Against Antisemitism: a review of Jewish Anarchist Voices

My copy of Jewish Anarchist Voices arrived at my door the day after the Golders Green antisemitic attack; an incident that has followed from several others across the UK. It is a short pocket book containing 3 “accounts”, 2 anonymously published pieces and Fredy Perlman’s well known piece Anti-Semitism and the Beirut Pogrom, which I drew from in my first Against Antisemitism essay.

Millenarian Insurrectionary Hail Marianism

Original title: Millenarian Insurrectionary Hail Marianism: Invecchiare Selvatico Reflects On Warlike, Howling, Pure (by Areïon)

The clock is winding down and there seems to be no path to “victory”, no chance of “winning” (concepts only relevant for those stuck playing Their games). But no, wait… Could it be? Religiosity, self-sacrificial martyrdom, and agenda-infused opportunistic historical re-readings (what the author would likely dismiss as historical revisionism)… that’ll get us to freedom, to anarchy! Awe, well, um, ok? Warlike, Howling, Pure feels like an act of desperation, a last-ditch effort at some sort of ending-times anarchist final triumph or last stand, one that hopefully will not pull other lost souls into its hallowed and insurrecto-thiestic void.

Announcing Warlike, Howling, Pure

From Contagion Press

by Areïon

Given the failure and inadequacy of secular attempts to bring about revolution, Warlike, Howling, Pure offers an insurrectionary and devotional approach to anarchy that expands the uprising into spiritual and religious dimensions. This book of four essays delves into the animism of revolution, suggesting its manifestation through relationship with the numinous – a divine intervention, rather than a product of crass historical determinism.
