Zusammenfassung
We've thrown around the term insurrectionary anarchism in recent discussions, so in our ninth episode we seize the moment and dive headlong into this tendency, exploring where it came from and what it looks like today. We also review the classic Italian insurrectionary text Armed Joy; look back over a summer's worth of animal liberation actions; interview a supporter of the California Prison Hunger Strike, as it enters its 55th day; share some more listener feedback on nihilism, and plenty more. Tune in--the time to act is now! {September 3, 2013}

- 325 and ContraInfo are great places to find breaking news from fiery global struggles, in English. 
- Rolling Thunder published Say you want an insurrection in issue #8. It includes a little more background on insurrectionary anarchism as well as a critique of how it’s used by anarchists in the United States today. 
- While no longer in print, A Murder of Crows, Killing King Abacus, and Insurrection Magazine are classics, and contain some really great analysis. 
- For thoughts on insurrectionary anti-repression approaches, check out the Marini Trial, Revolutionary Solidarity, and To Libertarians. 
- Many strains of insurrectionary anarchism are informed by illegalism and individualist anarchism. Wolfi Landstreicher’s Against the Logic of Submission and Renzo Novatore’s Toward the Creative Nothing are good starting places. 
- And, of course, if you want to go straight to the source, read everything you can get your hands on by Alfredo Bonanno including the text we reviewed in this show’s Chopping Block, Armed Joy.

- Thanks to the North American Animal Liberation Press Office for providing much of our news this episode. Extra-special thanks to our office jobs, who unknowingly paid us to read these articles.
