This Day in Anarchist History: The Spanish Revolution subMedia 2024-07-19 | On this day in anarchist history, July 19th of 1936, fascists attempted to take control of Spain by force.While most of the more liberal elements of Spanish society rested on their laurels, the anarchists were preparing to defend against the fascist coup in the making.On that day officers from the Spanish army led their troops into several cities around the country but in Barcelona the anarchists were prepared for them. By the next afternoon, anarchists were in full control of the city.In the years to follow anarchists would play a major role in the Spanish Civil War but sadly their tenuous alliance with the broader left would prove to be a grave miscalculation and Spain would eventually fall to the fascists.

Ce jour-là dans l’histoire de l’anarchisme: Lexécution de Sacco et Vanzetti subMedia 2024-08-26 | En ce jour de l'histoire anarchiste, le 23 août 1927, les immigrants italo-américains Nicola Sacco et Bartolomeo Vanzetti ont été exécutés sur la chaise électrique près de Boston, dans le Massachusetts, pour avoir prétendument volé une usine et assassiné un agent de sécurité et le trésorier sept ans plus tôt.De l'avis général, leur procès n'était qu'une mascarade. Ils ont été déclarés coupables même après que quelqu'un d'autre ait avoué les crimes.Leurs funérailles ont été suivies par 10 000 personnes et la couronne placée au-dessus de leur cercueil indiquait : « En attendant l'heure de la vengeance ». Les anarchistes du monde entier allaient bientôt tenir cette promesse de vengeance.

Este Día en la Historia Anarquista: La Revolución Española subMedia 2024-07-19 | En este día de la historia anarquista, el 19 de julio de 1936, los fascistas intentaron tomar el control de España por la fuerza.Mientras la mayoría de los elementos más liberales de la sociedad española se dormían en los laureles, los anarquistas se preparaban para defenderse del golpe fascista en ciernes. Ese día, oficiales del ejército español dirigieron sus tropas a varias ciudades del país, pero en Barcelona los anarquistas estaban preparados. A la tarde siguiente, los anarquistas tenían el control total de la ciudad. En los años siguientes, los anarquistas desempeñarían un papel importante en la Guerra Civil española, pero lamentablemente su tenue alianza con la izquierda más amplia resultaría ser un grave error de cálculo y España acabaría cayendo en manos de los fascistas.

Dans les années qui suivirent, les anarchistes jouèrent un rôle majeur dans la guerre civile espagnole mais, malheureusement, leur alliance ténue avec la gauche au sens large se révéla être une grave erreur de calcul et l'Espagne tomba finalement aux mains des fascistes.
Este Día en la Historia Anarquista: La Revuelta del Vinagre subMedia 2024-06-13 | En este día de la historia anarquista, el 13 de junio de 2013 recordamos La Revuelta del Vinagre, una serie de protestas convertidas en disturbios a lo largo de las tierras ocupadas por Brasil.El 13 de junio de 2013, las manifestaciones en curso por una subida de la feria de tránsito en São Paulo, Brasil, estallaron en un levantamiento nacional después de que la policía tomara medidas enérgicas, deteniendo a 60 personas simplemente por poseer vinagre para protegerse contra el uso de gases lacrimógenos.Pronto las manifestaciones se extendieron a muchas otras ciudades y se convirtieron en uno de los primeros usos documentados de la táctica del Black Bloc en el país. Las tácticas violentas y disruptivas de la Revuelta del Vinagre pusieron de manifiesto el gran abismo que separa a la izquierda radical de la institucional y ha llevado incluso a los progresistas a confundir a los anarquistas con la extrema derecha.
Ce jour-là dans lhistoire de lanarchisme: La Révolte du Vinaigre subMedia 2024-06-13 | En ce jour de l'histoire anarchiste, le 13 juin 2013, nous nous souvenons de la Révolte du vinaigre, une série de manifestations qui se sont transformées en émeutes sur les terres occupées par le Brésil.Le 13 juin 2013, les manifestations qui se poursuivaient à São Paulo, au Brésil, au sujet d'une augmentation de la taxe sur les transports en commun, se sont transformées en un soulèvement national après que la police a sévèrement réprimé, arrêtant 60 personnes pour avoir simplement possédé du vinaigre afin de se protéger contre l'utilisation de gaz lacrymogènes.Les manifestations se sont rapidement étendues à de nombreuses autres villes et sont devenues l'une des premières utilisations documentées de la tactique du Black Bloc dans le pays. Les tactiques violentes et perturbatrices de la Révolte du vinaigre ont mis en lumière le fossé qui sépare la gauche radicale de la gauche institutionnelle et ont même conduit les progressistes à faire l'amalgame entre les anarchistes et l'extrême droite.

Este día en la historia anarquista: El caso Haymarket subMedia 2024-05-04 | ¿Has oído la historia de por qué celebramos el Primero de Mayo?En Chicago, en 1886, la policía asesinó a dos personas en una huelga general por una jornada laboral de 8 horas. El 4 de mayo, una manifestación para vengarse provocó disturbios cuando se lanzó una bomba contra la policía. En el tiroteo que siguió murieron varios policías y manifestantes, y muchos más resultaron heridos. El Estado comenzó entonces a detener a disidentes conocidos y condenó a muerte a la mayoría de ellos, aunque muchos de los detenidos ni siquiera estaban allí. Los anarquistas de todo el mundo llevan más de un siglo vengando a los mártires de Haymarket con huelgas, piquetes y ataques clandestinos.
This Day in Anarchist History: The Haymarket Affair subMedia 2024-05-04 | Have you heard the story of why we celebrate May Day?In Chicago in 1886 police murdered two people at a general strike for an 8 hour work day. A rally for revenge on May 4th led to a riot when a bomb was thrown at the police. Several cops and protesters were killed in the ensuing gunfire and many more were injured. The state then began rounding up known dissidents and sentenced most of them to death even though many of those arrested weren’t even there. For over a century anarchists around the world have been avenging the Haymarket Martyrs through strikes, pickets and clandestine attacks.
Ce jour-là dans lhistoire de lanarchisme: Laffaire Haymarket subMedia 2024-05-04 | Avez-vous entendu l'histoire de la raison pour laquelle nous célébrons le 1er mai ?En 1886, à Chicago, la police a assassiné deux personnes lors d'une grève générale pour l'obtention d'une journée de travail de huit heures. Un rassemblement pour se venger, le 4 mai, a débouché sur une émeute lorsqu'une bombe a été lancée sur la police. Plusieurs policiers et manifestants ont été tués dans la fusillade qui a suivi et de nombreux autres ont été blessés. L'État a alors commencé à rassembler les dissidents connus et a condamné la plupart d'entre eux à la peine de mort, même si nombre des personnes arrêtées n'étaient même pas présentes. Depuis plus d'un siècle, les anarchistes du monde entier vengent les martyrs de Haymarket par des grèves, des piquets de grève et des attaques clandestines.
82 Cities, 19 Countries, 6 Continenents, 483 Arrests: A Recap of the A15 Actions subMedia 2024-04-21 | On April 15th, a historic resistance spread across 82 cities, spanning 18 countries and 6 continents coordinating economic blockades in solidarity with Palestine.Inspired by the Palestinian resilience and anti-colonialist struggle, protesters worldwide autonomously carried out actions at nearly a dozen ports, blockaded three international airports, and shut down numerous commercial highways. The movement shut down operations in 20 factories worldwide, in a rage against their complicity in the occupation of Palestine.Why did the call for economic blockades on April 15th spread like wildfire across the world? 75 years of occupation is too long. The destruction and genocide in Gaza was the final straw.The fight for Palestinian freedom cannot be won through symbolic actions. The actions taken on April 15th cost hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars to an economy that profits off of colonialism and war. Escalation has just begun.Palestine must be free in our lifetime.

Gaza is An Image of the Future subMedia 2024-02-15 | A look at Israel’s AI generated war on Gaza and the Western Governments and Tech Corporations who are invested in it. For months now Israel has waged a brutal bombing campaign against Gaza. With state of the art technology, the IDF uses algorithms to generate a seemingly unending list of potential targets with a low filter for collateral damage resulting the highest rate of civilian casualties of any war of this century. In the face of political backlash and large protests, Western governments have doubled down on their unwavering support of the Israeli state and their war. But why exactly do western governments continue to support such a deeply unpopular war? What is their material interest in the advanced weaponry and surveillance tools of the Israeli state? #gaza #freepalestine #ai #artificialintelligence #ai #machinelearning #technology #datascience #google #amazon #israel #elbitsystems #rafah #drones #dronestrike
We Want to be Free: An Interview with Klee Benally subMedia 2024-01-05 | On December 30th, Klee Benally joined the ancestors. Klee was a Diné anarchist, author, musician, land defender and community organizer based in the occupied lands of so-called Flagstaff Arizona. He was an influential and powerful voice who consistently challenged anarchists in Turtle Island to kill the colonizer in their own heads, and to incorporate an anticolonial analysis into their political frameworks.This interview was conducted with Klee in 2019, as part of Trouble #18: ACAB. In it, he discusses the colonial roots of policing in the so-called United States, and the experiences of racial profiling faced by Indigenous people living in the cities that dot the colonial border between the US and Mexico.Those who haven't done so should check out Klee's writings online, including his book No Spiritual Surrender: Indigenous Anarchy in Defense of the Sacred, published in 2023 by Detritus Books.detritusbooks.com

The State is a Racket – Repression in the Battle to Stop Cop City subMedia 2023-11-07 | Updates from the Stop Cop City movement in light of recent RICO charges. Supporters will be mobilizing for a Block Cop City gathering from NOV. 10th-13th, 2023. Check out blockcopcity.org for more info.The Racketeer-Influenced Corrupt Organizations or RICO Act has had a long and sordid history as a tool of state repression in the United States. Originally intended to dismantle large organized crime groups like the Mafia, this set of laws criminalizing membership in organizations engaged in “racketeering activity” has been applied to groups as diverse as the Black Liberation Army, the Puerto Rican independence movement, Donald Trump, and Atlanta elementary schoolteachers. By levying trumped up charges and attempting to hold the entire movement culpable for specific actions, proponents of Cop City had hoped to divide and conquer by separating the more militant segments of the movement from their broader base of support. But thanks to the steadfast solidarity of the Stop Cop City movement, this has so far been unsuccessful.As the first 61 RICO defendants are arraigned, the movement holds its breath. Public support is needed now more than ever. There’s still time to join the Block Cop City gathering in Atlanta from Nov 10th through 13th, or organize an autonomous solidarity action near you.Cop City will never be built.#DefendAtlantaForest #StopCopCity
Blocking Israels War Machine subMedia 2023-10-31 | Early on the morning of October 30th, a crowd descended on INKAS Armored, a Toronto-based defence contractor with ties to the Israeli Defence Forces. Responding to a call from Palestinian trade unions for workers around the world to shut down exports to the Israeli military, the protesters set up picket lines to block access to the facility. The Israeli state is carrying out a massacre in Gaza with bombs, tanks and weapons manufactured in several countries in the so-called West. As the world watches the unfolding situation in horror, one way of moving beyond vigils and rallies entails finding effective ways to target this supply of arms.#Gaza #Palestine #Occupation #FreePalestine

System Fail 25: The Urge to Destroy subMedia 2023-07-31 | As humanity reckons with a never ending cavalcade of catastrophes, large segments of the population have succumbed to despair or distraction through culture wars or a series of vain cultural phenomena. [Insert Barbenheimer joke here.]Many youth, particularly in France, have channeled this hopelessness into rage. For the past several months the country had been seeing a series of strikes and riots in response to the raising of the retirement age, and these riots intensified in late June after the police murder of 17-year-old Nahel Merzouk during a traffic stop. As the dust settles, inept politicians blame bad parenting and TikTok.Meanwhile in Peru, protesters from around the country have gathered in Lima calling for the resignation of President Dina Boluarte and the dissolution of congress.Hashtags: #ParisRiots #Barbenheimer #MitchMcConnell #Peru #FranceRiots #FranceProtest #France #Nahel #Marseille #Nanterre #Macron #FranceOnFire #Stroke #MitchGlitch #Francocide #DinaBoluarte #PeruEnDictadora #Lima #PeruProtestsChapters:0:00 Intro and Theme1:16 Stroke Education with Mitch McConnell2:13 Humanity’s Hopelessness5:58 Rioting Across France10:31 Protests in Peru11:38 Outro and Credits
System Fail 24: Pride and Prejudice subMedia 2023-07-03 | Homophobia and Transphobia on the rise in the so-called US, a failed coup attempt in Russia and protests in Argentina in this 24th installment of System Fail.As corporate celebrations of pride seek to commodify queer culture into consumer markets, the far right has begun to fight back against these ruthless pride-based advertising campaigns; by pushing for the erasure of LGBTQ people from the public life! Threatened by a perceived challenge to their dubious “traditional morality” conservatives have taken to the internet to express their distaste while elements further to the right have attempted to disrupt pride events with varying success. In spite of the uptick of bigoted vitriol, radical LBGTQ people have begun to organize autonomous community self-defence groups. We caught up with Scott Branson, author of Practical Anarchism and cohost of Final Straw Radio about the current state of queer resistance in the US. Meanwhile in Russia, Yevgeny Prigozhin and his mercs in the Wagner Group set off on a short-lived and surreal march to Moscow. Despite its failure, this attempted coup has succeeded in highlighting some of the tensions within the Russian state. It’s anyone’s guess what will happen going forward. Finally, in Jujuy, so-called Argentina, Indigenous land defenders have been joined by farmers and striking teachers as the Argentinian state attempts to crack down on disruptive protest tactics and open up more lands to mining.For more information on the upcoming Bash Back convergence, check out Bashback.infoCheck out ‘Surviving the Future: Abolitionist Queer Strategies’ Co-edited by Scott Branson and available on PM Presspmpress.org/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1296Chapters: 0:00 Intro and Theme2:13 Homophobia on the Rise7:33 A Putsch Against Putin11:49 Argentina Protests12:53 Outro and Credits#Pride #Pride2023 #PrideMonth #RainbowCapitalism #Russia #Argentina #WagnerGroup #Jujuy #QueerResistance #vivajujuy #jujuyargentina #coup #mutiny #wagnerpmc #tinprigozhinwar #putin #ProudMonth

System Fail 23: Life Over Lithium subMedia 2023-06-19 | As guilt mounts over humanity's inaction in the face of the climate crisis, industrialized capitalists have adapted their tactics to meet the demands of a more environmentally conscious market; by selling the image of sustainability!Touted as the green transportation of the future, demand has exploded for electric cars. This has, in turn, increased the demand for lithium and other rare earth metals, with corporations rushing to open as many new mines as possible. Indigenous elders have been at the forefront of resistance to this latest wave of extractive capitalism, particularly in Peehee Mu’huh also known as Thacker Pass, Nevada, where the Ox Sam Indigenous Women’s camp has been resisting the construction of what would be North America’s largest lithium mine.Later, subMedia’s nihilist weather droid, UV-400 brings us the latest updates in the climate crisis with a global weather report.

System Fail 22: Sharpen Your Machetes subMedia 2023-06-05 | Tensions in Brazil over a bill threatening Indigenous territories, the Bwa Kale vigilante justice movement in Haiti, and anti-police riots in Wales, in this episode of System Fail. This episode of System Fail highlights the tensions between Indigenous communities and the settler colonial state in Brazil. The lower house of Brazil's congress passed a bill, PL 490, which aims to open up Indigenous territories for mining and capitalist development, subjecting established Indigenous land claims to legal challenges.

Also tensions rise over the fate of 2 squats in a posh neighborhood in Barcelona. As technological advances in Artificial Intelligence are poised render the labour of millions obsolete, humans in industrialized nations must decide whether to succumb to existential despair or embrace their new robot overlords for their kitschy novelty.Meanwhile in Sudan, the regular army and the paramilitary forces known as the Rapid Support Forces or RSF have been waging a war for control of the country. As usual, many civilians have been caught in the crossfire. Sick of the constant warring and scarcity of resources, people have organized thousands of Resistance Committees to coordinate large-scale mutual aid networks growing into one of the most significant revolutionary movements in the world.Also tensions have flared in Bonanova, a posh neighbourhood in Barcelona, over the fate of 2 anarchist squats. Desokupa, a fascist goon squad who contract out their services to evict squatters, has vowed to take back the squats but anarchist resistance has been swift and fierce.For more on the Resistance Committees in Sudan:resistancecommittee.com/enmuzankatabat.wordpress.comhttps://www.greenleft.org.au/sites/default/files/the_revolutionary_charter_for_establishing_peoples_power_-_a_copy_to_the_sudanese_people_-_january_2023.pdffacebook.com/people/Sudanese-Anarchists-Gathering-/100069630044512organisemagazine.org.uk/dispatch-from-khartoum-10-internationalFor more on El Kubo and La Ruina: https://t.me/NuestrasCasasSonTrinxeras instagram.com/csolaruina twitter.com/csolaruinaChapters:0:00 Intro and Theme1:44 AI Rising6:56 The Fight for Sudan11:49 Squat Evictions13:47 Outro and Credits#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #Sudan #Darfur #ResistanceComittee #Barcelona #Bonanova #Sareb #Squat #Squatters #Squattheplanet #Success #Business #Crypto #FastandFuriousX #Tesla #TuckerCarlson #GeoffreyHinton #Skynet #ChatGPT #Dalle #Midjourney #News #BreakingNews #AnarchistNews #Anarchy

System Fail 19: The Woke Mind Virus subMedia 2022-12-05 | From ‘Woke Mind’ to COVID-19, Dee examines the effects various strains of viruses are having on humanity in the 19th installment of System Fail. As the news cycle focuses on an epic battle between those infected with the Woke Mind Virus and so-called defenders of free speech, another virus, virtually forgotten by western governments, has sparked tensions in China. Mired by extreme lock-down measures coupled with food and medicine shortages, people in China have become increasingly frustrated with the country's Zero-COVID policy.In Zhengzhou workers reached their breaking point and occupied the massive Foxconn factory dubbed 'iPhone city'. Days later in a predominantly-Uighur neighborhood in Urumqi, Xinjiang province, a fire broke out in a high-rise building, killing at least 10 people.And in other news, in Elon Musk's quest to rid Twitter of wokeness, he has laid off over half the staff, reinstated a number of banned right-wing accounts, and is purging anarchists and antifascists. #Twitter #TwitterExodus #twitterdumpsterfire #ElonMusk #China #FoxConn #tesla #spacex #nasa #twittermemes #tech #socialmedia #coronaviris #Covid #Covid-19 #socialdistancing #Stayhome #quarantine #wearamask #KanyeWest #Yeezy #ye #iphone #apple #business #fifa #football #worldcup #health 0:00 Intro: A message from Fifa1:01 Deprogramming Wokeness2:05 An update on COVID4:47 iRiot - A country on lockdown10:33 Twitter Takeover12:15 Outro and Credits
Kolektiva: Social Media By and For Anarchists subMedia 2022-12-01 | This is our chance to re-imagine social media, and our relationship to it. To rediscover the lost promise of the Internet. To construct new digital worlds in the burning shell of the old. And to do it together.The old paradigms are dying. It’s long past time that those who want to overthrow this miserable system break our addiction to data-mining surveillance platforms, built and maintained by our enemies.Kolektiva.social is a Mastodon instance built by and for anarchists. It is just one small node in a larger decentralized network called the Fediverse. Unlike other Twitter alternatives like Koo or Hive, the software and apps that power this network are all open source, with each server setting its own rules, free from the influence of ad-driven algorithms and billionaire tech-bro CEOs.There is great potential here, but whether we realize that potential depends on all of us. That’s why we’re calling on you to get involved.http://Kolektiva.info#twitterexodus #elonmusk
