LA's War on Public Housing: An Introduction Here is the first of 10 articles on the demolition and privatization of public housing in LA. Parts 1 and 2 are published today, with the rest coming throughout the week. knock-la.com/los-angeles-wa…
ICE is wrecking our communities, kidnapping our friends and family, and devastating the lives of working class Angelenos. Our political class hasn't done enough to respond to the needs of tenants, immigrants, and workers. L.A. needs an eviction moratorium - NOW!
🚨 Israeli interception and possible attack of the Handala Freedom Flotilla in international waters 🚨
BREAKING: ALL communications with #Handala's crew have been JAMMED. We are losing contact with our crew, and there are multiple drones near the vessel. Keep your eyes on the #FreedomFlotilla tracker. Tag & message your governments & elected officials! freedomflotilla.org/ffc-tracker/
We’re on the last Stretch to Gaza 🇵🇸‼️ 2 days away! Keep all eyes on the #Handala Keep us safe! ✊🏽
I think it’s safe to say that anyone in the Biden administration opposed to the forced starvation of Gaza planned and implemented on their watch, up to and including the Vice President, would have said something by now
That is 600,000 people!
#BREAKING One-third of Gaza's population has not eaten in several days, WFP report shows
🧵The Israeli army has committed one of its most heinous massacres against starving civilians waiting for humanitarian aid in northern #Gaza. The army ordered the civilians to approach aid trucks with their hands raised and then opened fire on them without provocation
Seriously what do we do?? We’ve protested, boycotted, campaigned, donated, written articles, pressured our government & institutions We’re on the streets We’re loud We’re persistent NOTHING is working! People are dying NOW. WHAT DO WE DO???

Israel is starving Gaza to death, it’s widely reported in the Western press, and it doesn’t seem like the “civilized” world is doing fuck all about it
I know the 2024 Dem pitch for Gaza was 10% less genocide but Trump’s been in office 6 mo’s, and accelerated the genocide for four, and the two most powerful Dems, Schumer and Jeffries haven’t issued a single criticism of Trump’s Gaza policy. Neither has Harris, Biden or Obama.
You know the situation is dire if the New York Times is using the active voice when describing a murder.
Breaking News: Israeli troops killed more than 60 Palestinians after crowds gathered near a border crossing where aid trucks enter, Gaza officials said. nyti.ms/3GRuuTp
Oh wow another Barak Ravid “scoop” about how Fuming/Deeply Concerned the president over Netanyahu! Where have I seen this one before
UNRWA has enough food for the entire population of #Gaza for over three months stockpiled in warehouses–including this one in Al Arish, Egypt–awaiting entry. The supplies are available. The systems are in place. Open the gates, lift the siege, allow UNRWA to do its work and…
RIP BENITO THE RECLAIMER LONG LIVE BENITO THE TREEMAN
RIP BENITO “With deep love, respect, and admiration, we mourn the heartbreaking loss of our beloved Reclaimer, Benito Flores… We hold the Housing Authority of the City of LA (HACLA), Caltrans, & LASD responsible for Benito's unnecessary and preventable death.”
We unequivocally reject this line of argument from AOC, as should the broader Palestine movement and the Left. Israel is able to continue its genocide unabated precisely because of the endless flow of both offensive and defensive weaponry to its arsenal. That is because every…
Marjorie Taylor Greene’s amendment does nothing to cut off offensive aid to Israel nor end the flow of US munitions being used in Gaza. Of course I voted against it. What it does do is cut off defensive Iron Dome capacities while allowing the actual bombs killing Palestinians to…
Now more than ever we need to globalize the intifada
Long live the tenants union
TEN YEARS OF THE L.A. TENANTS UNION On July 18 2015 we founded the union at a fire station in Hollywood. Here's to ten more years of protests, court wins, meetings, rent strikes, carne asadas, ICE piñatas, and brass bands in the streets - toward the world we need.

EXPOSED: A new dossier from @wawog_now reveals material and ideological ties between Israel and journalists, editors, and executives of The New York Times. Whether serving in the IOF or taking money from pro-Israel consultancies, the staff at the Times is compromised.
