Staff Pick by comrade: FG

A look into the strategy and philosophy of Black Bloc as a tactic through a postructuralist framework. Thompson traces the lineage of the Bloc through its North American inception in the 90's, and demystifies common misconceptions about race, gender and violence while laying compelling evidence for the continued use of this often attacked and misunderstood political act.
