The Atlanta Radical Book Fair is a gathering of radical left writers, publishers, artists, activists, and community organizations from across the American South and beyond.

On Our Own Authority! Publishing is a volunteer-run autonomous research press based in Atlanta, Georgia, founded in 2012. Specializing in anarchist and radical literature, we publish intellectual history, social movement history, and studies of global political thought, emphasizing themes of anti-colonialism, direct democracy, and workers’ self-management.

The West End Street Groomers are a community safety patrol in Atlanta, organized by former “street tribe” members who grew tired of life on the streets and in the jails and decided to transform their lives and to reach out to others in similar situations to help them do the same.. Their mission is to maintain safety in Black communities by taking direct action against  the violence of drug dealers and police officers who target communities of color.

A World Without Police are an international collective of revolutionary activists who work to connect people struggling against everyday police violence, and to provide practical, organizational, and theoretical tools for use in the movement for police and prison abolition.
