Rafts in Troubled Waters: Anarchism, Anti-Immigrant Protest, and the Rise of Reform UK

From The Slow Burning Fuse and written by Wyatt E. Jones

Every system in decline leaves wreckage in its wake. When the state fails to provide for basic needs, such as housing, health care, security, dignity then people improvise. They lash together whatever scraps remain of political traditions, cultural myths, and collective memory, hoping to build something that floats. These makeshift vessels are what we might call rafts of resistance. They are provisional, fragile, and often contradictory. Some rafts are built for survival; others for conquest. Some set out toward freedom, others drift back toward authoritarian shores.

New Year's Eve in a German squat. Willkommen!

From No Future
December 27, 2024

From anarcho- and antifa emigrant initiatives.

Have you figured out what you're going to do for New Year's Eve? We've decided to organize a small (but fucked up) party and invite anarcho- and leftist initiatives, pankota, journalists, human rights activists and activists who had to emigrate to Germany to continue their activities and not sit down on a bottle somewhere in a snowy high-security colony.

New far-right attack on refugees calls for resistance

From No Border Camp

No Border Camp 2024, August 21-25, Netherlands

The Main Line Agreement 2024-2028 that the intended government parties PVV, VVD, NSC and BBB presented in May reads primarily as an incoherent, thrown together collection of points with an extreme right-wing signature... The no border struggle is strongly linked to the anarchist movement and will have to be a spearhead of resistance against this extreme right-wing government in the coming years.

The “Good War” of Italian Immigrant Anarchists in the US 1914-1920

From Act for freedom now!
(new publication)

In the United States between 1914 and 1920, the greatest armed revolutionary offensive of the 20th century was unleashed against the governmental, judicial, industrial and financial institutions of the most important capitalist country on the planet. These direct actions weren’t the work of the militant factions of a political party or of a more or less radical mass movement, but of a handful of anarchists who had emigrated from Italy at the turn of the century. It was from this context that Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti came, sadly famous their execution on the electric chair in 1927.

Death is a master from Germany

From de.indymedia.org
August 25, 2023

Around two years ago hundreds of us were trying to block a deportation flight in BER-Airport. It ended up with us watching as families were entering the plane and being forced back to Afghanistan. We were enough people to stop the flight, but we lacked the creativity, the anger and determination. How could we stand still in face of such racist cruelty?

Mapping Immigrant Anarchists

From Anarchistories by Tom Goyens

In the absence of traditional political outlets, anarchists conceived of their newspapers as both a public mouthpiece and an internal social medium. The first few pages of a typical movement paper were devoted to articles, opinion pieces, and news. The last page or two, often overlooked, was a jumble of eye-straining announcements and advertisements. But these announcements are a gold mine for the cartographically-inclined historian...

Anarchist place (Steki) of self-organized collectives of anarchist immigrants

From Act for Freedom! (Athens, Greece)

Today 17 July 19, we the self-organized collective of anarchist immigrants together with other self-organized collectives and individuals in solidarity occupied an abandoned shop at the corner of Tsamadou/Tositsa streets, Exarchia.

Anarchy Bang: Introducing Episode 28 - Terrorism

From Anarchy Bang

This week we will be discussing terrorism. Terrorism is the threat or use of violence in the pursuit of political goals. Obviously states use terrorism all the time to control and put fear in their constituent populations. The border situation terrifies both the people crossing the border and anyone living within range of ICE policing, border "asylum" camps, or the militarized border itself. This week we'll be discussing anarchist views of terror, Adam Curtis' Power of Nightmares that links 19th century and 20th century views on terror. We'll discuss how the 21st century continues in this vein and how anarchists should confound politics of terror but end up being a kind of booster for statist terror itself.
