Posstscript: the insurrectional perspective

More than a year has passed since we finished the second issue of our journal Dissident, which introduced insurrectional anarchism in Sweden.

Immigration Reform Is Needed, After Bush

Stewart Alexander, a presidential hopeful with the Peace and Freedom Party, says, “I believe Congress should work on comprehensive immigration reform after President Bush ends his term in office.
