Overthrowing Capitalism, Volume 3

This is a poetry anthology for activists, a poetry of transformative action and engagement. Overthrowing Capitalism, Vol. 3: Reclaiming Community brings together 79 poets, cultural activists writing in twelve languages (with translations), offering their visions around the theme of this year's anthology, Reclaiming Community. As every gentrified or ghettoized neighborhood knows, capitalism destroys communities. So how do we restore community, arrive back at community, how do we reclaim community? This is the 3rd volume of Overthrowing Capitalism, published annually by the Revolutionary Poets Brigade of San Francisco. All three anthologies were edited by brigadistas Jack Hirschman and John Curl. The Brigade started here in San Francisco and now encompasses brigades of activist poets in other cities nationally and internationally, all responding with transformative culture in this emerging era of revolutionary social upheaval.
