Solidarity with Gaza, Palestinian Anarchists

I have no idea what the fuck to do or how to organize right now, but some of us need to push past these performative liberal rallies. Please, if anyone has info to share on potential targets for action ranging from NVDA to spicier stuff, please share them here. I have found a number of names, companies, and state orgs who partook in a horrendous trade ‘mission’ with ‘Israeli’ military occupation entities in 2018.

Beth S. Gotthelf, 100 Bloomfield Hills Pkwy
Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304 (unconfirmed), is the scum who organized the conference under her firm, Butzel Long, which has offices all over Michigan. Cignys in Saginaw, Challenger Communications in Albion, and RAMI in Grand Haven are some of the criminal corporations who went to network with settler military occupation companies. There’s more names in this article: https://www.butzel.com/news-Butzel-Long-attorney-Beth-Gotthelfs-passion-for-Defense-Industry-trade-missions-with-Israel. And anyone who knows how to dig could probably find more info to help blow these shitfucks and the Macomb County Economic Development pigs up with propaganda and uhhh… just propaganda, yeah.

Middleton Hills Trans Anarchist Collective Forms, Distros Zines, Announces Trans Skillshare

Posted on 2023/10/20 - 2023/10/25 by unsalted

“many blame queers for the decline of this society— we take pride in this. some believe that we intend to shred-to-bits this civilization and its moral fabric—they couldn’t be more accurate. we’re often described as depraved, decadent, and revolting—but oh, they ain’t seen nothing yet.” – be gay do crime

about ten minutes from middleton—a suburb of the vaguely neoliberal madison, wi– there is an even more heterosexual suburb of middleton called middleton hills. and two suburbs deep, surrounded by old white people and their dogs, these small-town queers, tranarchists, butches, femmes, riot grrls, edgy middle-schoolers, gender dreamers, theory nerds, outside agitators, and even a few accomplices have had enough. in middleton hills, there are absolutely no queer spaces, and indeed no spaces at all besides suburban homes, largely unused public parks, and a few hierarchically managed local businesses. instead of building queered networks of care, we read emma goldman in the darkness of our suburban homes, wondering if we’re the only soul in this suburb who’s ever dreamed of anything more than hoa violations and manicured lawns. but for all its isolating, perfect, orderly normalcy, middleton hills didn’t feel actively hostile until the terf propaganda showed up. a bigot had been putting up stickers for the hateful and transphobic women’s liberation radio network outside local businesses outside apartment buildings—and that was when we all decided to fight back.
it started with a distro targeting the terf; one otherwise unremarkable night, moonlight blanketing the endless sidewalks and alleyways of the suburbs, five or six of us anarchist queers covered the wlrn propaganda and put up messages of insurgent transness. spaces that had once looked unused, abandoned, and utterly sterile were, at least in our queer souls, no longer property but canvasses for trans and (actually) feminist art—because what is a suburb until you beautify it together, rendering it less idyllic and more riotously queer? and two weeks later, we distroed trans zines in a public park, blasting Against Me! and reveling in each other’s anarchy. the cis men who crossed the street to avoid us must have been at least a little envious, wishing they too could give themselves to beautiful, anarchic queerness.

after these moments of queer joy admidst the pain of suburban life, as annoying as the terf may be, this is not about the terf. this is not simply negation of a bigot but creation of a tranarchist subculture in middleton hills and the broader middleton/westside area. to that end, the newly formed middleton hills trans anarchist collective (https://linktr.ee/tranarchymiddletonhills) is hosting a trans skillshare at middleton library from 2:30 to 5 pm on saturday, october 28th! any tranarchist or accomplice is welcome to come teach about your skills and learn something new. some ideals: calling legislators about trans rights, how to get into community organizing, trans history 101, mutual aid + peer support, security culture, queer art, how to get involved with mhtac—and, you know, anything else your queer heart desires. feel free to bring resources, zines/stickers, and any trans-related or anarchist-organizing-related skill you’d like to teach others about. and above all, remember that suburbs are only heteronormative if we let them be. and that, even if you live in middleton hills, you’re not alone

Chicago, IL: Military Recruiters’ Office Attacked in Memory of Jennifer Laude

Posted on 2023/10/18 by unsalted

Originally published on https://bbnews.noblogs.org/post/2023/10/14/chicago-il-military-recruiters-office-attacked-in-memory-of-jennifer-laude/

We smashed out windows and knocked over furniture at a military recruiters’ office in a suburb of Chicago last night.

In solidarity with Filipino/a/x anarchists’ calls to commemorate Ganda, we swarmed on a miserable little strip mall where black and brown youth are targeted for induction into the imperial machine. Our intention was to slow down this violent routine, even if just for a couple of hours.

We swung our hammers invoking Jennifer Laude’s life, remembering the deeds of Michele Angiolillo and Leon Czolgosz, and channeling our rage against the transmisogyny and white impunity of neo-colonial occupation (A).​​​​​​​

Beyond the Razor Wire, the Streets

“Gaza just broke out of prison.” – مريم البرغوثي (Mariam Barghouti)

“A massive jailbreak this morning” – Radical Haifa

 

Many people are unaware that the u.s. government holds hundreds of political prisoners & prisoners of war captive for their participation in liberation struggles. Even fewer realize that among them are people caged for supporting Palestinians: the “Holy Land 5” are a group of people who the u.s. imprisoned for running a Palestinian charity after they were targeted by the zionist anti-defamation league & surveilled by the FBI.

 

In addition, many current u.s.-held political prisoners have made their support for the Palestinian cause clear. They include Mumia Abu-Jamal, Oso Blanco, Marius Mason, Malik Muhammad, Victor Puertas, Jessica Reznicek, & others.

 

Rather than get caught up in arguments about legitimate violence (or anything, really) with radlibs & zionists, we propose that opponents of colonial captivity worldwide seize this opportunity to support the antagonists of prison regimes, concentration camps, & police states. We can draw attention to their struggles through militant education, vocal public support, & attacks on the systems & structures that keep them prisoner.

 

If you’d like to share information or coordinate around anti-oppression prisoners held by nation-states other than the u.s., consider reaching out:

Mock Grand Rapids Police Department badge where the logo is a cop pepper-spraying a person's face.

These resources may not be new, but are still relevant and worth distributing.
