Cold & bright but a great afternoon for connection & conversation. We talked to so many & encouraged so many to seek out the people & orgs doing good work in the community. If you need some ideas on different ways to engage with the work being done, drop by the free store next Sunday! #alaskasky

This Saturday, millions of people around the US will gather for the No Kings demonstrations. It's a good opportunity to propose more concrete forms of resistance. One thing you could do is set up a table distributing zines and other literature. You can find some here: crimethinc.com/NoKingsMarch

Another sticker sneak peek! The first order of books we're going to carry came in, too. As more titles trickle in over the next few weeks, we can't help but be excited about curating this inventory. Looking at the end-ish of April for the launch of the pop-up market booth!

A bag of black & white stickers. The only one that is visible reads: "always carry a book - Red Current Distro AK"

Here's a sneak peak at some of the stickers that we're going to be carrying at pop-up markets next year. Over the next few months, we'll be busy working on more stickers, pins, patches, & tote bags as well as procuring some of the best books from leftist publishers. We'll keep you updated!

A clear, plastic bag holding several packs of stickers. The first visible sticker is black text on a white background that reads: I got my HRT from the merch table at my local punk show. The next one is white text on a black background with a photo of a smiling man who may be a politician or something. The second sticker's text reads: This man ate my son. The last visible sticker is white text on a black background with three brooms in the Iron Front formation. The last sticker's text reads: Direct hexes get the goods.

FPF's @seth-stern.bsky.social also wrote for @theintercept.com about how this "guilt by literature" case about anarchist zines will ultimately impact the press.

The Feds Want to Make It Illegal to Even Possess an Anarchist Zine

Daniel Sanchez is facing federal charges for what free speech advocates say is a clear attack on the First Amendment.

Incarcerated people have long faced discipline for reading literature that guards don't like. Now Daniel Sanchez Estrada is facing federal trial tomorrow for possessing anarchist zines. Jeremy wrote for @theintercept.com about how the case could bring prison style censorship to the outside world.

Q: “What are you in here for? Murder? Robbery?" A: “Worse, possession of zines" “Sanchez Estrada is facing up to 20 years behind bars for allegedly moving a box of anarchist zines from his parents’ house to another residence"

Prison-Style Free Speech Censorship Is Coming for the Rest of Us

The outcome of a court case could decide whether the Trump administration can criminalize simply possessing political literature.
