Sprout Distro used to do these great anarchist zine round ups each month. They've gotten more irregular now, but I made a full list of periodicals here, so just thought to post the most recent ones also for those interested.

One of the zines I thought people especially from here would like is called Rupture, a festival caravan wrote a call out for people to join them on a trip from the UK to Burkina Faso, then talked about it in the next issue, plus some photos here.

Same list with pictures on me blog.

Cultural Survival #43.4 – Quarterly

Our work on the front lines of advocacy with international Indigenous communities is predicated on the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples and our programming works to inform Indigenous people of their rights, issues and threats affecting their communities.

Cultural Survival believes that vibrant and durable communities rest on the principles of self-determination, human rights, informed citizenry and access to information, the freedom of expression, and the right to organize and shape the future in a way consistent with one’s tradition, language, culture and community – and we believe Indigenous Peoples have the power and solutions to solve many of today’s problems when respected and empowered to do so.
