Essay #47: Jim Donaghey, ‘Smash All Systems!’
Manage episode 349496581 series 2899047
In this essay, Jim Donaghey reads the introductory chapter to the newly published book Smash The System! Punk Anarchism as a Culture of Resistance, edited by Jim Donaghey, Will Boisseau and Caroline Kaltefleiter, and published by Active Distribution in December 2022. The volume includes 18 chapters, offering a snapshot of anarchist punk as a culture of resistance across the globe. In these diverse and internationalist contexts we witness struggles against racism and colonialism in South Africa, resistance to neo-liberalism and state oppression in Latin America, resistance to police brutality and capitalism in Western, Central and Southeast Europe, struggles for equality and against patriarchy in the US, and anarchist resistance against injustice and authoritarianism in Asia.
Smash The System! is the first volume in the Anarchism and Punk Book Project series.
A written version of this essay is available on the Anarchist Studies blog.
Our music comes from Them'uns (featuring Yous'uns).
