Peace forces must take advantage of the moment to challenge the war in Ukraine and Washington’s overt strong-arm equation, “whatever it takes, for as long as it takes.” Instead, we must demand justice, diplomacy, negotiations, and #peace.

Socialism is not a dream, it has the solutions to the problems of capitalism. It is a necessity to improve working class people's lives. @PeoplesWorld @ChicagoYCL @peoriacpusa

I’m honored to receive the support of @SBWorkersUnited IL. Over the last few years, they have won historic victories throughout Chicago and inspired so many workers to demand more and achieve better. I stand with them now and always.
I like my coffee #UnionStrong ✊🏿☕️

Starbucks workers across Illinois are turning out to protest hour cuts, short staffing and SBUX’s absence from the bargaining table. Striking is POWER. Striking is JOY. #ShutItDown #OneDayStronger

BREAKING: Workers at over 100
Starbucks stores across the country are striking to demand an end to Starbucks' illegal union-busting campaign. While the company keeps a metaphorical 'empty chair' for us in the boardroom, we're demanding a real seat at the table! #StarbucksStrike

BREAKING: Starbucks workers are on strike nationwide, demanding the company stop union-busting and negotiate a contract.
The strike was timed to “Founder’s Day,” a holiday invented by Starbucks to honor CEO Howard Schultz… who resigned early.

Since 1930, the Communist Party of Vietnam has spearheaded the fight against imperialism and capitalism. From the victory over Western imperialists in 1975, to the challenge of constructing a modern socialist republic, CPV sets an example for communists all over the world

We stand with those protesting the horrific police murder of Tyre Nichols and call on the leaders of the labor movement to take action to continue abolishing systemic oppression. Remove police unions from our labor federations now!
