“ If there's a way to turn the mobilizations that we see in No King's Day or around May Day into some kind of ongoing democratic organization, we'll be on the way to what we need, building power democratically.

“Everybody should go out and Google a book called Out Now by Fred Halstead. And if you want to see how an internal, democratically run movement made decisions at a mass level to plan mass protests. He wasn't right about everything and there were limits to that tactic of single day mass mobilizations.
But to get a sense of what a truly participatory, mass democratic movement with different political currents fighting with each other, but also then creating common cause. You can't do better than start with that book by Fred Halstead called Out Now.”

Komisch, dass die #AfD weit vor der #Union in den Umfragen ist. Dabei tut #Merz doch alles um eine billige Kopie zu sein.

Today in labor history April 29, 1899: Members of the Western Federation of Miners (WFM) seized a train, loaded it with 3,000 pounds of dynamite, and drove it into the Bunker Hill mine in Wardner, Idaho because the mine owners refused to respect their demand to hire only union men. They completely destroyed the $250,000 colliery. President McKinley responded by sending in black soldiers from Brownsville, Texas. He ordered them to round up the miners and imprison them in specially built "bullpens." From 1899 to 1901, the U.S. Army occupied most of the Coeur d'Alene mining region in Idaho. The WFM was led by Big Bill Haywood, who would go on to cofound the more radical IWW, in 1905, along with Mother Jones, Lucy Parsons, Eugene Debs, and others.
