Jacinta speaks openly about her own background in gender studies and how this has informed her approach that seeks to provide an accessible and inclusive way to provide space for inclusivity and representation – as she says; If you don’t see yourself in popular media, how will you know that the way that you think, feel, dress, build family, and love is normal? –Shado Magazine Get the books Read the interview Anarcho-Syndicalist Review: Anarchist Education and the Modern School: A Francisco Ferrer Reader "In his insightful Introduction, Bray is at pains to bring out the complexities, and sometimes inconsistencies, in Ferrer’s political beliefs and actions. His dedication, starting in 1901, to establishing networks of modern schools supposedly delivering non-ideological, peaceful, scientifically based, rationalist education – an ambitious enough goal – was only one side of the man. Simultaneously, Bray notes (5), Ferrer founded and financed an anarchist labor periodi- cal La Huelga General (The General Strike) in which, under the pseudonym ‘Cero’ (probably employed so as not to scare away parents of Escuela Moderna children), he published several articles indicative of distinctly non-pacifist beliefs. One was entitled ‘The Republicans are not revolutionaries – Only the general strike will make the revolution’, and another, ‘Will there be blood? – Yes, a lot’." –ASR: Anarcho-Syndicalist Review Get the book Read the review Truthdig: America's Reproductive Slaves: Birth Strike "The effort to block birth control and abortion is not about religion nor about politicians pandering to a right-wing base, nor is it a result of prudery, nor is it to punish women for having sex,” Jenny Brown writes in her book “Birth Strike: Hidden Fight Over Women’s Work.” “It is about the labor of bearing and rearing children: who will do it and who will pay for it.” –Interview with Chris Hedges in Truthdig Get the book Read more reviews The Final Straw Radio: Free Them All! Matt Meyer on Kuwasi Balagoon “This week we had the chance to interview Matt Meyer, who, among many other pursuits, is a retired professor and an editor of A Soldier's Story: Revolutionary Writings by a New Afrikan Anarchist, Third Edition, out from PM Press. The book highlights the life and writings of Kuwasi Balagoon, a defendant in the Panther 21 case in the late 1960s in which 21 people were arrested and accused of planned coordinated bombing and long-range rifle attacks on two police stations and an education office in New York City. He was ultimately acquitted of this, but was caught up on charges related to a robbery some time later and passed in prison in 1986.” –The Final Straw Radio Get the book Listen to the interview No Depression: Mat Callahan and Yvonne Moore Celebrate Women of the American Labor Movement "Mat Callahan and Yvonne Moore present 20 such numbers on Working-Class Heroes: A History of Struggle in Song, a collection of early 20th century labor songs with an intentional focus on working-class women. Overall, these are fiery performances, with Callahan and Moore singing with conviction about martyred labor leaders and crushing poverty. It’s musically simple and straightforward, as these songs are meant to be sung en masse. Appropriately, an accompanying songbook is due in September." –No Depression: The Journal of Roots Music Get the CD Read the review PopMatters: We Must Pay Attention to the Powerful Political Force of Conspiracy Theories "Lagalisse acknowledges that her book is mostly a cursory historical survey, coupled with some provocative argumentative essays, but it's a rewarding, thought-provoking and densely intellectual one. There's a tremendous amount packed into these few short pages, which offer superb and valuable reading for the academic theorist and the on-the-ground activist alike. The takeaway message for both is this: the next time your neighbour or taxi driver starts spinning what you think is an incredulous conspiracy theory, don't just glaze over or change the subject. Instead, try and listen to what they're saying, and maybe engage with them." –PopMatters Get the book Read the review Jacobin: There’s Still Power in a Strike "If workers refuse to work, the bosses can't produce anything. If soldiers refuse to fight, the generals can't wage wars. That's the power of a strike." –Interview with Jeremy Brecher in Jacobin Get the books Read the interview Oprah Magazine: 15 Books to Read About the Abortion Debate "Shout Your Abortion gets its cues from the viral hashtag and campaign started on Twitter in September 2015. The 2018 book includes more than 250 pages of personal testimonies from women who have had an abortion, as well as administrators and medical professionals who have performed the procedure." –Oprah Magazine Get the book Read more reviews Media For Us: Geographer Richard Walker Discusses the Dark Side of San Francisco's Prosperous Tech Boom "There are a lot of similarities in what is taking place in all the big cities of the world, because the biggest metropoles are monopolizing the most important functions of capitalism, monopolizing capital itself, and experiencing phenomenal rates of transformation — gentrification, inequality, housing through the roof, and so on. But the Bay Area is number one in all those regards because it is the world’s center of the tech industry, the most important industry in the world today in terms of numbers of people employed in tech and in terms of the way it has revolutionized modern life." –Richrd A.
