THE PROJECT BEGAN IN FEBRUARY 2021 AND ENDED IN NOVEMBER 2024. THIS BLOG CAN NOW SERVE AS AN INSURGENT RETELLING OF THE STRUGGLE, ITS PROLIFERATION, AND THAT TIME MORE BROADLY. WITH IT, ONE CAN LOCATE THE INSPIRATION AND POWER, THE GRIEF AND LOSS, THE RUPTURES AND THE RECIPES. THEY ARE RECITED BY THOSE IN STRUGGLE IN THE MIDST OF STRUGGLE.

WHILE THE NOBLOGS CAN STILL BE ACCESSED VIA THE WAYBACK MACHINE, WE WISH TO MAKE THE ARCHIVE MORE ACCESSIBLE. BELOW YOU CAN FIND THE FULL ARCHIVE IN ADDITION TO AN ABRIDGED ARCHIVE THAT CAN SERVE AS AN INDEX, FORMATTED AS A PDF AND IMPOSED FOR PRINTING.

WE HOPE THIS ARCHIVE INSPIRES MORE ACTION, MORE REFLECTION, AND MORE TENSION.

WHILE MANY HAVE LAID THIS STRUGGLE TO REST, IT IS THE BELIEF OF WE, THE ARCHIVISTS AND SOME PEOPLE STILL IN STRUGGLE AGAINST COP CITY, THAT THIS STRUGGLE IS ONGOING. WE TAKE OUR PROMISES AND OUR THREATS SERIOUSLY.

WHAT WAS THE PROMISE WE MADE TO EACH OTHER?

WE PROMISED THAT “IF THEY BUILT IT, WE WOULD BURN IT”

THEREFORE, TO HONOR THIS PROMISE, WE PROVIDE THIS ARCHIVE NOT AS A FIXED HISTORY, A MEMORY, OR A PASSING FAD, BUT AS A WORKING HISTORY, A REMINDER, AND A RECOMMITMENT TO THE STOP COP CITY STRUGGLE.

WE WISH TO HONOR OUR FRIEND CAMI (TORT) AND KEEP IT ALIVE WITH ITS NAME, ITS IMPACT UPON US, OUR FIGHTING, AND OUR FIRE. IT IS NEVER DONE UNTIL THERE ARE NO COPS, NO PRISONS, AND NO EMPIRE!

“In this text, we try to identify specific needs, for example for various kinds of communication with each another, and establish some baseline practices around meeting those needs that we can all share to make ourselves harder targets for state repression. […] We can empower ourselves to keep fighting for anarchy and liberation by establishing some shared practices in the Philadelphia anarchist radical space that make us all safer.”
