Brazil: New location for Biblioteca Terra Livre!

Dear companions,

On the first of May we moved into the new location of the Biblioteca Terra Livre.

We left a 14 square meter room that housed us for 12 years and moved our hopes to a new location, twice the size and located in the center of São Paulo. We inaugurate a new phase and with it new responsibilities will arise.

Now we will be able to concentrate our work as a documentation center, studies, propaganda, book publishing and education in the same space. There is still a lot of work to organize the space, but we will do it with a lot of will and conviction.

London: Touchpaper Anarchist Library Now Open!

An anarchist library in South London…

Despite all appearances, London is not a seamless flow of merchandise, machines, and docile obedients.

It is a site of social conflict, waged by exploiters, managers – the benificiaries of a tightly monitored and supervised prison society – and the minority of the excluded – those among the raw material and the waste of the metropolis who refuse to resign themselves to that grim excuse for a life.
