Festivals of Resistance: A Call for Gatherings the Weekend Before Trump Takes Office

Posted on 2024/12/06 by unsalted

Along with others around the country, we invite you to join us in organizing festivals of resistance on the weekend of January 18, immediately before Donald Trump takes office. This is a crucial opportunity to engage in outreach, education, and action ahead of what it is sure to be a tumultuous time.

Once Trump takes power, it will only become more challenging to make connections with our neighbors, create the networks that we will need to face down his assaults, and share the skills we will need to survive his reign. Right now, we have a precious window of time in which to prepare. Let’s make the most of it. Continue reading “Festivals of Resistance: A Call for Gatherings the Weekend Before Trump Takes Office” →

🍂Join us for a fall Chicago Anarchist CareShare, the weekend before the election on November 1-3!🍂

After over a year full of actions, disruptions and more, we are focusing on skillshares and group-faciliated sessions on care, in AND out of the streets.

What does it look like to care for ourselves and our people when we are not in the streets? What is care in times where people are reckoning with immense repression and dehumanization that comes with trying to confront the empire and all its entities?

While we don’t claim to have all the answers, we invite folks to engage in these questions with us.

Some skillshare workshops to look forward to are: care under stress, diaster relief and mutual aid work, long-term prisoner support, somatic exercises, operational and digital security culture, fighting toxic prisons, storytelling by the beehive collective, community and self defense, conflict resolution, storytelling around the bonfire and so much more!

New Announcements-Only Signal thread in Chicago: Pesky Parakeets

Posted on 2024/08/21 - 2024/09/01 by unsalted

A flyer reading "follow pesky parakeets on signal messenger" with the username "parakeet.24", a QR code, and the description "for crowd-sourced announcements, on the ground updates, and information for the DNC and beyond." It features a nest of parakeets on a telephone pole.

For the DNC and beyond! Based on the Sunbird model used in Austin, Texas. We plan to post events, calls to action and support, and on the ground updates.
