Where Are the Men
by Alon Mizrahi in The Mizrahi Perspective on Substack
“With courage, clarity and a willingness to pay the price, women have taken leadership roles in the Palestine revolution everywhere. Men, on the other hand, have been painfully absent. Why is that?”

Songwriters in a Fiat factory. Miners in the local music studio. Workers on the radio and musicians on the picketline. Music can carry a strike from one factory to the next or bring it into living rooms across the globe. Record by record, this book unearths some of the biggest swings musicians, workers, and supporters have taken to co-create a popular culture of resistance.
Online, more than 300,000 people have signed cards pledging to participate in a general strike.
No matter what tyrants may do, ultimately the people have the means to defeat them.

Big News! 
We’re honored to share that A Red Road to the West Bank has been awarded a 2025 Jen Angel Anarchist Media Grant, presented by the Institute for Anarchist Studies and @anarchistagency
This support will help us continue developing our documentary, which connects the struggles of Indigenous peoples in North America and Palestine against settler colonialism, displacement, and erasure.
Co-directed by Clifton Ariwakehte Nicholas, a Kanien’kehá:ka activist and filmmaker, and Franklin López, Puerto Rican filmmaker and founder of subMedia, this project is both a film and an organizing tool — a resource for solidarity, resistance, and education.
We are also deeply honored to share this recognition alongside so many incredible projects, including Mainline’s The Process is the Punishment podcast on the ATL 61 RICO trials, The Dugout, a Black anarchist podcast reshaping radical history, and All Damn Night, a documentary chronicling resistance to Florida’s abortion ban.
After many grant rejections, it feels powerful to know we can always count on anarchists to have our backs. Our first official grant comes from two incredible anarchist organizations — and that means a lot.
That said, we are still in great need of funding to finish this important project. If you’d like to support us directly, you can donate here: https://amplifierfilms.ca/redroad
We’re grateful to the IAS and Agency for recognizing the urgency of this work, and to all of you who have stood with us on this journey so far.
Today in Labor History August 20, 1619: The first group of 20 African slaves landed at Jamestown, Virginia. This marked the beginning of 240 years of legalized chattel slavery for African Americans. However, both chattel slavery and indentured servitude had been common in the 13 colonies since 1526, including for white Europeans. And the concept of race didn’t really take hold until 1676, when free and enslaved blacks and whites united against the ruling class in Bacon’s Rebellion, which also occurred in Jamestown. After putting down the rebellion, nearly a year after it began, the authorities began creating a set of racialized laws, including the Virginia Slave Codes, providing small privileges to lower class whites, and hardening the racial caste system, in a largely successful attempt to prevent further solidarity between the multi-racial lower classes.
