S4SS/App State “Ask an Anarchist” day report back. Because they are awesome.

ZoÃ« Little

Well, I’d wager to say that Appstate Students for a Stateless Society’s first Ask an Anarchist even was a huge success! We had dozens of people approach us at our table and 28 people (including panelists) at the panel tonight! Video of the panelists and maybe the Q&A will be up as soon as I can edit them. Shout out to our new (and old) friends from Firestorm Cafe and Books and Blue Ridge Liberty Project for making the drive from Asheville and all of our other friends who drove, biked, skipped or walked from more proximate distances as well as our lovely panelists (Elizabeth, Seth and Andy) and moderator (Thomas) who helped make this event such an awesome and fun experience!

The existence of this film is deeply displeasing to me. I invite you to share my pain.

Review: ‘The Unknown Known’ â˜…â˜…â˜…

The crucial Rummyism in the life, lexicon and flamboyantly knotty verbiage of former U.S. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld isn’t the infamous “known knowns/unknown knowns/known unknowns” briar patch.

Things I enjoy: when I post a brief historical note on the role of Mexican street-food vendors in early 20th century labor culture, and jokingly sub-title this brief note “Mexican food as revolutionary praxis.” Then it gets posted to /r/Anarchism and one of the /r/Anarchists, taking this entirely literally, responds with indignation that “food-based activism” is such a silly idea, & who would be dumb enough to suggest you can become “a super awesome activist because I can handle my chilies” . . . .
