A participant in CrimethInc. projects spoke on the Antifada podcast about the lines of transmission through which the rebellious aspirations of the 1960s influenced the subcultural movements of the 1980s and 1990s and the new revolutionary movements of the early 21st century.

Révolte en Iran
La résurrection féministe et le début de la fin du Régime

https://crimethinc.com/2022/09/28/revolte-en-iran-la-resurrection-feministe-et-le-debut-de-la-fin-du-regime

Le 16 septembre 2022, la police des mœurs de Téhéran a assassiné une femme de 22 ans ; prétendument car elle ne portait pas le hijab comme l’exige la politique de l’État iranien. En réponse, des Iranien.ne.s sont descendu.e.s dans la rue depuis près de deux semaines, affrontant la police et ouvrant des espaces d’une liberté ingouvernable. Pour beaucoup en Iran, il semble qu’un processus révolutionnaire soit en cours.

En collaboration avec le Collectif 98, un groupe anticapitaliste et antiautoritaire couvrant les luttes en Iran, nous avons pu interviewer des féministes iraniennes et kurdes sur la situation. Dans le texte, ils explorent la signification historique de cette vague de révolte et les forces qui l’ont déclenchée.

The far right responded to the 2013 wave of protest in Brazil by seeking to shift the focus of anger from capitalism to "corruption."

Brazil experienced a right-wing reaction that culminated with the impeachment of Dilma and a turn towards more brazen neoliberalism.

Today, some of those who participated in the grassroots uprisings of 2013 have ceased to mobilize in the street. They hope this election will defeat fascism and deliver improvements in their lives.

This closes the cycle that began in 2013, re-legitimizing electoral politics.

If Lula wins, that will resolve nothing. As long as Brazil is subject to the pressures of neoliberal capitalism, he will be hard-pressed to deliver fundamentally better living conditions.

Meanwhile, fascism will continue to spread, both in the streets and in the institutions.

When the next wave of frustration with liberal reforms reaches critical mass and fascism once more presents itself as the solution, only grassroots struggle will be able protect targeted communities and advance social movements.

Solidarity and direct action are indispensable.

The same goes double if Bolsonaro is elected—or seizes power.

Brazil has a history of coups. It is a grave mistake to withdraw from street mobilizations, counting on the electoral process to put a stop to fascism and nationalism. We must be ungovernable.

30 Giugno 1876: Pëtr Kropotkin Fugge di Prigione
Un Racconto d’Audacia

Nato il 9 Dicembre 1842 all’interno di una famiglia aristocratica della Russia Zarista, Pëtr Kropotkin ha sviluppato le sue idee radicali nel corso della sua ricerca scientifica. Nel 1874, poche ore dopo aver presentato alla Geographical Society un rapporto sulle formazioni glaciali molto apprezzato, fu arrestato e accusato di attività sovversiva. Il racconto che segue, proveniente dalle sue memorie e da altri documenti storici, descrive la sua evasione, due anni dopo, da una prigione di San Pietroburgo.
