Gendered and Racialized Violence: Financialization, Primary Accumulation, and Global Consolidation of Illegal Economies
Amidst the dystopic urban landscapes of militarized financialization springs hope. Part II of our paper outlines strategies that prefigure alternative futures organized through urban anarchist tactics that reclaim urban spaces from global financialized imaginaries. In times of crises, community self-defense programs are initiated by the very people against whom the capitalist state has waged a war. Our paper outlines key strategies of anarchist communities/social movements and how they negotiate access to health care, organize food sovereignty, negotiate police state violence, and actively dismantle hierarchies organizing subjugation. Our paper is grounded in our own grass roots work.
