The State In Action. Austro-Athenian Empire (2010-05-04):

Forty years ago today, Ohio National Guardsmen murdered four unarmed students at Kent State and wounded nine others, permanently paralysing one. (CHT Making Light for the reminder.) The students' crime? Protesting the invasion of Cambodia (or, in some cases, walking nearby while others were protesting it). "That is government; that…

Funny Man. Austro-Athenian Empire (2010-05-02):

Among our President Incarnate's various witticisms at tonight's White House Correspondents' dinner was this gem: The Jonas Brothers are here; they're out there somewhere. Sasha and Malia are huge fans; but boys, don't get any ideas. Two words for you: predator drones. You will never see it coming. You think…

In which our Peace President Warrior-in-Chief makes a little funny.

Happy Sunday, y’all. And I hope you had a happy May Day. I was away from writing opportunities all day yesterday, but in belated honor of International Workers’ Day, I’m pleased to announce that Fair Use Repository is now home to Black Friday of 1887, a commemoration of the Haymarket martyrs which was published in November, 1914 in Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman’s Mother Earth.

There will be a time when our silence will be more powerful than the voices you strangle today!

–Last words of August Spies (1887-11-11), immigrant, anarchist, and Haymarket martyr

I’m announcing it here partly to take notice of the article itself; but also because this article is the first of several heretofore unwebbed articles from Mother Earth which will be appearing over the next several days. (I hope to have the entire November 1914 issue of Mother Earth available online by the end of the coming week.)

And what about y’all? What have you been up to this week? Write anything? Leave a link and a short description for your post in the comments. Or fire away about anything else you might want to talk about.

• The Dialethic Right. Roderick, Austro-Athenian Empire (2010-04-28). Two things conservatives like to say: Our constitutional rights aren't granted to us by government. Our rights come from God, and the Constitution simply recognises them. Illegal immigrants and terrorist suspects don't have constitutional rights because they're not American citizens.

I love how people who would barely pass an 11th-grade civics test like to taunt anarchists with the ever-so-damning, irrefutable line "But how would you prevent a warlord from rising to power, in Anarchy?" and then act as if that is such a complete and well-thought-out argument that it pre-empts… (Linked Thursday 2010-04-29.)
