ANARCHIST CALISTHENICS: The Theory That Will Change Your Life [Intro to Black Anarchism]
In this episode of INTRO TO. BLACK ANARCHISM, we’re breaking down the idea of “anarchist calisthenics”—a theory about practicing small acts of disobedience to build the muscles for bigger resistance. Inspired by James C. Scott’s Two Cheers for Anarchism, we’ll explore how poor and marginalized people have long used quiet acts of defiance to survive capitalism and exploitation. From everyday rule-breaking to collective resistance, these small moments add up to something bigger.
