Theme From The Bottom: Post COP30 Reflections

November 26, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! climate crisis, COP30, Decolonization, Indigenous Peoples, People's Summit, White Supremacy

The first Conference of the Parties (COP) summit I attended was back in 2015, COP 21, which took place in Paris, France. At this point in my climate and environmental justice journey I was wide-eyed and perhaps even a bit naive as I believed that nation states, international bodies like the United Nations, and so-called Civil Society Organizations contained the requisite mettle and principles to take on the crisis of climate change at scale while and the root causes that maintain and exacerbate it - white “supremacy” ideology, patriarchy, and colonization - contemporaneously.

Cuba’s Participatory Path In A Time Of Economic Siege

November 26, 2025 Isaac Saney, Resumen English. Strategize! Cuba, Economic Blockade, Economic crisis, Participatory Democracy

Amid one of the most severe economic moments since the triumph of the Revolution—and under the weight of a suffocating, ever-expanding U.S. imperial siege—Cuba is attempting something that remains almost unthinkable in the so-called advanced capitalist democracies: it is involving its citizenry directly, consciously, and systematically in charting the country’s economic future. While the wealthy western nations increasingly marginalize their own working populations, Cuba insists that the resolution of the crisis must be a collective, participatory, and profoundly democratic undertaking.

After The Ceasefire: What Next For Global Solidarity With Palestine?

November 24, 2025 Shatha Abdulsamad, Mondoweiss. Strategize! Ceasefire, Gaza, Israel, Palestine, Palestine Solidarity

Despite Hamas and Israel agreeing on a ceasefire on October 10, the genocide in the Gaza Strip has only slowed down. United States President Donald Trump’s “peace plan” does not address the Israeli structural violence that still exists against Palestinians, and there has been no real movement or action from governments to hold the architects of the genocide accountable for their crimes. Although the daily massacres – averaging about 100 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip – have lessened, the mechanisms of oppression are still firmly in place: the territory remains blockaded, and Israeli aerial and artillery attacks persist with minimal resistance from world governments.

Inalienable Right Of Africans, People Of African Descent To Reparations

November 24, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Community of Caribbean States (CARICOM), Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), Ghana, Pan Africanism, Reparations

Asserting the “inalienable right of Africans and people of African descent to full reparations” for “slavery, colonialism, apartheid, and systemic exploitation”, an international Pan-African conference on November 18 and 19 adopted the Accra Declaration on Reparatory Justice. Mandating the establishment of a “Pan-African Reparatory Justice Coordinating Committee” and laying out the next steps to be taken, the Accra declaration signalled “a new era of coordinated global action on reparatory justice,” said the Pan-African Progressive Front (PPF). A global platform undertaking research, advocacy, and grassroots mobilization to strengthen the Pan-African movement, the PPF organized this event to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the historic 5th Pan-African Congress in October 1945 in Manchester, England.

COP30 Isn’t A Failure, It’s A Farce

November 22, 2025 Peter Gelderloos, In These Times. Strategize! Brazil, climate crisis, COP30, Indigenous Peoples

Belem, Brazil — As the COP30 climate summit comes to a close here in Belém, in the Brazilian state of Pará, conference organizers have little to show after two weeks of highly publicized talks. This is bad for everyone. The United Nations Climate Change Conference desperately needed to restore its reputation. After all, last year’s COP29 took place in Azerbaijan, where fossil fuels make up 90% of the exports and where the government was being accused of carrying out genocide in the months leading up to the conference. The previous year, the COP28 was held in Dubai, capital of another petrostate.

Organizing For A Breakout

November 21, 2025 Chris Townsend, Portside. Strategize! Labor Movement, Organizing, Unions, Worker Rights

There is a military axiom that if your positions are encircled by far superior forces, you will inevitably be annihilated, unless you break out. I have been a member of our labor movement and left wing since I got out of high school in 1979. For every one of those 46 years our labor movement has been under heavy attack, and at the end of every year we were smaller and more exhausted than when it began. This year will be no exception. With only a few scant exceptions the U.S. labor movement continues to avoid the key question of new organizing. The call to “Organize the Unorganized!” is no longer heard. Embattled unions must draw to their support the masses of unorganized – or face destruction.

Employers And Labor Groups Try To Protect Workers From ICE

November 21, 2025 Jeremy Lindenfeld, Scheer Post. Strategize! ', ICE, Immigrants, Labor Movement, Worker Rights'

A lot of undocumented immigrants — and their employers — remember when the siege began.Federal immigration agents equipped with tactical gear and rifles descended on downtown Los Angeles in armored trucks on June 6, arresting dozens of workers at an apparel factory. Within hours, another group of agents raided a Home Depot a few miles away, arresting day laborers who were looking for work. Those operations quickly became a flashpoint, sparking spontaneous large-scale street protests. But President Donald Trump’s administration doubled down, and more high-profile raids followed as the White House sought to make good on the president’s promise to conduct the largest mass deportation program in the nation’s history.

Michigan Coalition Puts Billionaires On Notice

November 20, 2025 Drew Younker, People's World. Strategize! Billionaires, Education, Michigan, Public schools, Taxes

Lansing, Michigan - Corporate-backed lawyers descended on the state capital in late June in a frantic attempt to derail a popular ballot initiative that would tax the wealthiest Michiganders to fund the state’s starving public schools. The Invest in MI Kids campaign (with the MI pronounced like “my”), an evolution of the “Babies over Billionaires” movement, arrived at a Board of State Canvassers meeting to get its 100-word petition summary approved. The measure would levy a 5% tax on annual income over $500,000 for individuals and $1,000,000 for couples, directing the revenue exclusively to the State School Aid Fund.

The Masses Build And Sustain A Zone Of Peace Through Unity Of Struggles

November 19, 2025 Clau O'Brien Moscoso, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Caribbean, CELAC, Latin America, US Imperialism, Wars and Militarism, Zone of Peace

On November 8-9, 2025, the social component of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) met in Santa Marta, Colombia, as the CELAC-EU Summit took place on November 9-10. The purpose of the CELAC-EU Summit was to enhance strategic cooperation between Latin America and the Caribbean and the European Union in a time of heightened United States militarism targeting the Bolivarian peoples of Venezuela and now Colombia. A major theme of the summit was the unique geostrategic and historic role that Latin America and the Caribbean as a region have in the creation and strengthening of a multipolar world free of the dictates of the over 200-year-old Monroe Doctrine.

How Britain Can Lose Its United Nations Veto

November 19, 2025 Craig Murray, Consortium News. Strategize! Independence Movement, Scotland, UN Security Council (UNSC), United Nations (UN), UNSC

Scottish Independence is an extremely attractive prospect to states at the United Nations, and for reasons that you might not expect. Every state knows that the current U.N. structure is outdated and indefensible, with five states – U.S., China, Russia, U.K. and France – having a permanent seat and a total veto on the Security Council. U.S. abuse of the veto directly to continue the Gaza genocide has been flagrant and caused outrage. Africa and South America have no permanent representation or veto. The prominence of the Imperial powers of the U.K. and France is anachronistic. The difficulty is, that any change to the veto is subject to veto. So there has been stalemate, and during the genocide in Gaza the U.N. itself has been outraged, maligned, abused and practically useless.

Mali Defends Sovereignty Against A Western-Backed ‘Proxy War’

November 19, 2025 Pavan Kulkarni, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Mali, Proxy War, Sovereignty, Terrorists

Amid a barrage of media reports prophesying the fall of Mali to an Al Qaeda affiliate disrupting its fuel supply by attacking tankers, delegates from ten African countries, Iran, and Turkey attended a defense expo in the capital Bamako from November 11 to 14. The city was reported to be “under siege”, encircled by jihadists closing in on power. Some version of “Is Mali about to fall?” was a rhetorical question across headlines, while the Atlantic Council declared the country was “unraveling”. Dismissing this portrayal as a scenario “concocted in the office of foreign intelligence services”, Foreign Minister Abdoulaye Diop insisted that “the fate of Mali, and the destiny of the people in the West African region will not be decided” by the media.

‘Pelosi’s Law’: Why Democratic Leaders Think They’re Winning By Losing

November 17, 2025 John Canham-Clyne, Substack. Strategize! Democrat Party, Democrats, Health Care, Nancy Pelosi

With her legacy on prominent display, Nancy Pelosi’s retirement announcement couldn’t have been better timed. When better to bid farewell to a historic party leader than during a bruising fight over a corner of the U.S. health care mess, where winning won’t improve a single person’s health care but will perpetuate trillions of dollars in subsidies for corporations? There’s not much to say about the content of the reported deal to end the government shutdown that Healing and Stealing hasn’t already said. Several million people may no longer be able to buy coverage, which a huge portion of them won’t use anyway, because the enhanced subsidies don’t cover the extreme cost sharing that plagues ACA plans. Cutting the subsidies is cruel, and Congress should extend them, but it’s a fight to preserve an awful status quo.

The Overshoot Presidency And The State Of Climate Politics

November 17, 2025 Alberto Toscano, In These Times. Strategize! climate crisis, Environment, False Solutions, Fossil Fuel, Technology

Ahead of this November’s Cop30 climate summit, to be held in Belém, Brazil — the gateway to the Amazon River — United Nations Secretary General António Guterres delivered a stark statement: “Let’s recognize our failure. The truth is that we have failed to avoid an overshooting above 1.5 degrees [Celsius] in the next few years. And that going above 1.5 degrees has devastating consequences.” Guterres’s remarks came just as Hurricane Melissa was making landfall in Jamaica as one of the most powerful Atlantic basin storms in recorded history. And it came after a year of other grim milestones: the devastating wildfires that struck Los Angeles in January and Canada in May, lethal flash floods from Argentina to Texas and heatwaves in India and Pakistan that brought temperatures up to 49 degrees Celsius (120 degrees Fahrenheit), leading to crop failures.

What Genocide Looks Like When Silicon Valley Writes The Brochure

November 16, 2025 Ramah Kudaimi and Evan Sutton, In These Times. Strategize! Gaza, Genocide, Israel, Palestine, Silicon Valley

It’s being called the GREAT Trust. A glossy plan for Gaza’s “redevelopment” that includes solar plants, hospitals and an Elon Musk-branded “Smart Manufacturing Zone.” But, as analysts have suggested, it only works if the people of Gaza are gone. The slides leaked over a month ago to the Washington Post spell out the game plan: Gazans will be forced to choose between dubious and iniquitous “voluntary” mass relocation or “temporary housing,” while and billionaires get their branded tech playground built on ashes and bones. This is what genocide looks like when Silicon Valley writes the brochure: ethnic cleansing dressed up as innovation.

Africa’s Recent Elections: Crisis And A Continent’s Youth In Revolt

November 14, 2025 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Cameroon, Côte d’Ivoire, Democracy, Dictatorship, Elections, Neocolonialism, Neoliberalism, Political repression, Tanzania, US Imperialism

The past few months have seen three elections across Africa, in Tanzania, Cameroon, and Côte d’Ivoire. Each exposed a deepening democratic crisis on the continent. While the ballot boxes were filled and the slogans of “stability” and “unity” were loudly proclaimed, the underlying reality was very different; repression, exclusion, and a profound disconnect between the political class and the masses, especially youth. In all three cases, aging leaders clung to power through electoral processes that were anything but democratic.
