We’re putting together a zine exploring what it means to organize as anarchists, build infrastructure, and sustain movements. This project is a space to reflect, critique, dream, and share lessons from the many ways anarchists come together, formally and informally, to create liberatory possibilities. It’s also a moment for steel to sharpen steel, as Anarchist interested in in the different forms of anti-authoritarian organization available to us we are trying to make effective tactics and strategies accessible

We’re asking for writing, art, poetry, short essays, reflections, and visual work that dig into questions like:

• What does organizing as an anarchist mean to you?

• How do you want to see the movement grow organizationally?

• If you organize informally, how do you see your praxis relating to more structured anarchist formations? What are the strengths and limitations?

• How do you balance autonomy and collective responsibility in your work?

• What infrastructure feels most urgent for anarchists to build today (mutual aid, social centers, defense networks, media, etc.)?

• How do we practice trust, accountability, and care in anarchist spaces?

• What lessons have you learned from successes and failures in anarchist organizing?

• How do art, culture, and storytelling play into our organizing?

• How do we prefigure the world we want to live in through our organizing?

We’re especially interested in reflections on tension, contradiction, and experimentation—because anarchist organizing isn’t one-size-fits-all.
