When state violence and systemic denial of full citizenship by the state makes true belonging impossible for Black people, Black anarchists have envisioned and fought for a free life beyond the state. In this episode of Rattling the Bars, author William C. Anderson explores the rich, radical tradition of Black anarchism and its connection to prison abolitionist movements.
From The Dugout
In this in-depth conversation with Ashanti Alston — former Black Panther, political prisoner, and life long learner — we explore the radical meaning of life, death, and liberation. Ashanti reflects on the personal and collective sacrifices demanded by struggle, the weight of “social death,” and the spiritual grounding found in honoring ancestors.

In this in-depth conversation with revolutionary organizer Ashanti Alston, former member of the Black Panther Party and Black Liberation Army, we trace a life committed to struggle, freedom, and community. From his early experiences during the Civil Rights era and the 1967 Plainfield Rebellion to his radicalization through Black Power and anti-imperialist movements, Ashanti reflects on the lessons, tensions, and commitments that defined a generation of liberation fighters.

Borderless Intimacies: Black Anarchism and Internationalism with Anarcha Semiya & Andrewism
In our era of escalating fascism, we look outward to find our histories of struggle and solidarity. @anarchasemiyah and @blackanarchistradicals will explore Black struggles against hierarchy and the state in historical and contemporary contexts. We will journey through the many Black anarchisms in different parts of our world and how we can reach across time and borders to learn and fight with each other.

Why do I identify as an anarchist—specifically, a Black anarchist? I share my journey from early organizing and labor work to international protest. From the Black Panther Party’s survival programs to my time at Standing Rock, in France during Nuit Debout, and traveling through the Philippines, I’ve seen how mutual aid, decolonization, and direct action can transform our understanding of freedom.

This is a self critique and a critique of communities I’ve been a part of my entire adult life. It was very hard to write especially in a moment where it feels like anarchist activity is low but revolutionaries have to remain honest especially in these perilous times. I speak about Black anarchists cause those are the people I spend most of my time around however many of these critiques could be extended to Non-Black POC and Indigenous anarchist tendencies as well.

One of the most passionate and often unknown anarchist organizers is Martin Sostre. It is very tough to find anything comprehensive out there about him for a variety of reasons I will detail later. When I saw that a biography about Sostre was being released, I was super excited to learn more about him and his life.

From The Dugout, a black anarchist podcast
In this episode of The Dugout, we step into the sunlit shadows of resistance with Andrew Sage—better known as Andrewism—an Afro-Trinidadian solarpunk anarchist whose YouTube channel has become a beacon for hopeful radicals and Black anarchists across the globe. We chop it up about growing up in the Caribbean under colonial hangovers, what solarpunk means beyond aesthetics, and how anti-capitalism rooted in joy, ecology, and community care can help build the futures we deserve.
