Second hand.

After twenty years on death row, Mumia Abu-Jamal was released from his death sentence . . . but not the conviction. This once prominent radio reporter was convicted for the murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner in 1982, after a trial many have criticized as profoundly biased. Live from Death Row is a collection of his prison writings—an impassioned yet unflinching account of the brutalities and humiliations of prison life, and a scathing indictment of racism and political bias in the American judicial system.

Second hand.

Perhaps the greatest migration in America's history is the early twentieth-century movement of African Americans from the southern states to the urban Northeast and Midwest. For the first time ever, Up South captures the totality of this pivotal black experience in a single volume. Including photographs, letters, and turn-of-the-century items in the Chicago Defender, Crisis, and Opportunity, as well as writing by Zora Neale Hurston, James Weldon Johnson, Ralph Ellison, Richard Wright, Arna Bontemps, Mary McLeod Bethune, and W.E.B. Du Bois, Up South is a moving and eye-opening anthology of African American literature, scholarship, and journalism from the first half of this century.

Second hand.

danny to be honest

i have nothing for you, no earth-
shattering shaking words, no metaphors

that turn the heavens bluer than blue,
i am now the person you turn from

in the street, you think, i will never be
old as she

and you remember oh yes you have a satchel
full of memories that leap up to greet you

now and then: how you run to the window
and witness the confetti cascading from

the bronx roofs and everyone dancing
on sherman ave, and you ask why

everyone is so happy, and your mother
says, the soldiers are coming home

and you are running up the stairs
in the london underground in your

anello and davide heels, your paco rabanne
purple/yellow huge plastic earrings

and you can run in those heels, you can
walk up the five and a half flights

to your apartment today, you have
lots of stories but who wants to hear

when you glance in the mirror
you see a horror flick, oh well

another day, and i'll let you in on a secret

Tweedehands.

The book begins with Pyrexia, the s*x goddess, who exists in a realm accessible to humans only through the GUM machine. Put your nickel in, pull the lever (so to you type in a PPP (Provisionally Probable Pathname), which is not unlike the URL's used on the Internet, except that since the universe is governed by Chaos, the result is often wildly different even if you use the exact same PPP), and take your chances. Abelard just got lucky when he found Pyrexia. Unfortunately he forgot to record the PPP, so he can't go back. But that is the least of his problems.
There's his relation with his female half, or anima, named Kahani, from whom he's hiding his desire for reuniting with Pyrexia. There's the necessity of keeping his credit up on the LLL (Linked Lattice at Large), which allows him to get his e-mail, but the rules have evolved nightmarishly so that he's in danger of going bankrupt. And there are the strange situations he finds himself in on the GUM trips, most of which place him with impoverished and sometimes demented personalities of early 21st century New York City or Paris.

Tweedehands.

Kiev, eind jaren tachtig. Het eens zo machtige Sovjetimperium wankelt. Tijdens een roerige debatavond aan de universiteit in Kiev houdt Dani’s jeugdvriend Pavel een geestdriftig betoog tegen het socialisme. Wanneer Pavel vervolgens verdwijnt, gaat Dani naar hem op zoek. Zijn tocht voert hem langs zonderlinge mensen en verlaten oorden waar niemand meer iets te zeggen heeft. In gedachten keert hij terug naar de verhalen die Pavel hem vroeger vertelde. Verhalen over kosmonauten en onvermoeibare arbeiders, over de komst van een paradijs op aarde. Wat is er gebeurd? Waarom is Pavel verdwenen? En wat is er nog over van zijn dromen? Met elke stap komt Dani dichter bij de onthulling van een pijnlijke geschiedenis.

A powerful, unflinching memoir on feminism, activism, and the search for belonging in an era of digital resistance.
A bold and unfiltered exploration of feminism, activism, and identity in the digital age. As the creator of one of the most influential and impactful online feminist platforms to-date, Greco offers a personal and political reflection on the highs and lows of digital organizing, the challenges of belonging, and the shifting landscapes of feminist discourse.

In The Guerrilla Feminist, Greco takes readers inside the world of digital activism, feminist organizing, and the deeply personal search for belonging in a world that is at once hyperconnected and profoundly alienating. As the creator of Guerrilla Feminism, one of the most influential online feminist platforms of the past several decades, Greco has witnessed firsthand the transformative potential of digital activism—and its limits.

Through sharp and compelling narrative that weave memoir with cultural critique, Greco dissects the contradictions of online feminism, from the power of collective resistance to the toxicity of social media callouts, harassment, and ideological gatekeeping. She explores themes of trauma, disability, identity, and activism’s personal toll, offering a deeply nuanced look at what it means to fight for justice in an era of ever-shifting digital landscapes.
Blunt, incisive, and deeply resonant, The Guerrilla Feminist is essential reading for those navigating the complexities of feminism, online organizing, and politics today.

New.

Unequal Exchange: Past, Present, and Future is Torkil Lauesen’s definitive synthesis of sixty years of debate on the political economy of imperialism. Returning to Arghiri Emmanuel’s groundbreaking theory of unequal exchange—the systematic transfer of value from low-wage regions of the Global South to high-wage countries in the Global North—Lauesen reconstructs the historical, theoretical, and political stakes of the concept with unmatched clarity. Moving from the early structures of colonial extraction to contemporary global value chains, he shows how wage differentials, outsourcing, and the international division of labor continue to polarize the world-system, shaping everything from living standards to global political alignments.

Drawing on archival material, as well as contributions from dependency theorists, world-systems analysis, ecological economists, and contemporary empirical research, Lauesen demonstrates how unequal exchange underpins the prosperity of the imperial core while undermining development in the periphery. Across chapters on measurement, solidarity, crisis, technological transfer, ecological degradation, multipolarity, and socialist transition, he lays out a comprehensive account of how unequal exchange evolved—and why it remains central to understanding the 21st-century global order.

This book offers a rigorous, accessible, and politically urgent guide for scholars, organizers, and readers seeking to comprehend the structural foundations of imperialism today and the possibilities for building a more equal and sustainable world-system.

On that morning in 1974, when I left Quang Tri Province, I could hear anti-aircraft fire in the distance. A U.S. bomber was violating the Cease Fire Agreement, but no one in our group paid any attention. I too, remained calm, sure that we were well-defended. My host, Bui Thi Me, the Vice Minister of Health of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of South Viet Nam held Bui Thi Me, Viet Nam, 1974my hand as we walked to the jeep. She had lost her husband, two sons, a brother and her best friend in the War, but her eyes still sparkled with confidence and kindness. She must have noticed I was fighting back tears. “Arlene. Don’t be sad. We are part of the worldwide family of militant women. We will meet again—next time in Ho Chi Minh City, or Paris or even New York.”

Gripping the reader from the very beginning, Scars and Medals is the journey of Mohanad Alsayed—from coming of age during the First Intifada, moving to America, and the riveting search for a lost freedom fighter uncle. Including conversations with his grandmother who lived through the Nakba, this work shows the intergenerational connection to Palestine surviving in the face of colonization and occupation. His story is a reminder to us all that Palestinians’ existence is resistance, and the most courageous act is to live.

New.

Politically Unconscious: The Psychic Aftermath of the Sudanese Revolution is Mohamed Khougali's reflection on what it means to organize and think after a revolution has been usurped. Written as both a participant in Sudan's 2018-19 uprising and a working psychotherapist, Khougali weaves together a history of the Sudanese Left, an account of the current war and the racialized financialization that informed the various factions, alongside the development of a new clinical modality he calls "praxis psychotherapy."

Refusing the reductive binaries of international media coverage and the moral puritanism he sees paralyzing contemporary leftist thought, Khougali argues that Sudan cannot be understood apart from a longer "irrational revolution" linking Khartoum to Darfur, and Sudan to Palestine, through the same circuits of imperial accumulation and waste. At once political history and clinical experiment, Politically Unconscious is a work with lessons for comrades involved in the struggle—in Sudan, and far beyond.
