Bugs Bunny as Revolutionary: A review of F. Rosemont’s book of essays

From Charlie Allison's Blog

I expected great things when I opened Surrealism, Bugs Bunny and the Blues, PM Press’s collection of the writings of anarchist, artist and surrealist Franklin Rosemont (1943-2009). I didn’t expect to laugh half as much as I did (this is the most fun I’ve had reading a book from PM Press since the marvelous Karl Marx: Private Eye by the redoubtable Jim Feast).

Courage (in Chicago)

From Nudism As An Illegalism

The following text is my reportback from Bash Back! 2023, simultaneously published here and submitted to Bash Back News, where I hope it will be published soon. There are more than a few references that might be obscure to folks who weren't there, who don't know some of the pertinent lore. I hope that that does not diminish the value of the piece to the wider readership.
