Learning From UAW History And Taking Control Of Work Reductions

December 14, 2025 Nevena Pilipovic-Wengler and Andrew Bergman, Left Voice. Strategize! Capitalism, History, Job Banks, Layoffs, United Auto Workers (UAW), Worker Rights and Jobs

On the morning of October 29, autoworkers at Factory Zero, the GM electric vehicle plant in Detroit, received an urgent notification about the status of our two-month temporary layoff. For over 1,100 of us working in the plant, the news was that we would have to return to work on Thanksgiving week, only to be indefinitely laid off in January. As the bosses reduce production from two shifts down to one, the holidays are bringing uncertainty and precarity, rather than comfort and stability. Over the past year, hundreds of workers at Factory Zero have already been impacted by rolling layoffs and termination of temporary workers, often announced without notice.

Kerala Has Abolished Extreme Poverty

December 12, 2025 Vijay Prashad, Tricontinental Institute for Social Research. Strategize! India, Kerala, Poverty Eradication, Socialism

On 1 November 2025, the south-western Indian state of Kerala – home to 34 million people – was declared free from extreme poverty by Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan. Kerala is one of the few places in the world to have eradicated extreme poverty, following China, which announced in 2022 that it had eradicated extreme poverty nationwide. Kerala’s achievement is significant for two reasons. First, in a country where hundreds of millions of people still live in poverty, Kerala is the only one of India’s twenty-eight states and eight union territories to have overcome extreme poverty.

Year In Rear View: What The Lack Of Principled And Pronounced Opposition Reveals About US Left

December 12, 2025 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Fascism, Human Rights, Human Rights Day, k, Leftists, The, Wars and Militarism, Youth Activism

Nearly one year into President Trump’s second term, residents of the United States and the world over have witnessed a louder and faster drumbeat towards full-blown and irrefutable fascism and authoritarianism. We have seen our streets and neighborhoods invaded by masked agents of the State from the Immigration Customs and Enforcement (ICE) division of the Department of Homeland Security who are conducting wholesale roundups and pillage of non-white people from their families, places of employment, and communities, national guard troops patrol streets in many of our cities adding to a culture of fear and uncertainty, especially for non white poor and working class people.

From The ‘Island Of Peace’ Myth To Massacre

December 12, 2025 Muhemsi Mwakihwelo, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Mass Protests, Neoliberalism, Political repression, Tanzania

When Issa Shivji presented the case of Tanzania’s unfolding “silent class struggle” more than five decades ago, the political terrain was still fertile enough to engage with such analysis, even if the ruling class lacked the courage to confront it. Fast-forward to today, and that context has radically shifted. The state and much of the population have become deeply invested in superstitious neoliberal illusions, leaving little room for class-based critique. This transformation has also reinforced the power of the long-standing nationalistic slogan, “the Island of Peace,” a carefully constructed myth that masks inequality and silences dissent.

Occupation, Boycott, Death: The Month That Changed D.C.

December 12, 2025 Jerome Paige, People's World. Strategize! Boycotts, Donald Trump, Military Occupation, Washington D.C.

I didn’t expect to begin this article on a sidewalk. But on the Saturday after Thanksgiving, around noon, I mentally finalized what I thought would be a clean two-week account of Washington’s slow tightening. I got off the Metrorail at 14th and Irving to join the #WeAintBuyingIt rally in front of Target’s entrances. A small crowd had gathered, calm and steady, holding signs.Someone turned to me and said, almost casually, “This is Week 36.” Thirty-six consecutive Saturdays of protest. Thirty-six weeks of refusing to spend money in a store that, in their words, “walked away from the very people who kept it standing.”

Workers Caught Up In Warner Bros. Media Monopoly Battle

December 11, 2025 Chauncey K. Robinson, People's World. Strategize! California, Mergers, Monopoly, Warner Bros, Worker Rights

Hollywood, Calif.—Streaming media giant Netflix and Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) announced on Dec. 5 that they had entered into a definitive agreement under which Netflix will acquire Warner Bros., including its film and television studios, HBO Max, and HBO. The deal, valued at $82.7 billion, may have the companies’ investors ready to celebrate, but several labor unions and elected officials are sounding the alarm that the acquisition may be bad business for workers and consumers alike. Over the course of several weeks, a bidding war broke out between major media studios Netflix, Paramount Skydance, and a number of other large media conglomerates over which company would acquire part or all of WBD.

Algeria Hosts Conference On The Crimes Of Colonialism In Africa

December 9, 2025 Nicholas Mwangi, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Africa, Algeria, Colonialism, Imperialism, Neocolonialism, Pan Africanism, Reparations

On December 1, 2025, African leaders, diplomats, and scholars gathered in Algiers, Algeria for a conference on the crimes of colonialism in Africa. Dubbed, The International Conference on Colonial Crimes in Africa: Towards Correcting Historical Injustices by Criminalizing Colonialism, the event occurred under the leadership of President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, and culminated in the drafting and adoption of the Algiers Declaration. The statement consolidates decades of reparations and anti-colonial advocacy into a coherent continental position.

Strategic Convergences Between Africa, Asia And Latin America

December 7, 2025 Mohamed Lamine Kaba, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! Africa, ALBA, Asia, Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), BRICS, Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), Imperialism, Latin America, Neo-Imperialism, Neocolonialism, US Hegemony

The current shift in the world order reveals a deep tension. While the West, weakened by its internal crises and geopolitical contradictions, is trying to preserve its declining leadership, Africa, Asia and Latin America are quietly rebuilding the lines of force of the Global South. Driven by shared memories of domination and renewed aspirations for sovereignty, these regions are now forging strategic convergences that are giving new meaning to tricontinental solidarity. In this context, their struggles against neocolonialism and neo-imperialism are taking on decisive importance in redefining the balance of power in the 21st century and opening up new prospects for their common future.

‘Venezuela, The Threat Of A Good Example’

December 7, 2025 Cira Pascual Marquina, Venezuelanalysis. Strategize! Civilian Militia, Hybrid War, US Military Intervention, Venezuela

As Washington intensifies its hybrid war against Venezuela—combining sanctions, lawfare, psychological operations, and military threats—the South American country once again finds itself in the headlines. To understand this moment, Cira Pascual Marquina spoke with Geraldina Colotti, an Italian journalist, revolutionary militant, and former political prisoner who has engaged with Venezuela for decades. Colotti argues that the current offensive against the Caribbean nation is part of a broader imperial strategy to reassert US hegemony amid a terminal crisis of global capitalism. Drawing parallels with Iraq, Libya, Palestine, and Vietnam, she explains how the Bolivarian Revolution represents the “threat of a good example” and why, despite suffocating sanctions and relentless destabilization, Venezuela continues to be a living paradigm of popular resistance.

Billionaires Are Buying Your Hospitals

December 7, 2025 Ed Pomfret, Inequality.org. Strategize! Billionaires, Health Care, Hospitals, Privatization

South African billionaire Johann Rupert has enjoyed a sudden surge in wealth. His expanding fortune, like those of billionaires around the world, is not a sign of brilliance or achievement. It is a symptom of a system built to funnel wealth upward into the hands of the 1%. Rupert’s net worth jumps from $13.7 billion to $19.1 billion in under a year, powered by sales of high-end jewelry through Richemont, the luxury goods holding company he founded. With his exploding profits he invests in hospital networks, viewing them simply as financial assets, not the essential services the rest of us — the 99% — need and have the right to. The headlines call it “performance,” but anyone living outside the 1% knows it is extraction.

Corporate Pressure Mounts On Chileans Opposing Copper Mine

December 4, 2025 Viviana Herrera, Canadian Dimension. Strategize! Canada, Chile, Environment, Mining, Retaliation

Vancouver-based Los Andes Copper, developer of the proposed Vizcachitas copper-molybdenum mine in Chile’s Valparaíso region, has launched an aggressive campaign targeting the municipality of Putaendo’s mayor, Mauricio Quiroz, and local biologist Arón Cádiz-Véliz. The company is pressing legal and media challenges against them for opposing the mine and leading scientific efforts to protect the area. The conflict centres on a report and technical study commissioned by the municipality, aimed at designating the Rocín River Valley—a high-altitude ecosystem with glaciers, wetlands, and endemic species—as a protected area.

Navigating Collapse Together: Toward Regenerative Public Life

December 4, 2025 Nicole Negowetti, Resilience. Strategize! climate crisis, Ecological Collapse, Local Economy, Transformation

How does change actually happen? This question has followed me across every chapter of my life, from political science and philosophy studies, to graduate work in peacebuilding, into law and food policy, and now into conversations about the polycrisis and metacrisis. Across these settings, I have worked at many scales, always searching for where transformation truly takes root. In the first essay in this series, I explored how food and place reveal the limits of our political binaries. In the second, I examined resistance as an expression of kinship rather than opposition.

Why A Caribbean Zone Of Radical Peace Is Vital

December 3, 2025 Keston Perry, Black Agenda Report. Strategize! Caribbean, CARICOM, Solidarity, US Imperialism, Working Class

The Caribbean Sea has once again become a theater for the renewed geopolitical ambitions of a waning US empire, which is strategizing to bolster its last bastion of hegemony. The arrival of the nuclear-equipped USS Gerald R. Ford on November 15, 2025—the largest and most advanced aircraft carrier, spearheading the most intense military deployment in the region in decades- signals a stark attempt to reaffirm US domination. It reminds us of the Caribbean’s central position in the history of empires and why our only option is to resist these machinations through the pursuit of a radical peace and working-class unity.

Why Can’t We Commit War Crimes And Destroy The Planet…

December 3, 2025 Lee Camp, Substack. Strategize! Austerity, Economic Security, Pentagon Budget, Wars and Militarism

Sometimes it doesn’t seem like two things are connected. But deep down you know they are. You try to grasp the correlation, but it’s elusive. …I think I’ve found the answer. Why can’t we, the United States, regularly blow up fishermen off the coast of Venezuela — without a judge, jury, or relevant jurisdiction — without 49% of American children languishing in or near poverty?? Why can’t we send tens of billions of dollars to help Israel commit genocide while also having affordable housing for Americans? Rather than the monthly mortgage payment on a typical home doubling since January 2020?

Broad Antifascist Front Confronts Far-Right Violence In Croatia

December 3, 2025 Ana Vracar, People's Dispatch. Strategize! Croatia, Far Right Violence, Fascism, Mass Action

Tens of thousands of people in four Croatian cities took to the streets on Sunday, November 30, responding to a call from the initiative United Against Fascism (Ujedinjeni protiv fašizma), a broad coalition of civil society organizations and grassroots groups. Marchers in Zagreb, Rijeka, Zadar, and Pula denounced the escalating wave of far-right violence and historical revisionism, vowing to build broad resistance to trends that are encouraged and supported by the political establishment. “We stand united against fascism because, day after day, we are not witnessing isolated outbursts, but the emergence of a blueprint – one that grows when we remain silent, gains strength when we tolerate it, and ultimately turns fear into the rule rather than the exception,” United Against Fascism declared in its call.
