Cincinnati ISO Branch: Event: From Tahrir to Occupy
http://cincinnatiiso.blogspot.com/2011/11/event-from-tahrir-to-occupy.html
Friday, November 18, 2011. Event: From Tahrir to Occupy. From Tahrir to Occupy. This is what a revolution looks like. Within the Occupy Movement, one word has been repeated again and again by activists: REVOLUTION! Active for almost 3 months, the movement started out demanding accountability from the 1%, but it has turned into something larger. From Wall Street to Portland and everywhere in between citizens are turning out to demand change, true democracy and the freedom to control their lives. 169; 2010...

Cincinnati ISO Branch: September 2011
http://cincinnatiiso.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 30, 2011. Almost a year old, but as relevant an analysis of the crisis today as it was then. Thursday, September 29, 2011. Teachers Strike to Demand Fair Work Environment at Cincinnati State. Students gather outside of Cincinnati State to stand with their striking professors. And the community must support them. No one should be happy with their situation until all enjoy justice. Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The exploiters have shown that they have class consciousness. Do you? If ther...

Coffee Party Cincinnati: January 2011
http://coffeepartycincinnati.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 26, 2011. Hot Coffee, Corporate Propaganda and the effort to take away your rights. Photo courtesy of here. Most of us remember that a woman sued McDonalds after spilling a scalding cup of coffee on herself, but most don’t know the truth. She got 3rd degree burns on 16% of her body including her genitals and there was a corporate PR effort to distort her story for “Tort Deform. I first read the truth about this story many years ago in Ralph Nader’s book “ The Good Fight. The filmmaker ...

Cincinnati ISO Branch: No War With Iran! No Imperialism!
http://cincinnatiiso.blogspot.com/2012/02/no-war-with-iran-no-imperialism.html
Friday, February 24, 2012. No War With Iran! The war machine is revving its engines and the propaganda is heating up. Who is it this time? As struggle comes to the forefront, the ruling class is looking for ways to divide and conquer. An attack on our Persian friends, or provoking an attack from the Iranian government, is an attack on the international working class. It is an affront to the international democratic movement and it is a means to an end: global control. Movie Screening and Protest.

Saturday, April 21, 2012. The New Jim Crow Comes to UC.

This originally appeared on Ben's website. 1) UC Faculty Senate Notes, February 9th 2012 avalable at: http:/ www.uc.edu/content/dam/uc/facultysenate/senate/docs/facultysenate/fspreparatorypackets/FS prepack February 9 ...2) Va...

Cincinnati ISO Branch: December 2011
http://cincinnatiiso.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 3, 2011. Reform or Revolution in Ohio: A Reflection on 2011. False Dichotomies in Ohio Politics. Enter Occupy Wall Street. In Cincinnati, Occupy the Hood, a fraction of the main Occupy Cincinnati is moving to protest against, and protect families from, the foreclosure of homes. These occupations have taken a principled stance in favor of peace, love, justice, equality and international solidarity; hardly a reformist program. Looking Forward to 2012. The End of Reform. Left I on the News.
