Good Morning Comrades! There is a bucket load to talk about today and the next coming days and I will try to keep it as brief as possible. There are a number of exciting Black Lodges releases kicking off this week and below is a brief run down of what you can expect from that end of my little dream world over the next few weeks.
Important to remember for a lot of you new friends on here is that the paying supporters of this newsletter get a never expiring discount code on any and all products as well as an early access link to drops. You can do so below.
This weeks starts with a special project instigated by my friend Hoschi here in Hamburg that resulted in this limited edition black milspec BDU jacket. The jacket comes with three custom patches, with one velcro patch for your customization. This jacket is limited to 20 pieces and will be released on Friday morning with a link going out to the paying subscribers on Thursday. Following that jacket release I will be dropping the Riot Smiley graphic again on both a black short sleeve, with a back print this time as well as a Long Sleeve Limited Edition, accompanied by a special print for the first 20 orders. Again, links will be sent out via this email and this drop will happen on Wednesday, March 3rd. Going further into March there will be special bag releases again with custom patches, a Riot Boilersuit, yes you read that right as well as some exciting collaborations that I will announce as soon as they are ready.
New Week New Playlist. I know I keep saying how extremely good these playlists have been over the last few weeks, and they have been but for fucks sake this one is genuinely a trip and a half. Not going to bother you with railing off the names of the artists in here but this 3 hour trip is going to get you so fucking horny it’s beyond me. It floats perfectly between pure hedonistic escapism, dancing, dreaming, angry punches to starting worldwide love revolutions. Hear for yourself.
Couple of big anniversaries have just passed, most notably Malcom X’s assassination and the 173rd anniversary of the Communist Manifesto, on which I will be writing a piece for the paying subscribers later this week, however, I wanted to share this incredibly important clip of Malcom X from 1964 at the bastion of imperialistic white civility, the Oxford University Debate Club, that I urge you to watch and listen to today.
Another very worthwhile article I wanted to share with you comes from Crimethinc, entitled: From Punk to Indigenous Solidarity: Four Decades of Anarchism in Brazil.
How To Be An Anti-Capitalist in a Capitalist World
Today’s piece isn’t so much a lesson in direct action but rather an excellent analysis of where Capitalism has or rather is already at in our world. Understanding the constant morphing of this oppressive system is just as vital to understand to build alternative futures than actively withdrawing ourselves from its clutches of misery.
Again, too many hot shots from the last couple of days and since this length of these emails is being limited by everyones email servers I am going to try and keep these as focused as possible with outtakes and bloopers being thrown out over on IG but here is your dose of bullshit put into words.
