Fuck Yeah Radical Literature!: Zine: Quiet Rumors - An Anarcha-Feminist Reader
Note: 1) This is a Digital read. 2) This zine has passed into discontinuation of print. 3) This isn’t the full zine sadly, but what I have of it. My friend Billy has the zine.. I’m hoping he’ll possibly send me a copy of it or something. Regardless, what i have of it is quiet extensive.

Intro:
Up until recently the terms anarchism and feminism were rarely found in the same sentence, much less interpreted as integrally related. Indeed ‘anarcha-feminist’ would appear almost as an oxymoron, Emma Goldman being the single example most people could identify as such.
With this important collection of and about anarcha-feminists over more than a century, stunning female anarchist heroes are restored to our collective memory. And this collection is only a sampling that should lead readers to other foremothers of anarcha-feminism, such as Lucy Parsons, Mother Jones, Jessie Bross Lloyd, Hortensia Black, Sarah Ames, Lizzie Swank Holmes, Johana Greie, Kate Austin, Helen Keller, Lousie Michel, Azecena Fernandez Barbra, and thousands of other historical figures and contemporary feminist anarchists.
The historical amnesia we suffer serves well the state authorities, military-industrial civilization, and capitalist thieves that control our lives and destinies. The Sixties Liberation movements broke through the chains that bound us, thinking we are the first generation to do so, only to discover we had true rebel heroes we could and must learn from and be inspired by. Most of the current younger generation is ignorant of past struggles unless they happen upon some of the small press publications such as this one. Bombarded as we are by the obvious fakery of the mainstream press and textbooks, we often become nihilistic rather than pro-active.
Young working class woman, in particular, being prisoners of the beauty myth and consumer culture, have been short-changed. For in the piecing together of a usable radical past in recent years, women have hardly been present in terms of liberating role models, rather only as an icon or two, or a Florence Nightinggale kind of nurturing woman. Women like Voltairine de Cleyre, Emma Goldman, and Charlotte Wilson are something else, being independent, pro-birth control, and anti-marriage before women had even the right to vote. They were lifelong agitators, on the move, speaking to large and small gatherings, writing calls to action and social/political critiques. They were far ahead of anarchist men in their vision of freedom.
Just like today, men find it difficult or unthinkable to not only give up their male privileges but also their sense of supremacy. Independent radical women often live lonely live if they expect equality. Our task as anarcha-feminists can be nothing less than changing the world and to do that we need to consult our heroic predecessors.
excited to check this out!
CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: Female to Whatever
Female to Whatever is a zine by and about not-so-binary CAFAB (coercively assigned female at birth) trans* folks. This is, hopefully depending on the turn-out, the first issue of a series of zines documenting experiences of CAFAB trans* folks, providing advice, and providing a way to get your artwork out there. Submissions are open to trans* identified folks who were assigned female at birth.* Please send submissions to genderfuked@gmail.com. Anonymous submissions are also accepted via email or by leaving something in the Ask Box at femaletowhatever.tumblr.com/ask. Please let us know if you’d like us to include a pseudonym, bio, or link to your work in your submission.
Possible Topics for submission:
- Misgendering (example: being pegged as a “dude” simply for being in an FTM space).
- Experiences within “Women’s Spaces”/Feminist Spaces.
- Examining experiences with misogyny despite not IDing as a womyn.
- The possibility of male privilege and how that intersects with non-binary identities.
- Gender policing and bullying, in supposedly safe spaces, especially in regards to medical transition.
- Early stages of non-binary transition and identity. Did you identify as a man and pull away from that? Did you always ID as non-binary?
Mediums accepted:
Anything that can be reproduced in a 2D format.
Deadline:
October 1, 2011
*For the “allies” that are offended by this zine “excluding” you, remember that every space is a cisgender space unless otherwise stated. We’re allowed to make way for ourselves.Signal boost!
Also, I find it pretty amusing that someone actually reblogged this in order to express their offense at the quotes around “allies” and “excluding.”
