I recently had the pleasure of talking with the Nairobi-based podcaster @MaikaNyongesa about Idi Amin, the expulsion of the Asian community, & Kenya's place in all of it. The podcast has just dropped. Part I is about 'The Road to 1972'. Watch it here: youtube.com/watch?v=5dj9cP58…

The novelty of Gen Z socialism doesn’t lie in leaderless mass demonstrations or protesters’ use of social media. What’s really new is the way in which generation has been globalized as a political identity: jacobin.com/2026/10/gen-z-pr…

🌍🎶 Op-Ed: Does the CIA Control Afrobeats? The belief in CIA takeover of Afrobeats, popularized recently by media platform The Spearhead, is the result of historical and contemporary anxieties that revive questions of authenticity and ownership that have trailed the genre since its late-2010s global success.

Serbia’s students have won. When we interviewed them for our @democ_journal article with @pelinamus, they told us they would stay away from opposition parties ("they are all the same") and build their own list to beat Vučić. And they just did it! 🔗 doi.org/10.1080/13510347.202…

Brazil’s Lula da Silva created a social media army of 10+ million people in a WhatsApp groupchat to help fight the meta suppression and algorithms.. and it worked… First of its kind of mobilization in human history!

No matter who wins Israel's elections, Palestinians are unlikely to see much change in policy. "The opposition is very much like Netanyahu," says @dianabuttu.

A student-led list has won Serbia’s elections by a convincing majority, ousting the country’s most powerful politician. Former President Aleksandar Vucic moves into opposition after 14 years, as university professors begin the hard work of rebuilding state institutions.

Lula has once again reached the masses. But this fourth term must entail governing in a different way: jacobin.com/2026/10/brazil-e…

The ICJ found Israel's occupation unlawful. It must end. Until then, under int'l law, Palestinians have the right to resist it through lawful means. Israel shall protect its youth by ending the colonial project that traps many of them in committing atrocity crimes.
A war is coming to the West Bank Yesterday Palestinian resistance fighters conducted a surgical strike against Israeli occupation soldiers, fully in accordance with international law. In response, Israeli government immediately announced that they will do war crimes and started doing war crimes. All the Palestinian villages in the West Bank are under siege, the city of Hebron is under siege. IDF is demolishing house after house, raiding family after family. They said they want to turn Hebron into Rafah. More than 250 families were kicked out into the streets with nothing. People slept on the street last night. The Israeli election is in 3 days, and the Netanyahu-Smotrich government is going to use this to start a war in the West Bank. The only way to stop this is pressure from all directions. We know it works. International pressure worked for the besieged house in Qusra, which still belongs to the Palestinians because of the all-around attention. It can work for Hebron too. But it will require EVERYONE reading this doing everything they can to stop this. Call your representative, hold a demonstration, organise direct action against the occupation’s assets abroad. Keep attention on the West Bank. ACT NOW.
