South Shore DSA

Unions and local South Shore / Greater Boston Palestine groups are showing up for this and we need all hands. This action does have contradictions: some of the organizers are trying to work within the party of genocide and are not even suggesting to withhold votes for the anointed candidate. They have wisely not made any support for that S a part of the demands of the rally but an earlier petition to Dem delegates does make the "but Trump" claim. Most who I know support the demands of a ceasefire and arms embargo for sure but feel that Dems have deeply betrayed us all but especially Palestinians and other victims of Imperialism. It will not go well if people on the mic start talking S about how we have to beat Trump when the fact is the war machine will keep rolling no matter what stuffed suit they put in the oval office. It will end and we will have peace and prosperity when the workers of the world shut it down. Show up Sunday, be prepared to boo if necessary and talk it up with your comrades. No votes for genocide! Long live Palestine!

F**k Israel

Israel official says Iran war "inevitable" and US should strike now "The ultimate goal here has to be regime change in Iran," Israeli Foreign Ministry special envoy Fleur Hassan-Nahoum told Newsweek.

The weekly stand out for Palestine in Plymouth needs our help this Saturday 7/20/24 at 12:00 at Plymouth Rock. Counter Protesters from "God Bless America & Israel" are planning on showing up so all out for Palestine and to protect workers' rights to dissent from the war machine.

These are the voices of truth with billions of people around the world on their side. All the lies in the world can't stop us. As congress (including Rep. Stephen Lynch who is supposed to represent me and the people of MA while he funnels billions to the war machine) votes to condemn protests against their genocidal policies, it's time to pick a side.

Aaron Bushnell said "I am an active duty member of the United States Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide. I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest but compared to what people have been experiencing in Palestine it is not extreme at all. This is what our ruling class has decided will be normal.” His last words before taking his life were "Free Palestine".

Quincy, MA Residents: Sign the petition demanding a City Council Resolution calling for a ceasefire in Palestine linked here. You can also sign it if you are a MA resident outside of Quincy (the form has a check box for that). We are building democratic power to stop the genocide in Gaza.

Some say it's complicated but not so much. We are with the guy sitting with his hands tied behind his back, wounded and torchered but defiant, with millions on his side. We are against the guy standing over him, heavily armed and backed by a corrupt and immoral empire. Free Palestine!

Newton education workers know their power and voted 98% to strike. I spoke to many of them today and they are happy to share the struggles. I'm happy to listen because as an MTA member who has these conversations with workers in many other locals in the commonwealth, I can help build solidarity. A long time comrade who works there told me this was 10 years in the making and started when MTA members came together to form Educators for a Democratic Union to learn how to fight and bring that knowledge back to their locals. In Newton as in other workplaces it's step by step, small actions that might seem trivial but in sequence they help workers build a unified understanding of their power (see Secrets of a Successful Organizer from Labor Notes). Well over a thousand people were out today to celebrate the inevitable win with parents , students and union members from all over. This is how we win.

MTA comrades in Newton are on strike and there is a rally tomorrow, Friday 1/19 at 1:00 Newton City Hall. Also pickets will be at all 24 Newton public schools starting at 9:00am (till rally). Find out about the needed demands here: https://linktr.ee/ntaresources and show up in support!
