Solidarity with Alfredo Cospito
https://crimethinc.com/AlfredoCospito
Since October 20, 2022, the imprisoned Italian anarchist Alfredo Cospito has been on hunger strike, demanding to be released from solitary confinement under the “41bis” regime. As of today, he has passed 107 days without eating.
Alfredo has lost more than 90 pounds. Bobby Sands, the member of the Irish Republican Army who was elected to Parliament during his hunger strike in 1981, died after 66 days without food. At death’s door, Alfredo has been transferred to a medical facility. His life hangs by a thread.
In this text, we explore what is at stake in Alfredo's hunger strike and offer a translation of an article about the situation by the Italian philosopher Donatella Di Cesare.

https://crimethinc.com/2023/02/03/solidariedade-com-alfredo-cospito-anarquista-italiano-em-greve-de-fome-contra-o-confinamento-solitario

In the words of one self-effacing old-timer who attended the release event for "Smash the System: Punk Anarchism as a Culture of Resistance," who had heard the Sex Pistols when they first came out and saw Crass perform not long after,
"Punk isn't just a style of music—it is also an approach to political action in which you make up for your theoretical deficiencies by means of the speed and urgency of your delivery."

Disaster aid is not reaching northern Syria as a consequence of the hostility of the Assad regime and the neighboring governments. If you want to donate to a project that will reach people in northern Syria, support these efforts:

Punk - Eine gefährliche Utopie
https://crimethinc.com/2022/12/13/punk-eine-gefahrliche-utopie-eine-aktualisierende-ruckschau-auf-die-beziehung-zwischen-punk-und-anarchismus-1
Wie ist Punk aus den Gegenkulturen der 1960er Jahre hervorgegangen, die er angeblich ablehnte? Warum spielt Punk Ende des 20. Jahrhunderts eine so zentrale Rolle beim Wiederaufleben des Anarchismus auf der ganzen Welt? Wie hat Punk die partizipativen Medien des digitalen Zeitalters vorweggenommen? Und was kann uns Punk und sein Erbe heute lehren?
“PUNKROCK IST GLEICH ANARCHIE PLUS GITARREN UND DRUMS. ALLES ANDERE WÜRDE NUR BEDEUTEN SICH ZU UNTERWERFEN.”
