Wow, les paroles de Srinivas :
▻https://genius.com/Marc-ribot-srinivas-lyrics
Dark was the night
Cold was the ground
When they shot Srinivas Kuchibhotla down
It was in Austin’s Bar and Grill
But it could’ve been most anyone
A madman pulled the trigger
Donald Trump loaded the gun
My country ’tis of thee
Srinivas was an engineer
Sunayana was his wife
Like so many here before them
They come here to build the life
They were plannin’ their first child
But it was not to be
But a stranger shot Srinivas down
Screamin’ “Get out of my country!”
My country ’tis of thee
I was born in America
And it’s right here I intend to stay
But my country’s hurtin’ now
There’s a few things I need to say
If you fly a flag of hate
Then you ain’t no kin to me
And to Srinivas Kuchibhotla’s surviving family
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee
My country ’tis of thee (Kuchibhotla!)
My country ’tis of thee (Eric Garner!)
My country ’tis of thee (Heather Heyer!)
My country ’tis of thee (Susie Jackson!)
My country ’tis of thee (Tywanza Sanders! Ethel Lee Lance!)
My country ’tis of thee (Freddy Gray! Tamir Rice!)
My country ’tis of thee (Frankie Best! Amadou Diallo!)
My country ’tis of thee (Michael Brown! David Simmons!)
My country ’tis of thee (Myra Thompson! Sharonda Singleton!)

A propos de la chanson Rata de dos patas, il précise :
Due to the fears that Trump regime retaliation would threaten her visa status, the vocalist on this recording of Rata De Dos Patas has requested that we delete all reference to her identity. We believe her fears are entirely justified, and have complied with her wishes.
We thank her for her wonderful performance, and for her great courage in making the recording at all. And we look forward to a day when political and artistic expression is no longer under the shadow of such vindicative and racist repression. Venceremos!
BELLA CIAO
Italian traditional; Arranged by Marc Ribot
& Tom Waits; Translated by Marc Ribot
One fine morning / woke up early
Bella ciao, bella ciao, goodbye beautiful
One fine morning / woke up early
To find a fascist at my door
Oh partigiano, please take me with you
Bella ciao, bella ciao, goodbye beautiful
Oh partigiano, please take me with you
I’m not afraid now anymore.
And if I die a partigiano
Bella ciao, bella ciao, goodbye beautiful
Please bury me up on that mountain
In the shadow of a flower
So all the people, people passing
Bella ciao, bella ciao, goodbye beautiful
All the people, the people passing
Can say: what a beautiful flower
This is the flower / of the partisan
Bella ciao, bella ciao, goodbye beautiful
This is the flower / of the partisan
Who died for freedom
THE MILITANT ECOLOGIST
[based on FISCHIA IL VENTO]
Written by Marc Ribot (Knockwurst Music);
Inspired by the Italian traditional
The wind it howls, the storm around is raging
Our shoes are broken, still we must go on
The war we fight, is no longer for liberty
Just the possibility / of a future.
Underground, the militant ecologist
Like a shadow emerges from the night
The stars above, guide her on her mission
Strong her heart swift her arm to strike
If, by chance, cruel death will find you
Know your comrades will revenge
We’ll track down the ones who hurt you
Their fate’s already sealed.
The wind is still, the storm is finally over
The militant ecologist blends back into the shadows
Somewhere above, the earth’s green flag is flying
We don’t have to live in terror
Somewhere above, the earth’s green flag is flying
The only flag that matters now
Somewhere above, the earth’s green flag is flying
And if its not...
there’s nothing more to say.
Son premier texte, où il se pose des questions sur la possibilité de résister en tant que musicien :
My grandparents lost brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts and uncles in the Holocaust, and I’ve toured and have friends in Russia and Turkey: we recognize Trump, and it’s no mystery where we will wind up if we don’t push back.
Its not that things before Trump were any picnic: the many victims of racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, and war under earlier presidents – some of them Democrats—are not forgotten; and even among the politicians for whom I voted, few were willing to address the structural causes of these problems.
But even the most pissed off of my activist friends knew right away that Trumpism was seriously wrong, and that resistance—not just protest, which by definition acknowledges the legitimacy of the power to which it appeals—had to be planned.
I’m a musician, so I began my practice of resistance with music.
Normally, I practice by studying the past (“Ancient to the Future!” as the Art Ensemble of Chicago put it—and as Hannah Arendt might have if she’d been a jazz musician), and then blowing on or reconstructing or simply misreading those changes until they become useful in the present.
So, I went back to archives of political music known for years and listened again—trying to find what was useful now. I found songs from the World War II anti-Fascist Italian partisans (“Bella Ciao,” “Fischia il Vento”), the U.S. civil rights movement (“We’ll Never Turn Back,” “We Are Soldiers in the Army”), a political song originally recorded by Mexican artist Paquita la del Barrio, had disguised as a romantic ballad (“Rata de Dos Patas”).
I also wrote songs: things I heard at demonstrations, and newspaper and television stories that I couldn’t process any other way wound up as lyrics. I changed these found texts as little as possible: much of “Srinivas” is a metered version of news articles on Srinivas Kuchibhotla a Sikh immigrant murdered in February 2017 by a racist who mistook him for a Muslim. And “John Brown” really did “kill... five slaveholders at the Pottawatomie creek”).
By March 2017, I had the material for Goodbye Beautiful/Songs of Resistance.
I make no claims of historical “authenticity” about the arrangements of archival songs on the record— although I hope they work on more than one level, the arrangements and composition songs on this CD were written and performed, without apology, as agitprop. I borrowed from, referenced, and quoted public domain song as much as I could, wanting to harness the power of our rich traditions to the needs of the current struggle wherever possible. For the same reason, I altered texts and arrangements freely, as political song makers have always done.
The underlying politics of this recording is that of the Popular Front: the idea that those of us with democratic values need to put aside our differences long enough to defeat those who threaten them.
Although this approach has its frustrations, it worked last time around (1942-45).
Coordinating a multi-artist recording like this wasn’t easy: although the artists involved were without exception enthusiastic and helpful.
But the madness of the past year kept us moving when things got bogged down: we recorded Justin Vivian Bond’s “We’ll Never Turn Back” literally while Donald Trump was delivering a friendly speech to anti-gay hate groups in Washington DC. Tom Waits’ “Bella Ciao” was recorded near Santa Rosa, in the haze of smoke from 1,500 homes destroyed by wildfires attributed partly to global warming.
Not a day goes by that I don’t think about the fact that we’re living through what may be the last years of possibility to lessen the degree of catastrophic climate change which will be experienced by our kids.
And what I think is that thinking isn’t enough.
The same can be said of singing.
Profits from this CD will be donated to The Indivisible Project, a 501c4 organization creating a political response to Trump. They now have chapters in EVERY congressional district, and work to build the local and national networks we need. I have a lot of friends who think that ANY kind of politics isn’t cool. I appreciate the sentiment, but: we need to get over it, roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty if we’re going to survive this thing.
I want to thank all the Artists and musicians who sang or played on this cd, not only for their time and great performances, but for their critiques and insights, musical and political, that shaped this recording at every stage.
Although my intention in organizing this recording has been to express solidarity with everyone victimized by the current regime, finding a way to express that solidarity without repeating old patterns of oppression is not easy. I hope the dialogue and spirit of solidarity begun among the performers on this recording will continue with its listeners and spread even further...
M Ribot
–-----------------------------------
Son deuxième texte, où il se pose des questions sur les défauts de la musique engagée :
Post Script:
The question of ‘the good fight’—how to fight an enemy without becoming it—hangs over “political” art (as the question of truthfulness hang over art claiming to have transcended the political). Indeed, Left and Fascist song do share musical commonalities. (Armies fighting for causes good and bad all need songs to march to).
This recording won’t resolve that question.
But I’ve noted a difference between the marching songs of fascism and those of the partisan and civil rights movements: a willingness to acknowledge sadness:
“We are soldiers in the army...
We have to fight, we also have to cry.”
“And if I die a partisan,
Goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful, goodbye beautiful,
Please bury me on that mountain, in the shadow of a flower.”
“I am a pilgrim of sorrow, walking through this world alone.
I have no hope for tomorrow, but I’m starting to make it my home.”
“...a thousand mill lofts grey
are touched by all the beauty
a sudden sun exposes
Yes it is bread we fight for, but we also fight for roses.”
These songs’ acknowledgement of human frailty, of the fact that “we have to cry” even as “we have to fight”, is for me a sign of enormous strength. Their vision of a beauty beyond victory is for me a sign of hope, a reminder that we at least have something worth fighting for.

Et elle déclare aussi :
There are some women in the video that do not have on the pants, because I don’t believe that all women need to possess a vagina to be a woman. I have one I’m proud of it, but there’s a lot of policing and controlling that people are trying to have over our vaginas and when you think about female genital mutilation, when you think about all these women’s issues, I wanted to make sure we were discussing these issues but we were also celebrating each other. I wanted Pynk to be a celebration of women who are unique, distinct, different, may be different from one another but when they come together they create something magical and special.

The Black Lives Matter activist Erica Garner has died, after a week in hospital following a heart attack. She was 27. Garner was the daughter of Eric Garner, a man who died in a police chokehold in New York in 2014.
Among tributes, Senator Bernie Sanders said that although Garner “didn’t ask to be an activist, she responded to the personal tragedy of seeing her father die … by becoming a leading proponent for criminal justice reform and for an end to police brutality”.

Un nombre croissant d’artistes hip-hop annulent leurs concerts en Israël : rapport
Middle East Monitor, le 30 octobre 2017
▻http://www.agencemediapalestine.fr/blog/2017/11/08/un-nombre-croissant-dartistes-hip-hop-annulent-leurs-concerts-e
Le nombre d’artistes hip-hop nord-américains qui annulent leurs concerts en Israël est en hausse, selon le site d’information israélien « Walla », avec pour facteur clé de ce phénomène la campagne de Boycott, Désinvestissement et Sanctions (BDS).
L’article souligne les connexions croissantes entre les militants de Black Lives Matter (BLM) [La Vie des Noirs Compte] et ceux de la solidarité avec la Palestine, citant le programme BLM publié en août 2016 qui dénonçait Israël en tant qu’Etat d’apartheid et soutenait BDS.
Le rapport israélien a fait aussi allusion à l’influence d’anciennes annulations politiques par Snoop Dogg et Lauryn Hill.
D’après l’article, le rappeur américain Future a annulé un concert programmé en Israël grâce à la pression en coulisse des militants de BLM et BDS, bien que l’artiste n’ait pas lui-même avancé des raisons politiques.
Le rapport citait aussi des facteurs non liés au boycott, tels que le prix élevé des billets et des objectifs de vente de billets irréalistes par les promoteurs du concert.

The FBI’s New U.S. Terrorist Threat : ‘Black Identity Extremists’ – Foreign Policy
▻http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/10/06/the-fbi-has-identified-a-new-domestic-terrorist-threat-and-its-black-
As white supremacists prepared to descend on Charlottesville, Virginia, in August, the FBI warned about a new movement that was violent, growing, and racially motivated. Only it wasn’t white supremacists; it was “black identity extremists.”
Amid a rancorous debate over whether the Trump administration has downplayed the threat posed by white supremacist groups, the FBI’s counterterrorism division has declared that black identity extremists pose a growing threat of premeditated violence against law enforcement.
Cela dit, ils n’ont pas tort. De LEUR point de vue, les groupes les plus dangereux sont ceux dont la victoire, même relative, renverserait l’ordre capitaliste établi : les #Noirs, les #Autochtones...

Angela Davis, Women’s March on Washington, 21 Janvier 2017:
▻https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1x6rV_ZDGA8
Traduction en français:
►https://seenthis.net/messages/562864
Texte original:
"At a challenging moment in our history, let us remind ourselves that we the hundreds of thousands, the millions of women, trans-people, men and youth who are here at the Women’s March, we represent the powerful forces of change that are determined to prevent the dying cultures of racism, hetero-patriarchy from rising again.
"We recognize that we are collective agents of history and that history cannot be deleted like web pages. We know that we gather this afternoon on indigenous land and we follow the lead of the first peoples who despite massive genocidal violence have never relinquished the struggle for land, water, culture, their people. We especially salute today the Standing Rock Sioux.
"The freedom struggles of black people that have shaped the very nature of this country’s history cannot be deleted with the sweep of a hand. We cannot be made to forget that black lives do matter. This is a country anchored in slavery and colonialism, which means for better or for worse the very history of the United States is a history of immigration and enslavement. Spreading xenophobia, hurling accusations of murder and rape and building walls will not erase history.
"No human being is illegal.
"The struggle to save the planet, to stop climate change, to guarantee the accessibility of water from the lands of the Standing Rock Sioux, to Flint, Michigan, to the West Bank and Gaza. The struggle to save our flora and fauna, to save the air—this is ground zero of the struggle for social justice.
"This is a women’s march and this women’s march represents the promise of feminism as against the pernicious powers of state violence. And inclusive and intersectional feminism that calls upon all of us to join the resistance to racism, to Islamophobia, to anti-Semitism, to misogyny, to capitalist exploitation.
"Yes, we salute the fight for 15. We dedicate ourselves to collective resistance. Resistance to the billionaire mortgage profiteers and gentrifiers. Resistance to the health care privateers. Resistance to the attacks on Muslims and on immigrants. Resistance to attacks on disabled people. Resistance to state violence perpetrated by the police and through the prison industrial complex. Resistance to institutional and intimate gender violence, especially against trans women of color.
"Women’s rights are human rights all over the planet and that is why we say freedom and justice for Palestine. We celebrate the impending release of Chelsea Manning. And Oscar López Rivera. But we also say free Leonard Peltier. Free Mumia Abu-Jamal. Free Assata Shakur.
"Over the next months and years we will be called upon to intensify our demands for social justice to become more militant in our defense of vulnerable populations. Those who still defend the supremacy of white male hetero-patriarchy had better watch out.
"The next 1,459 days of the Trump administration will be 1,459 days of resistance: Resistance on the ground, resistance in the classrooms, resistance on the job, resistance in our art and in our music.
“This is just the beginning and in the words of the inimitable Ella Baker, ’We who believe in freedom cannot rest until it comes.’ Thank you”

Ceci est une Marche des #femmes et cette Marche des femmes représente la promesse d’un #féminisme qui se bat contre les pouvoirs pernicieux de la #violence étatique. Un féminisme inclusif et intersectionnel qui nous invite toutes et tous à rejoindre la résistance face au #racisme, à l’#islamophobie, à l’#antisémitisme, à la# misogynie et à l’#exploitation capitaliste. Oui, nous saluons la lutte pour un salaire minimum à 15 dollars. Nous nous dédions à la résistance collective. Nous résistons face aux millionnaires qui profitent des taux hypothécaires et face aux agents de la #gentrification. Nous résistons face à ceux qui privatisent les soins de santé. Nous résistons face aux attaques contre les musulmans et les #migrants. Nous résistons face aux attaques visant les personnes en situation de #handicap. Nous résistons face aux violences étatiques perpétrées par la police et par le complexe industrialo-carcéral. Nous résistons face à la violence de genre institutionnelle et intime — en particulier contre les femmes transsexuelles de couleur.

En 2002, Lauryn Hill participe à l’emission « Unplugged » de MTV. Plutôt que de donner des versions acoustiques de ses tubes, elle compose de nouveaux morceaux pour l’occasion, dont une chanson en hommage à Amadou Diallo qui vient de se faire assassiner par la police américaines, 41 balles de révolver alors que lui n’était pas armé.

Perhaps the most famous example of “African passing” is the infamous anecdote of former UN Secretary General, Kofi Annan. A student in 1960s U.S., Annan had traveled to the Jim Crow South. He needed a haircut, but was told by a racist white barber: “I do not cut nigger hair.” Annan, who is Ghanaian, responded: […]

Ava DuVernay’s Netflix film ’13th’ reveals how mass incarceration is an extension of slavery - The Washington Post
▻https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/arts-and-entertainment/wp/2016/10/06/ava-duvernays-netflix-film-13th-reveals-how-mass-incarceration-is-an-extension-of-slavery/?tid=sm_tw
Slavery technically ended over 150 years ago. But Ava DuVernay wants you to take another look at the amendment that abolished it.
Her documentary “13th” is a powerful look at how the modern-day prison labor system links to slavery. The film, which premieres on Netflix and in select theaters Friday, offers a timely and emotional message framed by the upcoming election and the Black Lives Matter movement.
[Review: Ava DuVernay’s ‘13th’ explores the intersection of racism and criminal justice]
“13th” received a standing ovation last week at the New York Film Festival, where it became the first documentary to open the prestigious festival. The title refers to the 13th amendment, which formally abolished slavery. But DuVernay zeroes in on the amendment’s exception clause, which states that slavery and involuntary servitude are illegal “except as a punishment for crime.”
In an interview with The Washington Post, DuVernay said she initially sought to make a documentary that explored “the idea that there are companies making millions of dollars off the punishment of human beings.” But the documentary inevitably turns to current conversations about the criminal justice system and the fatal police shootings of African Americans.

UVM’s Black Lives Matter flag controversy | Fusion, 9/26/16
A university raised a Black Lives Matter flag next to the American flag — and people lost their minds
▻http://fusion.net/story/350851/black-lives-matter-university-of-vermont-flag
Last Thursday, school officials from the University of Vermont and representatives from the school’s student government agreed that it would be appropriate to hoist a Black Lives Matter flag alongside the American and state flags on campus in a show of solidarity with the people who are “struggling with the violence and search for justice in this country.”
“The Student Government Association is sponsoring the flag at this time to show symbolic support for our community,” said Student Government president Jason Maulucci.”It is fitting that the flag flies adjacent to the recently engraved benches that pronounce the values of Our Common Ground – Respect, Integrity, Innovation, Openness, Justice, and Responsibility.”
The flag caused controversy almost immediately. Some, like sophomore Akilah Ho-Young, were elated.
“Can I tell you I wanted to cry when I saw this,” Ho-Young wrote in a now viral Facebook post. “My body filled with lots of joy to know that my predominantly white University is paying tribute to the deaths in the black community. Its the littlest thing that just means so much to me.”
Others, though, took issue with the flag and asserted that “all lives matter” would have been a more appropriate, inclusive message for the university to have endorsed.
“[Black Lives Matter] has proved time and time again they are a racist hate group,” UVM alumnus Chris Dietze wrote on Facebook. “If they really cared about police brutality they’d be mad when someone of any color gets shot and killed by police who were unarmed.”
While this particular debate is nothing new when it comes to Black Lives Matter, the controversy over the university’s flag took a turn over the weekend when someone physically took it down without the administration’s knowing.
In an interview with The Washington Post, Maulucci described how the initially positive reaction to the flag quickly turned negative and he began to receiving complaints and threatening e-mails from people angry at the display. As disappointing was that the flag was removed, Maulucci said, it wasn’t surprising.
“It was upsetting that someone stole it, but I think it underscored the necessity for raising in the first place,” Maulucci said. “We’re proud of the fact that we’re contributing to that conversation. You can’t make progress unless you acknowledge that there’s a problem.”
Even through the first Black Lives Matter flag was pulled down, it didn’t take long for a replacement to be hoisted into the air courtesy of Pat Brown, the school’s director of student life, who bought another flag and painted it along with his wife.

Ferguson protest leader #Darren_Seals shot and found dead in a burning car | US news | The Guardian
▻https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/sep/08/ferguson-protest-leader-darren-seals-shot-dead-burning-car
#Ferguson protest leader Darren Seals was found dead early Tuesday morning in a car that had been set on fire. Seals had been shot, and St Louis County police said they were investigating his death as a homicide.
The 29-year-old’s death sent waves of shock and grief through the community of activists in Missouri who protested the police killing of unarmed black teenager #Michael_Brown in Ferguson in 2014.
[...]
Local activists were also troubled by the parallels between Seals’ death and the 2014 murder of 20-year-old Deandre Joshua, who was shot and left in a burning car on the same night a grand jury chose not to indict police officer Darren Wilson in Brown’s death. In all, according to one activist’s count, five other men in the St Louis area have been shot and left in burning cars since 2014.
“Many people are really worried. We don’t know if there’s some type of movement serial killer on the loose,” said Patricia Bynes, a protester and former Democratic committeewoman for Ferguson.
[...]
Seals was a proudly local activist and a fierce critic of the national Black Lives Matter movement. He had argued that prominent #Black_Lives_Matter leaders had hijacked the Ferguson protests and then failed to give enough back to the community that had catalyzed the movement. During a heated argument, he once hit Deray McKesson, one of the most nationally recognized movement activists.
As the principles of Black Lives Matter have gained increased national recognition from politicians, the White House and in the 2016 presidential campaign, some community activists still in Ferguson are struggling. Some have left town, and some have have trouble getting work because of their political activism, Bynes said. Activists are still fighting an uphill battle to reform policing, education and the economy, and to prevent violence. But national political and media attention have moved on to other police killings and other protests.
Several activists said that some of Seals’ criticisms of the national movement resonated with them.
“We all kind of felt like we were kind of getting other people rich and getting other people fame for our oppression,” Masri said.
“We were left here to suffer from the systemic abuse from the police. And, like, I don’t care about credit, as long as the job gets done. But the thing is, the job hasn’t got done.”
The national movement’s current demands “are in a language that I don’t speak”, his friend and fellow activist Tory Russell said. “This movement #jargon, this #terminology, are not for #working_people. The movement is not geared towards #working_class black people, and D Seals could always call that out.”
Y-a comme une filiation avec ce que l’on trouve dans les « démocraties » d’Amérique Centrale, comme le Honduras (où la démocratie est de retour depuis le débarquement du gauchiste local (comme au Brésil)). Les syndicalistes, et autres activistes un petit peu trop libres se retrouvent éliminés plus ou plus violemment, sans réaction bien franche de l’Etat. C’est ballot.
