Big, Glitzy Marches Are Not Movements

" The moral and political arc of movements for social justice is also very, very long. And this is why it is important to think beyond the march, “the speech,” the spectacle. To understand August 28, 1963 is to understand the entire era. It requires following those movements that fall outside the spotlight, the movements organized and led by the very women who were excluded from the mic on that incredibly hot and humid Washington afternoon. The work of social movements is not always sexy, nor is it necessarily inspiring. But they are the engines for change and the incubators of new dreams."

Avaaz: Imperialist Pimps of Militarism, Protectors of the Oligarchy, Trusted Facilitators of War | Part I

"The Ivy League bourgeoisie who sit at the helm of the non-profit industrial complex will one day be known simply as charismatic architects of death. Funded by the ruling class oligarchy, the role they serve for their funders is not unlike that of corporate media. Yet, it appears that global society is paralyzed in a collective hypnosis – rejecting universal social interests, thus rejecting reason, to instead fall in line with the position of the powerful minority that has seized control, a minority that systematically favours corporate interests."

WATCH: The FBI War on Tupac Shakur and Black Leaders by John Potash

"The FBI War on Tupac Shakur and Black Leaders contains a wealth of names, dates and events detailing the use of COINTELPRO style tactics by the FBI against two generations of leftist activists and political rap artists. Based on 12 years of research; sources include over 100 interviews, FOIA-released CIA and FBI documents, court transcripts, and many mainstream media outlets. The FBI War on Tupac Shakurpresents evidence that U.S. Intelligence employed similar tactics to assassinate Tupac Shakur, Robert F. Kennedy, environmentalist Judi Bari, and Filberto Ojeda Rios. Plus additional material including how the FBI deputized 23,000 corporate executives, the Intelligence targeting of author Richard Wright and evidence of police intelligence cover-up around Jam Master Jay's murder. The author quotes CIA and FBI whistleblowers who describe the agencies' continued COINTELPRO activity, particularly against the black left. Of special interest in the author's analysis of the control of US Intelligence over media and culture." - AK PRESS
