BOOK:
In the midst of a moment defined by international crises, community
devastation, increasing injustice, and ruptures in the fabric of everyday
life,
winds of resistance continue to emerge and to circulate.

Uses of a Whirlwind is more than just a snapshot of current activity,
organizing, ideas, and questions circulating among today’s radicals. It’s an
opportunity for organizers, theorists, strategists, and movement elders to
share and connect, to speak honestly of the challenges before us, to
articulate new demands and possibilities in the ongoing war against state and

capital.

Team Colors Collective invites voices from today’s myriad currents, and in
so doing generates common understandings of radical community organizing,
movement building, and the impetus and inspiration toward making a
revolution possible
The essays collected here come from very different places—farms, forests,
bookstores, streets and street corners, homes, corporate chains. Their
authors organize in very different ways—art and media, mapping and research,
theory and discussion, popular education, and road blockades. Yet they are
all
moved by the same desire: to create new worlds and new ways of being, and
demanding nothing less. We are in the middle of a whirlwind of struggle and
opportunities for fundamental change abound; it’s just a question of how
we use them.
