#BookReview: @TaraBooks recent releases embrace the #folklore of the #Kadar, 'people of the forest'. Nuggets of knowledge derived from unconventional lives led in the quiet of #forests, these books help the readers gain a wider, gentler perspective. ow.ly/RTg130jGNYv

My favorite books to read right now: Biographies/autobiographies from people who lived wild, unconventional lives. Any suggestions?

Here's a cool post about some a rough conversion of some old CrimethInc journals. So, they can be word searched and some of the essays republished: reddit.com/r/AnarchistLib…

Someone updated this text recently to offer this argument for publishing 'Are Prisons Obsolete?' by Angela Davis: "A lot of people find their way to anarchist ideology through prison abolitionist organizing, and this is a foundational anti-state text."

Also, here's a collaborative wiki-style page that was created for people to share arguments about which texts people think should get a second chance at being published, or edited to include disclaimers, etc.: thelul.org/library/some-o…

The Anarchist Library has an official wikipedia™ page now :) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Anarc…

@jucherevolt what text? They put one up on a Bookchin text that had a tonne of zionist propaganda about Arabs, but I think the warning was only up for a year, then taken down. I wasn't aware of any other warnings.

@wrowwrow @EcoTechBro it's an example of a kind of time abolitionist over-optimism, but it's still all interesting reading: thetedkarchive.com/library/dale-f…

@wrowwrow @EcoTechBro I'll link below an essay I'm reading to understand a kind of philosophical critique of the idea that tribes managed to keep hold of a cohesive identity through shared time perception regardless of colonialism, >

Can someone tell me what time abolition looks like in an organized society? And I swear to god, if it ends up just being "we do things when we want to instead of in accordance with the dictates of the ruling class" I am going to yell at you.
