Density

Our bonds keep us strong

Today marks four years since Willem van Spronsen was killed while apparently taking action to disable the fleet of buses that served the Northwest Detention Center, a private immigration detainment facility.

You can read his final statement here:

'A revolution on a world scale will take a very long time. But it is also possible to recognize that it is already starting to happen.

The easiest way to get our minds around it is to stop thinking about revolution as a thing—“the” revolution, the great cataclysmic break—and instead ask “what is revolutionary action?”

We could then suggest: revolutionary action is any collective action which rejects, and therefore confronts, some form of power or domination and in doing so, reconstitutes social relations—even within the collectivity—in that light.

Revolutionary action does not necessarily have to aim to topple governments.

Attempts to create autonomous communi- ties in the face of power (using Castoriadis’ definition here: ones that constitute themselves, collectively make their own rules or principles of operation, and continually reexamine them), would, for instance, be almost by definition revolutionary acts.

And history shows us that the continual accumulation of such acts can change (almost) everything.'
