Mike Davis was born 80 years ago today.
"Davisβs drive was always towards action, struggle, and solidarity β in brief, the politics of continual and transformative resistance, of βradical hope.β He lit the torch; itβs time for us, now, to carry it on."
For what would have been Mike Davis's 80th birthday today, we've put the Essential Mike Davis collection on sale through the weekend.
"We must fight like the Red Army in the rubble of Stalingrad. Fight with hope, fight without hope, but fight absolutely."

International Women's Day is a day of protest and collective action.
'Woman's Day' was first recognized in the US in 1910 following the 13 week long strike of 20,000 female garment workers.
Four years later on this day in Russia, bread riots led by women fed directly into the 1917 revolution.
On International Women's Day, broaden your feminist horizons with reading that is anticapitalist, abolitionist, antiracist, as well as full of rage and defiance.
