Today in Labor History October 11, 1865: Hundreds of black men and women, led by preacher Paul Bogle, marched in Jamaica, starting the Morant Bay rebellion. The former slaves rose in rebellion against injustice and poverty. Most were prevented from voting by high poll taxes. Recently, living conditions had worsened because of floods, cholera and smallpox epidemics, and a long drought. When the militia killed seven men, the protesters attacked and burned the courthouse and nearby buildings. Twenty-five people died. Bogle was arrested and charged with inciting to riot. The governor declared martial law, ordering troops to hunt down the rebels. They killed at least 400 more people, including women and children. They arrested over 300. Many of them were innocent, but nonetheless convicted and executed.

Quiet starts small. Each time you pay cash, navigate offline, or refuse automation, you weaken the systems profiling you.

To all of the brave folks out there, fighting injustice. Those who call themselves antifascists, and those who don’t even know that they are. Those at the protests. Those in the flotillas. Those harassing ICE in the streets. All of you…

I just wanted to say you’re fucking rad. Thank you for fighting the good fight and getting in good trouble.

Cry, grieve, and have moments of despair. But don’t give up. Don’t lose hope.

✊🏻

Photo of me in front a bookshelf inside a house. I’m holding up my hands in the shape of a heart and looking into the camera with an expressionless face. I’m wearing a knit hat, sea foam green glasses, and a black Sea Shepherd t-shirt. I have a long beard and have two full tattoo sleeves.

Stone and Sky: Andor

I am by no means a Star Wars fangirl – at least not ever since George Lucas sold his soul to Disney. I do love the original trilogy, with Empire Strikes Back being my unrivaled favorite of the Star Wars saga. However, I stopped following most Star Wars content that Disney continues to throw at us after The Last Jedi. I actually enjoyed the latter—it was very funny, perhaps too funny—but I […]

Today in Labor History October 7, 1944: Uprising at Birkenau extermination camp (associated with Auschwitz). Jewish Sonderkommando, mostly from Greece and Hungary, attacked the SS with stones and hammers, killing three of them, and set crematorium IV on fire and threw their Oberkapo into a furnace. Sonderkommando were Jewish prisoners who were forced by the Nazis, on threat of their own deaths, to dispose of gas chamber victims). After escaping, the rebels reached Rajsko, where they hid in the granary, but the SS pursued and killed them by setting the granary on fire. By the time the rebellion at crematorium IV had been suppressed, 212 members of the Sonderkommando were still alive and 451 had been killed.

A quotation from Orwell

A dirty joke is not, of course, a serious attack upon morality, but it is a sort of mental rebellion, a momentary wish that things were otherwise. So also with all other jokes, which always centre round cowardice, laziness, dishonesty or some other quality which society cannot afford to encourage.

George Orwell (1903-1950) English writer [pseud. of Eric Arthur Blair]
Essay (1941-09), “The Art of Donald McGill,” Horizon Magazine

Today in Labor History October 2, 1800: Slave rebellion leader Nat Turner was born. In August, 1831, Turner led the only effective, sustained slave revolt in U.S. history. They killed over 50 people, mostly whites, but the authorities put down the rebellion after a few days. Turner survived in hiding for several months. White slave holders got together and executed over 50 slaves and severely punished dozens of non-slaves in the frenzy that followed the uprising. His actions set off a new wave of oppressive legislation by whites prohibiting the education, movement and assembly of slaves and free blacks, alike.

Willenskraft ist das Ego, das seine Faust gegen die Strömung ballt und versucht, den Fluss mit bloßen Händen aufzustauen. Sie nennt sich Stärke, aber sie blutet aus und verwechselt Anspannung mit Souveränität.

Sie ist eine Rebellion gegen die Unvermeidlichkeit — und dabei verletzt sie sich immer zuerst selbst.

Was wäre, wenn die einzige wahre Kraft die Strömung selbst wäre und nicht die Entschlossenheit, die ihr widersteht?

Picture of a part of a comic page. It is a work in progress. At the top there is a panel with a bottle with a cloth that has fire at its neck. Next to it is a panel with a narration bubble saying "it is really a very simple construct!" and bellow it is a drawing of a bottle of beer, an old rag and a plastic bottle, with lines pointing to them and having the words "bottle", "old rag" and "flammable liquid". Bellow them at the left is a panel showing the back of a man holding a molotov cocktail burning with heavy depiction of shadows and light. On top of his head is a narration bubble saying "...riots...". At its right is a draft with pencil of an armoured man throwing a molotov cocktail and the narration bubble at the top saying "even with terrorism!!". Bellow them are two more panels, still at the draft stage, with narration bubble "of rebellion..." and "...and of protes oppression, injust". The text and panels are cut off, due to the pic. The panels and drawings are inked with hatching.
