This band of women and men rekindled a radical resistance movement that was to inspire a whole new generation. From urban street reclaimers in London and land squatters in Brazil, to Indian farmers protesting GM crops and the Italian White Overall Movement, spontaneous uprisings found a shared enemy—global capital. As events swept from Chiapas to Seattle, Genoa to Bangalore, and summits have been wreathed in tear gas, the new movement has matured into a massive political force—flexible, strategic, and able to resist and adapt to increasingly brutal responses by various states. The editors of this celebratory publishing project have been on the frontline of the movement, working as activists and writers, story chasers and documentarians. A mixture of critical analysis and art book, agitprop, inspirational document, and DIY manual, We Are Everywhere combines innovative graphic design and photographs with texts and interviews with activists, creating a lively, polyphonic insight into the ideas and activities of the movements against capitalism. 10 color and 40 b/w images. Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - we are the swarm I am only at the beginning of we are everywhere...it's strength is that it gives many of us hope for working toward something better than neoliberalism and a global enconomic worldview. It also offers something better than a black/white and either/or view. One essay that provides that perspective so well is "The Sweatshop and the Ivory Tower." It sure got me thinking about the need to connect to humanity all over the world. The book sure doesn't present a cynical viewpoint so far anyway, and I need ...

Kudos to the Notes from Nowhere collective for compiling this beautifully illustrated insightful anthology of essays about the global justice movement! Exploring a wide range of struggles (urban squats, communty gardens, independent media, union organizing, anti-war, anti-biotech, etc.) around the world (Argentina, India, Palestine, Mexico, South Africa, the United States, Italy and elsewhere), "We Are Everywhere" is an inspirational mosaic of stories about everday people working for gender equality, ... Read More Rating: - wonderful This is a wonderful little book--well, may be not so little at 500+ pages. It gives a good overview of the more radical end of the global justice movement (aka, the "so-called anti-globalization movement"), with its emphasis on openness to multiple viewpoints; direct, participatory democracy; direct action; etc. It's divided into six sections, each of which starts by an analytical but accessible essay by the collective members--"Emergence: An Irresistable Global Uprising", "Networks: The Ecology of the ... Read More Rating: - anti-globalization alive and well first, the first reviewer obviously never read the book. the ideas in it are NOT communist or socialist, but ANARCHIST. a good number of the groups mention in the book are organized in a non hierarchal way. this is a good account of the rising anti-globalization movement. with the fall of communism (and the "victory" of capitalism") came what was known as the end of history. the ant-globalism movement is bring about the end of the end of history. capitalists thought they had won ... Read More Rating: - Read Road to Serfdom Instead This is the usual socialist happy-talk about improving justice, from each according to his ability, to each according to his need, etc. It is all a fundamental denial of human nature, a belief that mankind is inherently good, that only our social institutions cause corruption, etc. If they think this system is so good, why is the northern part of Korea pitch black at night, while the southern (capitalist) part is lit up like a beacon of freedom?
