Community bike workshops, also known as bike co-ops or bike kitchens, epitomize the relationship between bicycles and self-sufficiency. These co-ops first appeared in Europe in the 1980s and in California in the early 2000s, and can be found worldwide now. The online community Solarpunk Travel has charted more than 100 bicycle cooperatives in the United States.

Progressives are growing increasingly angry with the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) after “squad” member Rep. Cori Bush’s (D-Mo.) primary loss. Bush was unseated in a primary where AIPAC spent aggressively against her. Just weeks prior, the group poured $15 million in a primary to defeat Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-N.Y.). AIPAC invested nearly $24 million all together.

Since a decade ago, there’s been a serious maturation of the field of animal advocacy. It has integrated the many varying perspectives on what advocates are trying to achieve, and somewhat grown past the frictions of very different people trying to work together toward a common goal. And people have accomplished real and worthy things, and learned a lot about what works.
Right-wing efforts to undermine public schools are designed to shock the public into permanently lowering our expectations for what public schools can be. Those efforts may be backfiring.
The Complexities of Solidarity

Witnessing the genocide in Palestine, activists are connecting dots of the military-industrial and prison-industrial complex, white supremacy, U.S. imperialism, settler colonialism, patriarchy and toxic masculinity — connections that had often disappeared behind the pressure of the system to isolate struggles and sectors of the oppressed population into silos.
