		<description><![CDATA[Another black youth has been shot and killed by cops in a society where that is not an aberration but the norm, where mass incarceration is the new Jim Crow, where the crises of today are part of a brutal history of white supremacy inextricably bound with patriarchy and capitalism. <a href="http://www.afreesociety.org/on-kimani-gray-and-on-not-walking-away/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Occupy Sandy needs to be not just another form of relief, or even recovery, but a force for social change that simultaneously works on a comprehensive strategy for community power. It needs to build infrastructure around housing, healthcare, food and energy sustainability that also make life easier for those most affected by environmental racism on a day-to-day basis. While protest should always be a part of our long-term strategy, we believe that Occupy Sandy must, to some extent, continue moving the solely protest-driven model adopted by Occupy Wall Street to embody movement practices led by communities. <a href="http://www.afreesociety.org/why-race-matters-after-sandy/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“They” as a form of queer identity is relatively recent, but no less contested. We need to get the facts straight, because by the time we get to arguing over whether or not “they” is politically correct, we should be well over the fact that, yes, it does work as proper grammar <a href="http://www.afreesociety.org/%e2%80%9cthey%e2%80%9d-singular-is-correct/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am not suggesting that this or anything else makes shooting at, hiding behind, injuring or killing civilians acceptable. I don’t think anything could. It’s true that living under rocket fire is terrifying, and so is the daily experience of occupation and the denial of basic rights that Palestinians have endured for decades. Both can be deadly, too. <a href="http://www.afreesociety.org/the-real-enemy-in-gaza/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Looking around the room in awe, I couldn’t help but be overwhelmingly disappointed that 80-90% of the attendees in the room were white, middle-class people --- not the people most affected by climate change. This underscored for me how absolutely critical it is to “connect the dots” between global poverty, climate change and institutional racism. <a href="http://www.afreesociety.org/dothemath-calls-for-climate-justice-to-be-the-next-anti-apartheid-movement/">Read more <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
