Welcome! Newsletter number 46.
There is an irony involved in writing these newsletter. After very busy months, they tend to be short, because very busy means plenty of work for the union, travels, time with the family, and not much left for things I write about here. But there is some…
I was interviewed by Arbetaren about the tragic murder of SAC member Björn Söderberg 25 years ago. Björn had revealed that an organized neo-Nazi was attempting to become a union rep at his workplace. I also spoke at the memorial service.
I contributed a couple of texts – about my trip to Copenhagen in May and about the crisis of voluntary labor in the SAC – to our members’ journal Syndikalisten.
No new review for the blog, but one for ak, about Harry Stürmer’s Der Hund des Terroristen.
Direkte Aktion in Germany published the translation of a piece on “Syndicalism in the Twenty-First Century” that Torsten Bewernitz and I had written in English five years ago.
I discovered that, in 2019, Enemy Combatant brought out my contribution to the 1997 book Women Pirates as a pamphlet. My name is misspelled, so it’s an extra special edition. I have never seen a copy, but a friend promised to get me one.
I interviewed the Bulgarian straight edge band xCHOKEx for DIY Conspiracy.
Tidbits on Soccer vs the State: got mentioned in a text by Stop Cop City United players, and discussed on Radio Yoshi in Peru.
Finally, I made the last place on a list where that position is an honor: the income of Sweden’s “union leaders”. The top incomes are near USD 50 000 a month. Not bad.
More next month. Stay safe!
