This piece about border crossing to sell plasma also digs into the state of Mexican labor, and its relationship to populism in Mexico, which conditions a great deal of what is politically possible in North America.
"Despite the near-complete takeover of Mexico’s electoral realm by Morena’s populists, the labor movement has failed to spread apace. For many reasons, it seems, the new labor insurgency has been unable to become a tangible alternative to the border crossing’s jagged offerings."

"The return to work and subsequent repression allowed leaders to seek political solutions as representatives of the movement, without the full mobilization of the movement itself."

Everyone is worried about data centers. But what are they? Why are they a problem? And where in the Bay are they being built? Here's our primer on AI data centers — the material basis of the tech oligarchy's wealth and power.

All along the US-Mexico border, workers cross checkpoints after their shifts in sweatshop factories to donate plasma to U.S. corporations, feeding the most profitable part of a global plasma industry.

“In France in the early 1970s, immigrant workers and radical activists collaborated in several localized fights that threaded a resolute internationalism with a keen sense of the basics of organizing for collective action.”

A must-read investigation into a big fight in NYC around public housing. It is a working-class struggle that socialists ought to try and understand; doing so will require relaxing some of the usual factional battle lines that define the movement during internal election season.
A tenacious group of tenants is fighting a teardown plan in one of Manhattan's most desirable neighborhoods that could spell the end of public housing as we know it? I wrote for @newrepublic about their struggle and the fate of government-run homes in the US.

I have just published a piece that is very important to me. It's about why so many "progressives" and people on "the left" are lying to us right now about crime, safety, and repression, and what we should be doing instead. equalityalec.substack.com/p/why-is-every…

New article from me: “Livorno’s Dockworkers Are Learning How to Jam the War Machine”
“‘If a ship is delayed by one day, the delays pile up, and a logistics mechanism breaks,” Ceraolo said. “It’s a political signal, but also economic damage.’”

I wrote this about the student protests in Serbia at the beginning of last year, for @NewLeftReview Sidecar. Re-sharing because a few people have asked about the background and because it's my favorite thing I wrote about the protests newleftreview.org/sidecar/posts/…

Lula will be hamstrung by a most right-wing congress. And the yawning gulf between the official left and significant parts of the working class is likely to grow unless new collective forms are developed, new solidarities practiced.

Here and elsewhere, this will prove to be a temporary reprieve if the project for real transformation does not deepen. The politics of conciliation will brings us back to the brink, again and again.

I was happy to lend some posts and argumentative verve to the World 2 Win slate, and I would be honored to be a faithful delegate, but Tiff and Madi rock if you’re looking for someone else to elect in Flatbush.

"The union’s greatest strength is in a mobilized rank and file that defends social justice and union democracy. And we need this power to defeat the juggernaut that threatens all we value. . . .Education workers can create the unions we need to win against the Right."
This DC teachers' write-up about leveraging grievances for collective action "illuminates the converges of what are often cast as incompatible goals: defending the public good, winning members' rights as workers, and democratizing our unions."

@newrepublic Across the country, recent conversions of public housing have led to too many bad renovations and failed relocations to ignore. In NYC, independent analysis finds that private management has increased eviction rates and created poor living conditions for many tenants.

@newrepublic Anti-demolition tenants describe a process by NYCHA and partners riddled with deceptions, disregard for their input, and hardball tactics to relocate seniors. They see the plan as continuing a history of broken promises and botched public housing rebuilds in gentrifying areas.
