Therefore, organized revolutionary action is of urgent NECESSITY.
Whether you’re in Algeria fighting for liberation or in a prison cell in California, we are ALL victims of global capitalism (imperialism). As they emphasized, liberation must have an international vision or risk reproducing the very oppressive structures they seek to escape.
It’s also important to note that Fanon was specifically referring to the relationship between the colonized and the colonizer. George Jackson though, applied that concept to the United States. Seeing the US as the imperial core that housed an internal “black colony.” In weakening that core from the inside, the empires global reach diminishes! It’s time for international scientific socialism!
What are your thoughts? Did George and Fanon have it right? What are the roles of violence, spontaneity, and nationalism in the context of revolution? Do we need international socialism everywhere all at once?

Midwives: The Craft of Birth - Crushing Colonialism
Midwifery in Indigenous communities in “Colombia” has historically been a practice sustained mainly by women, though not limited to them. “In the past, there wasn’t a specific figure responsible for attending births; rather, it was shared knowledge within the community.
During the first days of life, the umbilical cord is carefully watched over. Later, it is buried alongside a seed or beneath a tree, symbolizing a vital connection. The plant that grows becomes a reminder: “there lies that person’s umbilical cord,” reinforcing the roots between the individual and their territory.”
Our work does not end with birth. We continue caring for the life of the child and the mother.”
They aim to represent midwifery not only as a practice of attending birth, but also as a broader system of care, connected to territory and to the ways of life of communities
