‼️The Carceral Left Rises (w/ @equalityAlec)‼️ The author of Copaganda exposes how everyone from Malcom Gladwell to Zohran Mamdani to the pages of Jacobin magazine are spreading pro-cop misinformation about the relationship between public safety & policing -- even as the big tech surveillance state has more power than ever to kill the left.

To my nothing-ever-happens eyes, this photo has the aura of one of those “old” political photos, back when things could actually possibly change. Still haven’t quite processed everything tbh but it feels nice to be unsure what comes next

Fox News just called out Greg Abbott directly to his face on why he and Ken Paxton refused to debate their opponents in the Texas Senate and Gubernatorial races. He stumbles big time in answering the question.

When I first donated to Javits gofundme it was around 19k, now it’s over 550k. No amount of money can make this right but at least it’s one less thing for the family to worry about.

He’s genuinely pissed at Keith Lee for rejecting class privilege and advocating for working-class [Black] folks. It’s incredible to see in real time.

And I would have sued. If she’s 10 fucking centimeters someone should have been at the end of the bed already. That baby could have slipped out and hit his head if that dad wasn’t looking. Nurses walking around looking confused asf. He looks irritated and rightfully so.

First of all, I pray that this young woman sees all those in her corner and praying she is well and receives the justice she deserves. Thank you to AJPlus for highlighting the disparity in reaction between to assault and anti-genocide protest activity.

7 male students were accused of gang raping a woman. Part of Cornell University’s punishment was … an essay. At the same time, pro-Palestinian students, were being arrested, suspended or deported for speaking out against the genocide in Gaza.

Let's get some hype going for this documentary, which investigates Kahanist terror on American soil that targeted Palestinian Americans. Alex Odeh's name should be widely known!
Watermelon Pictures (@watermelon_pics) profile pictureWatermelon Pictures@watermelon_picsAug 31
Who killed Alex Odeh? In 1985, Palestinian American activist, and teacher Alex Odeh was assassinated by a bomb planted outside his office in Santa Ana, California. 40 years later, no one has been held accountable. Who Killed Alex Odeh? - in select theaters October 30.

A new UCLA study finds most deaths in LA County Jail happen weeks into a person's stay, not shortly after arrest. More than two-thirds of those who died had not been convicted of anything. newsroom.ucla.edu/releases/l…

Rising deaths in LA County Jail are tied to longer jail stays, study shows

The effects of stress, depression and inadequate healthcare in the county jail build up into lethal risk, a new study led by UCLA researchers has found.
