They had ladders, another banner and a crowd for this drop. Say what you will, but in an era where you can get 30 years for moving a box of zines, this takes guts.

"In the years to come, Marblehead’s regiment — a company of sailors, fishermen, and laborers — would gain renown for smuggling weapons and their attacks on British ships."

"The Marblehead regiment were also among the most racially diverse units in the Continental Army, composed of Black, Indigenous, and mixed-race soldiers serving alongside those rebels of European descent — a motley crew of working people."

Supporting people's liberation needn't require that we endorse nationalism. Why, then, is it still so prevalent within anti-imperialist struggles today? In conversation with Ralf Ruckus, Nandita Sharma exposes the link between "the migrant" and the nation from a perspective that aims to abolish both
