Nearly a year into Israel's genocide of Palestinians in Gaza, US support for the pariah state has not ceased. Now, as Israel drastically escalates indiscriminate bombing and massacres in neighboring Lebanon, the US is preparing to receive Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in New York City, where he will address the United Nations on September 26. The https://shutitdown4palestine.org/ coalition has called for a mass march at 3:00 PM on that day, beginning at Bryant Park in Manhattan and then heading to the UN. https://twitter.com/layansima?lang=en, Education Director at https://twitter.com/PeoplesForumNYC, returns to The Real News to discuss Netanyahu's visit, how the movement for Palestine will rise to confront him, and why solidarity with Palestine remains the most pressing political question of our time.

25 SEP 2024 · Two years ago, workers from several different Trader Joe’s grocery stores joined the wave of unionization efforts spreading across the country. Workers in Hadley, Massachusetts, made history in 2022 by not only becoming the first Trader Joe’s store to vote to unionize but also by opting to form an independent union, Trader Joe’s United (TJU). However, like with Starbucks, Amazon, Medieval Times, and other companies where workers have been exercising their right to organize in recent years, rampant union busting has been part of the Trader Joe’s story from the beginning. What’s worse, as Alex Press writes in Jacobin, rather than be compelled to follow the law and play by the rules, the supposedly progressive grocery chain has joined Elon Musk’s SpaceX in attacking the very constitutionality of the National Labor Relations Board. What is the current state of the union drive at Trader Joe’s? What issues are employees (“crew members”) still dealing with on the job, and what can supporters do to help? In this episode, Max speaks with Alec Plant, a worker organizer at the Lincoln and Grace Trader Joe’s in Chicago and a member of Trader Joe’s United.

24 SEP 2024 · The role of financial incentives in mass incarceration is often thought of in terms of the role of private contractors and private prisons. But the far greater financial incentive in mass incarceration comes from the public sector—the role of police in imposing fines and fees on local residents as a strategy to secure revenues for public budgets. This practice is happening all over the country, but now, https://finesandfeesjusticecenter.org/articles/hidden-price-of-justice-fines-and-fees-in-dcs-criminal-legal-system/ explores the extent of this perverse fiscal strategy in the nation’s capital, Washington DC. https://x.com/MikeJohnsonJr_ of the https://www.dcfpi.org/ joins Rattling the Bars to discuss this eye-opening report, “The Hidden Cost of Justice.”

Anti-Zionist Canadian Jews fight for Palestinian liberation w/Corey Balsam | The Marc Steiner Report
24 SEP 2024 · Israel's almost year-long genocide of Palestinians in Gaza has brought many long-simmering questions of politics and identity within the international Jewish community to the fore.
