We've uploaded a handbill from our friends at @IGD_News explaining why it is important for people to respect each other's autonomy in demonstrations.

Print these out and distribute them this evening. We need a movement that makes space for everyone.

This is a good time to read "Stonewall Means Riot Right Now," exploring what today's movements to defend trans youth and abortion access can learn from the Stonewall riots and the George Floyd uprising.

To Defend Abortion Access, Take the Offensive 🏴

https://cwc.im/DefendAbortionAccess

What can direct action offer the fight for reproductive freedom? A tentative effort to discuss grassroots strategies for resisting the criminalization of abortion.

It is becoming widely understood that the shot callers in the Democratic Party have no intention to stick their necks out to preserve abortion access. For the most cynical of the Democratic politicians, the overturning of Roe v. Wade represents an opportunity to improve their job security by the changing the subject back to electoral politics once again. Yet a coherent grassroots strategy for resisting the criminalization of abortion has yet to emerge. Let’s talk about what such a strategy might entail.

This is especially pressing as today’s Supreme Court is not finished reshaping the legal landscape. They may continue to hand down decisions like the overturning of Roe v. Wade for years or even decades to come.

Ecuador: General Strike, Take Two

Two and a half years after an uprising toppled the government, people are in the streets for another general strike. What does it mean that they have to fight this battle all over again so soon after that historic victory?

During the 2019 revolt, we interviewed a comrade in the front lines to learn about the dynamics of the revolt in the Ecuadorian capital and the self-management and popular power practices of the “Quito Commune.” Two and a half years later, we reached out to him again.

Paro Nacional in Equador: un nuovo “estallido”?

https://crimethinc.com/2022/06/29/paro-nacional-in-equador-un-nuovo-estallido

Nell’ottobre 2019 c’è stata una straordinaria rivolta indigena e popolare in Ecuador che, dopo 12 giorni e con un bilancio di 11 morti, riuscì a cancellare un pacchetto di misure neoliberiste imposte dal FMI, tra cui la cancellazione di un sussidio sul prezzo del carburante. In questo giugno del 2022, lo sciopero generale e le proteste di piazza in Ecuador entrano nella terza settimana, con più di 15 giorni del cosiddetto Paro Nacional, sempre guidato dai movimenti indigeni, sempre contro le politiche del FMI e l’aumento del prezzo del carburante.

Ecuador: Paro Nacional, Segunda Parte

¿Qué pasó en los últimos dos años y medio en el Ecuador para que, después de una pandemia y elecciones presidenciales, se volviera al punto de partida?

Equador: Paro Nacional, Parte Dois
Dois Anos e Meio Depois, Outro Levante Abala o País

O que significa que as pessoas no Equador tenham que lutar essa batalha novamente logo após uma vitória histórica? Essa força se espalhará pela América Latina?

To our joy, the workers at https://kissradio.ca are still playing "Killing in the Name of" on permanent repeat, many hours running, reportedly to protest the firing of two DJs.

If this is what it seems to be, it's a perfect demonstration of the strategy described on our poster, "When they fire you, quit":

"Quit playing by their rules. Quit counting on their system. Quit buying into their idea of happiness. Quit obeying their laws. Quit thinking you could finally get ahead if you just tried a little harder. If they could, they’d fire everyone, leaving us to push grocery carts along the sidewalk and dig in the trash for food. What’s good for business is not good for humanity. Quit letting them get away with it."

Thank you to those who gathered in Washington, DC tonight to fight for abortion access.

The cops and courts will take everything from us that we cannot defend. Build power in the streets. Build networks that are independent of all political parties.
