On the second and final day of the crucial appeal permission hearing for Julian Assange, the US repeated long-debunked and discredited theories and allegations.

#PeoplesHistory | February 22 marks the anniversary of the 1943 execution of three young leaders of the anti-fascist White Rose resistance in Nazi Germany—Sophie Scholl, her brother Hans, and their friend Christoph Probst.

As students at the University of Munich, they helped anonymously distribute leaflets condemning Hitler's regime and calling for peaceful action against the government's atrocities. When caught distributing pamphlets on campus, the three were quickly tried and convicted of treason. The execution of the young students at the hands of the Nazis made them martyrs and symbols of moral courage in the face of violent, fascist authoritarianism.

#PeoplesHistory | On this day, we remember the legacy of W.E.B. Du Bois, whose groundbreaking research and writing exposed the oppressive links between racism, economic exploitation, and imperialism.

Du Bois was a courageous activist for socialism, believing it was the only path to racial justice and true liberation for all people. His Marxist analysis and commitment to solidarity continues to inspire movements to this day.

Aaron Bushnell stated: "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 at the hands of their colonizers, it is not extreme at all."
