🇵🇸 GLOBAL STRIKE 🇵🇸

So, the movie SURROUNDED deserves its own post...

Letitia Wright's SURROUNDED got slept-on when it dropped in 2023, TBH...

She also acted her ass off.

As I have said, it deals with a similar theme to SINNERS...just within a Western setting instead of a southern juke joint. Basically, it's a one location thriller wherein the heroine Mo, played by Tish, has to navigate when a criminal gang encumbers her journey on a stagecoach. Anyway. it's on PRIME. WATCH IT. SUPPORT IT. Letitia Wright is a producer and it is unheard of for a Black woman that young to produce and star in a movie like this. I literally cannot name another western starring a Black woman and if you trust/know my taste, I'm saying it's a decent watch. ...And Jamie Bell basically plays in a similar pool as Remmick. If you are looking for a similarly themed movie to SINNERS, just a different genre and sans blues music... SURROUNDED is pretty much that. BUT and THIS IS KEY, because it's from the perspective of a Black woman... that status means the lack of trust expands a bit because of the greater danger to her. In fact, I think it's interesting to compare her approach to her situation to how the people in that juke joint handled theirs.

#THISISAREC I may come back to this post to expand on that comparison, actually, under a cut, of course, after a rewatch. Because the similarities and differences are interesting.

Strong progressive parties with engaged labor unions are the best defense against fascism.

Corporate tyranny is the enemy. Billionaire overlords want you destitute.

The short answer is no, not based on what he did.

Pathologizing resistance and protesting in all its forms, including the selfless act of self-immolation in order to communicate an urgent message to save countless innocent lives is a colonial imperialist tool.

Fight any attempt to pathologize Aaron or any activist. They delegitimize Palestinian liberation when they paint us as “mentally ill” as if freedom and liberation are mental diseases!

Rest in peace Aaron.
