From the fires of recent events, the palpability of brown anarchy burns brighter than ever. Years in the making, this piece aims to provide an accessible introduction to the topic of anarchy, and its relevance to brown people in search of justice and freedom. In it, readers are offered concepts that can enable other forms of assembling and resisting. The text is an attempt to shift our perceptions, to recognize the forms of everyday anarchy and resistance that our communities embody: to tap into the potential of these forces, and foment ungovernable brown insurgencies.
From Athens Indymedia
The anarchist publisher, bookseller, and translator of "Free Press" publications, Giorgos Garbis, passed away on Wednesday, June 25th, in the afternoon. The death of George Garbis, founder of the anarchist publisher "Free Press," marks the end of the historical era of a generation of Greek anarchists who had an enormous contribution. George Garbis, born in 1947, joined the anarchist movement in May 1968, influenced by the events in France.
From CounterPunch by Ron Jacobs
It seems so long ago, but the movement against global capitalism that featured mass protests against meetings of capital’s biggest criminals and powerbrokers (usually one and the same) had center stage a mere twenty-five years ago. For those who participated, it was an exhilarating time filled with confrontation, conversation, debate and determination represented by the decision of so many to risk prison and injury.

From The Final Straw Radio
As we enter into the 2025 Week of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners, we’re sharing a discussion with three anarchists doing prisoner support in different national contexts, prompted by topics brought by the guests. You’ll hear first from Moshe of ABC Belarus, then Nicole of the Solidarity Apothecary and finally from Anya of Solidarity Zone speak on topics such as service work in solidarity, gendered dynamics of care work, difficulties in organizing ongoing and longterm anti-repression work from within exile and diaspora communities, burnout and self-care.
Guest Topic of the Week entry chosen by thecollective from Anathema Volume 11 Issue 1 Summer 2025 - Has Anarchist Muay Thai Gone Too Far? Some Questions for the movement
A quick note: Anarchist martial arts culture is a new phenomenon in the United States. It is generally a welcome one in the author’s view. Here’s a few questions the author is pondering.

To break the isolation to which Alfredo Cospito is subjected, in particular through the almost complete blocking of mail, his supporters are calling for a massive letter writing to him.

Anas Hmam is an anarchist activist, committed to the struggles against colonialism and racism, in particular for the Palestinian cause, in Brussels. He has been detained in a closed centre for undocumented migrants in Belgium for almost a month and a half. He is threatened with deportation to Morocco, where he risks being arrested because of his anarchist political commitment. Initially imprisoned in the closed centre of Bruges, he was transferred on 16 August to the 127bis closed centre in order to isolate him from the revolt movement that took place last week, of which he is accused of being one of the “leaders”.

Political violence can be understood, from an anti-authoritarian perspective, as an aggressive response that seeks to break, attack, or fracture each of the components that make up domination.

Original title: "Chile: May actions thin the veil that separates life from death. Words from La Zarzamora in the context of Black August"
August has a black memory. One that is indispensable for those who stand their ground and decide to act against domination. In memory, something from the past merges with the present, even more so when memory ceases to be words and manifests itself accurately in insurrectionary action or in a concrete gesture of solidarity. Thus, black memory manages to transcend the censorship of power and advances without temporal or generational boundaries.
