Anonymous submission to Scenes from the Atlanta Forest As the sun sets on Earth Day, April 22nd, Earth Night begins… It is time for the sun to set also on the brand of environmentalist activism that always accompanies Earth Day. We have no use for false political fixes or publicity stunts, and nothing but hostility for campaigns which pretend that we can make everything right if we just practice the right habits or lifestyles. We know that the relentless monster of industry is responsible for environmental devestation. Our responsibility is its immediate destruction.  The wild is under c ..read more

Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info CONSTELLATION is seeking event proposals. On Saturday, May 25th, during the tabling event at CÉDA and CCGV, there will be space for both pre-planned and spontaneous activities – order and chaos in equal measure. We aspire not to curate a singular experience but rather to create a space for anarchists to gather, conspire, and share in a multitude of experiences. We’ll provide the space but we need you to fill it! We want to step outside the classic bookfair mould and move away from a workshop-centric event. This doesn’t mean you can’t propose a workshop ..read more

Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info Our weapons are courage and beautiful ideas. Every year in May, the blossoming of spring invites anarchists to reflect upon subversive ideas and practices, from throughout history to present day. Total destruction of all authority is the project that sets our hearts on fire. We are wary of political strategies, and instead propose an anarchy wherein the means and ends are coherent, without waiting for the ‘right moment’, without compromise. The fight for freedom is infinite, a constant which spans numerous lifetimes, and with endless possiblities. Only ..read more

Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info We’re happy to announce the launch of our online calendar platform, where anyone can publish events as part of Constellation. Simply go to https://constellation.noblogs.org/events and follow the link to add an event. One of our goals for this festival is to decentralize the organizing process. We want all anarchists in the region to feel empowered to make the last weekend of May their own. We strongly believe that more people doing more things will create a more interesting and rebellious weekend. We’ll be reading over submissions to mak ..read more

Image not associated with action Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info Police were invited to campus last week by McGill and pressured to charge someone by the administration just for some graffiti. When cops are invited onto campus they police and ruin young people’s lives. Universities need to be made places of sanctuary. Denunciations and the lessons of history have not worked so far. Yesterday, at night, we anarchists, armed with tools that anyone can find, committed our first acts of revenge, leaving our marks on the McGill administration building. We wait for no one to act. For libera ..read more

From No Trace Project [READ] [WEB] [PRINT] Note from the No Trace Project: We hope that this translation will help English-speaking anarchists to better understand and protect themselves against the dangers of DNA. We added many footnotes, either to add information or to explain our disagreements with the original text, especially in the section “A protocol for two“. Our footnotes are preceded by “N.T.P. note”, whereas the original footnotes are not. We did not include the original appendix which listed French forensic police laboratories and their suppliers, because we didn’t think it was rel ..read more

From No Trace Project [PRINT] Note from the No Trace Project: This text is a case study of video surveillance in France, and most of its content is based on the French context. However, we believe it can be useful to an international audience because understanding how video surveillance works in France can help to understand how it works in other places, and because a lot of technical, general information is scattered throughout the text. Some sections of the original zine that we felt were too focused on France have not been included in this translation. Introduction In just a few years, vide ..read more

Anonymous submission to MTL Counter-info First and foremost, I want to state that I was in no way involved in this year’s organization of the March 15th demonstration against police brutality. I knew some of the people involved in its organization before, and some of the people involved in the organization this year, but I only saw the organization evolve from afar. So yes, there was a new collective organizing the March 15th demonstration this year. During and after the demonstration, I’ve heard a number of critiques, some whispers between comrades, some more public. I, for one, want to addr ..read more

From No Trace Project [PRINT]          [READ] A communiqué, also sometimes called a reportback or hit report, is a report on (typically) illegal direct actions that is shared online via counter-info sites or in print publications.

It is written for anarchists, but could be useful to ..read more
