Today's protest round up is an epic one ...

Starting in Santiago de Compostela, where thousands are in the street today to protest a giant cellulose factory which will pollute their local environment and use millions of gallons of water.

Today’s strike by workers at the Pasargad Alloy Steel Complex in Fars, part of a broader wave of labor unrest this year, stretching from South Pars, where 5,000 workers took to the streets, to refineries in southern Iran protesting against the regime’s exploitative contractors.

Workers are protesting wage discrimination, severe economic hardship, provision of safety equipment and the failure to pay long-overdue benefits.

A student at San Francisco State University approaches Senator Scott Wiener asking him to answer questions regarding a bill he backed that would supposedly criminalise pro Palestine dissent.

It really shows up how lightly politicians get off in the media when you see them crumble under the simplest questioning from a member of the public.

That's it for now, but I'm going to wax lyrical for a minute.

Something *huge* is happening around the world this year.

The genocide in Palestine and the global resistance to it has removed the mask of managed democracy, and try as they might, they cannot reverse it.

People across the globe are figuring out that capitalism will kill us, and they're doing something about it.
