From Rhode Island to California, ¡solo el pueblo salva al pueblo!

Rhode Island community members are tuned in watching the second panel from La Defensa del Pueblo, a summit happening right now in Oxnard, CA to end ICE terror across the U.S., and We’re excited to be watching this pivotal panel, “A Future Without ICE” streamed live on BreakThrough News!

Tune in now or rewatch later at YouTube.com/BreakThroughNews

Under the Trump administration, we are witnessing an intensified assault on civil liberties against immigrant communities, freedom of speech, the right to protest, labor organizing, public education, due process, and other rights that generations of people fought to secure.

In response to this escalation, we immigrants, unionists, activists, grassroots organizations and progressive people all over the U.S. are attending this Summit and doubling down in the national movement against ICE terror.

📢 CALL TO ACTION: Sign the petition! Fire Jason Owens!

Eight Brown and RI organizations have joined the call. Brown University Health’s decision to hire former head of Border Patrol Chief Operating Officer Jason Owens as VP of security is an affront to our community. It is disgusting that after nearly two years of a mass movement against immigration enforcement here in Rhode Island, Brown University Health would hire someone who has led a system of intimidation and violence against immigrants.

Nearly every Rhode Islander is either an employee or patient of Brown University Health, or a student of Brown University. All of us have to be part of the struggle to fire Jason Owens.

SIGN THE PETITION TODAY: tinyurl.com/FireOwens

📢 ¡LLAMADO A LA ACCIÓN: ¡Firma la petición! ¡Despidan a Jason Owens!

Ocho organizaciones de Brown y Rhode Island se han unido a este llamado. La decisión de Brown University Health de contratar al exjefe de la Patrulla Fronteriza Jason Owens como Director de Operaciones (Chief Operating Officer) y vicepresidente de Seguridad es una afrenta contra nuestra comunidad. Es indignante que, después de casi dos años de un movimiento masivo contra la aplicación de las leyes migratorias aquí en Rhode Island, Brown University Health haya contratado a alguien que ha dirigido un sistema de intimidación y violencia contra las personas inmigrantes.

Casi todas las personas en Rhode Island somos empleados o pacientes de Brown University Health, o estudiantes de Brown University. Todas y todos tenemos que ser parte de la lucha para despedir a Jason Owens.

FIRMA LA PETICIÓN HOY: tinyurl.com/FireOwens

📢 APÈL POU AKSYON: Siyen petisyon an! Revòke Jason Owens!

Uit òganizasyon Brown ak Rhode Island mete tèt ansanm pou mande sa. Desizyon Brown University Health pran pou anboche ansyen chèf Border Patrol la, Jason Owens, kòm Direktè Operasyon an (Chief Operating Officer) epi VP Sekirite a se yon gwo ofans pou kominote nou an. Li degoutan pou wè apre prèske de lane yon gwo mouvman kont represyon imigrasyon nan Rhode Island, Brown University Health ta anboche yon moun ki te dirije yon sistèm entimidasyon ak vyolans kont imigran.

Haiti lights the way! The Haitian revolution is the blueprint for our struggles for freedom today.

Last Saturday, more than 60 people packed in to discuss the lessons of the first successful revolution in the Western hemisphere, when enslaved Africans cast off the chains of slavery, defeated their French colonizers, and declared independence. This inspired struggles for liberation worldwide.

Despite US attempts to exploit and divide Haiti and the Dominican Republic today, solidarity is growing. Working people in Haiti, the DR, and the US all demand: Hands off TPS. US out of Haiti. US out of DR.

Thank you to Eve’s Kitchen for providing incredible Haitian food for this event!

This Black August, we’re going back to August 1791 to learn about the uprising of enslaved Africans that led to the founding of the first Black republic in the Western Hemisphere. The Haitian Revolution has been an inspiration to oppressed people across the world who have fought for freedom for the past 200 years. Join us for this free community educational event to explore lessons from the Haitian revolution, histories of Haitian and Dominican solidarity, and the struggle to liberate the island from U.S. intervention today.

Pandan mwa Out Nwa sa a, n ap retounen nan mwa Out 1791 pou nou aprann sou soulèvman Afriken ki te esklav yo, ki te mennen nan fondasyon premye repiblik nwa nan Emisfè Lwès la. Revolisyon Ayisyen an te yon sous enspirasyon pou moun ki sibi opresyon atravè lemond, moun ki te goumen pou libète pandan 200 dènye ane yo. Vin patisipe avèk nou nan evènman edikatif kominotè gratis sa a pou nou eksplore leson nou ka tire nan Revolisyon Ayisyen an, istwa solidarite ant Ayisyen ak Dominiken, ansanm ak lit pou libere zile a anba entèvansyon Etazini jodi a.

Este Agosto Negro, regresamos a agosto de 1791 para aprender sobre el levantamiento de africanos esclavizados que condujo a la fundación de la primera república negra del hemisferio occidental. La Revolución Haitiana ha sido una fuente de inspiración para personas oprimidas de todo el mundo que han luchado por la libertad durante los últimos 200 años. Acompáñanos en este evento educativo comunitario gratuito para explorar las lecciones de la Revolución Haitiana, las historias de solidaridad entre haitianos y dominicanos, y la lucha por liberar la isla de la intervención de Estados Unidos en la actualidad.

This week we were at CACD’s 3rd Annual Katxupa Festival, celebrating Cape Verdean history and cultural resistance! Katxupa was born out of Cape Verdeans’ survival and struggle for independence from slavery and colonialism, and continues to be an important dish today.

Luta ta kontinua! 🇨🇻

Fully fund RIPTA — no new bus hub! Money for people’s transport, not millionaire developers!

On August 20, the RIPTA Board of Directors voted to move the bus hub out of Kennedy Plaza. This move will upend the lives of over 42,000 Rhode Islanders who depend on RIPTA every day.

Under pressure from both Democrats and Republicans and their corporate backers, the RIPTA Board has spent years trying to move the bus hub behind closed doors. Throughout that process, riders have consistently opposed the relocation and have been denied any meaningful say in decisions about the future of their public transportation system.

We deserve a system where our public transportation and other government agencies are accountable to the people, not the billionaires.

Last weekend, we observed Black August through studying its history in the prisoner struggle, writing letters to comrades behind the walls, training in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and making commitments to the four principles of this revolutionary month: fast, study, train, fight.

The tradition of Black August emphasizes self-cultivation not as an individualized practice, but rather as part of a collective movement for Black liberation and the freedom of all oppressed peoples. Black August teaches us that our people have never only endured the violence of capitalism — we have fought, and we will continue to fight to build a different world.

We are fighting for the world that George Jackson, his younger brother Jonathan, and generations of Black revolutionaries struggled to bring into being until their final moments. The only way to honor their legacies is to carry our struggle forward until victory.

Join us for a Black August Print Studio this Saturday, 12-4pm at 3 Acorn St, where we will discuss the role of art in our liberation struggles and deepen our commitment to the movement through artmaking!
