For Korean anti-imperialist organizers that organized the People’s Summit for Korea in New York City, the stakes of US militarism and escalating tensions in the Pacific region could not be higher.
Ju-Hyun Park, a lead organizer of Nodutdol for Korean Community Development, a Korean diaspora organization fighting for national liberation, told Peoples Dispatch that the struggles against US militarism in Korea “are really concerning the survival not only of the Korean people, of peace and development in East Asia, but really the future of humanity itself.”

#PeoplesHistory | 🇻🇪At the end of July 2024, the people of Venezuela rose up across the country and defeated the violent right-wing insurrection that followed the presidential elections on July 28, 2024.
Mobs of right-wing opposition supporters took to the streets and destroyed offices of PSUV, statues of national heroes and leaders of the Bolivarian Revolution, and attacked Chavistas. They claimed electoral fraud had been committed in the elections. To this day, no fraud has been proved.

#PeoplesHistory | Nela Martínez Espinosa (1912–2004) was a revolutionary, writer, and Ecuador’s first woman legislator.
From a very young age, Nela Martínez stood up against oppression. When she was 10 or 11, she joined a protest of the Indigenous farmworkers against her own father. From there, her life was an exceptional demonstration of left-wing militancy and support for the oppressed peoples of the world. She was a communist leader and militant, one of the most important figures in the Solidarity movement with Cuba, and became the first woman in Congress.
On the anniversary of her death, we remember her defiance against machismo and oppression in Ecuador, her vision to liberate women, and her fire in the fight.

US labor activist Christian Smalls, founder of the Amazon Labor Union, has been held in Israeli custody since July 26. According to a report by the Adalah legal center, Smalls is in Givon Prison and is expected to be deported on July 31. Smalls along with 21 other activists was arrested by Israeli Forces while attempting to deliver aid to Gaza. Reports from the Freedom Flotilla Coalition claim that Smalls has been subjected to beatings and brutal treatment.
Israel is obstructing the flow of humanitarian aid, such as food, into the besieged Strip, although it has begun to allow air-dropped aid. Air dropping as a method that has been widely criticized due its inefficiency and potential dangers – people in Gaza have been hurt and even killed by heavy aid pallets dropping from the sky.
