Last summer was full of adventures: cooking in outdoor kitchens, building tripods, planning actions, sleeping in treehouses in the middle of NYC. I traveled up the east coast, coming to a new city every week. In the process, I fell for my traveling partner’s partner. As a local organizer who had participated in several collective projects that involved facilitated meetings and complex protocol, I’d thought I already knew all there was to know about process; but now, deeply immersed in the beginning of my first polyamory love triangle, I discovered it could extend to a whole new level. There were long conversations to work out simple questions like who would sleep with whom each night, and ongoing efforts to keep each other aware of all our feelings about every issue. It was often an arduous process, but consequently, I developed a very open and expressive relationship with my new partner, and that felt healthy and good.

You are a woman in a capitalist society. You get pissed off: about the job, about the bills, about your husband (or ex), about the kids' school, the housework, being pretty, not being pretty, being looked at, not being looked at (and either way, not listened to), etc. If you think about all these things and how they fit together and what has to be changed, and then you look around for some words to hold all these thoughts together in abbreviated form, you almost have to come up with 'socialist feminism.' 1

The Fourth Anarchist Bookfair in Zagreb will take place on April 11th to April 13th, 2008.
Anarchist Bookfair in Zagreb (ASK - Anarhistički sajam knjiga) aims to become a long-term, developing project. First three (2005, 2006 and 2007) bookfairs went well, and we hope to bring in more and more people every year as participants, publishers, groups, projects - whoever is interested in what the bookfair has to offer.
ASK will take place in Zagreb every spring, as a local resource for anarchist and libertarian books and other publications. We also aim to open discussion on subjects that are important for the anarchist movement, or for our local community.

To help us organize the Bookfair and finish the program on time, we need you to confirm your participation soon as possible. Our e-mail address is: ask-zagreb [at] net [dot] hr.

Recently it is full of feminism or feminists all around us. There is not only one feminism, but many often antagonistic theoretical ideas are concerned.
One definition says that feminism is a struggle against sexism, oppression based on gender. It is the indoctrinating of social stereotypes – women taking care of the home while men earn money, little boys playing with toy cars, beautiful girls and ambitious, assertive boys…

Music is for us means of expression of our fears and desires, indifference and rage, greyness and richeness of an everyday life – means of a social change. It is not an aim or a purpose itself. It is not a way to gain money, since art and creativity in its purity cannot be punched up at a cash-desk and consumed, neither celebrity. It is means of communication meeting our creativity.

Gay Pride has become little more than a giant opportunity for multi-national corporations to target-market products to gay consumers. Major companies focus en Pride-oriented ad campaigns, from beer and liquor companies like Budweiser, Coors, Miller, Cuervo, Smirnoff, Skyy and Bailey's to clothing companies like Polo, Banana Republic, Reebok, and Macy's, car companies like Saab and BMW, and drug companies like Bristol- Myers Squibb, GlaxoWellcome, and Abbott Laboratories. In San Francisco and many large U.S. cities, Gay Pride is a fenced-off event, where an endless parade of floats, from the vapid to the downright scary, marches by: gay AT&T employees, gay Genentech employees, "gay-friendly" politicians like racist Mayor Giuliani of New York or pro-gentrification Mayor Brown of San Francisco, gay stockbrokers, gay realtors, gay cops...

The radical anarchist mom and baby league was announced in 2003 by this manifesto which circulated widely among anarchist listservs. It served as both a critique of the lack of support for moms in the activist community, as well as a call to arms for radical mamas.
