Itssssssss the second annual Anarchist History Walking Tour!
April 30th, 6PM @ Percival Landing, Stcas (so called ‘olympia’)
Come learn about the history of struggle those in power would rather everyone forget – from combative demonstrations and blockades to acts of direct aid and care that pissed off nonprofits.
Our memory is a battlefield, our history is a weapon. The point isn’t to confine these to a nostalgic past but for our history to be a living part of our ongoing struggle that we draw inspiration and lessons from.

From Center for a Stateless Society by Logan Marie Glitterbomb
“Tax the rich” is an all too common refrain on the left which, thanks to left unity, has even been echoed by many self-proclaimed anarchists. “Taxation is theft” on the other hand is a slogan many anarchists are hesitant to repeat due to its association with right-libertarians despite it being far more consistent with anarchist ideals. When taxation is the main funding source for the military police state with only crumbs going towards an extremely inadequate welfare plantation system, why would anarchists want any more funding t ..read more

If there are two contemporary anarchist theorists whose work occupies and influences my thought the most, they are Kevin Carson and Wayne Price. Carson has spent a huge segment of his career not just reconstructing a mutualist political economy as an alternative to the anarchist default to the economics of Karl Marx but also making incredibly original contributions to the fields of decentralized technology/production and spontaneous organization theory. Wayne Price in turn has dedicated his mind to a task that at first seems who ..read more

My civil partner, Desmond Miller, who has died aged 81, was an anarchist who helped to set up and run Leeds Community Press as a printing and publishing co-operative led by its workers.
Aside from taking on all sorts of ordinary printing work, including posters and leaflets, the press was known for publishing alternative newspapers such as Leeds Other Paper and the Sheffield Anarchist, both of which made a sizeable contribution to street-level political debate in Yorkshire during the 1970s and 80s.
As it was a co-op, everyone did everything, f ..read more

English Summary
There is an ongoing discussion within the Anarchist Federation (AF) about gender balance in our media since the spring, when the issue dedicated to J. Hašek was published. The truth is that the majority of the texts published in our revues are by men, and men often play a central role in the texts themselves. We have therefore decided that in the future we will try to focus on this disproportion and eliminate it as much as possible. Furthermore, young queer people have expanded our ranks, and with their arrival, debates about the lan ..read more

Translated from Actualité de l’Anarchosyndicalisme.
Content warning: contains accounts of war crimes, including rape.
In the previous issue of Anarchosyndicalisme, the CNT-AIT echoed the call for solidarity from anarchists in Sudan.
Since a terrible war broke out on 15 April 2023 between two military factions – the Rapid Support Forces (or Janjaweed militias) against the official army – civilians have been living in a climate of “pure terror” because of a “ruthless and senseless conflict”, denounced by the UN with general indifference. At least 15,000 people have died ..read more
