Long backlog of pending texts

Here are some texts I worked on that I'm looking forward to seeing published:

Replacing An Existing Text
Forums
Someone kindly uploaded several articles I wrote, and I'm happy they did.
https://theanarchistlibrary.org/category/author/peaceful-revolutionary
However, I think the article series would be better in one document (as they are in the zine version).
The reader wouldn't need to go to different texts they may not be aware of to read them in order then.
How would I go about remedying this?
Cheers!
Can anyone submit to the library
Forums
I saw a guideline "we are not a self-publishing"... but at the same time works must appear the first time somewhere? Can anyone just write up any reasonably well written piece of anarchist (or anarchist-related) literature and have it hosted here? Does the anarchist library website then do anything to further publicise new works so potential readers might see them? Thanks
Is the IRC down?

History of "Environmental Justice" Movements
Forums
Hii! I am putting together curriculum for youth to teach them about Environmental Justice, and I'm trying to find examples of militant movements that fought for EJ. A lot of them seem to be indigenous struggles like that of the EZLN, but I'm trying to find more examples and preferably shorter summary pieces instead of specific deep dives. I just want to provide a contrast to the whitewashed "non-violent civil disobedience" that students get shoved down their throats in school.

How would the various public agencies be replaced under anarchy?
Forums
Hi. I was wondering how public agencies such as the ones responsible for providing weather forecasts and warnings of natural disasters would be replaced under anarchy. These agencies are huge and involve hundreds of thousands of people and they are (ideally) responsible for saving uncountable lives by providing warnings or relief aid during hazardous weather. I am aware that in marginalized communities, the people are the ones saving each other's lives, but ideally, these agencies should indiscriminately help save lives and avoid disasters.
Inside Front: International Journal of Hardcore Punk and Anarchist Action (1994–2003)
Forums
I created a rough ABBYY conversion of all the available old 'Inside Front' issues. So, they can be word searched and some of the essays republished.
Anarchism sounds great, but...
Forums
okay, so anarchism sounds really cool.
But...how does anarchism deal with hate?
I'm going to use antisemitism as an example, since a) there's a fair bit of data and b) I'm Jewish. Jews are 0.2% of the world population.
