Best Action in the Face of Deplorable State Failure

Austin Mutual Aid

Mutual aid is a timeless concept, but in a year of constant crisis and state abandonment, the need for community care grows more glaring. When the pandemic began, Bobby Cooper and his fellow anarchist volunteers began delivering home-cooked meals, masks, tents, and other essentials to houseless people, and more recently raised funds to secure them hotel rooms when the city froze. What have our elected leaders done, besides flee to Mexico and ignore CDC guidelines? All the more reason to get to know your neighbors.
