Kevin Zeese: The Passing Of A Warrior For Peace And Justice

By Marsha Coleman-Adebayo, Black Agenda Report. Having met Kevin Zeese during
the Occupy movement in September of 2011, by Merwin’s metric we passed
unknowing the day that had finally come for Kevin nine times. Nine times we,
(Kevin, Margaret Flowers -his loving partner, and I) were engaged in the
struggle in one way or another.  Occupy DC, Occupy the EPA, Hands Up Don’t
Shoot, Justice Mondays at the Department of Justice to name a few and lastly
only hours before his transition -- the fight to stop the desecration of Moses
African Cemetery in Bethesda, Maryland.

The Ongoing And Unjustifiable Persecution Of Julian Assange

By Andy Worthington. A hugely important struggle for press freedom is currently
taking place in the Old Bailey in London, where, on Monday, three weeks of
hearings began regarding the proposed extradition to the US of Julian Assange,
the founder of WikiLeaks. In 2010 and 2011, WikiLeaks published documents
leaked by a serving member of the US military — Bradley, now Chelsea Manning —
that exposed evidence of war crimes committed by the US and, in the case of my
particular area of expertise, Guantánamo.

'Green' Billionaires Behind Suppression Of 'Planet Of The Humans'

By Max Blumenthal, The Grayzone. It is hard to think of an American film that
provoked a greater backlash in 2020 than “Planet of the Humans.” Focused on the
theme of planetary extinction and fanciful proposals to ward it off, the
documentary was released for free on YouTube on April 21. The date was
significant not only because it was the eve of the 50th anniversary of Earth
Day, but because a global pandemic was tearing through America’s social fabric
and exposing the human toll of the country’s globalized, growth-obsessed
economic model.

Militant Protests Ongoing In Rochester

By Hannah Dickinson, Liberation News. On Sep. 2 a news conference held by Free
the People ROC and the family of Daniel T. Prude announced that Prude, a
41-year old Black man, had been killed by the Rochester Police Department on
March 30. The Prude family also released police body camera footage, obtained
through a public records request, that showed Daniel Prude naked, handcuffed
and held face down in the street while a light snow fell. Militant protests
started that day and have continued. In the video, Daniel Prude can be seen
wearing a so-called “spit-hood” that RPD placed over his head, though they
offered no clothes or even...

Assange Extradition And The War On Journalism

By Chris Hedges, ScheerPost.com. A webinar/press conference organized by the
late Kevin Zeese for PopularResistance.org streamed live on Sept. 9, 2020. The
attempt to extradite Julian Assange to the United States for prosecution is a
war against freedom of the press and our right to know. If the prosecution of
Assange under the Espionage Act occurs, it will define journalism for the 21st
Century. No journalist or publisher who exposes war crimes or corruption will
be safe.

Staff Refuse To Enter Unsafe School Building

By District 75 P352X Special Education Staff, Popular Resistance. Bronx, NY -
The special education staff of P352X, composed of five different sites
(buildings), will be coordinating a refusal to enter unsafe buildings. We have
not received inspection reports from the UFT or the DOE for all five sites.
When staff arrived on the first day, the promised PPE was not available and due
to no fault of our administration, we still did not have enough information to
have a plan for the first day back. Guidances from the department of education
change and are updated daily.

New: Simón Bolívar Institute For Peace And Solidarity Among Peoples

By César Torres, Mppre.gob.ve. Caracas, VZ - On Sunday, September 6, 205 years
since the publication of the Jamaica Letter, the Simón Bolívar Institute for
Peace and Solidarity among Peoples was inaugurated as a new space for the
research, dissemination, debate, solidarity and strengthening of international
relations. The inauguration took place via YouTube on the Institute’s Spanish
and English channels. “Our institute is formally inaugurated today, but the
truth is that it already existed. The peoples have raised their voices in favor
of Venezuela, and we at the same time have raised our voices for humankind’s
great causes,” said the President...

Lee Camp: Liberal Media Attacks Me And A Tribute To Kevin Zeese

By Lee Camp, Moment of Clarity. A liberal media criticism outlet recently
published an article where they used one of my jokes as evidence of a grand
Russian plan to subvert the 2020 US elections. Also, my memories of a great
man, lawyer, & activist -- Kevin Zeese. Rest in power.

University Of Michigan Residential Staff On Strike

By U. Michigan Residential Staff, Popular Resistance. The bottom line is our
health can’t wait. Our communities can’t wait. The University's inaction in the
face of  ResStaff’s explicit concerns and action items over the last few weeks
has made it clear that public health is not the priority. The University has
repeatedly referred to the Wolverine Culture of Care, but has not extended this
same care to us. If U of M administrators do not want to live up to the
Michigan Difference, we will be the difference ourselves. Health comes first.
ResStaff will not stand for anything less than policies and adequate resources
that reflect this priority.

Expert Tells Court, Charges Against Assange Are Unconstitutional

By Mohamed Elmaazi, Sputnik News. It is immaterial whether one considers Julian
Assange to be a reporter because he was engaged in "journalistic activity" when
obtaining and publishing classified US documents, the director of the Freedom
of the Press Foundation told the court on day three of the WikiLeaks
publisher's extradition hearing. The US indictment against WikiLeaks publisher
Julian Assange represents an "unconstitutional" threat to the First Amendment
of the United States constitution and to press freedom more generally,
Professor Trevor Timm told the Old Bailey on Wednesday.

US Sanctions Targeting International Criminal Court Are An Outrage

By the International Association of Democratic Lawyers. On 2 September 2020,
U.S. Secretary of State Michael Pompeo announced the imposition of sanctions on
Prosecutor Fatou Bensouda and prosecution jurisdiction director for authorizing
such an investigation, including war crimes committed by U.S. forces, for which
U.S. officials bear responsibility. These sanctions were based on a declaration
by U.S. President Trump of a national emergency on this subject in June of
2020. The International Association of Democratic Lawyers (IADL) rejects as
outrageous these sanctions on senior prosecution officials of the
International...

DeJoy's USPS Changes Violate Federal Law

By the Constitutional Accountability Center, Popular Resistance. Before USPS
leaders may implement changes that will impact mail delivery on a substantially
nationwide basis, the law requires certain procedures to be followed.
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy, however, ignored that law, instead pushing
ahead with changes that have slowed mail delivery across America.   Removing
collection boxes. Dismantling high-speed mail sorting machines. Reducing
employee overtime pay and delivery hours. Telling 46 states and the District of
Columbia that the USPS could not guarantee timely delivery of mail-in ballots
for the November...
