I really appreciate this call for a fully inclusive housing agenda, since pro-housing activism is so often siloed.

Yep, spot on. This happened on Mississippi Ave., basically the heart of Portland’s formerly-Black, now-gentrified/mostly white neighborhoods. For more on the history of this area, I absolutely recommend Dr. Karen Gibson’s “Bleeding Albina,” one of the best looks at gentrification in Portland.

Portlander who was at the August 4th anti-fascist demonstration here. So glad to know that, in addition to attacking anti-fascist Portlanders while protecting alt-right yahoos and their more transparently fascist friends who trucked themselves in from all over the country, the Portland Police decided to sit on…

There are already mass graves of immigrants on the US/Mexico border:

This is some primo Poe’s Law shit, man.

I work as a union organizer partially representing public-sector members, and one of the interesting side effects of the Janus ruling is that we’ve been getting more calls from unorganized workers seeking the protection of a union.

It’s always strange to me that right-wingers and centrist liberals put ANTIFA in all-caps like it’s some sort of acronym. It’s almost as weird as treating antifa like an organization - as if someone was handing out membership cards.

Portland Police straight-up lied in public about antifascists having weapons on August 4th. When someone pointed out that almost every weapon they confiscated had a Confederate flag or an image of Pepe the frog, the police response was “antifa must have planted those.”
