Don’t Be Fooled: The Official Unemployment Numbers Are a Lie

A dive into the murky waters of unemployment to see the designed failings of a system that purposefully miscounts, disaggregates and excludes millions of people.

Don’t Be Fooled: The Official Unemployment Numbers Are a Lie

The official unemployment rate now stands at 6.7%. But that doesn't feel right, does it? Unless you live in a gated community, the reality on the ground feels more dire and more destitute. Behind that cheery 6.7% stand millions of uncounted people – uncounted by

Despite What You Heard, There Was No Peaceful Transition

Anyone trying to find the edges of the U.S. Overton Window right now must feel like they're tracing an amateur rendition of an early Picasso. After a summer spent chanting “defund the police,” self-identifying progressives applaud the pouring of some 25,000 troops and

No Socialist Paradise: Sweden’s COVID-19 Response Is Nothing to Envy

No Socialist Paradise: Sweden’s COVID-19 Response Is Nothing to Envy

From Djurgården, I walk along the water on Strandvägen – a rising fall whips in a determined wind across the water, slicing at remnants of summer and carving pathways around centuries-old buildings. Colors like Nordic interior design catalogs look like they've been stirred among clouds – a muted vibrance that evokes a calm and stoic

Struggle Theater: Don’t Let Theatrics Shroud the Reality of Systemic Oppression

America’s power brokers are hoping murals, kente cloth, and a series of half-baked legislative reforms will appease activists into giving up the fight for real change.

Struggle Theater: Don’t Let Theatrics Shroud the Reality of Systemic Oppression

The crowd cheered. I hustled to slide the fresh battery into place, snap the latch closed, click on, and survey the scene. On their knees, protestors in front of the newly erected fence applauded as a cop on the other side took a knee. Around him, other cops seemed to take no notice, shifting in their riot gear as the sun slowly dipped behind the

Surviving this Pandemic is Hard, For America’s Most Vulnerable, its Nearly Impossible

This coronavirus pandemic has laid bare the exclusion of whole subsets of the most vulnerable in our society, exemplifying the toxic mix of racism, sexism, imperialism, and capitalism that the US blends so well.

Surviving this Pandemic is Hard, For America’s Most Vulnerable, its Nearly Impossible

They talk about it as if they're doing a garbage, low budget remake of “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory,” but instead of a golden ticket, it's a $1,200 check. And instead of a magical trip through a fantasy land of candy and orange-faced crooners, it's a paltry pittance from an orange-faced fascist who held up the delivery in order to ensure

Disunited States: Government Failure to Address Coronavirus is Sparking a Mutual Aid Revolution

As state and local authorities struggle and the federal government focus on saving Wall Street, a volunteer-driven mutual aid revolution is taking hold in disenfranchised communities across America.

Disunited States: Government Failure to Address Coronavirus is Sparking a Mutual Aid Revolution

I'm not from DC, but I live here. I'm now a part of this living, breathing being that is a city. This city. It helps me to think of cities that way, even ones that I don't fully feel at home in – like a body. And I'm like a blood transfusion. I know this isn't my city, my body, but it's where my life flows now, and so I best flow with it. This body

The American People Are the True Victims of Our Latest Coup

We have more in common with the Venezuelan people than we do with our own government. From this understanding, we can build real solidarity, and defy the coups against us and our counterparts around the globe.

The American People Are the True Victims of Our Latest Coup

There's an office that you go to to overthrow a government. CIA Whistleblower John Kiriakou stands in front of a packed house in the Chavez Room at the Venezuelan Embassy. A mural of Hugo Chavez looks on from the back wall. Bookcases stand empty, a fitting sign of the bumbling idiocy of empire. The lobby has been converted into a makeshift gallery:
