Our Temple Shall Be Rebellion

From The Dugout

In this episode, we sit down with Anastasia bat Lilith to explore the intersections of Jewish anarchism, spirituality, and organizing. From the roots and lineages that shaped her text Teshuva to the ways Jewish ritual, decolonial thought, and anarchist praxis inform her daily life, Anastasia offers a deep and vulnerable conversation on building liberatory community.

Hanukkah 5784: Flames of Resistance

From Outside the Circle by Cindy Milstein

We must rage, rage against the genocide.
We must rage, rage against white Christo-fascist supremacy.
We must rage, rage against all states, all nationalisms, all of their prisons, militaries, cops, courts, and borders.
We must rage, rage against Islamophobia and antisemitism.
We must rage, rage for solidarity, mutual aid, and fierce love among us.

Israel-Palestine is Just the Tip

A lot of leftists and anarchists have accepted a narrative about Israel-Palestine that is pretty warped. The basic problem isn’t limited to anglophone ignorance about Jews and/or Palestinians; it’s a problem that leftists and anarchists seem to have in comprehending multinational conflicts in general. The comfortable lense through which leftists/anarchists see the world don’t help them see the power dynamics of these sorts of situations clearly. That lense sees the world as divided between oppressors and oppressed, rulers and ruled, indigenous and settler, and other dichotomies that provide a sharp picture of the most intense regions of conflict at the expense of blurring the larger and more significant forces that make those conflicts possible.

A Message From Your Jewish Comrade

From Cyber Dandy

I’ve watched this grow for my entire life (I’m 37 y/o) and for as much as I’ve seen antifa and anarchists generally beat back neo-Nazis and other White Supremacist organizers, the truth is that by the time someone joins an antisemitic group they have already gone through a long path of ignorance. The bulk of antisemitism is learned before anyone commits to a full-blown antisemitic ideology and it is learned in much more every-day places. And what makes it possible to learn antisemitism is the ignorance about Jews to begin with.
