    and at 6pm: A Conversation with AK Thompson:  Join activist, writer and scholar AK Thompson for an informal discussion about his recent book, Keywords for Radicals. What is the power of language and how does the struggle for what words mean reflect the very struggles that those words describe? Lets talk it out!

AK Thompson got kicked out of high school for publishing an underground newspaper called The Agitator and has been an activist, writer, and social theorist ever since. Currently teaching social theory at Fordham University, his publications include Black Bloc, White Riot: Anti-Globalization and the Genealogy of Dissent (AK Press, 2010) and Sociology for Changing the World: Social Movements/Social Research (Fernwood, 2006). Between 2005 and 2012, he served on the Editorial Committee of Upping The Anti: A Journal of Theory and Action. His newest book which he co-edited is Keywords for Radicals: The Contested Vocabulary of Late-Capitalist Struggle, also published by AK Press.

-Monday, Dec 5th, at 7:15pm: Sin Barras meeting

    From their website "We will discuss ways that Sin Barras can support local and state-wide abolitionist campaigns and how we can further support loved ones inside and their families. We will also discuss what's going right here in Santa Cruz County. So please, bring your ideas and your desire to end the prison industrial complex!" https://sinbarras.org/ 

-Tuesday, Dec 6th, 6pm:  Out of the Broom Closet: reading/discussion/practice group at the intersection of magic, spirit & politics (for December focusing on paganism and anti-racism)

    OUT OF THE BROOM CLOSET is a reading/discussion/practice group that engages at the intersection of magic, spirit & politics...that is open to anyone with curiosity and respect, who can get down with its basic frame work. The intention of this group is...to meet regularly with community, share ideas, learn and practice together at the intersection of politics and magic in order to build capacity, intimacy and a framework for other branches of collaboration to be created and supported.

And the SubRosa fundraiser is still ongoing!

(and money is processed through a secure WePay account).

We appreciate any support you can offer to this anarchist community space...large and small...it all helps!  We barely scrape by each month and feel further energized for SubRosa to be an active and supportive presence in Santa Cruz, especially in these trying times. And Thanks!


Note:  You can choose how regularly you contribute to SubRosa and the default on the website is weekly.  This can be changed to other time frames as well.  Also, the Action Network, which hosts the fundraiser requests a "tip" and this can also be adjusted from the default of 10% to "no tip" or even more.

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.
