The International Women’s Strike, New York.

Sign the petition in solidarity with PepsiCo workers.

For weeks, Argentine PepsiCo workers have been fighting to get their jobs back after the multinational illegally closed the plant. The workers occupied the factory, only to get violently evicted last week. On Tuesday, the workers and their allies took to the streets– 30,000 strong- to demand the reopening of the PepsiCo plant and denounce the violent repression.

Now the fight continues, organized around a tent in front of the National Congress where the workers will organize their struggle, as well as a broader fight against austerity.

In the United States and the UK, over 500 people and organizations have signed a petition in solidarity with the workers.

Ken Loach, acclaimed British director, tweeted support for the PepsiCo workers.

Academics such as Cinzia Arruzza, Charlie Post, Michael Roberts, Ian Angus have also sent support.

The International Solidarity Commission of the IWW published a solidarity statement on their website.

AFL-CIO’s Ceasefire Call Shows Power of the Movement for Palestine

The AFL-CIO has called for a ceasefire in Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza. The labor movement must go further for Palestinian liberation and break with the bipartisan regime.

To Stop Trump, We Need Much More Democracy, Not Less

Democrats have been trying to kick Trump off the ballot as an "insurrectionist." Liberals say we have to restrict democracy in order to save it. As socialists, we think they have it backwards: to beat the Far Right, we need a mass movement fighting for radical democracy.

Declaration: End Imperialist Intervention in Haiti, Solidarity with the Haitian People

The “Multinational Security Support Mission” announced by the United States marks a new imperialist-colonial intervention in Haiti by the United States, the UN, and their allies.

“Poor Things” Floats Like a Butterfly and Stings Like a Butterfly

Poor Things is a fantastical comedy with beautiful set design and costumes and an Oscar-winning performance from Emma Stone. So why did it leave me feeling so empty? Despite juggling feminist and socialist ideas, the film is ideologically muddled and often self-contradictory.

New Jersey Democrats Attack the Public’s Right to Government Records

The New Jersey state assembly, led by the Democratic Party, just tried to fast-track a bill that would have gutted the Open Public Records Act. This is a reminder that their party is an obstacle, not an ally, in the fight to preserve democracy.
