In a 12‑hour takeover, they demanded dignity, better care, and a People’s Hospital for the South Bronx which for too long was and still is ignored by systemic neglect.
Their occupation wasn’t just a protest—it was a radical act of self-determination. The Young Lords showed us that when oppressive systems ignore our needs, we must rise, occupy the space, and rebuild from the ground up.
Their demand for a hospital that cared for the people—by the people—reverberates today as a rallying cry.
Exercising the usual far-right deficiency in thinking, Kate Fanning falsely assumed that the 2020 Open University policy of aligning itself with the BLM movement at the height of the George Floyd-inspired riots – was somehow a “personal” attack directed at herself. The UK Court begs to differ and the Judge clearly explained in his statement why Fanning’s interpretation is legally and lawfully “wrong” and “incorrect”. As Fanning is unable to self-censor or self-correct – she is cultivating a cult-like belief in her corrupt attitude amongst those who feel she is worth following. It is ironic as Fanning is studying for a degree in the very bourgeois legal system she is attempting to take-on, defeat, and transcend – all of which she has failed to achieve. Fanning fails to understand that White countries developed modern “racism” around 400-years ago (during colonial and imperialist expansion) – and that non-White people have been forced to react to this hideous ideology ever-since. White people can be victims of inverse racism (which lacks any genuine economic power to make it anything other than nasty words) – but White people are never “disempowered” and are always in control of the societies and economic system they invented (predatory capitalist) and control. Fanning tried to make her inverted misconception of reality a concrete fact by manipulating the Courts to agree with her inherent stupidity.
On March 30, we proudly and reverently remember the immortal Land Day epic, when our people in the Negev, the Triangle, the Galilee, and all other areas of Palestine occupied in 1948 rose up on the land of their fathers and grandfathers, and confronted with their bare chests the Zionist machine of oppression, in defense of their land, dignity, and existence. With their blood, they drew the contours of the Palestinian identity, and affirmed that the land will remain Palestinian, and that the right will remain steadfast, no matter how great the challenges, and no matter how brutal and criminal this occupation is, and no matter how horrific the war of extermination waged throughout modern history.
Many of these young men were recruited in Ukraine – but trained in Europe, UK and US. Whilst training in the UK with the British Army under the Tory government (the Court heard) – these Neo-Nazi recruits were asked to “cover-up” their Hitlerite tattoos when enjoying English society as “guests” – due to “certain members of the English community possibly taking offense!” Whilst staying in the UK, these Neo-Nazi recruits had all their expenses met by the British government whilst being given generous personal allowances greater than those granted to British people in need. With the UK so deeply involved with the Neo-Nazi take-over of Ukraine (the Court heard) – it is a wonder the country still bothers to celebrate its WWII victory over Adolf Hitler – even though the Soviet Red Army carried-out most of the fighting and dying!
“I have lost my work, been ostracised by colleagues and had no settlement from the university, no apology, no admission that the judgment has any effect on anyone else – although of course it does,” she said.
She added: “Universities tend to always ask for NDAs in these employment cases, but I will be resisting that because I do not see why a settlement should be dependent on my silence.” The Observer revealed last year that two-thirds of core tutorial teaching at Oxford is done by academics on what the University and College Union calls “Deliveroo-style” hourly-paid roles or precarious fixed-term contracts.
Jolly said she initially thought that the “sham contracts” she and Abrams had were unusual. “But we talked to young academics and realised no one could get a mortgage and people were stuck in this totally insecure situation for years.” It was an “open secret” the two women decided they had an obligation to expose.
After their court victory, Law for Change, the charitable litigation fund which supported the pair, said the case would secure better contract rights for lecturers at Oxford, but also help others working on “exploitative contracts” right across academia.
What makes his death significant is that his murderer was never really brought to justice and that some in authority supported this for political reasons.
The “riotous mob” was in fact more than 400 soldiers on the rampage and the words “found death” on his gravestone were used rather than murdered.
Why was this? It was 10 years later that Sergeant Green’s murderer, when arrested in Canada on another offence, admitted his guilt.
By then Scotland Yard was not really interested and a prosecution was never considered. What caused this apparently callous action and why was justice not pursued as vigourously as we might have expected?
Throughout the Great War, many troops from the British Empire had fought with distinction. Canada produced about 600,000 men from 1914-18, taking 210,000 casualties, with over 56,000 dead.
They were awarded 63 Vicoria Crosses. The awesome Vimy Ridge memorial in northern France bears testimony to their bravery and loyalty during that dreadful period.
However, when war ended in November 1918, many troops, easpecially those from overseas, expected to be de-mobbed and repatriated as quickly as possible. Unfortuanely this did not happen.
In fact de-mobilisation plans had been in the Government’s thoughts since 1917.
War Secretary Lord Derby thought that in order to help the country’s economy, the most skilled workers should be released first into the key industries.
However these were the very workers who had been the last to be conscripted and the unfairness of this caused small scale mutinies within the British Army in Calais, Folkstone and London.
This inequitable system was changed by the new Minister of War – a certain Winston Churchill – in January 1919.
He decided men should be de-mobbed on the basis of age, length of service and number of wounds received. This in effect was a “first in- first out” policy.
This worked well for British troops, but Dominion troops were left hanging around for months. In March 1919 disgruntled Canadian troops rioted in Rhyl and this was repressed only after a number of men had been killed.
