BXAW Political Education Series
why does the bronx look the way it does? why does rent keep rising? why are the cops everywhere? why do our schools, hospitals, and housing keep getting worse while billions go to war?
none of it is an accident. and once you can see how it all connects, you can start to fight it.
across 10 modules, you'll build a framework for understanding our conditions in the bronx and get the tools you need to resist gentrification and imperialism. you'll learn to connect what's happening on 149th street to what's happening in palestine, congo, haiti, sudan, puerto rico, cuba, venezuela, iran, and burkina faso.
