The $600 million package (before lawyers’ fees) is touted as the biggest settlement in state history, but it fails to remind the public that it was also the biggest man-made disaster in the nation’s history.
We are now in the midst of a global pandemic depression. With cases surging past 25 million worldwide and approaching one million dead, the United States leads the world, with 6 million cases and 180,000 dead. That reality has given rise to a global economic depression that we have not seen the likes of since the Great Depression.

Last week, tech leaders spoke to Congress on Capitol Hill. Google’s Sundar Pichai, Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Apple CEO Tim Cook and Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos all spoke from prepared remarks. As the US economy shrank by 32.9%, Amazon’s share price rose by half, and Facebook’s growth rate approached 60%.
On July 6, when President Trump signed an executive order proposing a ban on the youth-oriented social media platform TikTok, it was natural to remember stories of TikTok users obstructing Trump’s June 20 Tulsa rally. TikTok youth didn’t miss the message, as 18-year-old Anekha Singh told NBC News, “Our ability to express ourselves is something he doesn’t want.” Eighteen-year-old climate activist turned police protestor Shayla Turner told the New York Times, “I want to see an entire revolution led by youth. I feel like we are definitely capable of that. We have the power, and we have the voices.”
The massive, spontaneous uprising of 2020, in response to the police murder of George Floyd, was possibly the largest and broadest mass movement in American history. According to one poll, some 26 million people participated in the movement against police terror that came to be called Black Lives Matter, a diverse outpouring of people of all colors and walks of life, a majority of whom were white. The scale and power of the uprising express a total transformation of the relationship between the historic African American freedom movement, on the one hand, and the burgeoning class movement against poverty and exploitation on the other.
“The dogmas of the quiet past are inadequate to the stormy present. The occasion is piled high with difficulty, and we must rise with the occasion. As our case is new, so we must think anew and act anew. We must disenthrall ourselves, and then we shall save our country.” — Abraham Lincoln, 1862.

The people who rule America are desperate for us to fight police terror separate from those conditions that call into question their rule. They are desperate to stop the political and ideological awakening of the American people. They must deepen the destitution and, at the same time, prevent and contain social upheavals. This can only be done with a fascist police state.
With Corona virus cases spiking across the country, America is on the verge of forcing millions of people into extreme danger. Suddenly, everyone from CEOs, the President, state governors and the corporate media are calling for schools to open “to save the economy”.

The crisis we are in is vast and deadly, and yet it offers the possibility of a way forward. The force for changes lies within the millions who have lost their jobs and lining up for food, the hundreds of thousands seeking medical care to treat the coronavirus, and the millions who can’t pay their rent.
