Meet the Pipeline Protester Facing 5 Years for Peaceful Action

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FOZWJV6bJY&ab_channel=DemocracyNow%21

We speak with climate activist and water protector Mylene Vialard, whose trial for peacefully protesting the Enbridge Line 3 pipeline began this week in Minnesota. Vialard faces up to five years in prison for her 2021 protest, when she attached herself to a 25-foot bamboo tower erected to block a pumping station in Aitkin County. Vialard, who lives in Colorado, had come to Minnesota to take part in a wave of Indigenous-led acts of civil disobedience to stop the pipeline. Between December 2020 and September 2021, police in Minnesota made more than 1,000 arrests. Mylene Vialard is just the second water protector facing felony charges to go to trial. “We’re destroying our planet. We’re destroying our way of life,” says Vialard. We also speak with Indigenous lawyer and activist Tara Houska, who was also arrested in 2021 for participating in a nonviolent action against Line 3. She says police violence against environmental and Indigenous activists has gotten “exponentially worse” since the 2016 Dakota Access protests at Standing Rock. “The crackdown on environmental protests is nationwide,” says Houska.

An interview with author and activist Philippe Blouin who was a co-editor of the important collection “The Mohawk Warrior Society: A Handbook on Sovereignty and Survival.”
The first collection of its kind, this anthology by members of the Mohawk Warrior Society uncovers a hidden history and paints a bold portrait of the spectacular experience of Kanien’kehá:ka survival and self-defense.

The people moshing with Nazis in the street is good, but I want to platform and encourage more #MutualAid #FreeStore, #SolidarityNotCharity work, #CommunityDefense and #DirectAction
There are thousands of ways we can help the community and encourage resilience against authoritarian ideas.

This coming weekend, the fascists are congregating again at the American Renaissance Conference in #Burns #Tennesssee. They have escalated in recent years and must know they are fiercely opposed.

Burns is about an hour from #Nashville and we need all the support and protestors we can get. We cannot let this tumor grow within our communities.

OK, but like it or not, you still have a choice: Throw in the towel and keep sipping lattes . . . or screw up your courage and go down swinging . . . do something.

Two More Machines Burned at Brent Scarbrough Site in Atlanta

Lehr und Wehr Verein ("Educational and Defense Society") was a socialist military organization founded in 1875, in Chicago, Illinois. The group had been formed to counter the armed private armies of companies in Chicago.
-The Internet

Never heard of them before. As a response to worker self-organization the state made it so that all militias had to register with the state and wouldn’t you know the state made it illegal for revolutionary worker militias to exist above the board. In response, Lehr und Wehr Verein made a 2A legal appeal.

In a strange twist we now see 2A absolutists carving space for themselves but in doing so also space for armed radicals, socialists, anarchists, communists, and leftists broadly to re-emerge.
