The life and letters of Captain John Brown: 1859

John Brown
CrimethInc.CrimethInc.

We observe John Brown's birthday. Today—as in 1859—a gang of bigots is using the democratic institutions of the United States to direct a variety of forms of violence and oppression against millions of people. He wouldn't have taken it sitting down. Neither should we. https://t.co/kLblHy3sWh https://t.co/I2Lv9bodDi

Debt: The First 5,000 Years, Updated and Expanded

David Graeber
CrimethInc.CrimethInc.

"Cancel all student loan debt? But that would be unfair to all those people who struggled for years to pay back their student loans!" This argument makes about as much sense as saying it would be "unfair" to a mugging victim not to mug their neighbors too. -David Graeber https://t.co/yHDsghpFrY

Albert Woodfox

Today, we mourn the passing of Albert Woodfox, Black Panther and prison organizer. The United States government stole decades of his life, keeping him in solitary confinement for over 43 years. We salute his courage and persistence. Abolish the prison-industrial complex. https://t.co/RLlsP00tL0

Islam and Anarchism: Relationships and Resonances

Mohamed Abdou
CrimethInc.CrimethInc.

Like Hoda Katebi, we understand the revolt in Iran as a revolt against state violence and patriarchy, not Islam. In "Islam and Anarchism—Relationships and Resonances," Mohamed Abdou argues for an Anarcha-Islām that rejects both colonialism and the state. https://t.co/Yl9vZOPJDG https://t.co/GYdXMuZGk1
