Marronage Meets Bolivarian Socialism: Maroon Comix, A Review

"The revival of African and Indigenous inspired political strategies have emerged and continue to emerge in a multitude of ways in Venezuela, from ecosocialism to reparations. The Maroon Comix team is key to this international effort to document, inspire and challenge. Their work offers today’s organizers, farmers, workers, political visionaries, dreamers, and militant generation at large, an invitation to reorient their political and theoretical frameworks from Euro-centric revolutionary models to African and Indigenous historical points of reference. Herein lie the ancestral forms of communalism, socialism and communism -- maroons, their societies, their strategies, their republics and their present-day permanence. Herein lie the answers to some of our deepest and most puzzling political questions and historical contradictions."—Jeanette Charles, Venezuelanalysis.com

"...an important introduction to the subject of intersectionality in the birth movement..." -Motherworldly

“Birth Work as Care Work is an important introduction to the subject of intersectionality in the birth movement, drawing out themes of oppression and inequality through the stories of women.

Alana Apfel and her contributors identify the challenges of a profit-driven healthcare system dominating birth, and a society where “white volunteerism” overlooks the real lived diverse experience of birthing women in communities that are not their own. Apfel creates a space for birth workers to be heard on both a personal and a political level, including four beautiful birth stories. …This is a recommended read for anyone interested in the broad political and social context of birth, and wiling to feel like our work is radical, valuable, and important.” —Karen Hall, Motherworldly

I'm Queer As Hell, And I'm Not Going to Take It Anymore

"You know what sucks? Unequal representation in the media. I know I don't have to tell you all that. We have published piece after piece drawing attention to this issue, and we shouldn't have to. Time and time again I hear the same thing: if you don't like it, fix it. And so, we do.

But fixing what is wrong and unequal is a challenge, an uphill battle. In order to get equal representation, we have to assert ourselves into the conversation and make sure to be heard by those in positions of power. More importantly, we need to be heard by our youth. If you want to change the world, you have to create a different world view and present that view to the children in our lives - which is exactly what Jacinta Bunnell is doing with her coloring books."—Landon Funky, Funky Feminist
