Anthony Ali
Detroit-born educator based in Doral and Detroit, building full-time revolutionary infrastructure.
About Me
I’m Ali — a school teacher born and raised in Detroit, now working from Doral. Over the past 10 years, I have worked in healthcare and education as an instructor, clinician, and coach. Unfortunately, American institutions do not provide for the cost of living of their labor force.As such, I’m transitioning out of the classroom and into full-time revolutionary organizing. Not as a side hustle. Not as content. But as infrastructure — built from below, funded by the people.My work includes:-Community education (free, radical, and locally grounded)
-Zine and curriculum development
-Housing protection organizing
-International solidarity (Palestine, Haiti, Congo, Philippines)
-General Strike mobilizationMy home is the North End and Woodward Village neighborhoods of Detroit. I work alongside General Strike Detroit/Miami, PSL, DSA, and local housing justice networks.The orgs told me they can't fund revolutionaries full time.
So I’m building something that does.You’re not donating. You’re hiring a revolutionary. You are actively dismantling the system that works for the few, and sustaining a cog in the people's machine.
FIELDWORK IN MOTION:-Weekly outreach, flyering, and recruiting in Miami-Dade-Groundwork laid for People’s Council organizing in Detroit-Revolutionary curriculum development for schools, zines, and community circles-Planning and preparation for youth summer classes in science and political literacy-On-the-ground coalition support with PSL, DSA, and housing defense networks-Direct engagement with internationalist organizers and political educators-Daily writing, documentation, and street-level political laborThis isn’t theory. It’s practice.

WHAT I’M BUILDINGThis isn’t a brand. This is a blueprint.I’m building revolutionary infrastructure:-Free political education rooted in community, not institutions-Local People’s Councils to govern our own blocks-Tenant protection networks to stop eviction and gentrification-Summer classes in science and political education for youth-Global solidarity campaigns: Gaza, Haiti, Congo, the Philippines-Full-time revolutionary labor, sustained by the people — not nonprofits-Pathways to mass work stoppage, mutual aid, and General Strikes-Long-term plans to create community centers for education, organizing, and youth leadershipThe system says: “We don’t work like that.”
So I’m creating something that does.
RESOURCES IN DEVELOPMENTI’m currently creating:-A revolutionary curriculum for schools and political education spaces, focused on science, critical thinking, and collective civic engagement.-Zines on housing, liberation, science, and internationalism-Street organizing kits (flyers, scripts, visual explainers)-Outreach playbooks for youth and neighborhood organizers-Reading lists and discussion guidesAs tools drop, they’ll be uploaded here — freely and publicly.
