It’s far from radical to reject a system predicated on violence – despite what thinktanks might claimOn 7 January 2026, Renee Good was killed by ICE agent Jonathan Ross; video captures a man’s voice calling her a “fucking bitch” afterwards. Kristi Noem, secretary of homeland security, maligned Good as having committed “domestic terrorism”. Good’s killing became a national flashpoint as protests erupted demanding justice for the mother of three.Good’s killing is no anomaly. A Wall Street Journal investigation revealed 13 instances of ICE firing into civilian vehicles since July 2025, with at least eight people shot and two killed. ICE detentions are notorious for their inhumane conditions; 32 people died in ICE custody in 2025 alone, matching a record set two decades prior in 2004.Heba Gowayed is an associate professor of sociology at Cuny Hunter College and Cuny Graduate Center and author of the book Refuge: How the State Shapes Human PotentialVictor Ray is the F Wendell Miller asso...

In an era of TikTok and YouTube, teens have never watched old-school television less – yet zoomers love this broadcast drama seriesHannah Leef knows she should be studying for midterms this week.

12 h. ago Why America needs a new antiwar movement – and how it can win | Jeremy Varon

Demonstrations against the Iraq war proved protest works. Now we must halt destruction before it more powerfully startsIn spring 2004, Gen Anthony Zinni uttered about Iraq the dreaded words in US politics: “I spent two years in Vietnam, and I’ve seen this movie before.” A year after George W Bush’s declaration of “mission accomplished” – when the war had hit its peak popularity at 74% – the invasion had descended into quagmire, marked by a raging insurgency, the Abu Ghraib torture scandal and US casualties nearing 1,000. For the first time, a majority of Americans judged the war a “mistake”. In this, they echoed what millions of Americans, predicting fiasco, had been saying since before its start.By the summer of 2005, with Iraq exploding in civil war, public support further eroded.

The new Congress empaneled the bipartisan Iraq study group, which concluded that the war had to end...
