“In this week’s episode of Breaking History, Gordon and I review the deeper Rhodes Scholar roots of NATO with a look to current global events. We did a pretty fair job tying together a variety of themes ranging from King Edward VII’s role in setting the stage for Sykes Picot pre-WWI, to Edward VII’s direct role in orchestrating World War 1 itself an the role of the Cecil-Russell family in bringing an array of think tanks online centering around the Rhodes Trust network, and Fabian Society which worked closely together to establish the League of Nations. When that fascist world-government plan failed, we discuss how this same network murdered a number of heroic political figures during the 1920s in order to make a second and then 3rd and then fourth attempt at establishing an Anglo-American New World Order culminating in the rise of NATO. How the multipolar alliance is combating this moral virus today is also discussed at some length”.

Important piece from collective member, Makanaka Tuwe, for the Pantograph Punch in collaboration with Zina Abu Ali. Read: Rainbow Military Capitalism is Just Repackaged Colonialism In this exchange, Zina Abu Ali and Makanaka Tuwe reflect on how rainbow capitalism and pinkwashing obscure violence, tug on our belongingness wounds, and erase the abolitionist history of the Pride movement. https://lnkd.in/gxyQnup5

As we say at Ford, be curious! D-Day - Salute to all of the armed services. We often forget the back stories as we celebrate the great day that freed Europe. The African American soldiers were there on the beaches of Omaha and Normandy. They were in support roles, though vital weren't allowed in combat units because of unjust laws that prohibited them from doing so. During WWII, more than 2.5 million African American men registered for the draft, and African American women volunteered in large numbers. America's entry into WWII was in 1941. However, it wasn't until 1944 that the 92nd Infantry Division known as the Buffalo Soldiers, who were the first African American Soldiers sent into combat. This division landed in Italy and made its way through the country until they encountered German troops in September. The Buffalo Soldiers are recognized for their push of the Germans far into Northern Italy.

Imagine a world without the freedom we have today! I personally still believe we have a long way to go, but we have already achieved some important steps in our history. Acknowledging that "Juneteenth is not just Black history; it is American history" is part of our overall journey to reach and experience a true and genuine sense of belonging. Join us today in recognizing Juneteenth's importance and challenge the status quo wherever we can to reach equal treatment for all. #FreedomDay #BlackHistoryIsAmericanHistory #EmancipationDay

This video picks up from my previous posts from earlier in the week that talked about some of the cultural clashes that we witnessed during the 1950’s and 1960’s. In addition, it picks up from the most recent post discussing Project 2025 and its agenda in promoting extremism in various forms of militarism and religious fervor under the guise of patriotism. In this video the content creator discusses the registration of men between the age of 18 and 24 for selective military service which is automatic and this process could be the potential first step in the event of reinstatement of a military draft similar to what occurred in the 1960’s and 1970’s during the war in Vietnam. This video analyzes the various reasons as to why military recruitment and retention rates have declined. In addition, even those who enlist to join are not accepted due to a lack of physical fitness requirements or the inability to pass the intellectual testing that is required for individuals to serve. While people in society want to criticize the “woke movements,” a lot of these movements came out of the civil rights, feminist, and gay liberation movements that originated during the 1950’s and 1960’s. These movements shaped and influenced society, popular culture, and American history.

But there can be no adaptation if we don’t articulate what it is we need to adapt to. Simply put: If we want to preserve peace, the U.S. and its allies need to move onto a war footing, if for no other reason than the fact that our enemies have already done so. To mobilize for what’s coming, we need a culture change in how we organize our economic activity and how we relate to each other in society.>> #war #West #peace #dictatorship #leadership #culture #change #society

Today, we honor #Juneteenth, the day when Union troops arrived in Galveston Bay, TX, and announced freedom to the enslaved African Americans—two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. This historic day marks the end of chattel slavery in the U.S. and is a profound moment of liberation and resilience for the African American community. Juneteenth is a reminder of the delayed but inevitable justice and the unyielding spirit of those who endured and fought against the brutalities of slavery. It underscores the importance of acknowledging and understanding our history, as it shapes our present and future struggles and triumphs. Celebrating Juneteenth is not only about remembering the past but also about recognizing the ongoing fight for equality and justice. As we celebrate #APeoplesJourney, let's take the time to reflect on our history, honor the struggles and triumphs of those who came before us, and continue the fight for equality and justice. #knowyourhistory #Trusttheprocess #staythecourse

#NATO #annualsummit #Washington #Ukraine #China #Russia #Venezuela #Cuba #NorthKorea #SahelStates #Sudan #Chad #Congo #AFRICOM 'This July, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) held its annual summit in Washington, DC, where they celebrated themselves for continuing to exist for 75 years, despite the growing opposition around the world to Western hegemony that the US, EU, and their military gang of thugs NATO carry out. Even after months of massive and consistent protests against the genocide in Gaza, it seems inconceivable that NATO would still gather to plan the next phase in maintaining Western imperialist hegemony over the world, but this is logical and necessary for their purposes because imperialism cannot continue to rule the world without the military might of the Western powers to enforce it. They had to meet to discuss the fire sale and privatization of a war-decimated Ukraine, as well as their next aggressive actions toward China, Russia, Venezuela, Cuba, North Korea, the Sahel States in Africa, as well as their ability to meddle in Sudan, Chad, Congo, and other states on the Continent that have been resource-extraction and labor-exploitation playgrounds for global capitalists, protected by NATO and AFRICOM forces to keep the people opposed to them under control.'

Today, we celebrate Juneteenth, honoring the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the U.S. Originating in 1865 in Galveston, Texas, this day commemorates the end of slavery, two and a half years post the Emancipation Proclamation. Juneteenth is a vital occasion recognizing African American soldiers' contributions to the Union's fight for freedom and the subsequent abolition of slavery. It's a time to honor their service and the ongoing quest for equality within the military and society. The significance of Juneteenth lies in the events leading up to the end of slavery, including the Emancipation Proclamation, the Civil War's conclusion, and the passage of the 13th Amendment. The Reconstruction Amendments, post-Civil War, further solidified these liberties: the 13th Amendment abolished slavery, the 14th granted citizenship and protection, while the 15th provided voting rights. #Juneteenth #ChariotsOfHonor

Happy 4th of July! The day we celebrate our freedoms and our independence! In 1776, America was created as a nation because of an idea! An idea that allowed for a future of freedoms of all people (even if it didn’t begin that way). An idea that allows for elected government and elected officials and leaders; of the people, by the people , and for the people . An idea of a President elected opposed to a leader via birthline, or conquering via force. These leaders we elect, must always preserve our freedoms as Americans , and nurture and build our relationships with other nations that support and promote freedoms in their cultures . There’s a big difference between nationalism and patriotism. Patriotism is the feeling of love ❤️ of one’s country with a stronger focus on the positives within our culture, history, and alliances. Nationalism has more negative connotations with focus on separation of one’s culture and country from others. As we celebrate our independence today, we can also honor our history (lessons learned) and note our present historical significance in the world with our allies. #AUKUS #SIB #NATO For there’s more nations in this world that are ruled under severe oppressive leaders than not. With freedom comes great responsibilities, none more important than preserving peace, liberty, and friendship. This is an everyone and every party issue! #AUKUS supports liberty and independence from dictatorships that seek to take liberties away from others. Our country needs to recognize the fragility and the strength of the freedoms we hold dear, and stand together to protect them.
