Rublyov Translated by Szarapow Nestor Makhno, the great Ukranian anarchist peasant rebel escaped over the border to Romania in August 1921. He would never return, but the struggle between Makhnovists and Bolsheviks carried on until the mid-1920s. In the cities, too, underground anarchist networks kept alive the idea of stateless socialism and opposition to the party state. New research printed here shows the extent of anarchist opposition to Bolshevik rule in the Ukraine in the 1920s and 1930s. Cover: 1921 Soviet poster saying "the bandits bring with them a ghost of old regime. Everyone struggle with banditry!" While the tsarist policeman is off-topic here (but typical of Bolshevik propaganda in lumping all their enemies together), the "bandit" probably looks similar to many makhnovists.

Apresenta as atividades de Hippolyte Havel, anarquista tcheco, que morou em Nova Iorque, nesse período, e demonstra também o empenho deste e especialmente de seu círculo de artistas e militantes em divulgar, fortalecer e experimentar tais correntes estéticas e libertárias.

  • Yalensky's Fable: a History of the Anarchist Black Cross
    Yalensky’s Fable: A History of the Anarchist Black Cross Matthew Hart 2003 Contents Propaganda by the Deed .................................. 5 Russian Revolution and the Continued Repression .................... 5 World War II ......................................... 6 The Second Wave ...................................... 7 The Present Wave ...................................... 8 Work Cited .......................................... 9 2 For close to a century, anarchists have united under the banner of the Anarchist Black Cross for the sole purpose of supporting those comrades imprisoned for their commitment to revolu- tion and to the ideas of anarchism. Who would have suspected that a few men supplying boots, linen, and clothing to deportees in Bialostock would have been the meager beginnings of an organization that has spread throughout the globe?1 Recently statements have been made, referring to the history of the Anarchist Black Cross as mere folklore. While I admit the history of this organization seems evasive at the surface level, a deeper search for the organization’s history uncovers a rich amount of information that is far from folklore or fairy tales. This article is just a small amount of the history that hasbeen discovered in just a couple of years of research. Hundreds of pages filled with facts regarding the history of the organization is presently being assembled by members of the Los Angeles Branch Group of the Anarchist Black Cross Federation in hopes of one day printing this information in books, pamphlets, etc. We present the informa- tion in hopes of bringing unity and knowledge within the ranks of those who struggle for the support of political prisoners throughout the world. The Anarchist Black Cross dates back to the beginning of the last century during the politically turbulent times of Tsarist Russia.

    U.S. $22.95 Political Science anarchy ! Anarchy! An Anthology of Emma Goldman’s MOTHER EARTH (1906–1918) is the first An A n t hol o g y collection of work drawn from the pages of the foremost anarchist journal published in America—provocative writings by Goldman, Margaret Sanger, Peter Kropotkin, Alexander Berkman, and dozens of other radical thinkers of the early twentieth cen- tury. For this expanded edition, editor Peter Glassgold contributes a new preface that offers historical grounding to many of today’s political movements, from liber- tarianism on the right to Occupy! actions on the left, as well as adding a substantial section, “The Trial and Conviction of Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman,” which includes a transcription of their eloquent and moving self-defense prior to their imprisonment and deportation on trumped-up charges of wartime espionage. of E m m A g ol dm A n’s Mot h er ea rt h “An indispensable book . a judicious, lively, and enlightening work.” —Paul Avrich, author of Anarchist Voices “Peter Glassgold has done a great service to the activist spirit by returning to print Mother Earth’s often stirring, always illuminating essays.” —Alix Kates Shulman, author of Memoirs of an Ex-Prom Queen “It is wonderful to have this collection of pieces from the days when anarchism was an ism— and so heady a brew that the government had to resort to illegal repression to squelch it. What’s more, it is still a heady brew.” —Kirkpatrick Sale, author of The Dwellers in the Land “Glassgold opens with an excellent brief history of the publication.

  • The Triumph and Anguish of the Russian Revolution: Bessie Beatty's
    The Triumph and Anguish of the Russian Revolution: Bessie Beatty’s Forgotten Chronicle Lyubov Ginzburg … only time will be able to attribute both the political and the social revolution their true values. Bessie Beatty, the Bulletin, 25 September 1917 The centennial of the Russian Revolution celebrated two and a half years ago has been marked by a pronounced revival of interest in its origins and impact upon modern history all over the globe. The occasion presented an opportunity to revisit the unprecedented social and political upheaval that convulsed the country in 1917, defined the world order for much of the twentieth century, and continues to reverberate in Russian national and international politics to this day. Along with countless newly revealed primary sources which have gradually found their way into the public domain, this event has been encrusted with novel meanings spawned within a growing number of discourses previously excluded from his- torical scrutiny. An example of such a disparity would be an unfortunate slight to gendered narratives in the understanding and interpretation of one of the most controversial social experiments in human history. In spite of the fact that, as with their male counterparts, foreign female correspondents became chroniclers, witnesses, and, in some instances, participants in the thrilling social drama, there have been few references to their representation of the Revolution(s) in its histori- ography.1 Meanwhile, compelled to understanding Russia, while informing com- 1 Although disproportionally less than their men-authored counterparts, women’s narratives have previously sparked some occasional interest among historians and scholars of journalism and women studies.

  • Brains Brilliancy Bohemia
    Brains Brilliancy Bohemia Art & Politics in Jazz-Age Chicago Jack Jones in Court, 1932. PUBLISHING INFO CONTACT INFO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT This publication and accompanying exhibition would not have been possible without the support of several organizations and individuals, most significantly the Newberry Library, whose extensive collection of Dill Pickle related materials, provided much of this publication’s content. I would also like to thank Lila Weinberg, Tim Samuelson and Mess Hall for their exceptional support and generosity. Introduction f you walk by Tooker Alley, the unmarked alleyway between Dela- ware and Chestnut off Dearborn Street in Chicago, it looks not unlike many other alleyways in the city. Passersby would have little Ireason to stop and take notice of the parking lots, dumpsters and back porches of the adjacent townhouses. And yet 80 years ago, Tooker Al- ley was nationally known as home to Jack Jones’ notorious Dill Pickle Club. This club served simultaneously as a tea room, lecture hall, art gallery, theatre, sandwich shop, printing press, craft store, speakeasy and one-time toy manufacturer — and just about the most curious venue in the known universe. And so goes the dependability our collective memory. The non-remem- brance of the Dill Pickle reminds us of which histories are kept alive and which are lost to the dustbins. Our historical amnesia also recalls the importance of preserving the stories of our social movements for future generations. This booklet documents one such effort: a re-circulation of ephemera from The Dill Pickle Club, one of the most creative, politically engaged and influential American cultural centers of the 20th Century.
