I came across a very interesting article, presenting a revolutionary (albeit not anarchist) perspective and pointing out the similarities of the situation of the Kurds and Palestinians. It primarily amplifies the voices of the peoples decolonising themselves. Recommended.

#Clitoris Galore
Les #Infemmes ont publié le #fanzine de #contre-culture #sensuelle "L’antisèche du #clito" en décembre 2015. Il s’agit d’une petite brochure à découper et plier soi-même, avec des informations pratiques, historiques et scientifiques sur le clitoris.

Korzystając z ostatnich chwil spokoju, przed kolejną falą histerii (po)wyborczej, informujemy, że warsztacik Artelu jest już gotów do budowy prototypów łódek mieszkalnych i innych na potrzeby aktywizmu wodnego. Richtung: #WasserBurg.

Kto chętny, zapraszamy.

The central problem of radical movement is that people are imperfect. A radical political activist can have a dark past as a fraudster or abuser or just plain madman.

Idealistic approach makes people blind to the fact, that nobody is born a moral and fully aware anarchist -- we mostly have a history of our own struggle before we joined the movement. And this history sometimes is not pretty. At all.

Thus, any community should design and implement mechanisms to deal with this problem. It is a danger on moral and tactical level, whether we talk about a prominent founder of US countrywide network or a purser of local affinity group. Interesting, what would be your suggestions, folks. How to approach the problem?

Yes, we can go the way that we just sift out the bad seeds.

Or the way that the higher cause means automatic redemption.

But perhaps we can design a way of interactions within a radical collective that helps people to deal with their past in a morally acceptable way _and_ to strengthen the collective at the same time?
