Anarchism, White Supremacy, and Anti-Racist Action

In recent years, white supremacy and racism have been discussed increasingly within anarchist movements. The questions at stake are manifold: Why are western anarchist scenes predominantly white? Why is it difficult for anarchism to make inroads in non-western communities? Are there similarities between anarchism and indigenism? What are the experiences of groups like Bring the Ruckus or Anarchist People of Color (APOC) in the US? What are the experiences of Antifa groups in Europe? How can anarchists engage in effective anti-racist resistance? What is a “white ally”?
Gabriel Kuhn, an Austrian-born and Sweden-based writer and translator who has been active in anarchist politics in both Europe and North America for twenty years, will address these and similar questions in a short presentation, followed by a group discussion that will hopefully help us meet the challenges they imply.

(The State and the Future of) Radical Publishing

Radical publishing has undergone significant changes due to new communication technologies and transformations within radical culture. Gabriel Kuhn, an Austrian-born and Sweden-based writer and translator, has been involved in various radical publishing projects for twenty years and will discuss some of the key questions radical publishers and authors are facing today: Print or digital? Periodical or book? Academic or popular? DIY or press? Who are we writing for? What is the role of publishing within the movement?
Further questions depend on the interests of the audience whose active participation is strongly encouraged!
