QZAP - The Queer Zine Archive Project @qzap.bsky.social · 20/07/2026
We are incredibly grateful to be the recipient of one of this year's Jen Angel Anarchist Media Grants. About a year ago we ran out of space to store all of the queer zines that have been donated or acquired by our archive, and this grant's funding will be going to rectify that. #circleaarchivists

Anarchists have long questioned the value of talking to the corporate-controlled, mainstream media since they so often mischaracterize and misrepresent anarchists and anarchist ideas. So why talk to them? Read the full article here: anarchistagency.com/shaping-anar...
Shaping anarchist narratives. Why you should talk to the media. The mainstream media have done tremendous damage to the work done by anarchists over the past 200-odd years by misreporting, misrepresenting, belittling, and demonizing us. But they have done just as much or more damage by not seeing us at all.As anarchists, we operate outside the boundaries of what most mainstream journalists assume are subject areas or "beats" worth covering: government and mainstream politics, business and economics, religion, culture and art, and community in the de-politicized way they are taught to think of it. By insisting that humanity and the earth can be understood without reference to - even in opposition to - capitalism and the State, we place ourselves outside their accustomed system of value. If we choose to talk to mainstream reporters, then our job isn't just to give them information in hopes they will report our activities and views accurately. It's twofold.First, to understand what they are covering, how our work and our perspective can fit into it, and how to make ourselves valuable to them as sources. Second, to educate them about what anarchism means, what it aspires to, and what it is not. The same applies for op-ed editors, who consider opinion pieces submitted by outsiders; their bias is always in favor of people with the kind of professional credentials they are taught to respect and demographic profile the ad sales team wants to reach.Often this is a highly opportunistic matter for media outlets; a protest, an occupation, or an arrest can suddenly make a reporter hungry for information and insight from us. We should be there to offer it. Unless we can get the media to understand that anarchism is a valid tradition of thought and action with an intelligent point of view on the events of our day, they will continue to marginalize us, and do us harm in the process. Read the full article and find resources and tips on talking to the media at anarchistagency.com.

The audacity of people who pretend that everything that's going on now came down to a vote is astonishing. It ignores the culpability of BOTH parties in setting the precedents currently being weaponized by fascism. It's like nothing ever happened, and all was well with the world before 2025.
