The site won't allow UK visitors to add the Solnit and Táíwò titles (sad face), but you can get the rest.

I've been quoting from the Davis collection regularly. Her essays provide a great long-term perspective on liberatory change over time.

I'm looking forward to reading How We Get Free. Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor and Jen Parker's Hammer and Hope Magazine had an issue out just before the election. Among the articles is "Why Is the Election Between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris So Close?" by Taylor. She was also the guest on the latest episode of The Dig.

"But what about Verso, where is all their free stuff?" you may be asking. Verso books are not on sale!

thanks, audi alteram partem; bunch of good stuff in that issue of hammer and hope.

come to think of it, has h&h been FPP'ed much? their editorial policy is evidently "absolute bangers only".
