On Anarchism — An Indigenous Queer Perspective
https://mafwdistro.noblogs.org/files/2022/11/on_anarchism_aya.pdf

Long form text: (I’ll have a better link soon) #anarchism #queer #indigenous #directaction #mutualaid #blackbloc
On anarchism an indigenous queer perspective written by aya
While this writing is just from the per- spective of a single Queer Indigenous anarchist, and by no means attempting to be an authority on anarchy (How would one do that?) I hope that this can bridge the gap between the struggle of indige- nous, Black, and POC peoples, and the white anarchist. I may focus on my queer indigenous struggle as that is who I am, but our struggle is not that far (if not the same) from my Black and other POC ac- complices. Written by: AYA Formatted by: MAFW DISTRO
On Black Bloc, Horizontal Structures, and White Supremacy Culture: The bloc is known for its horizontal mobility, protec- tion of anarchist and antifascist identity, and the tool of choice for action. While this highlights the tasty and desirable aspects of the well-used instrument, it leaves out some of the complexities faced by a queer BIPOC, anarchist. The first is an opportunity for "social leaders" to gain traction, primarily by doing risky things that excite folks, but also can put others (primarily BIPOC folks) in danger. While a person taking action in and of itself is not wrong, and shouldn't be policed, we often find that white folks take up this space and informal role, their whiteness acting as a barrier from the extreme repression of the State. This is not to say, Black, In- digenous, or POC individuals are not taking action into their own hands (for we very much are), it is more saying the folks who gain "Respect" in the Bloc community are often white. This boils down to the upholding of white supremacy culture in anarchist movement spaces. As a group that claims to be an- ti-authority, there is a lot to be desired for the destruc- tion of "Social Hierarchy" primarily focused on White Supremacy, Misogyny, Trans-misogyny, and Patriar- chal power. The second complexity is navigating these informal yet very present social hierarchies while organizing in our bloc spaces. From how we speak to how we are perceived in the space, all of this factors into the "le- gitim
politics" reimagined in anarchist spaces. To be truly Liberated means to first fully deconstruct the oppres- sive thinking and organizing in our spaces. Third, the segregation of the Bloc. This may step on toes, but it must be said. The bloc can be cliquey. This tendency is a tool for white supremacy to flourish. In my personal experience Black, Indigenous, and POC anarchists get separated from the white anarchists not only in goals, but in disputes, actions, and the sharing of resources. We can see fighting between affinities, of predominately white folks, against predominate- ly BIPOC folks. This is how we are doomed to fail. Without breaking these internal hierarchies we cannot form a truly liberated world. We should not be recre- ating the same systems of oppression with an anarchy brand. With all this being said, one comes to wonder, how does a movement that has not deconstructed social hierarchies, create a "Horizontal structure"? I would argue you can not. Until these systems of oppression are crushed in our movement spaces we cannot see the horizontal structure of liberation come through. In its current state, the bloc has not broken through the barrier to become a genuinely liberating space. So what steps can be taken? The first and foremost is for white folks to take a step back. Realized the space you take up and the expectations you have of the BIPOC folks in your community. Do you expect us to educate you on our struggle and how you are involved in upholding it?
