free classes, open to anyone—“new” ways of organizing education
thanks for reblogging my free school! i’m having lots of fun with it lately. we had a dope organizers’ potluck last night, today i facilitated a very engaging discussion with our Radical Feminisms reading group, and tomorrow i’ll facilitate a discussion group on Militant Research in the Twin Cities.
if you’re interested in organizing a similar kind of free school in your area, let me know and i can hook you up with advice and an ‘EXCO-in-a-box’ customizable version of our website (which allows online class publicity and registration).

My Oscar picks. Go Il Divo!
F’wha!?! Dude, I can’t believe you voted Avatar for best picture! In case you didn’t read Zizek’s scathing critique, you should know that shit’s straight up racist, bourgeois heteronormative, and “superficial Hollywood Marxism.” The Naxalites might put you up against the wall for this counter-revolutionary vote.
But, I agree that it’s a beautiful movie, and I love the inter-species anarcho-communism, especially those cute floaty jellyfish.

I was reading the trivia section for Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and came across this:
While filming the whipping scene, the crew played a practical joke on Harrison Ford. While he was chained to a large stone, Barbra Streisand appeared, dressed in a leather dominatrix outfit. She…
The Bricks We Throw at Police Today Will Build the Liberation Schools of Tomorrow
Renew the strikes and extend their reach. Occupy the student stores and loot them. Sell off the computers in the lab to raise funds. Set up social spaces for students and non-students alike to come in and use freely. Appropriate the copy machines and make news of the revolt. Takeover the cafeterias and bars and begin preparing the communal feast. Burn the debt records and the construction plans. Chisel away the statues and vandalize the pictures of the old order. In short, create not an ‘alternative’ that can easily make its fit within the existent, but rather a commune in which power is built to destroy capitalist society. When faced with a university building, the choices are limited; either convert it to ashes or begin the immediate materialization of the international soviet.
To all waged and unwaged workers – students or not, unemployed, precarious or criminal we call on you to join this struggle. The universities can become not only our playgrounds but also the foundations from which we can build a partisan war machine fit for the battle to retrieve our stolen lives.
And to the majority of the students, from those paying their way to those swimming in debt, all used as collateral by the Regents, who bravely occupied buildings across California and fought the police against the barricades – we say this clearly: we are with you! We stood by you as you faced down the police in the storming rain and defended the occupiers. Your actions are an inspiration to us all and we hope to meet you again on the front lines. In you we see the spirit of insurgent students everywhere.
As our Austrian friends recently told us, “Take out your hairspray and your lighter”! Tear down the education factory. Attack the Left and everything that it “represents.” Attack the new bosses before they become the old ones. Life serves the risk taker – and we’re rolling the fucking dice!
FOR ANARCHY AND COMMUNISM!
