Solidarity w/the actionists who occupied a building at Barnard. W4G continues to be inspired by the Popular University for Gaza and the student intifada. We also dream of a world where learning is marshaled in service of Palestinian liberation rather than the death-making profits of universities.

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

Ahead of Germany's snap election, I spoke to researchers about how rising rents are driving voters to the far right and organizers about how they're pushing back and bringing communities together around progressive solutions. Read my reporting at @truthout.org: truthout.org/articles/exp...

All eyes on Germany this Sunday. 🗳️ Rising housing costs fuel a paradoxical trend—far-right forces capitalise on cost-of-living fears but offer no real solutions. The opposition must act boldly—invest in public, cooperative & social housing or risk leaving the field open. truthout.org/articles/exp...
