"In moments of disaster, our communities will be abandoned by the powers that be. We must demonstrate that our ability to self-govern is better at meeting our needs than the corporations’ or state’s supposed mandate to govern. And we must not just govern under the existing structures; rather, we me must remake the shape of governance to be more democratic and ecologically responsive – from the state house to the workplace to the blocks where we live.

For too long the people who live and care for the places they call home have been intentionally dispossessed of the decision making power to govern their home. In moments of disaster this unjust power dynamic of the Extractive Economy leads to harmful, unaccountable decision making that doesn’t put the wellbeing of people and the land at the forefront of recovery. It sets up the same oppressive systems of power to lead not just the recovery efforts, but the economy and infrastructure that is built in the disaster’s wake."

Are you ready to start organizing or supporting local mutual aid disaster relief? So many emergency preparedness and response programs are being cut, at a time when disasters are on the rise and will continue to worsen indefinitely. If no one else will save us, why don't we try working together to save each other?

"Those on leave include all of the employees of a national disaster response program..."

After white supremacists repeatedly target a Black community in Ohio, the community takes appropriate measures.

Free Palestine.

Black lives matter.

Trans lives matter.

Unhoused people matter.

No human being is illegal.

Let's keep learning and practicing how to directly take care of each other, in relationship with each other, so that eventually the government will have a lot less power to harm us. Because we can't vote racism and capitalism away.

#MutualAid is #CommunitySelfDefense

If you are not prepared to defend yourself (or actively supporting those who can) and your community from these assholes, or you think that the Police WILL defend at risk communities, you are setting yourself and your people up for harm and failure.

Interview with Prof. Kehinde Andrews about recent (and not so recent) events in the UK:

I really would have been surprised if [right-wing thugs] had come through London or Birmingham. I got a WhatsApp message saying they were coming through Handsworth in Birmingham, where it’s 80% ethnic minority, and I just knew that was never going to happen.

Look, maybe they planned it and then they were cowards, but I just think they were never going to follow through. Realistically you can’t do an English Defence League march through someone else’s neighbourhood! They’d just get a kicking. Cowardice is a huge part of these British KKK types, pick people off when they feel strong, they’re not going to take on a whole community like that.

Let me add as well, and I think this is something that’s been hugely underplayed in mainstream discussions, that it’s actually because there was so much racial violence in the 1960s, 1970s, 1980s – when I was at school, we’d see National Front signs in people’s windows – precisely because of this racial violence and history, Black and Brown communities rallied together to defend themselves.

And so because there’s a history of us defending ourselves, that’s why these far-right racists aren’t going to be coming back to these predominantly Black and Brown areas, where they know they can’t win. It’s not just coincidental, it’s part of our resistance to racism in this country, and it’s a story that’s underplayed. It’s community self-defence which has stopped National Front, English Defence League and all these other incursions.

"Le documentaire est connu, malheureusement il est très lissé, tres flous et n'explique pas vrmt bien

C une porte d'entrée mais malheureusement c bcp de cliché d'approximation et de romantisme 😬

En plus le type qui a fait le docus c un fils de, un fils d'anarchistes, pas un anarchiste lui même

Lui c un petit bourgeois qui surfe sur la vie de son père pour faire cool"
