Czechia: Activities of the Anarchist Federation in 2023

From Anarchistické Federace, January 29, 2024

The Anarchist Federation (AF) has been operating continuously since 1995 and is without a doubt the longest operating anarchist organization in Czechia. But that doesn't mean it claims a monopoly on local anti-authoritarian organization. On the contrary, it supports organisational diversity as it is a healthy aspect of the anarchist movement. This means, among other things, that a significant part of the membership of our Federation is also active in other, more specifically targeted groups. Some of us are active in, for example, the Food not Bombs, Limity jsme my, Dekonstrukce, Opravdu dobré squaty (ODS), NoLog, Sdílené domy, MSDN, Trhlina, Cocina Perdida, Výbor na obranu revoluce v Rojavě and others.

ELENA PURGATORIO; OR, A BRIEF HISTORY OF THE GALLEANISTI

From The Transmetropolitan Review

Like most anarchist women, we know very little about Elena Purgatorio. She was born Elena Alfonsi on August 4, 1891 in the ancient town of Gualdo Tadino, nestled beneath the Perugian mountains in the center of the Italian peninsula. Along with thousands of others, Elena left Italy and immigrated across the Atlantic to the US, registering under her birth name at Ellis Island, New York on August 17, 1907. She was sixteen years old, and seemingly alone.

Boundless Conformity

Received via email

Social Democracy had decayed, said Walter Benjamin in his 1940 essay “On the Concept
of History,” without the expectation that revolution would make “the continuum of history explode.” Already, within three decades, Social Democrats had managed virtually to erase the name of Blanqui, associated as it was with insurrection, “though it had been the rallying sound that had reverberated through the 19th century.”

Finding God in Punk Anarchism: Life in a gnostic underground

From Commonweal (February 2024 issue)
By Aaron Lake Smith
January 30, 2024

I sought and found the Holy Spirit elsewhere, in punk music, which quickly led to anarchist hardcore music, radical politics, rioting, rallies, and trips across the world to disrupt World Economic Forum meetings. The anti-globalization movement was in full swing at the time. I embraced this world based on gut emotions, rather than sustained study of all the Noam Chomsky and Howard Zinn books we shoplifted from Barnes & Noble.

Biography of Anarchist Fighters of Iran’s Geography (No. 9)

From The Federation of Anarchism Era
December 20, 2023

I was born in 2003. The ups and downs of my life have not been like those of other comrades. However, the pain of others has bothered me since my school days. Whenever I asked my family, they said to mind my business. But, how was it that I was in a warm dress in winter, and I saw many people on the street looking for a piece of bread in the trash cans in the coldest time of the year?
