Montevideo, Uruguay: 9th Anarchist Book Fair

"9th Montevideo Anarchist Book Fair, April 22-24, more info: feria-anarquista-montevideo.info"

from Anarquía, English translation by Anarchist News

This year once more, we invite you to the Anarchist Book Fair in Montevideo-Uruguay. We are very happy to propose a gathering that enables and deepens our incessant struggle against the State, patriarchy, capital, and against all that tries to dominate us. In a world in which capital takes a hold of our time, of Earth, the rest of the animals and our lives. We invite you to discuss and re-discuss, to tension anarchist ideas, practices and projects.

Nor with their Wars! Nor with their Peace!

from Inferno Urbano, English translation via raddle by cretin

Oppressed and rebellious individuals and communities have no interest in the wars of the states that oppress them, nor in 'peace', which in truth means the domination of their economy over the skin of everything and everyone! Freedom does not arise from behind the bloody shadow of a flag or within the deadly enclosure of a state. NOT WITH NATO, NOT WITH TSAR PUTIN, NOT WITH NATO, NOT WITH THE ITALIAN STATE!

We do not enlist

from Inferno Urbano

Wars are always a bloodbath for the exploited and a rich business for the bosses. We are not interested in the opposing propaganda reasons of the belligerents. The exploited in Russia as in the Ukraine, in Italy as in the USA are our brothers & sisters, their blood is our blood. The governments, the generals, the industrialists, the financiers are our enemies, our executioners, our starvers.

Cannibal Metaphysics on Immediatism Podcast

Anarchists have a troubled relationship with anthropology. Many of us are sympathetic to the enduring tribulations of people and worldviews that are indigenous in the onslaught of western culture's hegemony. Eduardo Viveiros de Castro is known for having offered, in the book Cannibal Metaphysics, a vision of anthropology as the "practice of the permanent decolonization of thought." He shows that "Amazonian and other Amerindian groups inhabit a radically different conceptual universe than ours -- in which nature and culture, human and nonhuman, subject and object are conceived in terms that reverse our own. (From the publisher's description)".
