Mapping the roots of Brazil’s most notorious red light district from the Byzantine Empire and WW1.

None of this is new, deforestation by the livestock industry dates back to the 1960s. Still, it's good to learn from today's tragedy. More effective than voting is to not support the industries responsible.

If for our Government weapons are more important than schools, perhaps choosing a gun over a book isn’t a matter of choice, but of survival.

We’ve impeached a President, replaced her with a criminal, and now we are run by militia. A severely flawed Democracy has been replaced by a Military Dictatorship that barely bothers to disguise. Where but in a dystopian world is this framed as “Freedom”?

Here is a short overview of G&R’s past year in terms of diversity.

On the misogynistic culture of the Armed Forces, colonial attitudes toward Indigenous and Quilombist peoples in Brazil, and a call to action asking women to take up space.

These rights are essential for combating violent forms of control practiced by States everywhere, which aim only to benefit a hegemony rather than the people as a whole. Europe and the Americas are connected in ways that transcend the virtual world, but these connections have undeniably been exacerbated in this ever-changing technological landscape.”

The fight against Eurocentrism is a struggle against the naturalization of racial oppression in the social condition of the worker. For this reason, Pan-Africanism is a necessary understanding of class struggle.
