Today come thru at 12noon and support eviction defense

Eviction defense @ 3200 S Kedzie, 12pm . Residents were given notice of a city inspection to take place at 1pm tomorrow but are suspicious that it is an attempt to circumvent eviction court & force them out. Folks are asking for supporters to turn out around noon to help provide support on the ground and potentially block access.

Justice for Tamir Rice and Solidarity with Minneapolis - tonight at 9:30PM
As the smoke clears in Washington, DC after Trump supporters stormed the capitol building—some preliminary thoughts.

Today's events will discredit Trump supporters in the eyes of centrists, but it will also push the envelope regarding what is acceptable. This may help the far right recruit locally countrywide and could normalize similar actions in the future.

The state clampdown after this will suppress freedoms across the board, targeting all forms of dissent. In Turkey, when Erdoğan put down a right-wing military coup, that paved the way for him to repress every form of protest.

State repression of the right will follow the playbook they use against our movements—incorporating reformist elements while isolating and destroying "extreme" elements.

If the only pressure on the government is from the far right, the state will make concessions to them.

Proponents of liberation should not remain spectators, hoping the state will protect us. Let's use this opportunity to reach out to others in our communities to organize against local far-right efforts and also against forthcoming state repression and economic/ecological crisis.
