In Defense Of Abolition

September 24, 2026 Tempest National Committee, Counter Punch. Strategize! Abolition, Democrats, George Floyd, Liberal class, Police abuse, Rebellion2020

Six years ago, the racist police murder of George Floyd sparked the biggest uprising in the history of the United States. Across the country, over 26 million people poured into the streets for months in a mass multiracial movement against the police and jails that enforce U.S. capitalism’s class and social inequalities. Calls to defund and abolish the police emerged as organic demands of the movement. The burning down of a Minneapolis police precinct proved more popular than both presidential candidates. Faced with a profound crisis of legitimacy, the two capitalist parties each in their own way launched a counteroffensive to shore up and expand the police state at the core of our bourgeois democracy.

The Path Black To Socialism: Dispatches From The Socialism Conference

September 11, 2026 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Black Liberation, Democrats, Liberal class, Socialism

The state of what is characterized as the “Left” in the U.S. can only be described as shambolic. At a time when there have been key interventions of the Democrats, showcased by recent electoral victories over candidates representing the establishment wing of the party by candidates flying the banner of the so-called Democratic Socialists of America, the U.S. “Left” remains largely unmoored and, in far too many cases, undefined. Worse yet, certain elements of the U.S. “Left” contain and transmit unprincipled politics that uphold aspects of neoliberalism, U.S. imperialism and certainly paternalism and white “supremacy” ideology.

Gloria Steinem And The Women’s Movement She Represented

September 8, 2026 Monica Moorehead, Workers World. Educate! Black feminism, Feminism, Gloria Steinem, Liberal class, Racism

The passing of Gloria Steinem at age 92 on Sept. 2 evokes positive and negative views of what her legacy means for the modern-day women’s movement in the U.S., ignited in the early 1970s. She was the face of this mass movement, which helped to shine a bright light on sexist attitudes and policies that continue to permeate every aspect of this male-dominated society. Today this is appropriately referred to in a broader understanding as gender oppression. Feminism helped to define this important period of mass struggle.

Exposed: How The CIA Manipulates Public Opinion

September 7, 2026 Ben Norton, Geopolitical Economy Report. Resistance Report CIA, Gloria Steinem, Liberal class, Propaganda

Liberal feminist icon Gloria Steinem, a close ally of warmonger Hillary Clinton, has passed away at age 92. What many people don't know is that she was a CIA agent. Ben Norton explains how the CIA has cultivated a pro-imperialist, anti-communist "compatible left", who spread propaganda portraying the US empire as a "progressive" force, while the USA oppresses the Global South, waging nonstop wars and organizing countless coups d'etat.

White Supremacy And Climate Change: A Sinister Symbiosis

August 21, 2026 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Climate Movement, Liberal class, Racism, White Supremacy

This July was the second warmest on record and tens of thousands of Europeans have died this summer from complications associated with exposure to extreme heat. Climate change still ranks as low as 15th on what U.S. voters consider a key issue. Some years ago , Seattle-based journalist Charles Mudede wrote a piece entitled, “The Fact is Nothing is Going to be Done About Climate Change Until it Kills Lots of white People.” Mudede’s overall premise associates the lack of climate action with the fact that white lives are not as directly impacted by the climate crisis.

A Rethinking Of Everything Altogether

April 28, 2026 Workshops4Gaza, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! American Left, Liberal class, Palestine, United States

We sat down to talk with Em Cohen, whose meta-level critiques of general movement strategy and tactics we’ve deeply appreciated, and felt it would be valuable to delve into further. While Em frequently writes about Judaism and Zionism through the framework of “philosemitism,” in this conversation we chose to focus on a question that has been on many people’s minds: why hasn’t the so-called u.s. left, despite all of the efforts made over the last two years, been able to meaningfully intervene in a live-streamed genocide?

No Kings In America, Real Resistance In Rome

April 6, 2026 Michael Leonardi, Counter Punch. Strategize! Antiwar Movement, Democrats, Italy, Liberal class, No Kings, US Empire

The “No Kings” slogan sounded promising when it exploded across the United States in 2025: a mass rejection of authoritarianism, unchecked executive power, and the cult of the strongman. But like so many liberal-led mobilizations in the Trump era, the U.S. version has revealed itself as carefully managed theater — heavy on performative outrage, light on principle, and deliberately blind to two of the greatest crimes of our time: Israel’s genocide in Gaza and the illegal U.S.-Israeli war on Iran. The contrast with the Italian “No Kings and Their Wars” mobilization in Rome could not be starker.

How Liberals Support Trump’s War Against Iran

March 5, 2026 Margaret Kimberley, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Iran, Liberal class, Wars and Militarism, West Asia

The plan to destroy the Islamic Republic of Iran has been the settled U.S. policy ever since that state was founded in 1979. In the U.S., democrats and republicans alike have embarked on plans for assassinations, crushing sanctions, frozen funds, cyber war, and military attack. Even the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), popularly known as the “Iran deal” signed by Barack Obama in 2015, was an effort to strengthen those Iranians who were more amenable to being within the U.S. orbit. Its signing was followed by military assistance for Iran’s enemies in Saudi Arabia to carry out a war against Yemen and a regime change effort against Iran’s ally, Syria, which ultimately succeeded in 2024.

The Youth Movement In A Post-Growth World

February 24, 2026 Adam Ramdani, Resilience. Strategize! climate crisis, Liberal class, Radicalism, Youth Activism

Bringing about alternatives to our capitalist growth system at the speed and scale needed is no easy task. The herculean work to develop transformative worldviews, including theories toward a steady state economy, is ongoing and increasingly cross-sectoral. At the core of this endeavor is the recognition that we cannot implement alternatives to growth capitalism without first addressing cultural and social dynamics deeply rooted in colonialism and cultural appropriation. In this context, youth movements, particularly those focusing on environmental justice, have led the way for many.

Mamdani Will Follow The Path Of AOC, Bernie, And Brandon Johnson

November 13, 2025 Stansfield Smith, Popular Resistance. Strategize! Bernie Sanders, Democrats, Liberal class, Zohran Mamdani

The disenfranchised, cast aside people of the US find hope when an AOC, Brandon Johnson, Mamdani and Bernie Sanders campaigns and wins public office. These campaigns overcame corporate backed opponents, relying on people power not corporate financing, organizing many thousands of our fellow working people to participate. Yet, possessing public office does not change the economic and class structure of this country, where the real ruling power lies. Our country’s system, on the local, state, and national level, is a government of the rich, by the rich, and for the rich.

White Power

September 18, 2025 Margaret Kimberley, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Donald Trump, Liberal class, US Imperialism, White Supremacy

Donald Trump and officials in his administration have dispensed with even the appearance of established niceties in their quest to realize a vision of making white people and his concept of power ascendant throughout this country and the world. White power and brute force are their priorities – and any other considerations and even common sense take a back seat. If farmers who voted for Trump can’t find workers because of his immigration crackdown, so be it. His animus towards undocumented people is so great that he shoved some of his supporters under the bus and into bankruptcy. Lest anyone forget, it was the very conservative Ronald Reagan who enacted an amnesty for undocumented people in order to ensure a plentiful labor force for agriculture and other industries that are dependent upon immigrant labor.

What Do You Fear The Far Right Will Do That You Have Not Already Done?

August 29, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research. Educate! Austerity, Capitalism, Liberal class, Neoliberalism, Right wing extremism, Social Democrats, Wars and Militarism

On 12 August, Samar Abu Elouf, who won the 2025 World Press Photo of the Year for the picture above, posted on her Instagram account that her son’s close friend Sami Shukour had been killed while he ‘went to look for flour to feed himself and his family’. Samar had taken Sami’s graduation photographs just before the genocide began in October 2023. Sami’s family owns one of the most famous companies in Palestine, which made halawa with tahini. ‘Among the best in Gaza’, Samar wrote. Sami, she added, ‘was killed under a hail of bullets; the sound was very terrifying… We are not just numbers; each one of us is a story’. We have now entered the last quarter of 2025, the days galloping rapidly toward another year.

Capitalism Is Feeding The Far Right In East And West Europe

June 23, 2025 Ana Vracar, People's Dispatch. Educate! Capitalism, European Union (EU), Far Right, Fascism, Liberal class

“If capitalism doesn’t resolve the crisis, people might remember socialism,” reflected Gyula Thürmer of the Hungarian Workers’ Party during a discussion on the far right in Europe. He was speaking at the Fascism Back in Europe? conference, organized by the Zetkin Forum in Berlin from June 20-22. His comment encapsulated one of the lingering themes of the conference: how the economic crisis, corporate domination, and historical revisionism are fueling the rise of authoritarian and far-right forces across both Eastern and Western Europe. In addition to Thürmer, speakers at the conference such as Vladimir Bortun, Jelena Đureinović, and Florian Nowicki traced how decades of austerity, deindustrialization, and the dominance of international capital have devastated working-class communities in Eastern Europe, creating fertile ground for nationalist, authoritarian politics.

Human Rights Watch Outflanks Trump

May 5, 2025 Roger D. Harris, Popular Resistance. Educate! Human Rights Watch, Liberal class, Trump Administration, US Sanctions, Venezuela

It’s been over 100 days since Donald Trump’s return to the presidency. Most NGOs to the right of the Heritage Foundation are alarmed about his confrontational international posture and related erosion of the rule of law. Human Rights Watch (HRW), a supposedly liberal organization, is also concerned. But their problem is that the president hasn’t gone far enough – at least in the case of Venezuela. HRW’s latest report on Venezuela calls for intensified illegal measures that cause misery and death, outflanking Trump from the right. At issue for HRW is last July’s Venezuelan presidential election that saw Nicolás Maduro declared the winner.

Trumpland

May 4, 2025 Chris Hedges, Scheer Post. Educate! Christian Fascism, Donald Trump, Fascists, Liberal class, Liberal Media, Media, Propaganda, Zionism

The Christian fascists and oligarchs gleefully handing Donald Trump his sharpie and executive orders are not making war on the deep state, the radical left or to protect us from “antisemites.” They are making war on verifiable fact, the rule of law and the transparency and accountability that is only possible with a free press, the right to dissent, a vibrant culture and a separation of powers, including an independent judiciary. All of these pillars of an open society, as I detail in my book “Death of the Liberal Class,” were degraded long before Trump. The press, including public broadcasting, academia, the Democratic Party, a corporatized and banal culture, a judiciary that serves the billionaire class and a Congress bought by lobbyists, have been disemboweled.
