Welcome to the book fair on 17 and 18 May 2025! (Gent,Belgium)

The sun is shining again and the anarchist book fair is back! The 21st edition already.

We still want to celebrate the paper in our hands, far away from
the digital nightmare that creeps into our most intimate circles. At
the book fair, you will find plenty of other publications besides books, brochures, pamphlets, posters and stickers. From old novels and revolutionary classics, across philosophy and poetry to
contemporary social criticism or the latest calls to struggle: they
start from the will to radically change the world. They share ideas and try to deepen them. Ideas: not marketable, like-able, goody-goody opinions without commitment.

But the book fair is much more!

The anarchist book fair is also an international gathering of
anarchists and anti-authoritarians, with formal and informal
discussions. We want the book fair to contribute to strengthening the anarchist movement here. We see it as a tool to deepen ideas, an opportunity to launch proposals and to forge links
between individuals and groups. We want to share our passions with
each other and create a context where words and deeds dance together and reinforce each other.

Taking responsibility for freeing a horse by ALF – Anarchist Anti-Speciesist Direct Action Cell (City of Kabalas ,Greece)

On April 22nd, we freed a horse that was chained in a field in Nikisiani, Kavala. We led the horse away from the place where it was confined and left it on the mountain, hoping that it would gallop independently towards freedom.

While traveling through the countryside, we saw something we already knew. That many animals live confined behind barbed wire, in cages or tied up in the yards of houses and fields. From sheep, goats, cows, chickens, dogs, horses, donkeys, and even deer.

Four Construction Vehicles Burned at Data Center in Georgia (USA)

At the end of March, some entered the construction site of the data center hypercampus east of Atlanta, Georgia and burned 4 construction vehicles. This was done to oppose data centers that quickly exhaust the limited water supply of the region. This is another example of the country’s tendencies to externalize the costs of their relentless wealth hoarding to southeastern United States. They have chosen the south as an area of ​​sacifice, that is, a place to deposit the most unpleasant industries and their waste. For them, our home is barely available within such parameters, as it can still be used as a landfill. Thus, the people who acted insist that those who try to steal our water, air and land must at least endure loss and embarrassment on their way to hell.

This specific data center has aimed at facilitating AI connection for local companies. AI not only use more water than other computer processes, but is quickly becoming a way for the state to increase its intrusion in our personal life. And more and more are used by police and state forces to monitor those who oppose them. The people who burned these machines do not believe that our thoughts and movements should be used for profit or incarceration.

Greece: Incendiary attack-Thessaloniki by Anarchist arsons

At midnight on Thursday 3/4, we set fire to a van belonging to the Avance company in the Upper Town.

This company is a Greek company that has evolved and is making huge profits by exploiting the “most productive sector of the Greek economy”, tourism. With branches in all tourist areas and mainly the islands, it proves to us the lie of the ruling class that the development of tourism is good for all of us. They see the super profits of Greek and foreign capital, while we have a different picture.

For us, tourism is the 6-month season, gruelling 12-hour days, containers, “underwater services” and the exploitation of workers. For us, tourism is reflected in the murder of Antonis Kargiotis who was considered a refugee because he did not fit the profile of the rich white tourist. And of course, tourism means in our everyday life Airbnb, extremely expensive rents, a change in the structure of cities with the centres filled with hotels, shops and luxurious houses, while those who live and work here but do not fit the image built by capital are expelled to the suburbs. In two words, tourism means CLASS WAR.

Athens,Greece: Counter-information campaign at bus stops against the slaughter of animals at Easter from a struggle for total liberation and anarchy

COUNTERINTELLIGENCE ACTION AT BUS STOPS AGAINST THE SLAUGHTER OF ANIMALS ON EASTER

On the evening of “Maundy” Thursday, at the time when the mass slaughter of lambs and goats was at its peak, we carried out a counter-information campaign against this slaughter at bus stops in the centre of Athens. We unlocked the windows of the stops, stuck posters inside them and sealed them with silicone in order to prevent municipal crews from removing them immediately, which so far seems to have been successful.

The poster text:

YOUR TRADITIONAL CUSTOMS DRAW BLOOD

“Non-human animals experience pain, confinement, and brutal slaughter within a system of power and exploitation for profit. But lambs, goats, sheep, chickens, cows, pigs feel and seek life and freedom.”

Let us stand against the slaughter and exploitation of animals.

Sabotage, Arsons Attacks

About the coordinated attack on the prisons over the last two nights (France)

Armored guardhouse of the screws, in the entrance area of the Toulon-La Farlède prison, night of Monday to Tuesday April 15, 2025.

The nights of Sunday to Monday, April 14, and Monday to Tuesday, April 15, were marked by attacks on several penitentiary structures and their minions, in a dozen towns in the south of France and the Paris suburbs. Prison staff cars parked in parking lots (Réau, Valence, Villepinte, Aix-Luynes, Nîmes), alongside the national prison school (Agen) or in front of their staff quarters (Marseille, Nanterre) went up in smoke. In addition, the entrance to a prison was machine-gunned (Toulon-La Farlède), and the gate to an ERIS base was set on fire (Aix-Luynes).

This “coordinated attack” over two consecutive nights led the National Anti-Terrorist Prosecutor’s Office (PNAT) to take charge of the investigation, which was then entrusted to the Anti-Terrorist Sub-Directorate of the Judicial Police, local services and the Directorate General of Internal Security (DGSI). The investigation includes “three charges, including terrorist association”, explained the Minister of Justice today, because “the very nature of the action” reflects a “concerted operation aimed at seriously disturbing public order through intimidation”. As for the guards, they are naturally disgusted, as Damien Tripenne, national secretary of the CGT penitentiary union, said on a major radio station: “I have comrades, colleagues, who are devastated because their vehicles have been targeted, their homes have been targeted… fear will have to change sides” (RTL, 15/4).

Athens,Greece : Solidarity attacks for comrade D. Klette

Daniela Klette, now 66, joined the revolutionary movement as a teenager. In 1978, a year after the “German Autumn” with the deaths of the “historical members” of the RAF in Stamheim prison, the 19-year-old Klette joined the local Red Help group (a solidarity organization for revolutionary prisoners) in Wiesbaden. There she met Birgit Hogefeld and Wolfgang Grams, who together would join the RAF’s armed struggle a few years later.

Together with other comrades, they will carry out actions of high
political importance, even in the conditions of capitalist restoration
in East Germany and “German unification”. Among other things, the German police charge Klette with participation in the bombing and complete destruction of the Weiterstadt prison and in the attack on the American embassy during the invasion of Iraq.

A coordination’s attacks in solidarity with the anarchists M.Μ, D.Ζ. | Deprivation of health care is torture

31/10/24 will remain forever engraved in our hearts, it will be a constant reminder of the reasons we are fighting for. On that day, in Arkadias Street, in Ampelokipi, an explosion occurs following the processing of explosives, with the tragic consequence of the death of the anarchist guerrilla Kyriakos Xymitiris and the serious injury of the anarchist Marianna M.

Marianna is transferred to Evangelismos Hospital with multiple injuries and a haematoma in her head. The anti-terrorist gang don’t miss an opportunity to take a blood sample from her, as long as she hasn’t fully regained consciousness. In the following days, a horror show begins inside the hospital, with her comrade isolated, her privacy violated and the interrogator herself pressuring her to testify, while she was not yet in a position to talk. The climate of revenge culminates with her transfer to prison on 15/11, just one day after undergoing surgery. From then on, imprisoned in Korydallos women’s prison, she is faced with miserable sanitary conditions and total lack of medical care. These conditions constitute a form of torture that shows the eternal hatred that the state has for every captured and oppressed activist. Marianna has not been given a CT brain scan to monitor the haematoma during the months she has been held in prison, with her dizziness constantly worsening. On the contrary, she has been informed by the prison neurologist that unless she has an epileptic seizure, she will not go to hospital.

Italy: Anarchist comrade Juan Sorroche. Open letter re the invitation to participate in the Anarchist Publishing and Propaganda Fair in Rome as an anarchist prisoner

Juan Sorroche: Open letter re the invitation to participate in the Anarchist Publishing and Propaganda Fair in Rome as anarchist prisoner. To those who organised it, those who are going to it, and all the comrades, anarchists and not, who would like to read my considerations

Hola comrades everyone,

I received the books with the Fair material at the beginning of March and read them with great interest, particularly concerning the Publishing and Propaganda Fair due to be held in Rome on 4-5-6 April 2025. I thank you for the invitation to the prisoner comrades to participate and keep up the discussions between outside and inside and not break the link of solidarity with those of us who find ourselves locked up. And I thank you for the sign of solidarity

But I feel obliged to answer, concentrating in this letter and in your organized space exclusively on the net positions you have decided to take. The discourse, yes, is very divisive, so I think it’s very important and fundamental that there be collective perspectives and the broadest possible continuity in this respect, also with us, prisoners and not only. With compromises among comrades. For me personally compromise is not negative and not always enemy in absolute, on the contrary. I am for clear compromises between all comrades, male and female. Concerning the net position you have decided to take. As far as I am concerned these are a priori decisions, with automatic mechanisms and methods, decided elsewhere. It is therefore deciding exclusively whether to adhere and then perhaps discuss questions that have clearly already been decided.

Text of the imprisoned anarchist Kostantinos K. from the Kassavetia prisons (Greece)

Text of the imprisoned anarchist Kostantinos K.

“To govern you is to watch you. To inspect you, to spy on you, to direct you, to encase you in laws, to regulate you, to record you…To control you, to measure you, to weigh you, to censor you, to order you… It means to tax you, to drink your blood… To terrorize you, to beat you, to disarm you, to strangle you, to imprison you, to try you, to condemn you, to deport you…
This is government, this is its justice, this is its morality.”

-Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

As long as we experience modern totalitarianism, as long as the blades of domination cripple us, solidarity will heal our wounds like medicine. Even if they bury us, like seeds we will sprout, here and there, irregularly. In the most barren soils. We will bloom at unspecified times where they least expect it. Contaminating the fields of modern states.

On 12/11/24, I was sentenced to 6 months of pretrial detention. From the first days in prison, I submitted a request for release, which was rejected 40 days later. I submitted a second request and after waiting two months, I received a negative response, while at almost the same time, the case was scheduled for trial on May 2. This, in my opinion, is a ploy, as they rushed to set the court date without me having time to make a third request. Because in this case, for bureaucratic reasons, the procedures regarding the file would cease and therefore the result would be that I would be released due to the end of the term. However, I am quoting this as a note. I believe it is more important to mention what these responses of the judicial councils were regarding my requests. These are 30 pages of unfounded allegations and successive leaps of logic. In them, a ridiculous story unfolds where, given my guilt, they argue that the methodology and characteristics of this action demonstrate a person capable of committing more similar crimes, taking into account my particular personality, which they refer to again and again.
