The show is a recording of the second part of a panel at a conference that took place at Warren Wilson college outside of Asheville in 2010.
This audio can be found online at http://archive.org/details/NcRising2RepressionCounter-repressionPart2
Repression and Counter-Repression brought together people from all over who had recently been coping with repression to discuss its current framework. Panelists spoke from a variety of perspectives from within "ecological," "animal liberation," and "anti-capitalist" struggles. The contributions of each will help broaden our understandings of how repression acts against revolutionary projects and how a practice of revolutionary solidarity can reduce some of the effects of repression and help us to construct an environment of counter-repression.
* What is the framework of repression under which we are operating?
* What is "Revolutionary Solidarity"? What is its function? What are its means?
* How, in such a paralyzing condition of surveillance and political condition of weakness, can we move towards a practice of revolutionary solidarity?
panelists included:
Hugh, who just survived a long legal battle over I-69-related charges;
Katherine, of the Friends and Family Of Daniel McGowan;
Neil, a member of Internationalist Prison Books Collective and a supporter of the Asheville 11, defendants recently accused of 112 misdemeanors and 34 felonies;
Talia, a survivor of Minnehaha Free State repression, member of the Coldsnap Legal collective, worker for the NLG, and member of the Conspiracy Tour.
This panel was moderated by an editor of Rolling Thunder magazine.

BSTF 936 - #333--Halfway to HELL, or The MARKDOWN of the BEAST!
Oct. 21, 2012, 9:36 a.m.
YES! It again sees the moonlight--BSTF #333--Halfway to HELL, or The MARKDOWN of the BEAST! Slouching toward Megiddo, this behemoth of a show rises from the ocean to thrill you with a mind-slashing array of crazy preachers and apocalyptic jackoff fantasies! The Devil is your DeeJay as you soak in the Lake of fire alongside lost lunatics and misinformed millennialists! The SHINING STAR of tonight's show, however, is not Lucifer--rather, it HAS to be Mary Katherine Baxter, whose astonishing 1976 screed "A Divine Revelation of Hell" (or "Hay- ull" as her flat, midwestern twang) will make you boggle along with her fractured travelogue! On several consecutive nights, this hillbilly housewife/Dante was led by Jesus ("He had a Jewish look, and a Jewish hay-ercut," she intones) through a dreamscape of horrors to the very bowels of Hell--and HALLEFUCKINLUJAH, but she committed her hallucinatory experience to audiotape!
Trust me. Once you get to the "dirty slinkies," you'll know there's no turning back.

We live in a world of illusion. Ever since we were set in front of the television to rot in our crap filled diapers, we have been sold a bill of goods on nearly everything we take for granted, particularly with regards to the very nature of money itself. Having been propagandized to believe that money has value, we come to find that such is not the case with the specific currency we have become mentally dependent on for our entire way of life. Most of our waking hours are spent chasing after it, attempting to accumulate more of it, performing tasks we would otherwise prefer to not do, but instead tolerate because we have to somehow âpay the bills.â
