You may not realise it, but you are probably already practicing
anarchism in your daily life. From relationships to school, work,
art, even the way you organise your time, anarchism can help you
find fulfilment, empathy and liberation in the everyday. From the
small questions such as 'Why should I steal?' to the big ones like
'how do I love?', Scott Branson shows that anarchism isn't only
something we do when we react to the news, protest or even riot.
With practical examples enriched by history and theory, these tips
will empower you to break free from the consumerist trappings of
our world. Anarchism is not just for white men, but for everyone.
In reading this book, you can detach from patriarchal masculinity,
norms of family, gender, sexuality, racialisation, individual
responsibility and the destruction of our planet, and replace them
with ideas of sustainable living, with ties of mutual aid, and the
horizon of collective liberation.
In Gay Liberation after May '68, first published in France in 1974
and appearing here in English for the first time, Guy Hocquenghem
details the rise of the militant gay liberation movement alongside
the women's movement and other revolutionary organizing. Writing
after the apparent failure and eventual selling out of the
revolutionary dream of May 1968, Hocquenghem situates his theories
of homosexual desire in the realm of revolutionary practice,
arguing that revolutionary movements must be rethought through
ideas of desire and sexuality that undo stable gender and sexual
identities. Throughout, he persists in a radical vision of the
world framed through a queerness that can dismantle the oppressions
of capitalism and empire, the family, institutions, and,
ultimately, civilization. The articles, communiques, and manifestos
that compose the book give an archival glimpse at the issues queer
revolutionaries faced while also speaking to today's radical queers
as they look to transform their world.
