The Generation That Refuses To Crawl: Gen Z Is A Class Struggle

July 23, 2026 Vijay Prashad, BreakThrough News. Educate! Class Struggle, Gen Z, India, Youth Activism

On July 20, thousands of young people attempted to march from Jantar Mantar to Parliament. They carried placards, shouted slogans, and demanded the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over repeated examination irregularities, paper leaks, cancelled tests, and the government’s refusal to accept responsibility for the devastation inflicted upon students. The Delhi Police answered them with barricades, batons, and tear gas. Some protesters were detained, while others reorganized themselves into smaller groups and continued towards Parliament.

The Billionaires Have Two Parties: An Organizer’s Review

May 12, 2026 Steve Lawton, Labor Notes. Strategize! Book Reviews, Class Struggle, Political Parties, Unions, Worker Rights and Jobs

In my 25 years as a union organizer and labor educator, my core purpose has been to help working-class people recognize and act on their own power. In that work, I’ve come to rely heavily on the writing of Les Leopold. Whether it was running workshops based on his Reversing Runaway Inequality in the lead-up to the 2016 Verizon strike, or using Wall Street’s War on Workers as a teaching text with union apprentice electricians, Leopold’s work has helped me translate complex political economics into something workers can engage with, debate, and act on.

There’s A Wave Of Attacks On The Ruling Class

April 12, 2026 J. P. Hill, New Means. Strategize! Class Struggle, Class war, Iran, Israel, Strait of Hormuz, US Hegemony, US Imperialism

People have reached a breaking point. American consumer sentiment is terrible, registering at the lowest level ever recorded this week. Gas prices just jumped more in March than they have in any month since 1967. The Iran War was historically unpopular from the beginning, and now the massive economic ripple effects are starting to hit home. And this is just the beginning. The Strait of Hormuz still isn’t open, despite a range of Trump administration lies to the contrary. That means 20-30% of the world’s oil simply isn’t moving. Fertilizer shortages will take months to hit, but they’re likely to hit upwards of 40% of U.S. farmers.

The State Is Escalating Charges Against Protesters

March 13, 2026 Blanca Missé, Truthout. Strategize! Anti-ICE, Class Struggle, Immigrant Rights, Lawfare, Unions

On July 10, 2025, as federal agents stormed cannabis farms in Ventura County, California, community members rushed to protest what they saw as yet another sweeping Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raid. Among them was Jonathan Caravello, a 37-year-old philosophy lecturer at California State University Channel Islands. Today, he faces a federal felony charge that could send him to prison for up to 20 years. At a time when anti-immigrant enforcement is intensifying and protest is increasingly reframed as criminal conspiracy, Caravello’s prosecution poses a strategic question: Will unions and solidarity movements remain defensive and fragmented, or will they organize a public campaign that makes repression politically costly?

A Final Solution To The Human Surplus Problem

February 20, 2026 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Class Struggle, climate crisis, Environment, EPA, Human Rights, Trump Administration

President Trump’s Environmental “Protection” Agency (EPA) continues its profound and outright assault on public health and, in the process, the People(s)-Centered Human Rights (PCHRs) of U.S residents. We recently discussed the impacts of EPA’s recent decision to value human life at zero dollars, yet, the agency’s more recent decision to vacate the endangerment finding confirms that Trump’s EPA is willing to do everything in its power to prioritize corporate profits and capital over the health, safety, and welfare of the general public and especially that of poor and working class people - and Black, Brown, and Indigenous people, specifically.

Wealth Concentration Engine: Rethinking America’s Financial Plumbing

January 28, 2026 Ellen Brown, Scheer Post. Create! Big Banks, Class Struggle, Public Banks, Wealth redistribution

A Jan. 17 article on Quartz Markets by Catherine Baab reports that JPMorgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, Wells Fargo, Citigroup and Bank of America returned nearly all of their 2025 profits to shareholders. Goldman Sachs returned $16.78 billion on $17.18 billion in earnings, meaning 97.7% of its earnings went to shareholders. Wells Fargo, Citigroup, JPMorgan, and Bank of America collectively returned tens of billions more. Across the six largest banks, roughly $100 billion flowed to shareholders in a single year. Banks enjoy a long list of public privileges — federally guaranteed deposits, public charters allowing them to create deposits on their books as loans, access to the Fed’s discount window for emergency credit, and federal bailouts when they get into serious trouble.

US Inequality Is Way Past Revolution Time

November 14, 2025 Lee Camp, Substack. Educate! Capitalism, Children, Class Struggle, Inequality, Poverty

One would think that perhaps the greatest benefit of being a cog in the wheel of a bloodthirsty, predatory, wholly unaccountable, rapacious global empire is being rich. Not rich in an Elon Musk / Monopoly Guy kinda way but rich in a not languishing in poverty kinda way. …But this is not true. A large percentage of Americans never get to touch the spoils of hegemony. “Over 40% of the U.S. population—including 48.9% of children—is considered poor or low income.” You read that right. According to a new Oxfam report, half of all American children live in poor or low-income homes. …HALF.

Basis For Climate And Environmental Liberation

November 7, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Big Greens, Class Struggle, climate crisis, Climate Justice, Environment, Environmental Justice, History, Liberation

In the last five years, certain environmental justice groups and their agents have enjoyed the selective largesse of mainstream environmental groups and governmental agencies at the federal and State level. On the one hand this has increased the ubiquity of environmental justice, at least rhetorically, as well as the operating budgets for select environmental justice organizations. But we must ask ourselves what was/is the cost for certain environmental justice organizations to enjoy being selected and hand picked as the “leading” groups and primary spokespeople for the environmental justice movement? And, equally important, what effects do these “selections” have on the larger environmental justice movement, especially those community-based, grassroots organizations that are accountable to the poorest and most polluted communities in the nation and, in some cases, as the case with Cancer Alley in Louisiana, the entire world?

A Strategy To Stop The Flow Of Our Money To Billionaires

October 17, 2025 Sare Myklebust and Saqib Bhatti, In These Times. Strategize! Class Struggle, Labor Movement, Mass Movement, Movements, Unions

In the United States, we are living through a time of crisis. We’re witnessing a U.S.-backed genocide as Palestinian children are being starved. Our government is disappearing immigrants and U.S. citizens alike because of the color of their skin and their willingness to speak truth to power. Millions lack basic healthcare, companies are kicking families out of their homes and most of us are paid barely enough to survive. We’re living on the edge, terrified and traumatized. Meanwhile, the perpetrators of this unbearable status quo — billionaires, their companies and the government structures they now control — are using our money to fund these injustices while building their fortunes.

Dockworkers Across Europe Meet To Call A General Strike For Gaza

In a union hall overlooking the sea and stacks of shipping containers in the Port of Genoa, delegations of dockworkers from both sides of the Mediterranean gathered — answering the call of their colleagues in Genoa — for an international assembly. The objective: to organize against the genocide in Palestine and Israel’s rearmament, building on the day of strikes and mobilizations that shook Italy on September 22. It was with emotion that Giovanni Ceravolo, a leader in the Unione Sindacale di Base (USB) for the port of Livorno, concluded this international meeting: We will be able to call for a first day of Europe-wide mobilization against weapons, against genocide, against rearmament. All this embodies our future tasks. The assemblies that brought us together these two days are the first step.

Moroccans Take To The Streets In Largest Protests In Years

Demonstrations swept through 11 cities in Morocco over the weekend, with thousands protesting the government’s corruption and expenditure policies. The government has been slammed for prioritizing international sporting events over basic public services, including health care, education, and employment. Although anti-government protests calling for reform have been on the rise in the Maghreb nation during the past few months, the current rallies are marked by participation of groups representing a wide spectrum of social and political backgrounds, and from different ages. The voices of students blended together with those of trade unionists, and families, forming a holistic protest scene, and reflecting a unifying spirit. This in turn confirms that daily social justice concerns are not confined to a single group, but is rather a popular demand. However, young “leaderless” organizers calling themselves the Gen Z 212, are believed to have organized the nationwide protests via social media networks.

Financing Our Own Destruction

September 30, 2025 Rebecca Burns, In These Times. Strategize! Class Struggle, Common Good, Pensions, Worker Rights and Jobs

Billionaire private equity executive Antonio Gracias has had a busy year. In March, as part of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Gracias was sent in search of supposed fraud at the Social Security Administration. A few weeks later — at a rally with his longtime friend and then-head of DOGE, Elon Musk — Gracias claimed to have found it. Echoing a right-wing conspiracy theory, Gracias said an increase in Social Security numbers assigned to noncitizens looked like a move to “import voters.” In fact, eligible non-citizens are routinely assigned Social Security numbers as part of the federal work authorization process, but they cannot vote. Undocumented immigrants pay billions into Social Security each year but cannot receive benefits.

‘The Billionaires Don’t Give A Flying F—K About Us!’

Twenty-one-year-old Chloe Jacobs is a fourth generation Chelsea resident. Her grandparents moved into Penn South during the 1960s when the west side neighborhood was still developing as a cozy enclave where poor and working class New Yorkers could thrive and raise their kids in peace. Today, however, Jacobs knows all that could very well end with her because the billionaire developers behind the massive Hudson Yards project want what the residents of Chelsea have. “It is so blatantly obvious that all this project is, is to rid Chelsea of poor people,” Jacobs told Community Board 4’s Land Use Committee on Tuesday night.

Thousands of communities across the country are taking a stand on Labor Day. Workers will be in the streets, outside the offices of corporate executives, and at congressional offices. Together they will demand a country that puts workers over billionaires.

America For Sale! Everything Must Go!

July 2, 2025 Hamilton Nolan, In These Times. Educate! Big Beautiful Bill, Class Struggle, Congress, Donald Trump, Failed State, Finance and the Economy, Privatization, Republican Party

The U.S. government has fallen into the hands of people who lack proper metaphors; all they know is business. The nation should be “run like a business” according to these unimaginative suits among the GOP, who haven’t read or studied enough to consider how the government might be run like anything else. The problem with this thinking is it will, by inevitably following the profit motive, lead to a terminal phase. With the House passage of President Donald Trump’s budget legislation “One Big Beautiful Bill,” the United States has reached the private equity looting stage of the metaphor. The logic of this scheme will collapse, but it might bring us all down with it.
