Welcome to the ANews podcast. This podcast covers anarchist activity, ideas, and conversations from the previous week.
I was discussing the Occupy Movement and Pro-Palestine Encampments with some folks and someone asked why these movements failed to become "mainstream" as opposed to spaces for primarily already radicalized and marginalized populations. Putting aside that I believe this perspective is too simple, as I saw non-radicalized folks in the spaces and why would we make a separation between "marginalized" and "mainstream"? What does "marginalized" mean?, I wanted to examine the base assumption that "more accessibility" is somehow better or makes our movements more effective.

The summers of 2022 and 2023 were marked by two major struggles waged from inside the prison by our anarchist comrade Yannis Michailidis. With his primary demand being his release, which the state vindictively denied despite the years he had already served, G.M. escalated his protest to a hunger strike, reaching a critical health condition on both occasions. On the 30th day of his second hunger strike, he decided to further escalate his protest with a thirst strike, which ultimately resulted in the victory of his struggle and his subsequent release.
