this clip is quite old, but anyone feeling surprised or shocked by today’s result clearly hasn't been paying attention. Obviously I'm biased, but my mate David had a clearer diagnosis of contemporary politics than anyone alive now.

Join @UCBLaborCenter this Thursday at 5pm US Pacific to honor Jane McAlevey. Berkeley was an important intellectual and teaching home for Jane in the last years of her life, and the great work they do there is imbued with her theory of change and accompanying organizing methods.
Mark your calendar for this Thursday and celebrate the life and work of Jane McAlevey! laborcenter.berkeley.edu/eve…

“We need way more power being built. We need people out of advocacy mode, out of mobilizing mode and into really serious organizing.”— Jane McAlevey, a major voice in labor, died today. Jane had many pieces with In These Times. Most recent was this Q&A. inthesetimes.com/article/jan…

Solidarity. There has to be an ask. Please support @rosaluxglobal so they are able to continue Jane's work.
I don't know what to say about Jane McAlevey passing away. I'm very sad. I loved her so much. But I know there has to to be an ask. So here's one. Everyone support Organizing for Power. We need to ensure her ideas and methods keep being taught.
