The Year of Resistance 2015
2015 will be the Year of Resistance where we are all called to stand – in whatever ways we can — against the hegemony of brutal policing and punishment, against the callous capitalism which destroys our lives and the planet, against the charlatans who profit off protest, against the smoke and mirrors of treacherous/tepid calls for reform.
Be ready for anything. Stop for nothing.
Let history be your weapon.
But Stand too — for Another Way.
