Leading the Philippine armed revolution astray
The Communist Party of the Philippines (CPP-Maoist) has spent a tremendous amount of manpower, financial and materials resources in the electoral campaign, in the process forging a tactical alliance with the landlord-bureaucrat capitalist Manuel Villar, the Nacionalista Party--and indirectly with the family of the late fascist puppet dictator Ferdinand Marcos.

The Jena Generation  --An interview with Jordan Flaherty
Jena was more than a historical moment. I think that the young people from around the US – and especially the south – who traveled to Jena for the mass protests, and who also organized in solidarity in their own community, will continue to lead exciting struggles. I think we will see a Jena Generation. (image/jpeg)

text California Governor’s Race: Republican Gubernatorial Candidates Fueling Immigration Fires Richard Perry 2010-05-24 1:49 PM
Stewart Alexander says, if elected governor, he will work with the US Department of Justice to challenge Arizona’s new immigration law; “I believe it is unconstitutional and will adversely affect Mexican-Americans, Muslims, Blacks, and working people.” (text/plain)

text Puerto Rico: Beatings at the Sheraton Internationalist Group 2010-05-22 2:29 AM
On the evening of May 20, the notorious Shock Force of the Puerto Rican Police brutally attacked a demonstration of hundreds of students and workers protesting against Governor Luis Fortuño. The assault took place in the luxurious Sheraton Hotel, where the privatizing, anti-worker governor was presiding over a fancy fundraising dinner. As our reporter recounts, the police brutally beat demonstrators with riot clubs and pepper-sprayed everyone with tear gas and pepper gas. This was the response of the government to the workers strike two days ago in support of the student strike at the University of Puerto Rico, which has lasted almost a month. It is urgently necessary to translate the worker-student unity that was on display on May 18 into powerful strike actions that shut down key sectors of the economy of the U.S.' Caribbean island economy. We publish here the on-the-spot report from our correspondent who witnessed and participated in the protest. (text/html)

BP asks for ideas
BP is asking the public to submit ideas for how to help stop the oil spill. I think this is perfectly reasonable, and am submitting the following modification of their last ditch "junk shot" option: I am proposing the "CEO shot" option. We duct tape the entire cadre of CEOs and investors of BP into a large, tacky ball, and drop them into the pipe. (image/png)

No Need to Drill, Spill, or Kill--A Clean Commute is Possible!
What are we waiting for? Louisiana cannot expect to survive, playing the Oil and Gas industries' game. New Orleans is flat and compact and perfect for cycling. We have the potential to be a wonderful city for a clean energy future. We must take the lead if we expect the rest of the country and the world to support our continued existence on the slow-motion Mudslide we call home. Please join us in a Ride for our Lives! 28th May 2010, 6pm Jackson Square, or in your own town! (image/jpeg + 1 comment)

text Pain Clinics: Solution or Addiction? Paola Martinez 2010-05-19 10:55 PM
Experts contend that some of these clinics are merely “pill mills,” a place for drug addicts and pushers to get their pills, with crime and unrest in the community ensuing. (text/plain + 1 comment)

text Pain Clinics: Solution or Addiction? Antonella Antonecchia 2010-05-19 10:34 PM
Tampa, FL - So often in life we have seen the solution to a particular problem become the problem. Such is the case with some of Pinellas county’s pain clinics. In this case a perfectly valid need for those in pain has been answered by a solution that has created much community hardship and loss. (text/plain)

Africa's female Mandela?  Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza on trial
Opposition presidential candidate Victoire Ingabire Umuhoza stood before a judge in Kigali, Rwanda, on April 22, after the Kagame government arrested and charged her with "associating with terrorists" and "genocide ideology," a crime unique to Rwanda which includes "divisionism" and "revisionism," meaning politics, and/or attempting to revise the received history of the 1994 Rwanda Genocide.

text Bad Attitudes and Dirty Money: Black Blocs, Anarchism, and the World Xavier Massot 2010-05-16 7:47 PM
From the Black Bloc Papers: "It is a strange pill to swallow, the notion that some of your peers, people you don’t know, represent your interests. It is an old tradition, it has given most of us the title of civilians, and it has made others our rulers. Although each life, upon a short and close look, obviously contains its own unfathomable trajectory it has been the way of the modern world to pigeon-hole and harness the energy of each life towards historically questionable ends. This practice, abusing the young in order to eternalize the old, has led us to a point in history in which lives are spent for the sake of the machine’s continuing momentum. Inane, insane, or otherwise, we all go through the hopper from our birth to our determined, predictable, and sometimes socially necessary, death." (text/plain)

text The Emergence of The Black Bloc and The Movement Towards Anarchism David Van Deusen 2010-05-16 7:45 PM
From The Black Bloc Papers: "Since the Battle of Seattle, the North American Left, and specifically the smaller yet growing revolutionary Anarchist movement, has been invigorated at least as much as it has become a common reality in the consciousness of the public. This has not occurred in a vacuum. Nor has this happened due to a simple, quantifiable reason. The reasons are as much diverse and subjective as they are objective and empirically observable."

Grecia: >¡Lágrimas y sangre para el proletariado!
El proletariado está siendo sometido actualmente a una política de lágrimas y sangre por parte de la burguesía dominante, y sólo podrá encontrar una perspectiva y un futuro reiniciando la lucha bajo su propia bandera de clase, rechazando no sólo las medidas asesinas que el gobierno ha tomado contra los trabajadores, sino también los llamados a la «solidaridad nacional», a los «duros sacrificios por el bien del país», a la «defensa del país y la democracia».
