Great list! I read all these except the comics which are an interesting inclusion. Land back.

thanks for this, definitely will read these.

Black Natives were basically disqualified from actually claiming their Native parent and getting registered back in the day.

I think the Black Seminoles are the only group that didn't. There's a really good book on BA-NA relations.

Gotta find the title. A lot of tribes partook in slavery too.

That Blood Stay Pure & Black Slaves, Indian Masters are good reads.

It is s*** though there's no Ethnic group here that didn't treat BAs like dirt.
I like to think of it as I can bring attention to their struggles and have the conversations about how they partook in our oppression too.

Think its time to read Settlers

Happy May Day 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴

libcom.org/history/1886-haymarket-martyrs-mayday

The history of the world holiday on the 1st May - May Day, or International Workers Day, held in commemoration of four anarchists executed for struggling for an 8-hour day.

Originally a pagan holiday, the roots of the modern May Day bank holiday are in the fight for the eight-hour working day in Chicago in 1886, and the subsequent execution of innocent anarchist workers.

In 1887, four Chicago anarchists were executed; a fifth cheated the hangman by killing himself in prison. Three more were to spend 6 years in prison until pardoned by Governor Altgeld who said the trial that convicted them was characterised by "hysteria, packed juries and a biased judge". The state had, in the words of the prosecution put "Anarchy is on trial" and hoped their deaths would also be the death of the anarchist idea.

The anarchists were trade union organisers and May Day became an international workers day to remember their sacrifice. They were framed on false charges of throwing a bomb at police breaking up a demonstration in Chicago. This was part of a strike demanding an 8 hour day involving 400,000 workers in Chicago that started May 1st 1886 .

Thoughts on this thread

im for anarchism too

im tired of being afraid of cops when smoking outside

and the fact that I cant play ball without paying a fine ;EVEN ALONE is insane

other things too

For the most part I agree with it. Think it's well written and describes the fundamentals of Anarchism before getting into specific economic tendencies within.

The petty tyranny that's happening is disgusting.
