An anarchist soccer tournament? What’s that? And for that matter, why anarchist soccer?

Soccer is widely considered to be the most popular sport in the world, possibly because all you need are a few friends and a ball. This popularity makes soccer and gatherings around soccer a great way to network and socialize outside of our smaller circles. For the past three years, Austin Anarchist Soccer has sent teams to play in the Mondiali Antirazzisti (Anti-Racist World Cup) in Northern Italy and it has inspired us to create something similar on this side of the pond: a mixture of soccer, radical history, music, camping, film, socializing and education. And kid friendly!

Anarchists have been playing soccer ever since the game was invented--maybe it's something about the way play flows around the field, edge to edge, endline to endline. maybe it has something to do with the collectivist thinking where one great player is no match for a team that plays well together. or maybe there is just something about chasing that little round ball around a field or street or vacant lot that is just irresistible.

So, whether you are a seasoned player or a brand new convert, get a group of your friends together, pick a name and register a team at anarchistsoccer.org. It's going to be a lot of fun and hopefully the start of a new gulf coast tradition!

“Muntu” is a word that means both tree and person.

What is happening to the muntu of East Austin amidst the city’s changing cultural and geographical landscape?

This multimedia exhibit offers the entire Austin community a time and space for shared reflection on this and related questions, for conversations of all kinds, in diverse media:

performance, poetry, storytelling, sculpture, music, essays, photography, and good old-fashioned talk.

A community arts project:

We are members of the Austin United Coalition. We are concerned Austin citizens, organizations, businesses, parents, students, and workers who want to move forward from this city’s legacy of racism.

In 2005 the city of Austin joined with concerned citizens to create the African American Quality of Life Initiative. This initiative came about as a result of city government’s response to a number of studies that showed glaring systematic inequities affecting the African American community in Austin.
