Igniting a Revolution: Voices in Defense of the Earth
(edited by Steven Best and Anthony Nocella, 2004)
This book provides a working model of alliance politics and total liberation. The activists in these pages represent diverse people — animal liberationists, earth liberationists, political prisoners, academics, feminists, black liberationists, native americans, primativists — all engaged in one aspect of the same social struggle. None of us can win this war alone. The essence of alliance politics and total liberation is captured in this quote from the following essay: “A flank of militant groups and positions can drive a battering ram into the structures of power and domination and open a door to a new future.”

Revolutionary Ecology (Biocentrism & Deep Ecology)
by Judi Bari
“Starting from the very reasonable, but unfortunately revolutionary concept that social practices which threaten the continuation of life on Earth must be changed, we need a theory of revolutionary ecology that will encompass social and biological issues, class struggle, and a recognition of the role of global corporate capitalism in the oppression of peoples and the destruction of nature.” -Judy Bari

Do or Die: Voices from the Ecological Resistance
This site is an archive of Do or Die magazine. Do or Die was an occasional journal published in the UK from 1992-2003, crammed with reports and analysis from the world-wide ecological frontlines. The voices collected here are not those of outsiders, journalists or academics, but of those involved in the struggles themselves. In these times of concrete alienation these voices shine hope from movements that take action to defend nature, create revolution and re-wild humanity.
