This is a bit from the introduction: There is a line that divides many people whose struggles I respect. I won’t name this line or define either camp, to avoid entrenching them, and I don’t know of any fair definitions that have been put forward by any of those involved in this antagonism. Most of us are familiar with the strawmen that litter this battlefield, though. Those on one side are guilty of “identity politics,” those on the other are “privileged” or “dogmatic.”
I found this writing to be thought provoking, and it contributed to my thinking about engaging in social struggle with others, particularly when interacting with folks that come from different places, in some regards, and similar places in other ways.
Well, enough of my somewhat inarticulate writing right now...go read the zine and check out the other offerings at the site.
And at SubRosa we also have paper copies of this and other interesting zines. Yup, it's true.

Comments on the SubRosa website are fully moderated. As a collective, we agreed that the purpose of the website was to promote SubRosa, not to provide an online place for lively and invigorating debate. We hope that the space itself is where conversations on the nature of anarchism and local projects will take place. That said, we occasionally approve comments that are informative or reflect a viewpoint we feel it is important for website visitors to read.
