AK Press is a book publisher and distributor out of Oakland, California, whose stated aim is, “Supplying radical words and images to as many people as possible.” ‘Radical’, in the AK sense, variously includes guides to home-brewing, essays on feminist porn, the translated works of French and Latin American revolutionaries, manifestos for queer liberation, and more than a few books explaining the inner workings of late capitalism. They’re anarchists, you see, and anarchists are prolific publishers.

Hello, comrade!

It is not enough to simply seek the truth, it is insufficient to know that things are bad and that change is necessary. Actions need to be taken, and YOU are the action! It is good to dream about freedom, but what’s the point if we live like slaves? It’s easy to talk about helping one when every day you ignore the ones in need.

Welcome to the start of 2013. As many of you probably know the biggest anarchist event in the Bay Area is the 8 days of anarchy which featured books, a conference, a memorial, a picnic, and some celebration (congrats to RCA/Hot Mess)! There is so much work associated with the 8 days that it's hard to say the year properly begins for us until we drop the last guest at the airport. It is only then that we can consider getting back to work on 2013. So here we are, ready to begin or to at least announce what we have been up to the last three months. We have three new titles from our publishing endeavor, three new pocket books from Elephant Editions, a new issue of The Anvil (#4), and a brand new LBC Catalog (our first glossy!).

From LBC Blog Anarchist publishing thrives on visible anarchist activity. The past 18 months has been an exciting time for both, which raises the question of what's next? When we consider future titles we do it with an eye on what will inspire the next wave of activity: what informed the last wave and what were its limitations? With this in mind we publish our newest title WhitherBuro: Applied Metaphysics, an epitaph on the grave of America. You can read the extended introduction to WhitherBuro: Applied Metaphysics here.

After much toil the Winter 2013 "Education" issue of Fifth Estate is now available! Anarchist Violence or State Violence? Propaganda of the Deed, Taking it OFF the streets! From Ritual to Resistance, John Zerzan in London, and more!

We all start life with our teapot intact and at some point a little crack starts and slowly grows, or maybe one day we slip and the whole thing just crashes to the floor. Those with intact teapots, they don't know what its like to try and make tea with all the water leaking out. You can't do it. The play of power that is accountability and how it currently (mal)functions in the anarchist 'community' has become a great fissure in my teapot. Its a big crack because I used to be very invested in it but it isn't working anymore. When tea is made now, because of this crack and, of course a few others, all that happens is that steam comes out and people get burned.
