MTL Vs Racisme

“You don’t fight fascism because you are going to win, you fight fascism because it is fascism.” -Jean-Paul Sartre

The “crime panic” was a myth. But an analysis by The Appeal shows the narrative helped local police buy facial recognition software, drones, license plate readers, social media surveillance tech, and more. theappeal.org/shoplifting-pa…

My records are my contribution to the anti-fascist movement. Even if the needle seems hard to move, my songs are the tools in which I kick at the darkness till it bleeds daylight. You can dance to this revolution. Read my interview with @Daily_Rock ! daily-rock.com/entrevue-avec-…

L’antisémitisme et l’islamophobie sont les deux faces de la même médaille. C'est du racisme et cela doit cesser. #Montréal

Montreal rapper Remy Picasso and singer-songwriter @PaulCargnello have made an album together called Underground Capo, a project influenced by the tragic death of Picasso’s uncle Nicholas Gibbs, a 23-year-old NDG man who was shot and killed by police in 2018. For our November issue, we spoke with both artists about how activism, tragedy, art and music brought this project to life. cultmtl.com/magazine/

My newest cover story for @CultMTL is an interview with my dude @PaulCargnello and @REMYXPICASSO for their upcoming collab album Underground Capo! If you love rap music and social justice, you'll love the album and this piece. Link below, page 16! shorturl.at/tEW09

Also worth noting that while there is disagreement as to who is responsible, everybody involved has confirmed that it did happen.

Why it's almost as if settler interests align and solidarity along that axis is almost exclusively violent and bad.

Can anything good come of all this? Only if a new international peace movement can be born, demanding ceasefire, negotiations, a path to peace with justice... A free Palestine, and an end to apartheid in Israel. 8/8

Appalled by the way social media is facilitating, encouraging, rewarding all this hate, exploding across all our screens. 7/8

Israeli historian and genocide scholar Raz Segal says Israeli leaders' dehumanizing language about Palestinians in Gaza and the IDF's conduct are cause for alarm. "We're seeing the combination of genocidal acts with special intent. This is indeed a textbook case of genocide."

You can't silence anti Zionist Jews by attempting to erase our Jewishness, calling us self-hating or relying on non-analagous terms from the Holocaust. There is a long line of Jewish resistance + involvement in social justice that goes back decades. We have always been here.

Thank you to the community who walked with us, to the powerful speakers, drummers, volunteers, (Resource Movement) @popmontreal, @ResilienceMTL @EllenGabriel1 @beatrice_deer @AnnDeer4 and many more…we are grateful 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Watch out for fascist apologists. Two years ago at the convoy, this weekend in parliament, la lutte continue. #cndpoli forward.com/fast-forward/5…

AP News confirming that the 98-year old veteran given standing ovation by Canadian parliament, is Yaroslav Hunka, who fought for the 14th division of the Waffen SS. Canadian parliament gave a standing ovation to an outright Nazi collaborator. First noticed by @lingerence.

Excellent journalism by Lev Golinkin in @jdforward. @CBCNews, @TorontoStar, @globeandmail and other legacy media - not to mention the entire #canpoli class - need to step up and acknowledge this appalling moment and be accountable for how it happened. forward.com/fast-forward/5…
