What fucking world is this? Ask that, during a pandemic or at any other time, and the immediate response is a question: "Well,what& #39;s your alternative?" We are tasked with both surviving the oppressions we are subjected to & coming up with ways to end them https://www.patreon.com/posts/37602073 ">https://www.patreon.com/posts/376...
And so I& #39;m reading and rereading, taking notes and setting fire to my mind. What is my alternative to this fucking world?
I am working on a project about anarchist feminists from around the world who have challenged this fucked up world https://www.patreon.com/posts/40846842 ">https://www.patreon.com/posts/408...

And again and again and again - always ask "Who is the revolution for?" and always find the anarchist feminists telling the cis men to fuck off with their dick swinging contests. #LouiseMichel
A couple of decades after La Commune was crushed, the world& #39;s first explicitly anarchist-feminist group was created as part of the thriving 19th century anarchist movement in #Argentina. https://libcom.org/history/no-god-no-boss-no-husband-world%E2%80%99s-first-anarcha-feminist-group">https://libcom.org/history/n...
It produced the first anarcha-feminist newspaper La Voz de la Mujer which in 1896 in its first issue warned misogynist anarchist comrades:
In 1906 Japan, anarchist feminist Kanno Sugako: "Rise up, women wake up! As in the struggle workers are engaged in against capitalists to break down the class system,our demands for freedom & equality with men will not be won...if we do not raise our voices, if no blood is shed”
And here are Mujeres Libres in Spain, some 60 years after Louise Michel and about 40 years after Argentinian anarchist feminists and their La Voz de la Mujer, and some 30 years after Kanno Sugako https://www.patreon.com/posts/36327571 ">https://www.patreon.com/posts/363...
And here are Kurdish women fighters - against the murderous patriarchy of Daesh/ISIS and of the home https://twitter.com/monaeltahawy/status/1301659423191044096">https://twitter.com/monaeltah...
And I will be exploring more anarchist feminists in my new project https://www.patreon.com/posts/40846842 ">https://www.patreon.com/posts/408...
As Maxine Molyneux points out in her study of Argentinian anarchist feminists, "It is not difficult to see why feminists were attracted to Anarchism and why they were so rightly opposed to male anarchist hypocrisy.”
