror (ARA-LA/PART) https://antiracist.org/the-mid-term-elections-will-not-save-us-from-fascism/ The so-called “mid-term” elections are less than a month away. Yet the very name underscores the centrality and primacy of executive power and the imperial presidency within the US political system. The election is “mid-term” only in reference to the four-year term of whoever is in the White House. The representatives and senators seeking re-election are at the END of their [...]

Lula Wins in Brazil, but the Far Right Won’t Back Down

By Geraldina Colotti https://resumen-english.org/2026/10/lula-wins-in-brazil-but-the-far-right-wont-back-down/ Brazil held its ground, one of the last bulwarks against the advance of the far right in Latin America.

Vote for 16-year-olds on Culver City Ballot

The ballot measure in would allow teenagers to participate in the decision-making process on many issues that directly affect their lives.

Life After Death Row

© 2026 by Mumia Abu-Jamal I always look to the ancestors, the old ones who came before us, who lived in these bodies before we were born; those who not only look like us, who walk like us, who talk like us, who dream like us, who feel like us, who weep like us; those who came before, those who suffered that which is today almost incomprehensible. Those are the people I [...]

I think it is very important to demonstrate opposition to what our government is doing. As a disabled veteran, I am very concerned especially about the wars the US is waging or financing, and about the militarism at our so-called Department of War. But I think [...]

Resist Rubio’s McCarthyite Attacks on Cuba, the Black Freedom Struggle, and the Left

by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action Los Angeles (ARA-LA/PART) At a recent international gathering of right-wing states and parties, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, angling to run again for US president as a MAGA hard-liner this time, delivered a speech and a 100+ page document attacking Cuba, the Black freedom struggle in the US, and anything to the left of MAGA, as violence-prone communists intent on subversion. This new McCarthyism seeks to [...]
