Josh MacPhee is an artist, curator, and activist
currently living in Troy, NY. His work often revolves
around themes of radical politics, privatization and
public space. His second book "Realizing the
Impossible: Art against Authority" (AK Press,
co-edited with Erik Reuland) was just published. He
also organizes the Celebrate People’s History Poster
Series, and is part of the political art collective
(www.justseeds.org).

Cindy Milstein is co-organizer of the Renewing the
Anarchist Tradition conference and a board member with
the Institute for Anarchist Studies. She's also a

remember how to write, and become a full-time poet.
