Dear friends,
Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.
On the last day of October 2025, leaders from the 21 nations of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum will meet in the city of Gyeongju in the Republic of Korea (South Korea) for the organisation’s 33rd summit. Since its founding in 1989 in Canberra, Australia, APEC has promoted building a zone of ‘free and open trade’ – a concept outlined by the Bogor Goals, which came out of the summit in Indonesia in 1994.

As predicted, the toxic atmosphere unleashed by far-right mischief makers on social media, extremists on the streets and their appeasement via a Dutch auction between Labour and Tories as to which can ‘reduce numbers’ the fastest and the most, has led to unprecedented levels of racial harassment and attack. In this week’s calendar, among incidents of racist abuse in a mosque and the beating of a 60-year-old Afghan man who suffered a broken foot, we document the horrific attack on an Asian woman in Walsall.

Margaret Kimberley, BAR Executive Editor and Senior Columnist
The federal government shutdown is a fight between Trump and democrats, but it is also emblematic of the tenuous nature of the welfare state in the U.S. The duopoly parties are both committed to carrying out austerity policies on behalf of the ruling class.
Tuesday, 28 October 225 — Palestine is still the issue
On The Electronic Intifada livestream last week I reported on the arrest of Dr. Rahmeh Aladwan, a British-Palestinian medical doctor facing repression in the UK a couple of days before our broadcast.
The arrest was a clear case of political interference in the supposedly independent UK medical tribunals and licensing system, and only the latest sign of a wider purge of the National Health Service of solidarity with Palestinians.
Watch the whole segment in the video above.

Gen Z-led uprisings across the Global South point to long-term socioeconomic and environmental crises caused by neoliberalism. Yet they have often been coopted by entrenched social classes. Can their energy be channelled towards progressive ends?

I celebrated my 80th birthday in July and great fun was had by all. However, maintaining this site to the level I prefer has become a major headache for me, due largely to ongoing and extremely frustrating health issues. I have kept this site going, pretty much without a break, since 2002. I have published 30,536 articles over this time as well as continuing to write my own essays. I don’t want to stop publishing relevant material here but I just can’t maintain a regular flow of stories, so expect an erratic output but this is a massive and useful resource that hopefully will be fully accessible for many years to come.
All the best in these troubled times

“Like Nazi Germany, Israel teaches its citizens to feel righteous about killing — and like Nazi Germany, it may only change when shattered by external force.”
Author’s Note: This essay traces how both nazi racial supremacy and zionist Jewish supremacy were structured by Eurocentric doctrines of conquest, purity, and civilizational entitlement and how they are ideologically entangled through their inheritance of colonial logics.

Omar Ba (Senegal), Promenade masquée, 2016.
Dear friends,
Greetings from the desk of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research.
In February 2025, Senegal’s Court of Auditors released a report that found ‘anomalies’ in the management of public finances between 2019 and 2024, during the presidency of Macky Sall (2012–2024). For instance, the court found that while Sall’s government had suggested that the budget deficit for 2023 was 4.9% of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), it was in fact 12.3%. The court went to work on this reconstruction of public finances because of a very significant accusation made by Senegal’s new prime minister, Ousmane Sonko, at a press conference in Dakar in September 2024. What the auditors found, and what the International Monetary Fund (IMF) validated, was that the actual debt ratio in 2023 was 99.7% of GDP – not 74.7% – and that the deficit had been underestimated by 5.6% of GDP (in August 2025, the debt ratio was revised to 111% of GDP).

It’s been reported this morning that the UK government is preparing to dramatically increase the price the NHS pays for medicines. |
 |
|
This is a direct result of months of pressure from Donald Trump and his mates in the pharmaceutical industry, who are seeking to boost their already inflated profits. If this goes ahead, we will likely see even more precious NHS funds diverted away from care delivery and into the pockets of big pharma bosses. It could also have major impacts on availability and access of lifesaving medication. Our movement needs to raise the alarm – immediately – about what is happening. We have 4 different actions you can take – please spend a few minutes doing as many of them as you can today! ⬇️ |
