Words from anarchist comrades in Indonesia

**FUCK THEM ALL.**

Last night, our friend Pem got snatched by the pigs, and we still don’t know what charges they’ll throw at him. This morning, they’re out there in the media, trying to make a spectacle of mass arrests, calling us “provocateurs” and “outside agitators.” And they’re naming names—**our names.**

Addicted to Losing

From Ill Will by Athena

In the summer of 2020, we saw the largest uprising in America’s history. Its racial character was undeniable: in a landscape of unfrozen civil war, the negro question once again took center stage.

Looking back on these events, part of the reason the uprising died down was that it hit upon both technical and social limits.

Interview w/ anarchist about Belarus protests

from Green Anti-Capitalist Front

Interview with anarchist in Minsk about the Belarus protests

The fight against the capitalist system and the authoritarian nation states driving the destruction of the planet must be an international one if it has any hope of succeeding. That’s why we decided to reach out to anarchists in Belarus to learn about the current wave of protests confronting the regime of Lukashenka. We did it by contacting the Anarchist Black Cross Belarus, but this interview represents the opinion of a single anarchist in Minsk and doesn’t reflects the position of any particular organisation or group.
