Trump: Who Will Put The Bell On The Cat?

December 20, 2025 Maria Páez Victor, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! Donald Trump, Military threats, Nicolas Maduro, the Caribbean, US Imperialism, US Sanctions, Venezuela

Trump, the president of the most capitalist nation on Earth, has dealt a blow to the very system upon which his country—and indeed, most of the West—considers the bedrock of the economy, a blow that not even the most revolutionary person today would have foretold or thought to achieve. He has trashed the notion of private property and outright stolen a full oil tanker in international waters, like a modern pirate, and kidnapped its crew. Since September, mighty US navy warships obliterated, with military missiles, 22 small outboard motorboats (mostly in the Caribbean but some in the Pacific), killing at least 87 people.

European Security Includes Russia

December 20, 2025 Jeffrey Sachs, Consortium News. Strategize! Germany, NATO, Russia, Security guarantees, Ukraine, Wars and Militarism

Security guarantees are not one-way instruments. They go in both directions. This is not a Russian argument, nor an American one; it is a foundational principle of European security, explicitly embedded in the Helsinki Final Act, the OSCE framework, and decades of postwar diplomacy. Germany has a duty to approach this moment with historical seriousness and honesty. On that score, recent rhetoric and policy choices fall dangerously short. Since 1990, Russia’s core security concerns have been repeatedly dismissed, diluted or directly violated — often with Germany’s active participation or acquiescence.

Brotherhood Of Sleeping Car Porters Changed Black Politics

December 20, 2025 Paul Prescod, Labor Notes. Strategize! Railroads, Sleeping Car Porters, Unions, Worker Rights

The fact that the meeting was even happening was enough to produce an air of subversive excitement. One hundred years ago on August 25, 1925, Black sleeping car porters, hoping to form a union at the Pullman company, packed the Elks Hall in Harlem. Company spies were probably in the audience as well. Socialist A. Philip Randolph led the meeting, making the case that a union was the only way to deal with their grievances and reclaim their manhood. This gathering initiated a 12-year struggle to form the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters (BSCP) and win a first contract against a corporate giant.

First We End The War, Then We Restart The Factories

December 19, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Strategize! Development, Global South, Hybrid Wars, industrialisation, Sanctions

In mid-November 2025, at a United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO) conference in Saudi Arabia, Basher Abdullah, an adviser to Sudan’s Ministry of Industry and Trade, said, ‘First, we need to end the war. Then, we have to restart the factories’. His comment was about Sudan’s appalling civil war, but it could have been about many countries in the Global South that are in the midst of either a shooting war or a trade war. For these poorer nations, development has been set aside in favour of more immediate threats. Yet beyond the horizon of guns and extortion lies the need to imagine possible futures.

A People’s Orientation To The Praxis Of People(S)-Centered Human Rights

December 18, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Human Rights, Imperialism, North-South Project for People(s)-Centered Human Rights (North South Project), People Centered Human Rights

Since the launch of the North-South Project for People(s)-Centered Human Rights (North South Project) last year, the framework has been steadily increasing in the global lexicon. The framework itself was produced by Black Alliance for Peace (BAP) founder, Ajamu Baraka, who is also the Director of the North South Project, as a direct result of his observations and practice as a long-time human rights activist. Baraka’s observations and practice was systematized into what he refers to as, “the Black radical human rights tradition that is people(s)-centered - hence People(s)-Centered Human Rights (PCHRs).

Privatize USPS? Mail Carriers Have A Better Idea

December 18, 2025 Mel Buer, In These Times. Strategize! Contract Negotiations, Privatization, Unions, US Postal Workers

This week, we’re taking a more national focus, and checking in with the National Association of Letter Carriers, who have been embroiled in a years-long contract negotiation with the U.S. Postal Service. In our episode today, I’m sitting down with Melissa Rakestraw, member of the National Association of Letter Carriers, Branch 825 in Chicago, IL, to discuss the state of negotiations with our nation’s letter carriers, the unprecedented rejection of the recent tentative agreement and what happens next, and what would happen if the U.S. Postal Service was privatized.

Why Have Israel Bonds Become A Target For The BDS Movement?

December 16, 2025 Michael Arria, Mondoweiss. Strategize! BDS Movement, Divestment, Genocide, Israel Bonds

Last month, Florida Atlantic University (FAU) announced that it will invest an additional $5 million in Israel Bonds, making the school the largest Israeli bondholder among universities worldwide. “This is a sound financial decision — but equally important, it is a statement of solidarity that reflects our vision for the future,” declared FAU president Adam Hasner in a press release. “As a leading university and a member of the South Florida community, we cannot ignore what is happening to Jewish students across the country, and we are proud of the steps we are taking to become the safest and most welcoming university for Jewish life in America.”

Learning From UAW History And Taking Control Of Work Reductions

December 14, 2025 Nevena Pilipovic-Wengler and Andrew Bergman, Left Voice. Strategize! Capitalism, History, Job Banks, Layoffs, United Auto Workers (UAW), Worker Rights and Jobs

On the morning of October 29, autoworkers at Factory Zero, the GM electric vehicle plant in Detroit, received an urgent notification about the status of our two-month temporary layoff. For over 1,100 of us working in the plant, the news was that we would have to return to work on Thanksgiving week, only to be indefinitely laid off in January. As the bosses reduce production from two shifts down to one, the holidays are bringing uncertainty and precarity, rather than comfort and stability. Over the past year, hundreds of workers at Factory Zero have already been impacted by rolling layoffs and termination of temporary workers, often announced without notice.

Kerala Has Abolished Extreme Poverty

December 12, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Strategize! India, Kerala, Poverty Eradication, Socialism

On 1 November 2025, the south-western Indian state of Kerala – home to 34 million people – was declared free from extreme poverty by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan. Kerala is one of the few places in the world to have eradicated extreme poverty, following China, which announced in 2022 that it had eradicated extreme poverty nationwide. Kerala’s achievement is significant for two reasons. First, in a country where hundreds of millions of people still live in poverty, Kerala is the only one of India’s twenty-eight states and eight union territories to have overcome extreme poverty.

Year In Rear View: What The Lack Of Principled And Pronounced Opposition Reveals About US Left

December 12, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Fascism, Human Rights, Human Rights Day, k, Leftists, The, Wars and Militarism, Youth Activism

Nearly one year into President Trump’s second term, residents of the United States and the world over have witnessed a louder and faster drumbeat towards full-blown and irrefutable fascism and authoritarianism. We have seen our streets and neighborhoods invaded by masked agents of the State from the Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) division of the Department of Homeland Security who are conducting wholesale roundups and pillage of non-white people from their families, places of employment, and communities, national guard troops patrol streets in many of our cities adding to a culture of fear and uncertainty, especially for non white poor and working class people.

From The ‘Island Of Peace’ Myth To Massacre

December 12, 2025 Muhemsi Mwakihwelo, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Mass Protests, Neoliberalism, Political repression, Tanzania

When Issa Shivji presented the case of Tanzania’s unfolding “silent class struggle” more than five decades ago, the political terrain was still fertile enough to engage with such analysis, even if the ruling class lacked the courage to confront it. Fast-forward to today, and that context has radically shifted. The state and much of the population have become deeply invested in superstitious neoliberal illusions, leaving little room for class-based critique. This transformation has also reinforced the power of the long-standing nationalistic slogan, “the Island of Peace,” a carefully constructed myth that masks inequality and silences dissent.

Occupation, Boycott, Death: The Month That Changed D.C.

December 12, 2025 Jerome Paige, People's World. Strategize! Boycotts, Donald Trump, Military Occupation, Washington D.C.

I didn’t expect to begin this article on a sidewalk. But on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, around noon, I mentally finalized what I thought would be a clean two-week account of Washington’s slow tightening. I got off the Metrorail at 14th and Irving to join the #WeAintBuyingIt rally in front of Target’s entrances. A small crowd had gathered, calm and steady, holding signs.Someone turned to me and said, almost casually, “This is Week 36.” Thirty-six consecutive Saturdays of protest. Thirty-six weeks of refusing to spend money in a store that, in their words, “walked away from the very people who kept it standing.”

Workers Caught Up In Warner Bros. Media Monopoly Battle

December 11, 2025 Chauncey K. Robinson, People's World. Strategize! California, Mergers, Monopoly, Warner Bros, Worker Rights

Hollywood, Calif.—Streaming media giant Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) announced on Dec. 5 that they had entered into a definitive agreement under which Netflix will acquire Warner Bros., including its film and television studios, HBO Max, and HBO. The deal, valued at $82.7 billion, may have the companies’ investors ready to celebrate, but several labor unions and elected officials are sounding the alarm that the acquisition may be bad business for workers and consumers alike. Over the course of several weeks, a bidding war broke out between major media studios Netflix, Paramount Skydance, and a number of other large media conglomerates over which company would acquire part or all of WBD.

Algeria Hosts Conference On The Crimes Of Colonialism In Africa

December 9, 2025 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Algeria, Colonialism, Imperialism, Neocolonialism, Pan Africanism, Reparations

On December 1, 2025, African leaders, diplomats, and scholars gathered in Algiers, Algeria for a conference on the crimes of colonialism in Africa. Dubbed, The International Conference on Colonial Crimes in Africa: Towards Correcting Historical Injustices by Criminalizing Colonialism, the event occurred under the leadership of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and culminated in the drafting and adoption of the Algiers Declaration. The statement consolidates decades of reparations and anti-colonial advocacy into a coherent continental position.
