Trump’s attack on Black History is an attempt to roll back the gains achieved by decades of organized struggle.
These attacks are designed to erase our memory of militant Black social movements, and to chill political dissent toward his racist policies.

🗣IMMIGRANTS ARE WORKERS, NOT CRIMINALS!
Trump officials and right wing media are slandering the character of Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, a Maryland father and union apprentice wrongfully deported to El Salvador’s notorious mega-prison CECOT – based on the false narrative that all immigrants are criminals.
We shouldn’t be fooled by the smears against Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s character to paint him, wrongly, as a criminal worthy of having been deported.
But even more, we cannot fall victim to the divide-and-conquer tactic being waged by the Trump administration in order to justify a war on immigrant communities.

🇨🇺On the 64th anniversary of the Bay of Pigs — the first defeat of U.S. imperialism — we remember the historic significance this victory holds not just for the people of Cuba, but the entirety of the oppressed throughout Latin America and the world.
“In less than 72 hours, the Cuban people not only proved to the world that a small sovereign nation could defend itself against the biggest military power in the world, but that it could do so while declaring itself a socialist revolution in the process.”

🇭🇹FRANCE MUST COMPENSATE HAITI!
April 17, 2025 marked two centuries since one of the most unjust episodes in modern history: the forced collection of an illegitimate debt that France imposed on Haiti as a condition for recognizing its independence.
Amid an unprecedented humanitarian and political crisis in Haiti, social organizations, political parties, and human rights defenders from Latin America and the Caribbean have submitted letters to French embassies demanding historical reparations. The demand seeks not only economic justice, but also recognition of a colonial crime that has left Haiti in a situation of extreme vulnerability.
