Anarchist Muppets
Arguably not since Michael Caine signed up to A Muppet’s Christmas Carol have the films captured the bright and brilliant anarchy of the very best Muppetry and now with Jason Segel and Nicholas Stoller’s new film our hopes are high once more. Read the rest here.
Anarchy in the Middle East
This piece in The Augusta Chronicle is just priceless. People are loose on the streets. Anarchy reigns. One peaceful nation remains, and now the United States is ready to throw Israel under the bus …. No other ally like Israel exists in the Middle East, which shares Judeo-Christian principles and protects freedom of religion to [...]
Laurie Quotes Emma
Anarchist philosopher and revolutionary feminist Emma Goldman is rumoured to have written that she didn’t want to be part of any revolution if she couldn’t dance. Well, we all know who can dance! That’s right, Beyonce! In her latest video, ‘Run the World (Girls)’, multi-millionaire popstar Beyonce Knowles brings the spirit of Tahrir Square to [...]
James Cauty Art Exhibit
Featuring tiny sculptures in jam jars, A Riot in a Jam Jar depicts either real or imagined violent clashes, past or future, between protestors, innocent bystanders and the UK’s law enforcement authorities. It gets underway Wednesday, 1 June, at The L-13 Light Industrial Workshop in Clerkenwell, London. The works are by the anarchist artist and musician, [...]
Profile of Tom Morello
Like more than a few of his colleagues in the music business, one can never accuse Rage Against the Machine guitarist, Tom Morello, of being an activist poseur. This guy’s the real deal, and he’s been proudly swimming up stream and standing up for his convictions from the very beginning, no small feat for a [...]
More on Scott Crow
Lots of people picked up the NYT article about the anarchist under FBI surveillance, including this piece at FDL. So what is all this? More people have been arrested for free-speech activities under Obama then Bush. Is this normal push-and-pull between peace activists or vegan quiltmaking anarchists and the cops? Or, is it a glaring [...]

Ihar Alinevich used snowballs to write ‘Viva Anarchy’ on the wall during a walk. Three men in masks demanded him to take off his sweater and clean the wall. Alinevich said he would erase the scribbling but not with his sweater. After that masked men began to beat the prisoner with hands and truncheons. Moreover, [...]
Profile of Mo Karnage
Naturally, due to her huge personality and frequent press, my thoughts went immediately to Mo Karnage, co-founder of The Wingnut Anarchist Collective (2009) and Richmond’s very own Food Not Bombs celebrity. Read the rest here.
FBI Surveillance of Anarchists
Decent piece in the NYT about the FBI going after activists, especially anarchists. Mr. Crow, 44, a self-described anarchist and veteran organizer of anticorporate demonstrations, is among dozens of political activists across the country known to have come under scrutiny from the F.B.I.’s increased counterterrorism operations since the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Read the [...]
Band Brings Anarchy
It is funny that Beck thinks My Chemical Romance is going to bring anarchy. But can someone tell this high schooler that anarchy isn’t about burning things down? That’s what Glenn Beck would have you believe of a popular recent song by My Chemical Romance. Sorry to disappoint you, Mr. Beck, but “Sing” hasn’t inspired [...]
