From Montreal Anarchist Bookfair
A lot has changed in the 27 years since the Montreal Anarchist Bookfair began. As the scale and scope of our collective struggle has shifted, so too have our global practices of resistance, care, and collective survival.
From Abolition Media
Seven people arrested on June 16 in a crackdown targeting anarchist groups have been released by a judge.

From Hermes Trismegistus
This is a critical reading to “How nonviolence protects the State” by Peter Gelderloos. To go through Gelderloos’ takes i will expand on what i find are argumentative failures on his part. Even so, i will try and give in to his points anyway, accepting his analysis and requirements as correct, and see if nonviolence can be saved regardless. My take is that yes: nonviolence can survive Gelderloos’ critique, by means of accepting or rejecting his opinions the same.
From North Shore
Capitalism is always restructuring itself. We all know this, and it is why analyzing and creating proposals for struggle is an ongoing process, never something that can be fully concluded. So in a sense, change is the only constant: a comforting story for a world that is often disorienting. And yet, capitalism, as simultaneously an economic and technological system, goes through phases that might last more or less long and that create a sense of stability within them: the more things change, the more they stay the same (again, as we are told).
From Libertarian Labyrinth
After the month-long interruption in April, I’m finally settling down to work on the chronological review of Proudhon’s work that I have mentioned recently — which is also the process that will produce some print-on-demand volumes for A New Proudhon Library. I’ve been working without my usual daily quotas and deadlines, for the first time in over three years, and spending a lot of time thinking — no doubt sometimes over-thinking — about the translation strategies I began to develop a decade ago, while puttering away at Proudhon’s journalism and correspondence.

From Organise! by Don Diego de la Vega, Liza militant
About beefs, ego-trips and cancellations in the libertarian movement
Since I recognised myself an anarchist, I have always been an “idealist” for taking it to the Messianic, a “believer” of The Idea. I was fascinated (and continue to be fascinated) by all the stories and experiences that Anarchism has brought, fought for and defended in the name of a conviction that a more dignified Humanity is possible. I always liked texts with a speech that appealed to “preach the spark of consciousness that transforms the instinct of mutual help into the architecture of a society without masters, where bread and freedom are universal and inalienable rights” or which spoke of the “end of the exploitation of Man over Man” and the “emancipation of the people by their own people”. I believe that, from this interpretation, my logical development was that ego and personalism cannot take place in a universal project.

WE CALL FOR ANARCHIST PARTICIPATION IN:
The Antimilitarist Assembly Wedding is an anarchist assembly, meaning anti-authoritarian, anti-nationalist, and horizontal: it’s open to anyone who wants to take action against war and the military-industrial complex behind it.
