Another in a (hopefully) weekly series of posts with miscellaneous interesting reading / viewing material.
Earlier this week, I stumbled across the Albert Einstein Institution online — “a nonprofit organization founded by Dr. Gene Sharp in 1983 to advance the study and use of strategic nonviolent action…” The site has an awesome online library (click on the “Resources” tab) of material, great stuff for people looking for additional ways to push back against authoritarianism. A 2-page flyer, “198 Methods of Nonviolent Action,” is the sort of thing that you can print out and hang on a wall for inspiration.
In a similar vein, the ICNC (International Center on Nonviolent Conflict) hosts an excellent monograph by Michael A. Beer — Civil Resistance Tactics in the 21st Century.
The Justice Department released a massive pile of Epstein documents on January 29 — a preliminary review reveals some very ugly stuff.
Wonkette hosts an excellent discussion of the mental gymnastics displayed by right wingers attempting to wrap their heads about women protesting against ICE.
The 50501 Friday Briefing for 1/30/2026 hosts its own excellent collection of reading material.
