"ALWAYS HAS BEEN."

PIC(S) INFO: Spotlight on American anarchist agitation collective and/or revolutionary protest group, BLACK MASK, marching on Wall Street in the winter of early 1967 to protest the fiscal terrorist institutions of the American status quo in NYC, New York, USA. 📸: Larry Fink.

“The next target is Wall Street,” an anarchist collective known as Black Mask wrote in its January newsletter, 1967. On February 10th, around twenty-five members of the group, wearing black balaclavas and carrying giant skulls, took to the streets of the financial district and handed out this statement:

"WALL STREET IS WAR STREET...

...The traders in stocks and bones shriek for New Frontiers—but the coffins return to the Bronx and Harlem. Bull markets of murder deal in a stock exchange of death. Profits rise to the ticker tape of your dead sons. Poison gas RAINS on Vietnam. You cannot plead “WE DID NOT KNOW.” Television brings the flaming villages into the safety of your home. You commit genocide in the name of freedom.

BUT YOU TOO ARE THE VICTIMS!""

-- THE NEW YORKER, "Occupying Wall Street in 1967," by Rollo Romig, published on October 5, 2011

Was the 2024 US Presidential election irrelevant? Yes and no.

Was the 2024 US Presidential election irrelevant? Yes and no. If Trump and Kennedy do end the war in Ukraine, as promised, that will be a giant victory, because it will greatly reduce deaths, while reducing the risk of nuclear war. Any sane person should want that. If Trump and Kennedy do begin a clean up and anti-corruption campaign targeting the Deep State, EPA, FDA, etc., that will be hugely…

October 24, 1929 was Black Thursday. Here, police attempt to disperse thousands of customers from the brokerage houses in the Wall Street area, who milled about the portals of the N.Y. Stock Exchange in an effort to gain entrance on Broad St. Trading was proceeding at a record-breaking pace and billions of dollars in losses were added to those already sustained the day before.

MARCHING OFF TO "WAR STREET" IN '67 -- THE "SUNNY" SIXTIES TAKES A LEFT TURN INTO GRIM REALITY.

PIC(S) INFO: Mega spotlight on American anarchist/ protest/ revolutionary group, BLACK MASK, on their way to Wall St. in the winter of February 10, 1967, to protest the fiscal terrorist institutions of the American status quo in NYC, New York. 📸: Larry Fink.

THE ANARCHIST LIBRARY: "How did BLACK MASK fit into the New York political and arts scenes because it seems as if you went out of your way to ridicule and challenge ideologues of all stripes?"

BEN MOREA (former BM agitator/artist/anarchist): "A lot of political people questioned what we did saying we should only attack society on the political front and that we shouldn't care about art. However we felt it was best to take action in the place where you were and that as artists these issues were important to us.

Many of the hippies distrusted us and the politicos hated us because they couldn't control us or understand what we were doing. As for the people in the art world I'm sure most of them thought we were crazy."

Star Trek comedy gag where Sarek is explaining to Spock why Vulcan parents cannot be as close to their children as humans are meanwhile Tuvok’s in the background buying his children two large fries (to share amongst them) on their way back from the park because they all got good grades this year - not perfect, but progress is always to be commended.
