"Intersectional Class Struggle argues that social class is defined by the difference and variety of us, regular working people, in our everyday lives. In the last analysis, class is made of ourselves.”

If the "protest marshals"/"safety captains"/peace police are more concerned with disciplining protesters than defending against riot police, whose side are they really on?

Zohran Mamdani never actually said "globalize the intifada."

But we did. May revolt against imperialism, Zionism, and capitalism spread around the world.

The American flag is *the* symbol of oppression to a huge swathe of the world.

"It may be the anarchists setting in!"

Anarchists are those against the violence of deportation and incarceration, no matter the party in power.

May we all be anarchists.

May the resistance spread, may the people win. Reject counter-insurgent attempts to demobilize and constrain the revolt. Wherever you are, strike while the iron is hot.

“The happiness offered to us by Empire is not the same as joy, even though they are conventionally understood as synonyms… Under Empire, happiness is seen as a duty and unhappiness as a disorder.”

Why celebrate May Day?

This year, in taking the streets, we are showing each other who is prepared to fight:

"Take a stand—we'll be there, too."

Every year, we are showing that we are part of a story greater than ourselves, stretching back centuries.

Life reinventing itself in defiance of death.
The May Days: Stories of Courage and Resistance
A century and a half of rebellions, uprisings, daring escapes, and adventures celebrating May Day and our collective capacity for freedom and self-determination.

This is the most urgent and necessary read and will always be my top recommendation. You can read for free it on the anarchist library website but having a small copy in your hands does wonders for the heart.
Copies of Joyful Militancy are ready to ship from IAS HQ! This corrective to the toxicity of rigid radicalism is more essential than ever amidst rising political repression. Available at anarchiststudies.org
