  2. 'Lewis takes up a debate with several Black feminists who have, at various times, questioned the idea of family abolition, whose central argument has been that, very often, Black families have been sites of resistance against racism. Similarly, we could point to many experiences of class struggle in which sectors of working families have played a key role against the attacks of capital: supporting strikes, establishing relations of solidarity between factories and neighborhoods, staging rent strikes, maintaining soup kitchens, creating movements in defense of public services, and many other forms of resistance. The tradition of “women’s commissions” in strikes, for example, has allowed the working class to articulate fighting forces far beyond the workplace.

    'To this criticism Lewis responds that, even so, we should not cease working for the abolition of the family, since we would not need its “protective shield” if we managed to build a society without racism. The argument contains a grain of truth, but it stops halfway. It fails to contemplate the role that the family relations within sectors of the working class and oppressed can play in moments of heightened class struggle. On another level, it doesn’t account for the fact that capitalism, while it needs such a “social cell” for its own reproduction, constantly undermines working families’ very conditions of existence. Marx and Engels remarked on this in the mid-19th century, pointing to the length of the working day, the lack of decent housing, and the general precariousness of working class life.'

  4. On January 26, 2026, the Eastern High Court lifted a temporary
    ban imposed by the Odense District Court on the publication of recordings made on
    the property of Jeppe Bloch Nielsen, chairman of the Danish Pig Producers Association.

    This version of "Who’s looking after the pigs?" has been updated with the recordings that were previously subject to the injunction.

  10. My favorite quotes from Sojourner Truth's  speech published June 12, 1851, in The Anti-Slavery Bugle:

    *******

    "But the women are coming up blessed be God and a few of the men are coming up with them."

    "I am a woman's rights."

  12. Abschaffung von Gefängnissen, geht das denn?

    Darüber wird am 06.11.2025 in Hamburg diskutiert werden, an der Bucerius Law School.

    Professorin Dr. Graebsch aus Dortmund, aber auch der Richter Martin Eibach sowie, Alexander Lindh, der Drehbuchschreiber der ARD-Serie 'A better place', in der es um Abschaffung von Haft geht, sitzen auf der Bühne.

    Als ehemaliger Gefangener, soll ich die Gefangenenperspektive beisteuern🚩🏴
