summer What better than to return to the classics (juas-juas) and what better classic than a good dose of old agit-prop (juas-super-duper-juas juas). The below is the cover of "Motherfuckers! In the summer of love for love armed "edited by The Felguera in his collection Notes from Underground, which I bought in one of the stalls of booksellers anarchists who placed in the Plaza Tirso de Molina Madrid on Sunday.
Contains:
- An Overview of Servando Rocha on anti-avant-garde art and direct action movements in the America of the late sixties that are the breeding ground for emerging newspaper Black Mask (not to be confused with another of the same name published in the years 20), the direct action group The Family (not to be confused with the Manson) and finally the Motherfuckers (or more precisely UAWM: Up Against the Wall Motherfuckers! sentence taken from a verse from "Black People!" by Leroi Jones) ;
- A current text of the Wise brothers, members of the British cell King Mob, about his connection to the European and American counter cultural scene;
- An interview the leader of the movement Motherfucker, Ben Morea, in 2006 after decades gone, where he reviews the genesis of the group, its relationship with the Beat Generation, the American radical left of the SDS (the split would lead to the famous "first guerrilla white urban middle class "The Weathermen ) or the Situationist International (which expelled several of its members for their support for Anglo Morea) and some of their most notorious actions as the MOMA closure, its role in the occupation Columbia University, the exchange of "trash for trash" at Lincoln Center in New York, the mock assassination of the poet Ken Koach or manifesto for Valerie Solanas (author of the SCUM Manifesto and shot the King of Pop Art Andy Warhol aka His Majesty);
- All texts and some pictures of the 10 issues of Black Mask, appeared among 1966 and 1968;
- Some Motherfuckers manifestos published in the newspaper The Rat during 1968;
- And a lot of images, as illustrations of fliers of the time or the mug shot of a very young and beautiful Frank Sinatra arrested for adultery in 1938.
is a work of documentation (and generous), which retrieves a lot of materials that would otherwise be rotting in the attic of one's mother of them (because almost all are them, and mothers are the best in the memories, also the radicals). Although it includes some explanations necessary to understand the context, it is not a trial of analysis or cultural criticism. And it's the right thing, because otherwise we would not be published by The Felguera (followers of the spirit of that time and, naturally, reluctant to recovery simplistic, it is not that there is but will not be the ones who make it), what Which is to say that would not be released at all.
The thread of what is said in the book is to be sought outside it, in works like "and this reckless to throw me mud of the narrative of the counterculture, tiradme stones if you think necessary, "the fundamental " The assault on culture. Lettrism utopian currents from a class war " Stewart Home or " Lipstick Traces. A secret history of the twentieth century "by Greil Marcus . If you put the issue can also refer to the group blog we did in the workshop mythologies, vanguards and activism Zemos during the festival in 2008, it is wrong to say it myself, but seeing it now seems that contains a resource base brutal on deconstructed punk and situations. For
wing, first read and then burn container, not the reverse that risk of repeating the Lacombe Lucien I wanted get into the maquis to give up the body and ended up in Nazi Vichy police chasing dissidents. The next post is dedicated to Gauche Divine, I swear.
