As @vijayprashad.bsky.social reminds us, Cuba has faced US aggression since 1959, intensified under Trump in blatant violation of international law. As we mark 60 years since the Tricontinental in Havana, we stand firm against efforts to overthrow revolutionary struggles worldwide. #LAI27
Manolo de los Santos: In 1966, US media said Cuba was collapsing. Instead, Havana welcomed 500+ delegates from liberation movements, communist parties, and socialist states. The Tricontinental proved it: imperialism predicted defeat. The world’s peoples organized revolution. #LAI27

Patricia Ariza Flórez’s outrage at the US kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro and his wife Cilia Flores calls all anti-imperialists to resist: US aggression tramples decades of international law and national sovereignty. We stand with the Venezuelan people rising worldwide #LAI27
Trade unions have always been at the heart of anti-imperialist struggle. Now, a new generation is rising: organizing workers, uniting globally, challenging neoliberalism. Anti-imperialism is anti-capitalism. It’s about building a better society @babaaye.bsky.social #LAI27
The global health gap wasn’t born from bad choices; it was built through imperial domination. Colonialism, racism and global power still ration care. A just future isn’t aid; it’s struggle: anti-racist, anti-colonial, anti-imperialist @drtlaleng.bsky.social #LAI27
Ceasefire on paper, genocide in reality @franceskalbs.bsky.social. This is imperialism and settler-colonialism enforced through apartheid: killings continue, famine continues, Gaza displaced and erased. The EU must cut ties, impose sanctions, and prosecute complicity. #LAI27
On the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, Omar Barghouti calls for intensifying global pressure to end all forms of complicity in the genocide against Palestinians and in the decades-old system of oppression they face. @bdsmovement.bsky.social #LAI27
When Trump threatens to invade Nigeria over alleged Christian genocide, he recycles old colonial tactics wrapped in ‘humanitarian’ rhetoric — while Nigerians demand Hands Off. #LAI27 convener @babaaye.bsky.social writes for @tricontinental.bsky.social thetricontinental.org/pan-africa/n...

From hospitals to blockades, Hanne Bosselaers stands with Gaza. Aboard The Conscience, she joined the @freedomflotilla.bsky.social to defy the siege. What's happening in Gaza is not a conflict, it’s a crime. Only global solidarity and organized resistance can end the genocide #LAI2O27
“It is amazing to see how this international movement has become so powerful.” In our webinar with People's Health Movement Mustafa Barghouti honors Gaza’s resilience and the global solidarity that became a revolution. #LAI27
Europe must break with US imperialism and reject building its own capitalist empire. We need a socialist Europe, anti-imperialist, anti-colonial, and in solidarity with the Global South’s liberation struggles @petermertens.bsky.social #LAI27

🇧🇫 Thomas Sankara was assassinated on 15 October 1987. The Marxist president of Burkina Faso fought for pan-African unity against the stranglehold of IMF debt and to feed his people. He succeeded: the UN recognized that hunger had been eradicated in just four years ✊
Trump is glorifying the memory of Columbus by reviving #ColumbusDay, but that’s an insult to Native Americans. 1492 didn’t mark the start of a dream; it marked the beginning of genocide. @adrianthomas1990.bsky.social
The spirit of Bandung wasn’t just about being free; it was about being free together. The Global South has always fought for freedom, but Bandung was a radical moment of collective liberation. Made possible through unity and solidarity @progintl.bsky.social #LAI2027
The spirit of Bandung burns in the Sahel. These states forced the military to throw the French out, resisting neocolonialism through action. Anti-imperialism lives in protest, not in policy. Dismantle neocolonialism @vijayprashad.bsky.social #LAI27
On 30 Sept 1965, one of the worst massacres of the 20th century began. Backed by the CIA, the Indonesian military and right-wing mobs slaughtered up to 1 million communists and leftists. A methodical purge erased a powerful movement.
🔊 Hear from @jeremycorbyn.bsky.social as he calls for a world free from the threat of nuclear weapons. A powerful message for peace, diplomacy, and global disarmament. #LAI2027
Wada Masako, a survivor of the Nagasaki bombing, asks: ‘What is dignity? Should human beings be treated like that?’ Her testimony is a call for peace and nuclear disarmament.

LAI27 at Manifiesta ! ManiFiesta is the festival of solidarity where activism meets culture and internationalism 📢 The League Against Imperialism Centennial Campaign is cosponsoring the panel discussion: “The Global South, BRICS, China… The World is Tilting” 🗓 September 13 🕐 1:00 – 2:45 PM
Jeremy Corbyn — convener of the League Against Imperialism Centennial Campaign (LAI27) — reminds us: If humanity has already outlawed biological weapons and landmines, we can and must do the same for nuclear weapons — even more destructive and dangerous than both combined.
Thomas Sankara’s legacy is alive! Read @tricontinental.bsky.social 's dossier on the emerging paradigm in the Sahel reflecting a rejection of the imperial command model and a political horizon aligned with the emancipatory aspirations of the Global South. thetricontinental.org/dossier-sahe...
