Articulating goals is one of the essential ingredients for a healthy movement to do. We can’t keep on saying “have a revolution”, “smash the state”, “abolish capitalism” are our goals. Why? Because they aren’t things that movements aim to do but instead are the outcomes of certain ways of living, of acting and interacting with each other.

Street Medics were born from the civil rights movement in 1960’s and 70’s America. Autonomous health and emergency care was seen as ‘self defence’ as demonstrators and activists were being attacked by the police and had no access to emergency or long term health services (an idea that many street medics see as just as relevant today). They were inherently revolutionary and worked alongside and within groups such as the Black Panthers, the Indian Youth Movement and later with Anti Vietnam War groups.

I remember the first time I went to a protest. It was a rally outside Mt Eden prison to free Ahmed Zaoui, an Algerian refugee imprisoned by the New Zealand government for being an alleged “security threat”. I listened to the speeches attentively and admired a banner that said, “No one is illegal: no borders, no nations, no deportations”. As we were preparing to march down the prison road, seven police officers formed a line to prevent us from entering. Ahmed Zaoui’s lawyer, Deborah Manning, asked us not to march onto prison property as it was against the law.

Acorns. Small, round with little hats on. Beloved by squirrels. For most of us here in Aotearoa, that’s where our knowledge of the little suckers ends. But dwell on this. It is estimated that throughout human history, our species has eaten far more acorns than wheat or any other grain.

L38Squat, the social centre Laurentinokkupato, is one of the social centres and squats of Rome and, more exactly, of the south-west outskirts of the city, in a neighbourhood called Laurentino38.

1996 Many of us continue a close collaboration with other activists of the movement and work to diffuse the world wide web throughout the social centres.

The creation of the web site tactical media crew, and independent source of information, inside this project is done actively by some of us.

My name is Tyler, I consider myself a Christian Anarchist. In my opinion, the previous article contains very weak argument in support of its stated position. When first reading it, I was initially impressed by the use of language, the quantity (although not necessarily quality) of biblical referencing, and especially the references to Ellul, (I was impressed that Horus had heard of Ellul let alone read his work) but when reading it something didn’t feel right about it.

Today some people claim that Christianity, rather than being an outdated superstition, can be a part of anarchism. They have started groups of “christian anarchists.” Have they any real claim to serious consideration?

Every day sneaky, under-handed, deceitful, exploitative things happen that should not. Sometimes these things are done in the open and sometimes they are done in the hope that no one will realise how, why or if they really happened at all.

The towers fell. An inside job. There were no hijackers. A recipe for endless war. Surely not! Isn’t that just a conspiracy theory?

Curiously, the facts support the “inside job” theory. Consider:

Two tall buildings were supposedly struck by aircraft, three fell. The buildings were so over-constructed that the effect of such an event should have been like a pin going through a mosquito net, i.e. no effect. The buildings were constructed to resist multiple aircraft.

The task for revolutionary communists is to address the real world, and to point in the direction of workers power. To reveal the hidden class struggles that occur, to educate, agitate and organize for workers to seize control of their own lives, to pose workers power in the face of capitalist and state power.
