Galeropia: call for articles, inks and digital media

This is an open call for articles, inks, digital media or audio files on the topic of insurgency. The work will appear in the first issue of Galeropia, a digital magazine produced by Why War?. Galeropia's vision is a nonviolent theory and practice more potent than the prevailing reliance on polemics and death. Our method will be a targeted expansion of the movement's self-knowledge, aesthetics and practice. Read more >>

protests by a handfull of anarchist leaders, who claim not to have had sufficient support at "their meetings" to organise the protest. They do not call on people to go to the demo of the Labour movement, "that one is run by dinosaurs". Instead they want a picnic (seriously folks only a picnic)in St James park front of her majesty's palace.

Elections today Democracy tomorrow

Democracy soon will be an old hag; tormented by fear and afflicted by nightmares. The elections will continue to exist for namesake. The rulers will be the brokers of democracy selling every remaining rag at the price of people’s fortune. Read more >>
