TOTW: Education Reform

Education, in many ways, has changed since the early 20th century. Many (the liberals I mean) are quite okay with the current system, only believing in minor reforms. These mirror their own concerns about American society at large: more diversity, more democracy (for parents and staff, rarely the children!), sanitation, etc. They ignore the fundamental issues that are at the heart of education that anarchist Voltairine De Cleyre and others saw.

Call to squatters and comrades in solidarity from Crete, Greece, Europe and all the world

From Act for Freedom Now!

Our dreams are not up for auction – our turn has not yet been played.

In the 24 years of life of Evangelismos Squat, on its liberated ground, the flame is resistance and the dangerous hope for a different world is being relayed from generation to generation. Always against authority, in the first line of the clashes of our class and of struggles against war, against police brutality, the pillaging of nature, patriarchy and fascism, the Great House is – and will be – a castle of just counter-violence and a social barricade of the city of Heraklion.

Anarchy, a beautiful idea

From Propaganda of the...

I often find that when I’m trying to have conversations with other anarchists it seems that the more they think of anarchy as politics (by which I mean the practice of organizing society, it doesn’t necessarily have to be within the purview of a government, but certainly an attempt to codify relationships) the more likely they are to dismiss me and my ideas as too radical. I’m told my “solutions” don’t take problems seriously. But I am not in the business of proposing solutions. I’m in the business of trying to figure out how to be and live as though I am already a fully liberated person. For me anarchy is a beautiful idea.

Subcultural Anarchism—a Rebellion that Doesn’t Strike the System

From Black Cloud Speaker translated by a friend of Anarchistnews.

In recent decades, the anarchist movement has been closely tied to counterculture. Many people are drawn to libertarian ideas through their affinity for punk music, and even among those outside the movement, the image of an anarchist is often associated with a mohawk and a leather jacket. Moreover, many bands sing not only about spontaneous protest against society but also directly call for a struggle against the state and capital.

An attack ‘motivated by anarchist and revolutionary ideology’

From The Conversation by Kristy Campion, Associate professor, Terrorism and Security Studies, Charles Sturt University - August 5, 2026

Letter from ex-prisoner Meyer-Falk for Intl Wk of Solidarity with Anarchist Prisoners

From Dark Nights

I’ve spent nearly 27 years of my life in prison. Eleven of those years were spent in solitary confinement. I’ve now been living in freedom again for three years. That’s how I’ve come to realize that prisons aren’t just buildings made of concrete and steel. They are always also an expression of a society that relies on exclusion; it is above all the marginalized members of society who end up in prison.

You Can't Build Anarchy by Building Prisons: Against the Carceral Imagination

Source: Raddle

I'm genuinely disenchanted by how many internet anarchists seem determined to spend their time debating how they would build and administer prisons after their fantasy revolution. This new generation of YouTube-informed "anarchists" is honestly hopeless: people who have somehow managed to take a political tradition founded on opposition to prisons, police, and state coercion and turn it into an endless exercise in designing "better" ways to police and imprison people.
