This was a nice episode: Live Like The World Is Dying, Cindy Barukh Milstein on Trying Anarchism for Life
"Margaret and Casandra talk with Cindy Milstein about what anarchism actually is, why you should try it, possibly for life, the many horrors of fascism, and once again why community is all too important. They also talk about Milstein’s new book from Strangers in a Tangled Wilderness, “Try Anarchism for Life.”

Living with the virus means: “The basic advice still applies,” he says. “Wash your hands. Get vaccinated. Wear a mask. Avoiding crowds is probably the most important thing. If you have to be involved in group activities, have them either outdoors or in large, well-ventilated spaces. And wear your mask.”

Although this article is about the USA, a lot of this applies to European countries like the Netherlands as well : #LongCovid, #WearAMask , #ventilation , abandonment of at-risk groups, and the crisis in #healthcare .

More than money: the logic of slavery reparations, by Olivette Otelle

"Restorative justice, which recognises the role of marginalised groups, is key to enabling people to lead decent and dignified lives. A post-reparations world might acknowledge the complexity of the colonial past in its entirety, including the damage caused by racial hierarchy; it would not be afraid to discuss the ways in which race and ethnicity, class, gender, religion, ableism and age intersect. A post-reparations society would focus on education and civic participation so that current and future generations can address the challenges of climate change, health inequalities, systemic racism, gender-based violence and poverty; it could encourage us to rethink the notion of happiness, one that is not based on instant and individual gratification but on collective achievement. It would be a society able to build a reconciled collective memory."

One of the things I did was getting the free substack by Jessica Wildfire https://substack.com/profile/2167424-jessica-wildfire

I also follow Sharon Hurley Hall

and Kate Mann

I put them in a separate folder so I don't get overwhelmed by the mails. When I need some food for thought I pick a few and read them.

I'm aware of the problems with Substack, so don't @ me.

Ruth Wilson Gilmore: “Where life is precious, life is precious.”

"So let’s put our heads into prison for a moment and say, “What are they made of?” They’re made of land, they’re made of labor, they’re made of money capital, and they’re made of the state’s capacity to organize land, labor, and money capital that way. That’s what they’re made of. And the labor is both the labor that builds the buildings, the labor that tends the buildings — the disqualified labor that is the prisoners. [...] All that is the prison. Now then we ask ourselves, “Well, how is it possible for all of these resources, what we will call factors of production, to be organized in that way? How is that possible? Why not organize them into housing projects or dams or roads or highways or ports?”
