For a short break and lots of fun check out Yours truly and family in this skit about Palantir Palantir is the #ScariestCompanyonEarth ! Yesterday, we held a live street theatre performance protesting Palantir, a company that provides technology and data to ICE and harms so many communities. ... The performance featured special guest The Grim Reaper, came to Denver to hold Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir, responsible for his crimes. You can participate on Halloween posting a pic of you in costume with posts from our social media guide bit.ly/ScariestCompany https://fb.watch/1snubto1Dy/ #PalantirOutofCO #PalantirNotWelcomeHere #NoTechForICE
NEW REPORT: A Toolkit for Social Justice Advocates: Why Treating White Supremacy as Domestic Terrorism Won't Work and How Not to Fall for It This is an *essenti...al* resource in this moment of expanding consciousness around PIC abolition, increasing societal polarization, and multiple crises. Fear of armed white supremacist militias (the ones not sanctioned by the state) does NOT mean we turn to federal law enforcement or the counter-terror aparatus to stop them. Thank you Nicole Nguyen and Yazan Zahzah for this phenomenal toolkit. http://www.stopcve.com//11244/white_supremacy_toolkit.pdf
Stop for a moment, friends around the world, to celebrate! The big moment is finally here: The UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) just reach...ed the 50 ratifications needed for entry into force! Just now, Honduras ratified the treaty - only one day after Jamaica and Nauru submitted their ratifications - bringing about a historic milestone. In 90 days the TPNW will enter into force and become binding international law! Photo: ICAN | Aude Catimel See more
On Sunday, Oct 25, 2020, 48 hours after a Border Patrol agent killed a Mexican man in San Ysidro behind the Las Americas outlet stores, community members gather...ed to place cempasuchitl flowers on a makeshift alter in a vigil while calling for transparency and justice in the investigation, in addition to an end to violence by Border Patrol agents. Few details are known about what took place that led to Border Patrol using deadly force, but Border Patrol agents have abused their power in prior cases attempting to manipulate details about the investigations. This has included threatening and dispersing witnesses, tampering with evidence, illegally acquiring evidence, and leaking false information about the victims to the media. The vigil was a necessary action to demonstrate that border communities will not tolerate state violence.
