Slingshot Issue #144

From Slingshot

You can’t make a paper like this if you succumb to gloom and panic or obsess about fascism and environmental collapse all the time. We’re not looking away from the repression and suffering. We’re focused on what we’re going to do and how we’re going to live, not what the system wants to do to us. We couldn’t care less about what we’re supposed to be doing. The mainstream media usually paints radicals and anarchists as angry, and there are ample reasons to be pissed — but most of us tend towards being sensitive, cuddly, reflective and kind.

Diamond Dave Whitaker, Rest in Power Brother!

From libcom.org
March 7, 2026

The first time I ever saw "Diamond" Dave Whitaker, he was wearing this ratty-assed army style olive jacket with a huge round patch on the back with a peace sign, with a rainbow hued tie-dye background, at the top announcing "Four Generations of Hipstory,” with four words around the outside: BEAT, HIPPIE, PUNK, SKINS. He took a lot of shit for that last one, so he always qualified it by saying he aligned with SHARP = Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice.

From Dark Nights
November 27, 2024

Daniel Andreas San Diego has been wanted by the FBI in connection with two bombings which took place in San Francisco in 2003 claimed by Revolutionary Cells – Animal Liberation Brigade, simliar to the Animal Rights Militia in the UK, that ignores the Animal Liberation Front’s policy of taking all necessary precautions to avoid harm to human life. The two bombs were placed at the offices of biotechnology corporation Chiron Inc. in Emeryville, California, in August 2003. The first bomb detonated early in the morning, while the second, which was set to detonate an hour after the initial blast, was found and defused before it went off. Chiron Inc. was targetted for its links to Huntingdon Life Sciences (now Inotiv), the animal torturers and killers who were targetted by the Animal Liberation Front (A.L.F.) and campaigned against by Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC).

By dress wedding

The world and our Bay Area anarchist community lost the feisty and wondrous Dean Tuckerman on May 30, 2024. Born in Philadelphia on March 28, 1952, his mother imparted to him that he should think highly of himself, despite his challenges with cerebral palsy, and not take shit from anyone. Dean moved to New York City in the early 1970’s to join the Yippie! (Youth International Party) at the infamous Bleecker Street household.
