This zine is dedicated to Anna Campbell. Anna was killed by Turkish forces while fighting alongside Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) in the defence of Afrin in March 2018. Anna was a dedicated member of Bristol Anarchist Black Cross and took her commitment to solidarity and mutual aid to her grave.

    Downloading the smaller pdf file got a warning about malware in the file from my computer’s antivirus software. I have to read it online via my browser. And I get a network error trying to access the larger file whether through downloading or reading through the browser – there’s an ssl (https) issue with the server it’s stored on. Thought you ought to know – it needs to be dealt with if you want people to download the material. Hate the idea the state is trying infiltration through malware!
