From MetroTimes:
Grace Lee Boggs says she would like the chapter titles of her new book, The Next American Revolution: Sustainable Activism for the Twenty-First Century, written with Scott Kurashige, to become buzzwords for progressive activists.
So I imagine “Detroit, Place and Space to Begin Anew” or “We Are the Leaders We’ve Been Looking For” on T-shirts, [...]

From Against the Grain:
Much of the radical left subscribes to some version of “Dump the bosses, put the workers in charge.” Brian Edwards-Tiekert tours a bakery in Oakland that went out of business — until its workers brought it back. Melissa Hoover describes how worker-run businesses adapt to a bad economy. And Gayle McLaughlin discusses [...]

Davidson is a man of great wisdom and true grit, who’s gift to humanity is his ideology of living life as a sovereign being. His writings are informative from a historical context, witty, and [...]

Kevin Carson of Center for a Stateless Society (C4SS) drives another one home, by pointing out the futility of using the system to change the system, when it’s so much more effective to just… just disobey it.

Found a great post on lewrockwell by SEKIII about his view on the fallacy of copyrights. These ideas can be expanded to the current digital media debate with the RIAA. A novel take on copyright licenses that allows free use of someones work in the public domain, is called copyleft. This basically gives each person [...]

A good article by Ross Kenyon from the Center for a Stateless Society, illustrating the pervasive stereotypes that are perpetuated against anarchists.
How would the NAACP respond if a politician or other public figure had said this about all black people?
Recently, US Representative John Boehner (R-OH) odiously mischaracterizedanarchist philosophy and painted an inaccurate portrait of its core [...]

In 2001, three years before his death, SEK III provided the website Libertarian Peacenik, with a brief history of the new libertarian philosophy that emerged after the movement split in 1969.
In July 1969, the Students for a Democratic Society split in Chicago four ways and the Anarchists were purged. Over Labor Day Young Americans for Freedom split. [...]
