I proudly wear my union pride on my work badge, a bold symbol of solidarity with workers everywhere, defying the system that tries to keep us silent, while reflecting my commitment to socialist ideals and my teachers' union.

We're not really allowed to be too political with our badges, but this pin feels like a good way to represent. It might be small, but to me, it represents the unbreakable strength of workers standing shoulder to shoulder against the forces that seek to divide us.

The lie that Americans are inherently against socialism is nothing more than an attempt to erase the powerful legacy of socialist struggle in this country!

From the labor strikes to the civil rights movement, our history is drenched in the blood and sweat of those who fought for justice, for the working class!

Artist Tovarisch (https://x.com/nwbtcw) captures this revolutionary spirit in a series of posters that remind us: socialism is not foreign—it's in our bones!

The fight for a just future rages on!

Brothers and sisters, we're at the crossroads of history, just as the Black Panthers did in the 1970s, when they rose with courage and defiance to face the brutal forces of capitalism and white supremacy head-on.

They understood that power never concedes willingly, and neither will the capitalist oppressors who thrive on the exploitation of the working class. We must be as fearless as they were, unflinching in our demand for justice, equality, and true liberation.

The status quo is not some immovable force of nature—it is a system built on the backs of workers, upheld by greed and violence, and it can be torn down with the strength of a united, class-conscious movement.

But we cannot afford the luxury of fear or hesitation.

Our oppressors, the corporate elite and their political puppets, profit from our divisions, keeping us shackled in wage slavery while they hoard wealth we’ve earned with our sweat and blood. Like the Panthers before us, we must organize, resist, and fight back.

This system will not crumble on its own; it will only be dismantled by the hands of the people. Let their fear of our power be our fuel.

We rise for our rights, for the rights of our comrades, and for the generations yet to come. The time for half-measures is over—revolution is not only necessary, it is inevitable.

Stand firm, friends, because the future belongs to those bold enough to take it.

"Nothing that we get under capitalism is granted to us because they're benevolent."

The Democrats want to paint Tim Walz as a progressive addition to Harris' campaign, when in reality, the only action Walz has ever taken has been as a result of the pressure from our movements.

We’re running this campaign because the people and the planet deserve better than the Democrats and Republicans.

On the topic of race: racism is inherently connected to and serves the economic system known as capitalism.

The war on Black America looks like fortifying mass incarceration, increase in policing and surveillance, increase in police terror, voter suppression, exploitation. Both parties have not only supported a war on black and brown communities, they have and continue to profit from it.

"Third party candidates should have the opportunity to debate on screen with Republicans and Democrats."

Tomorrow, the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris will take place.

As a third party candidate, we're barred from the debate stage and unable to discuss our platform. That's democracy under capitalism in action!
