Colin Ward Festival of Anarchic Ideas, Tactics & Action, Oct. 18

From Kairos

To explore the work of author and social theorist Colin Ward, we're holding a day-long festival of anarchic thinking, strategising and making. Through short talks, discussions and workshops, we’ll consider how his pragmatic anarchism could help us create alternative spaces in the city, and build infrastructures of mutual aid, autonomy and resistance.

Confessions of a Communard: The rocky road to collective change

From Doncopolitan

Some of the obstacles which have kept me from writing more regularly have been personal issues around mental health, then there is the sheer amount of work involved with building an ambitious anarchist project in the belly of the beast, but in the main my absence has been due to to the commune-wide process of transitioning from years of individualistic, neoliberal conditioning to a more collectivist mindset and lifestyle.

The Apostles & Militant Anarcho-Punk: An Interview with Chris Low

From DIY Conspiracy

Around 1980 to 1983/84, there really were no others who espoused insurrectionary, direct-action anarchism other than us... the Assassins of Hope, The Sinyx, Ian Bone’s Living Legends, and Ian ‘Slaughter’ Rawes with his fanzine Pigs for Slaughter. And, of course, Conflict when they became more vocal and pro–direct action slightly later. You could certainly never have imagined anarcho-punks being involved with something like antifa back then. Also, we were involved with the Anarchist Youth Federation (AYF), which was an attempt to unite all the non-pacifist bands, fanzines, and activists affiliated with the anarcho-punk scene.
