Arbetaren Interview in Stockholm

Vendela Engström interviewed me on behalf of Arbetaren (The Worker) in Stockholm.

Portrait by Vendela Engström

Vendela writes: “William C Anderson is in Sweden to talk about his new book, which is about abolition and black anarchism, but also about the threat from increasing fascist tendencies worldwide and the resistance that is required and will be required in the future. The abolitionist movement has historically been linked to people who fought against slavery and for the abolition of slavery. Today, the term abolitionism is used much more broadly. It can be about anything from the abolition of the police, prisons and military, to the abolition of the state itself, in order to find other, sustainable alternatives that are not based on oppression and harmful structures.” Read the full interview here.
