Campaigns teach by more than what is in their written programs. Even if the campaign was more explicitly radical, functionally it is teaching people that social change comes about through electing better politicians. The campaign has all the features of a mainstream election effort – adoration of a single personality, exaggeration of his “leadership”, meaningless pledges to “get results for you”. This is an elitist approach that reinforces the passivity of people by making someone else the “leader” who gets things done, instead of arguing for all of us to take control over our own lives. The activists and community members who have dived into the Ty Moore campaign are not prioritizing organizing one-on-ones to plan direct actions at work, at school, or in their neighborhoods, or discussing and debating how to replace the racist police with community militias or how narrow gender-roles stifle our humanity or how to build rank & file power against the union bureaucracy. They are rallying around “our guy” and training people to fundraise and to get out the vote. This is the main lesson that participants in the campaign are gaining: How to participate in this unjust system. ... read full story / add a comment

Parece que Obama nos quisiera tomar el pelo. A todos. Sin siquiera sonrojarse, se ha “comprometido”, en una carta enviada al gobierno de Rusia, que no torturarán ni condenarán a muerte a Edward Snowden, actualmente asilado en ese país. ¡Qué generoso el sátrapa de Washington! Las promesas patéticas de Obama de no torturar y de no asesinar a Snowden, solamente no recuerdan que éste es uno de los países en el mundo donde la pena de muerte se aplica con la mayor ligereza y donde, como él mismo lo admite tácitamente, se tortura. Más allá de lo difícil que es creer en nada de lo que EEUU promete, lo cierto es que Obama no puede prometer algo que es lo que realmente importa en el proceso de asilo: las garantías para un juicio justo. ... read full story / add a comment

There is only one way to achieve any justice for Trayvon Martin and the thousands of other young, African-American men and women who have been profiled, attacked or killed because they were walking or driving while Black, and that is to resist, to rise up, and to rebel... If we want justice for Trayvon Martin and if we want to confront racism, racial profiling and the wholesale attacks on young African-Americans and people of color, then we must bring it. There is no justice for Trayvon Martin under this system. Be prepared. What we have to say, all of us is: Justice is coming and we are all bringing it. ... read full story / add a comment

Ci vuole il massimo di resistenza contro le idee anti-gay, contro queste ideologie, contro le aggressioni e la violenza. La soluzione non sta nell'avere dei poliziotti gay o un governo pro-gay. La polizia ed il sistema di cui è al servizio non fanno che perpetrare la violenza e l'ingiustizia istituzionalizzate. Dobbiamo stare nelle lotte per la libertà e per l'uguaglianza degli LGTBQ. Che si faccia parte delle persone LGTBQ o che si sia loro alleati, dobbiamo stabilire connessioni con i milioni di persone che stanno lottando per la dignità e la giustizia tanto a livello personale che sociale. Di fronte alle aggressioni ed agli omicidi che vengono commessi, dobbiamo lavorare per denunciare e per incoraggiare, per auto-organizzare quelle iniziative e quei progetti che possano mobilitare e creare azione - sia con la immediata autodifesa nella strade sia nelle organizzazioni di massa che si scontrano con le leggi governative e sociali! E' necessario far sapere a chi pensa di poterci colpire che non gli sarà così facile! [English] ... read full story / add a comment

There has to be maximum resistance to anti-gay ideas, ideologies, attacks and violence. The solution isn’t in gay cops or a pro-gay government. The police and the System they serve are perpetrators of institutional violence and injustice. We have to be in the struggles for LGTBQ freedom and equality. Whether as LGTBQ folks or as allies, we must be connecting with the millions of people who are fighting for personal and social dignity and justice. As attacks and murders are committed, we must work to either highlight and encourage or organize ourselves those initiatives and projects that mobilize and act – whether in outright street based self-defense or in mass organizations that confront government and social laws! We need to make it rough for anyone who thinks they can bash us! [Italiano] ... read full story / add a comment

On the eve of International Women’s Day, so-called men’s rights advocates at the University of Toronto hosted an event confronting women’s studies and academic feminism. This was a follow-up to their event in November featuring self-proclaimed ex-feminist Warren Farrell, author of the book the Myth of Male Power. Warren Farrell is best known for his statements about women making false accusations of rape and his argument that incest can be a positive experience, if only women were not socialized to be victims. ... read full story / add a comment

E' passato più di un mese da quando la Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) ha tenuto una giornata di protesta in occasione della convention provinciale per la guida del Liberal Party, mobilitando almeno 15000 persone per le strade di Toronto fino alle 16.00. La protesta era la risposta sindacale al Disegno di Legge 115, con cui si autorizza il governo provinciale ad eludere la contrattazione collettiva e ad aprire i termini per nuovi "accordi collettivi".

It has been over a month since the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) held their one-day protest of the provincial Liberal Party leadership convention, mobilizing some 15,000 people on the streets of Toronto and then sending them all home again around 4:00 PM. The protest was part of the trade union response to Bill 115, which enabled the provincial government to circumvent collective bargaining and mandate the terms of new “collective agreements”.

The terrain is changing beneath our feet. Since the collapse of the majority of the “official communist” regimes, the world has witnessed both events and ideas that have undermined the former dominant thinking within the left. The Zapatistas, Argentina in 2001, South Korean workers movements, Oaxaca in 2006, the struggles around anti-globalization, and Greece’s series of insurrectionary moments have increasingly presented challenges to traditional left answers to movements and organization. In previous eras Marxist-Leninism was the nexus which all currents by default had to respond to either in agreement or critique. Today, increasingly anarchist practices and theory have come to play this role. As a member of an anarchist political organization, a friend once told me I in fact was practicing democratic centralism. This was perplexing, because the group had no resembling structures, practices, or the associated behaviors of democratic centralism. However, I was told that since we debated, came to common decisions, and acted on that collective democracy, we were in fact democratic centralist. This kind of productive confusion led to questions about the concept, and why the target of democratic centralism has shifted. This move, the shifting conceptual territory of core concepts of a certain orthodoxy, comes up repeatedly not only with democratic centralism, but also surrounding ideas like crisis, dialectics, the State, and class. The resulting cognitive dissonance caused me to investigate attempts at reinvigorating the concept of democratic centralism (democratic centralist revisionism), and understand truly what it is, where it came from, and how it has been practiced. ... read full story / add a comment

For Black History Month: In 1941, the African-American labor leader, A. Philip Randolph made a call for a national demonstration by African-Americans in Washington, D.C. The demonstration never occurred, because of sabotage by White and Black liberals. But the organizing for it, and the movement behind it, continuing during World War II, had a big impact on U.S. Black people. It was an important influence preparing for the Civil Rights and Black Liberation struggles of the 1950s and ‘60s. ... read full story / add a comment

It is at those moments that you see the most crucial element of the struggle, and how you can use this organizing to transform the conversation about housing. ... read full story / add a comment |
