Long running abolitionist radio show and podcast Kite Line speaks with Swift Justice about the state-wide Alabama prison strike.
This past week, we spoke to Swift Justice, who is an incarcerated organizer in Alabama.
Thousands of Alabama prisoners began a strike last week to protest poor prison conditions across the state, where prisons are overcrowded, understaffed and notoriously dangerous.
Today, Swift Justice speaks about the recent retaliation the strikers have faced.
He updates us on the strike’s progress, some of the unprecedented challenges they are facing, and how he is inspired by the people who pushed the idea forward.
Our friend Nagihan Akarsel, Jineolojî Academy member and Jineolojî Journal Editorial Board member was martyred as a result of an armed attack in Sulaymaniyah at 9.30 this morning.
With anger and rage, we condemn this assassination, which is one of the recent political murders carried out by fascist and hegemonic powers against all women in resistance around the world.
Peter McCullough, one of the world’s top cardiologists, has been suspended by Twitter.
Dr. Peter McCullough, one of the most highly respected cardiologists in the world, is now banned from Twitter. He’s always been very careful with his tweets, but not careful enough.
It literally couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.
Peter is one of the nicest people I know, one of the smartest, and one of the most well respected, one of the most published people in medicine, and one of the most cited (he has an h-index of 116).
But Twitter knows more about medicine than Dr. McCullough so they are in a position to be the judge, jury, and executioner.
I’m sure Twitter employees are celebrating how they are saving lives by deplatforming one of the most respected people in medicine.
Here’s Peter’s twitter account if you want to read his tweets. Of course, you can’t now… they’ve all been removed from view. ALL OF THEM… not just the “offending tweet”… ALL OF THEM.
Peter: Welcome to Twitter Heaven. We’ve been expecting you. Dinner will be served at 7pm in the formal dining room. We are looking forward to discussing your research.

I write about COVID vaccine safety and efficacy, corruption, censorship, mandates, masking, and early treatments. America is being misled by formerly trusted authorities
house comment: Dr. Peter McCullough had over HALF A MILLION followers and his expertise exposed the Covid vaccine racket, saving countless lives and exponential future suffering. Normally they would just shadow ban him, for instance I could retweet him a million times and no one would listen or reply. But with 512.1K followers he was a threat to the ongoing criminal pharma scam.

This Tuesday, October 4, marks six days since fractions of the armed group that formed in Santa Martha, Chenalhó
This Tuesday marks six days since fractions of the armed group that formed in Santa Martha, Chenalhó, in the Chiapas Highlands, have confronted each other. No authority of the three levels of government has entered the place, those who have managed to flee are at least 32 families (127 people), who explained that there is an undetermined number of people killed and dozens of houses burned.
The state and federal governments have maintained their silence on this situation. Unofficially, an official source explained that they broke off all negotiations with this group that had promised to “stop shooting” in order to defuse the armed attacks that at the time were directed against their neighbors in Aldama, but that are now experienced inside Santa Martha, due to differences among the same armed group.
Juan Ruíz was murdered on September 29, the next day his wife and all his children were killed, one of them was saved and was one of the people who managed to warn that in Santa Martha and the communities that make up that ejido, positions over actions that the armed group should or should not carry out have divided them. There are those who never agreed to its articulation, and have been left in the middle of two fires. [1]…..
Chiapas and the Zapatistas face a dramatic increase in violence II
The Agua Azul Cascades, Chiapas, Mexico.
By: Mary Ann Tenuto-Sánchez | Part 2 of 2
Part 1of this article began to expose factors that contribute to the dramatic increase in violence in Chiapas: 1) counterinsurgency (the government’s “low-intensity war” against the Zapatistas) and 2) two national organized crime groups battling each other for control of the state and local organized crime working with one or the other of the national criminal organizations. Part 2 addresses other sources of violence: 1) the Mesoamerica Project; 2) Municipal Elections and 3) Migration.
The Mesoamerica Project and the San Cristóbal-Palenque Highway
There is a neoliberal effort underway, promoted by the World Bank, to bring indigenous peoples in southeast Mexico into the capitalist marketplace. The vehicle for bringing this about is a massive infrastructure development plan, originally named the Plan Puebla Panama (PPP) and then re-named the Mesoamerica Project.” The name change took place because the PPP was so unpopular and generated so much national and international resistance that it went underground for several years to seek financing and also to make people think it had gone away, but it had not gone away or been forgotten. The PPP simply changed its name and the government stopped referring to projects as part of the unpopular mega-plan.

We call on the Kurdistan Regional Government to find the perpetrators of this murder as soon as possible. This attack is a continuation of the brutal murders against Yasin Bulut, Mehmet Zeki Çelebi and Suhel Xorşid.
K Star call women to join women’s uprising in Rojhilat and Iran Kongra Star called on all women in the world, organizations and personalities calling for freedom and democracy to join and support the uprising of women in Rojhilat and Iran, and strongly condemned the murder of Gina Amini by the Iranian authorities.
If this murder case is not investigated, the collaboration of the Kurdistan Regional Government will face the rage of the rising wave of our women’s revolution.
Nagihan has been active in the university youth movement, in the press and in Jineolojî efforts. She spent a long time in the Kurdistan Women’s Freedom struggle, and resisted in prison for years for this cause.
