‼️ TONIGHT • Join us for session five of Hidden Histories of Rebellion in the U.S. Tonight's class, 🌾 "Rural Revolt Against War: The Green Corn Rebellion," will be taught by the Education Director here at The People's Forum, Layan Fuleihan! ℹ️ In August 1917, hundreds of poor white, Black, Seminole, and Creek farmers in Oklahoma took up arms, refused the WWI draft as "a rich man's war and a poor man's fight," and planned to march on Washington to end American involvement in the war—an uprising that became known as the Green Corn Rebellion. Though the rebellion was crushed and over 450 were arrested, it stands as a powerful history of multiracial, class-based solidarity among the rural poor who recognized their shared enemy in capitalist exploitation and imperial war. In this class, we'll explore the alliances between tenant farmers, sharecroppers, and Indigenous peoples, examining the radical traditions that flourished across the rural West and asking why these histories have been so deliberately buried. 📅 TONIGHT, Tues. Feb 24 🕡 6:30 PM ET 🛜🏠 Hybrid — In-person at The People's Forum, or online 🔗 Register at peoplesforum.org/rebellion

It is a book that every organizer, teacher, historian, and everyday person committed to reimagining the world we live in needs on their shelf.

This evening we held a historic book launch for Tricontinental, Havana 1966, beginning with a grounding from Yuri Gala Lopez of the Permanent Mission of Cuba to the United Nations. The book, edited by Manolo De Los Santos with a foreword by Vijay Prashad, was discussed in conversation with Kate Gonzales, editor at @1804Books Tricontinental triumphantly compiles the unrecorded and unsung documents of the 1966 meeting of revolutionary delegates from Africa, Asia, and Latin America in the heat of a transforming world for national and socialist liberation in Havana, Cuba. That historic gathering took place amidst the escalating violence of the Vietnam War, alongside liberation struggles sweeping across Africa, from Guinea-Bissau & Cape Verde to Mozambique, Angola, and beyond. All the while, the United States was ramping up lethal aggression against decolonial movements worldwide, determined to crush the possibility of liberation wherever it emerged. What made Havana 1966 so extraordinary was not only the moment itself, but the persistence it took to create a space where revolutionary ideas, strategy, and internationalist solidarity could be forged, despite differences, war, repression, and imperial retaliation. That insistence on gathering, thinking collectively, and building unity was not optional then, and it is not optional now. Today, as exclusion, dispossession, and the tightening blockade against Cuba intensify, the lessons and documents of Tricontinental remind us that internationalism is not buried in the past. It is a living practice, and a vital tool for survival and liberation. 🔗📖 Buy the book now at 1804books.com or in-person at The People’s Forum!

📖Tricontinental, Havana 1966 LAUNCHES THIS WEDNESDAY • HARDCOVER AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW VIA @1804Books! ℹ️ Join editor Manolo De Los Santos and Vijay Prashad for the launch of Tricontinental, Havana 1966 on Wed, Feb. 11 at 6:30PM at The People’s Forum and online! 🔗RSVP: peoplesforum.org/events/tricont… Tricontinental brings together many of the monumental commitments that emerged from the Tricontinental conference, including speeches, resolutions, and never-before-seen photos from this historic meeting. In 1966, revolutionary forces were on the offensive: the Vietnamese were bravely fighting the US military, South Africa was rising up against apartheid, Palestine was resisting Zionist colonization, among many other fronts of struggle. US imperialism, on the defensive, was wreaking havoc across the world—it became obvious that worldwide solidarity among revolutionary forces was a necessary step towards achieving total liberation. The Tricontinental was not only an acknowledgment of that fact, but a promise to make that solidarity a material reality. Decades later, US imperialism continues its assault on working and oppressed people across the world, and this conference provides us a glimpse into what is necessary to build true liberation today.

TODAY MINNESOTA LEADS THE WAY! A historic general strike is unfolding across Minnesota RIGHT NOW. Workers are walking out, students are staying home, businesses are shut down and people are taking the streets. People demand an end to ICE brutality and the raids terrorizing our communities and justice for all immigrants. We will continue demanding justice for Renée Nicole Good, killed on January 7th while defending her neighbors and all people killed while under ICE detention. Minnesotans are providing an important example for the whole country: When they attack us and our communities, we fight back! There are hundreds of solidarity actions happening across the country. In NYC, join us in Union Square at 4pm! #GeneralStrike #JusticeForRenee #StopICETerror #Minnesota

We stand with community and religious leaders Nekima Levy Armstrong, Chauntyll Allen, William Kelly, and all those who are being persecuted for standing up and organizing their communities against ICE terror and invasion. Their arrests today symbolize an attack on the growing movement of Minnesotans and people across the country calling to abolish ICE. These arrests are a clear attempt to scare people away from their constitutional right to protest on the day before a statewide shutdown. But we know that the people of Minnesota and around the country will continue to stand up for justice against the Trump regime that sanctions ICE murder and attacks on our communities!

Congratulations to my brother @manolo_realengo for putting together this collection of speeches and documents from the 1966 Tricontinental Conference, which gives our institute its name. Manolo spent a very long time working through the Cuban archives to assemble this book, for which I was very pleased to write the foreword. It will be out in January 2026 from @1804Books and all our partner publishers. In December, @tri_continental will publish a dossier that reflects on the Conference and on the Tricontinental Spirit today. Subscribe to our materials at thetricontinental.org and you will learn when it has been published. Forward ever, backward never.

I just finished reading this book by @wasimsaidharbid, it is a testimony of genocide from people living and dying (killed/murdered) in Gaza. It is so heartbreakingly real and powerful, and it is a call to action. It destroyed me, and to put the pieces together is to fight for liberation. For human rights for Palestinians. It is not enough to be against this genocide, we must be for the liberation of Palestinians from their Zionist occupiers and murderers.
