#PeoplesHistory | Today marks the 80th anniversary the US bombing of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima (August 6) and on Nagasaki (August 9).
The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was the first and only time that nuclear weapons have been used in war. They caused catastrophic loss of life, widespread devastation, and lasting health impacts on the people in the cities due to radiation exposure.
As the world enters a period of even greater stability, increased military conflict, and accumulation of nuclear weapons, remembering the reality of nuclear war is more important than ever.

A major part of the political canon of liberalism is the “sacrosanct” defense of the alternation of power. In other words, the fact that a person does not remain in power indefinitely is a sign of the vigor and health of a modern republican political system. According to this canon, the lack of alternation is usually a clear symptom of a totalitarian drift.

🇧🇫This weekend marked the 42nd anniversary of Burkinabe leader Thomas Sankara’s rise to power, a defining moment in the struggle for Pan-Africanism and against imperialism. Ousted and assassinated by colonial powers threatened by his vision of self-determination, land reform, and liberation from neocolonial rule, his legacy remains an inspiration for the revolutionary people of the world.
Today, the torch is being carried by the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), who have rejected French military presence and are breaking with the entire neocolonial order, while charting a path rooted in sovereignty, self-reliance, and Pan-African solidarity.
