Progressive Popular Movements And Organizations In Solidarity With People Of Sudan

November 7, 2025 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. , , , , , ,
Across Africa and the world, progressive and popular organizations are raising their voices in solidarity with the people of Sudan, as they face one of the most brutal and protracted conflicts in the world today. From Ghana to South Africa, from international networks to grassroots movements, the message is unified in a call to end the massacres, open humanitarian corridors, and uphold the Sudanese people’s struggle for justice, peace, and sovereignty. Amid mounting international condemnation for its war crimes, especially over the last several weeks, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) have reportedly agreed to a three-month pause in the fighting.

Allina Health Doctors Hold One-Day Strike

November 7, 2025 Fight Back! News. , , , ,
On Wednesday, a group of more than 600 physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners held a one-day strike against their employer, Minneapolis-based Allina Health. The primary and urgent care providers work at over 60 clinics in Minnesota and Wisconsin and are organized with Doctors Council SEIU Local 10MD. The Doctors Council said this event is the largest private-sector strike among healthcare providers in United States history, as well as the first ever in Minnesota. Matt Hoffman, family medicine physician at Allina, explained: “After 20 months of bargaining, we are striking for a primary care system where doctors, nurse practitioners and physician assistants have the time and resources to give our patients the best possible care.”

Tropical Forest Forever Facility Or The Fake Forest Fund?

November 7, 2025 Global Campaign to Demand Climate Justice. , , , , ,
Belem, Brazil - The Global Campaign to Demand Climate Justice (DCJ) and its members and allies from Brazil and across the world reject the new proposal of Tropical Forest Forever Facility presented by the Brazilian government at the Leaders Summit being held in Belem from 6-7 November 2025. TFFF is a false solution that deepens the financialisation and commodification of forests rather than protecting them. Behind the rhetoric of conservation, the TFFF hands control of forest governance to global financial actors and institutions like the World Bank, with a documented history of human and environmental rights violations in so-called “conservation” and “development” projects.

VIPS Memo: What Wider War In Venezuela Would Bring

November 6, 2025 Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity, Consortium News. , , , , ,
We are deeply concerned about where the United States seems to be headed in its Venezuela policy and urge you to demand that the Intelligence Community give you clear, unfiltered, “truth-to-power” analysis, as well as covert action options in Venezuela. Flying blind into an unprovoked war against a Latin American government, even one weakened by years of U.S. “maximum-pressure” sanctions, risks a conflagration that could draw Russia into the conflict and offers zero probability of establishing a legitimate, pro-U.S. successor government. We see a classic storm of politicization brewing in the Intelligence Community, to which we devoted our careers, as a result of blatant pressures that it give you the “right” answer – fabricating or exaggerating a pretext for direct military intervention in Venezuela.

Sheinbaum To Trump: Mexico Will Not Accept Military Intervention

November 6, 2025 TeleSur, Orinoco Tribune. , , ,
At a press conference Tuesday, Sheinbaum dismissed reports of a proposed US military operation against drug trafficking on Mexican soil and asserted her government would not permit it under any circumstances. “That’s not going to happen. We have no reports that that’s going to happen, and we disagree with it, and we’ve made that clear to President Trump,” the head of state said in response to a report published the previous day by NBC News. Sheinbaum recalled that both countries signed a bilateral agreement Sept. 3 following a meeting at the National Palace with Secretary of State Marco Rubio. She emphasized the deal is based on non-negotiable principles.

Hind Rajab Foundation Takes Aim At European Investment Bank

November 6, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
The Hind Rajab Foundation’s (HRF) complaint against the European Investment Bank (EIB) for alleged complicity in Israeli war crimes has advanced to a formal assessment phase within the bank’s Complaints Mechanism (EIB-CM), Anadolu Agency reported on 4 November. HRF said the step is not merely procedural but represents “a political and legal milestone” and “a turning point,” forcing a European institution to reckon with its role in grave breaches of international law.  The group described it as one of the first legal actions within the European Union that directly challenges the financial complicity of an EU institution in Israeli war crimes.

British Journalist Sami Hamdi Fights Deportation While In ICE Detention

November 6, 2025 Kevin Gosztola, The Dissenter. , , , , , ,
Several journalist unions and press freedom and free speech groups condemned President Donald Trump’s administration for detaining British journalist and political commentator Sami Hamdi. “The arrest of Sami Hamdi constitutes a serious violation of his fundamental rights and poses a grave threat to freedom of expression and democratic principles,” declared International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) General Secretary Anthony Bellanger.  Bellanger added, “We are deeply concerned by the apparent misuse of anti-terror legislation, which risks setting a dangerous precedent for journalists and citizens engaging in public debate and exercising their right to free speech.”

Lawsuit Charges That California Law Illegally Muzzles Students, Teachers

November 6, 2025 Marjorie Cohn, Truthout. , , , ,
Beginning January 1, 2026, teachers in California classrooms will be looking over their shoulders to avoid running afoul of a frightening new “antisemitism” law. On October 7, despite widespread opposition from civil rights groups, teachers’ unions, and education advocates, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed AB 715, which amends the California Education Code to police what teachers can teach and what students can learn about Israel and Palestine. “This problematic classroom censorship bill silences Muslim, Arab, Palestinian, Jewish, and other marginalized voices in California public schools by shielding a foreign government — Israel — from legitimate criticism and criminalizes honest discussions on Palestine and other global human rights issues,” the Council on American Islamic Relations said in a statement.

Union Starbucks Baristas Overwhelmingly Authorize ULP Strike

November 6, 2025 Starbucks Workers United. , , ,
Nationwide - Union baristas announced Wednesday that they have authorized an open-ended unfair labor practice (ULP) strike with 92% voting “yes” ahead of the critical holiday season. The vote comes after six months of Starbucks refusing to offer new proposals to address workers’ demands for better staffing, higher pay, and a resolution of hundreds of unfair labor practice charges. “Our fight is about actually making Starbucks jobs the best jobs in retail. Right now, it’s only the best job in retail for Brian Niccol,” said Jasmine Leli, a 3-year Starbucks barista and strike captain from Buffalo, NY.

Boeing Machinists Strike At Three Months

November 6, 2025 Jim McMahan, Workers World. , , , , ,
With their strike against Boeing closing in on three months, St. Louis members of the International Association of Machinists (IAM) District 837 have now rejected Boeing’s fourth disrespectful contract offer. The workers walked out on Aug. 4. Facing an austerity contract from a powerful monopoly corporation, the Machinists have shown tremendous resilience. Boeing is heavily involved in supplying war planes from the St. Louis plants for the Pentagon’s war on Gaza. Boeing and the Pentagon’s genocidal war against Gaza has the makings of an economic war on strikers at the company’s main military division in St. Louis.

Home Depot Raid Proves ICE Targets Workers And Little Kids

November 6, 2025 Sol Marquez, Fight Back! News. , , ,
Lincoln Heights, CA — In the early hours on November 4, an ICE raid took place at the Cypress Park Home Depot in Lincoln Heights. After the first sweep, more agents returned to do another. Only this time, Centro CSO members and other members and organizations with the Community Self Defense Coalition had arrived to protest the ICE presence. “ICE knows time is not on their side when conducting kidnappings,” said Centro CSO member and Teamster Sam Carrera. “Within minutes there were around 50 rapid responders at the Home Depot. Some folks posted at every parking lot entrance, equipped with whistles and walkie talkie radios.

Exposing The Tata Group: Major Sponsor Of New York Marathon

November 5, 2025 Salam: South Asian Left, Mondoweiss. , , , , ,
On Sunday, hundreds of thousands of runners and spectators from around the world gathered in New York City to celebrate endurance, achievement, and community. Yet, this bright imagery masks the grim reality of the marathon’s title sponsor, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), a company complicit in the genocide of the Palestinian people. In the weeks leading up to the largest marathon in the world, the “TCS” logo has become ubiquitous across the five boroughs. From special-edition New Balance “TCS Marathon” shoes that light up Times Square, to TCS-branded half-zips donned by every other runner in Prospect Park, reminders of the upcoming race are everywhere. 

Tulane Students Disrupt IDF Event, Resist Police Repression

November 5, 2025 Annabelle Jones, Fight Back! News. , , ,
New Orleans, LA – On the night of Monday, November 3, 60 Tulane students and community members gathered for a noise demonstration to protest the first stop of a national “Combat on Campus Tour” of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldiers. The IDF event was hosted by Tulane Students Supporting Israel (SSI) at the Chabad Center of Louisiana near Tulane University’s campus. Protesters, called together by Together United Louisiana Students for a Democratic Society (TUL SDS), banged pots, pans and drums to disrupt the two IDF soldiers who came to share “their firsthand stories from October 7 and the war that followed.”

A West Bank Village Calls For International Support

November 4, 2025 Cassidy Klein and Ashley Ver Beek, Waging Nonviolence. , , ,
In the hills of Masafer Yatta in the occupied West Bank, a small Bedouin community in the village of Umm al-Khair has fought for decades to remain on their land, a rocky landscape dotted with olive trees, where they farm and raise livestock. As a community with a steadfast commitment to nonviolent struggle, they document and fight back against increasing settler violence and land annexation for the illegal Israeli settlement expansion that surrounds their homes.  In an attack on Oct. 28, the community of 300 people was raided by the Israeli occupation forces and handed a series of final demolition orders for 11 residential homes, a community center, a playground and a greenhouse.

From Tariffs To Tribute: The $350B Price Of ‘Parity’

November 4, 2025 Atul Chandra, People's Dispatch. , , , ,
On October 29, 2025, the carefully scripted pageantry of the US-ROK alliance in Gyeongju and Seoul met an unwelcome counter-narrative from the streets. While US President Donald Trump was being feted with a Silla-era replica gold crown and Korea’s highest honor, thousands of workers, trade unionists, farmers, students, and women’s collectives converged near the APEC venues. They chanted a unified dissent: “No kings!” and “No to APEC for the 1%”. Organizers framed the protest as a demand for the restoration of national dignity against what they saw as an act of economic coercion.
