Words of the Anarchist Comrade Mónica Caballero

From Abolition Media

I once heard that intimate life should not be mixed with politics, that is, that within the ideal, what we do individually and/or collectively to destroy the hegemony of power would have to be separated from our relationships with the beings we love, such as our parents, lovers, children, etc. As the years go by, these types of statements seem to me more and more distant from my reality and from the way I understand and intend to conduct politics.

Via Act for freedom now!

"Finally, I can tell everyone here that I am awaiting the verdict of this court quite calmly, because I know that the ideas of emancipation to which I have devoted a good part of my life transcend myself. Lastly, to those present and to all my comrades here as well as those who hear or read my words later, I can say that till my very last breath, I will always yell: death to the State and long live anarchy!" -Mónica Caballero
