the text isn't explicitly anarchist but is a well articulated conception of white supremacy culture-- something that anarchists fight against. there are many important writings from black authors that don't always use the label "anarchist" but yet still practice anarchistic values. while this specific text may not be right for the library, i hope that the explicit use of the term anarchist isn't always a qualifier considering the long tradition of "anarchistic" practices in indigenous and black liberation tendencies.
regardless, after doing more research on the author, i definitely don't agree with some of the ways she approaches social change and the organizations that have used the essay are pretty liberal. i definitely understand if y'all don't want to publish it.
is there anyway one could privately access the file? i spent a lot of time formatting it so i could eventually download the zine version.
p.s. as for the other comment, i think it's pretty rude to compare a genuine attempt at articulating the complexity of white supremacy culture to Obama-- a sociopathic war criminal, sell out and traitor to working (and nonworking) poor people globally.
hi, thanks for the response…
