AK Press in Your Ear!

Posted on July 26th, 2010 in AK Authors!, Happenings

A couple of AK-related audio recordings have appeared on the almighty Interweb over the last week or so. I can’t embed either in this post, so you’ll just have to follow the links, comrade.

1) New World from Below Collaborative Book Party

As we’ve mentioned on this blog before, AK Press was one of ten collectives that sponsored an anarchist workshop track at the US Social Forum (A New World from Below). This also included a convergence space where NWFB held a shindig celebrating anarchist authors, editors, and publishers. The lovely folks at the defenestrator recorded it (well, they recorded the talks, not the drinking and partying and such). Go here and scroll to the bottom of the page (though you might want to stop along the way and listen to one of their many interviews) .

2) David Graeber on the Authority Smashing Hour

The ever-fascinating David Graeber made an appearance on the Authority Smashing Hour‘s show. He was supposed to share the bill with Uri Gordon, but Uri had technical difficulties, so it’s a full hour of David talking about two of his AK Press books (Possibilities and Direct Action),  his forthcoming book on Melville House Press, Debt: The First 5,000 Years, and lots more. The ASH site seems to be under renovation, but you can find the interview here (it’s the one that happened on July 15, 2010).
