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 [...]

The White Supremacist Imperative on Violence

A Black Radical Perspective on the US/EU/NATO Axis of Domination Margaret Kimberly interviews Ajamu Baraka on Black Agenda Report [excerpts] https://blackagendareport.com/white-supremacist-imperative-violence-black-radical-perspective-useunato-axis-domination MK:  The US attacked Iran on February 28 and did so underestimating Iran’s ability to defend itself. Iran then closed the Strait of Hormuz. The US was forced to enter into talks with Iran, which ended with a Memorandum of Understanding. Anyone serious realized that this was not to be trusted, [...]

Fascist Attacks on Differently-Abled People

KPFK Disarming Itself Against Trump's Fascist Playbook by Michael Novick, Anti-Racist Action-Los Angeles/People Against Racist Terror (ARA-LA/PART) Trump and RFK Jr. are coming after people with disabilities, rejecting the applicability of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Unfortunately, KPFK no longer airs the Access Unlimited program focusing on disability rights and resources that I had restored to the air, and thus has lost the capacity to be a platform for that community in [...]

Protect Workers from Extreme Heat

by the AFL-CIO Cities coast to coast are breaking all-time heat records this July, as the extreme heat continues. But while workers continue to face dangerous and potentially deadly working conditions, anti-worker leaders in Congress are quietly attempting to stop any heat safety protection laws from being passed, now or in the future. H.R. 6213, the misnamed Heat Workforce Standards Act, would prohibit the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) from creating [...]

Haiti: Solidarity in a World at War

By Robert Roth, Haiti Action Committee [excerpts] As the world reels from the devastating U.S.-Israel war on Iran and Lebanon, and as the U.S.-backed Israeli genocide continues in Gaza and the West Bank, the Trump Administration’s plan to assert its dominance over the Americas is also moving forward at an unprecedented pace. Having kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro and his wife and colleague, Cilia Flores, and taken control over Venezuela’s oil reserves, [...]

NATIONAL MOBILIZATION AGAINST GENOCIDES

July 4, 2026 - Atlanta Georgia Today's reading of the US Declaration of Independence leaves little to celebrate. The forefathers of the USA called to dissolve the political bonds that connected their new colonies to the British empire. However, the masses of people living here, created equal in the eyes of God/Allah/the Great Spirit, were in no way treated equally or free by those who proclaimed this land to be the “United [...]

Giant Georgia data center secretly used 29 million gallons of water; avoids fine

https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/georgia-data-center-used-29-million-gallons-of-water by Luke James An AI data center project secretly sucked 29 million gallons of water over 15 months before detected by residents complaining about low water pressure — officials refuse to fine builders of massive 6.2 million-square-foot facility over unauthorized water use. County's soft touch is attributed to the data center being 'our largest customer, and we have to be partners.' Fayette County, Georgia, was telling residents to stop watering their [...]

By Dani J.
