As the housing crisis accelerates, Democratic politicians push for sweeps and crackdowns on the houseless. On our latest podcast, we speak with long-time residents of a self-organized encampment in #Oakland that has been fighting eviction for months, as residents battle displacement, destruction of their homes, and attempts by the state to crush the poor.

We’ve survived 2022—and with it, the ebb tide following the upheavals of 2019 and 2020. Both in the United States and around the world, this has been a year of challenges and reversals. In the following overview, we revisit how we got here, explore the events of the past twelve months, and review our own efforts to contribute to movements for liberation.

We began the year with our warehouse in ashes and concluded it by getting permanently suspended from Twitter by Elon Musk—at that time the world’s richest man—at the request of a notorious pro-fascist troll. Yet in response to the fire, our comrades raised tens of thousands of dollars to support us and we were able to go right back into action; likewise, thus far, our suspension from the chief corporate social media platforms has only multiplied the number of people visiting our website and ordering our materials.

We go into 2023 ready for the next round and we hope you’ll be right there beside us.

California set to release anti-rooftop solar net metering plan

Previous drafts of the plan slashed the value of rooftop solar blaming rich solar-owning Californians for a utility cost shift to less wealthy residents. A new study by Berkeley Labs showed that middle-income and working-class Californians were by far the largest buyers of rooftop residential solar.

Frequent flying and private jets are the pinnacle of climate injustice. It is unacceptable that highly polluting flights are increasing while millions of people are already affected by the devastating consequences of climate inaction.
