From The Anews Podcast!
Welcome to the anews podcast. This podcast is on anarchist activity, ideas, & conversations from the previous week on anarchistnews.org.
Topic of the Week - Recently on the Anarchy Planet IRC*, an idea was shared by a participant there, of creating a network of spots for friends to stay as they travel in a specific direction. For example, spaces and places where traveling, touring, or whatever anarchists could stay for a period of time, plug in, and then journey onward to the next destination, and so on and so forth, until their own personal anarchist Mordor is reached.

Intro: 9:52 | Article
Acausal heathen poet and author Ramon Elani joins me to discuss his new book 'Wyrd Against the Modern World' published through Night Forest Press. This audio interview is actually a reading of a written interview I conducted with him, originally published at the Gods&Radicals Press supporter-only blog Another World.

reflections on 1986 and now
It’s 35 years since the AF was first formed as the Anarchist Communist Federation in 1986. We’ve published retrospectives on several occasions before in the 10, 20, 25 and 30 year specials of Organise! This time we look back at what was happening in and around 1986 and its relationship to the emergence of the new anarchist organisations.

Our hatred for this rotten world is tearing your borders apart, tearing down your antennas and leaving only smoke, sending our solidarity signals. So, on Sunday, April 25, we set fire to a COSMOTE car (TELEFONE COMUNICATIONS COMPANY), on 25th of March Street in Triandria.

On the night of May 3, 2021, after our comrades have endured more than 42 days on hunger strike: Mónica Caballero, Francisco Solar, Joaquín García, Pablo Bahamondez, Juan Flores, and Marcelo Villarroel.
For fans of Sidney Parker, Immediatism now has eight episodes of his essays. To read these and more, check out "Enemies of Society: An Anthology of Individualist and Egoist Thought," from Ardent Press and Little Black Cart, containing nearly eighty essays and biographical pieces. Highlights are episode 457, which looks at the myth of the People or Workers who will supposedly rise up in revolution, and episode 461, which makes comparisons between Marxism and fascism.
Listed below are the S. E. Parker episodes first, followed by other Enemies of Society.

In the night of Sunday April 18, while out walking in the street under the curfew restrictions, we set fire to a bin and a high-end car, a Volkswagen Polo 1.6. The theatre of this liberation by flames is 4000 Yerbal Street, in the Flores district. We left a few fliers on site saying: “Long live the subversive/insurrectional struggle. Our solidarity is attack. Freedom for the subversive, anarchist and mapuche prisoners. Shit to the decree-law 321 in Chile! Freedom to Marcelo Villaroel .”

A Promising Anti-Capitalist May Day
This May Day, Montreal’s annual anti-capitalist demonstration organized by the CLAC gathered in Jarry Park under the theme “No old normal, no new normal”. It was a sunny late afternoon, and the energy was high amid the banners and black flags as the demo began to snake through the residential streets of Villeray.

from Autonomies
Utopia lies at the horizon. When I draw nearer by two steps, it retreats two steps. If I proceed ten steps forward, it swiftly slips ten steps ahead. No matter how far I go, I can never reach it. What, then, is the purpose of utopia? It is to cause us to advance.
Fernando Birri quoted by Eduardo Galeano
