We publish articles, books and other merch on the intersection between anarchism and spitiruality.
Holding in our hands the threads of anarchist, Marxist, anti-colonialist, druidic, feminist, occult, environmentalist, and esoteric thought, we began a dance around a center constantly plaiting, constantly weaving a fierce celebration of all that makes the world beautiful, all that we refuse to let be taken from us.

RECLAIMING OURSELVES
In this time of economic, social, and environmental collapse, we cannot rely on governments or leaders to guide us through the chaos. Yet this is no reason for despair, because these crises open old doors we thought rusted shut and old paths we thought too overgrown to ever find again.
Reclaiming Ourselves is a guide to those paths and a key to those doors.
With her clear and welcoming writing, Emma Kathryn presents an accessible and insightful map to rediscovering what we have always been capable of: reclaiming our relationship to ourselves, to our bodies, to the land around us, to healing, to food, to community, and to spirituality. Easily adaptable for any circumstance, her practical advice and tips on becoming more secure in this difficult world and her discussions of the struggles many of us face in reconnecting to ourselves feel like the words of a kind friend reminding us we will be okay.
Reclaiming Ourselves, by Emma Kathryn, is an ideal book for everyone seeking strength and connection to not only survive but thrive and be a light for others in these dark times.

SOLIDARITY NETWORKS & EMERGENCY SURVIVAL
A PRACTICAL GUIDE FOR SURVIVING THE COLLAPSE OF EMPIRE WITH OTHERS
54 pages, 4in x 6in, perfect bound, matte cover
Gods&Radicals Press is pleased to offer two of our most-viewed practical essays, updated and expanded in print form.
Solidarity Networks (viewed over 20,000 times online) presents a concrete guide for organizing with others for mutual solidarity and safety. What Solidarity Networks are, what they are not, and step-by-step instructions on how to form one with your friends are all explained in clear language.
Emergency Survival (read over 15,000 times online) is an expanded and updated guide written by an emergency service planner and instructor with 15 years experience, lays out in plain language the basic skills needed for preparing for crisis situations.
Unlike many guides for survival, however, both essays together focus not on individualism but on mutual aid and solidarity. Rather than the loner apocalyptic fantasies mass media feeds us, these comprise “A Practical Guide For Surviving The Collapse of Empire With Others.”
A BEAUTIFUL RESISTANCE 5: AFTER EMPIRE
Release Date: 15 October, 2020.
150 pages, 8.5 x 11, full color, perfect bound, matte cover, with full-color images.
A Beautiful Resistance: After Empire explores the truths we are all beginning to understand, the whispers on the plague winds, the portents in the polluted sky, the omens in the failing harvests and the chthonic call in the rising seas. Everywhere we look we see it: Empire is ending.
But no Empire ends politely nor quietly, nor do the torturous forms of their control merely disappear with them. Centuries of oppression, of discipline, of the shaping of our thoughts and dreams will not merely go away when the Capitols and Capital no longer exert their mythic power over our lives.
A Beautiful Resistance: After Empire is a ritual work of re-imagining, a revel and a parade back into the wilds of our own dreaming, our own symbols, our own forms of connection and community decoupled and divorced from what Empire has made of us. Features the literary, poetic, fictive, and graphic work of 27 artists and writers, including CHRISTOPHER SCOTT THOMPSON · MIRNA WABI-SABI · EMMA KATHRYN ·PETER GREY · RUNE KJÆR RASMUSSEN · TWM GWYNNE · ULRICH GEHMANN · V. CROWE · SHANE BURLEY · KATHLEEN YEARWOOD · FRANK SEEBURGER · TAHLIA PALMER · SONALI ROY · PETER MARK ADAMS · FINNCHUILL · JANE SKJOLDLI · MADDY HAG · ALLYSON SHAW · LIA VÉ · MASON PARKER · AYLING ZULEMA DOMINGUEZ · LAURA WELSMAN · SLIPPERY ELM · LAURIE RAE DIETRICH · MEL HILL · BEA XU ·Z. SAGER · RHYD WILDERMUTH · DOMINIK RINNHOFER.
PAGAN ANARCHISM
Our first offering by poet, anarchist, and Pagan Christopher Scott Thompson, Pagan Anarchism explores the history of anti-authoritarian and anti-capitalist movements and discovers alongside them a fierce Pagan rebellion against the State.
Witchpunks, rebels, magicians, and revolutionaries will find this book both a compelling history and an inspiring manifesto.
A PAGAN ANTI-CAPITALIST PRIMER
40 pages, perfect-bound, matte cover.
Gods&Radicals was started after Alley Valkyrie & Rhyd Wildermuth gave a presentation about Capitalism and Paganism at a conference. The room was packed, people spilled outside, and both Alley and Rhyd found themselves sitting on a counter ledge so more people could fit.
A Pagan Anti-Capitalist Primer is the zine they handed out, and Gods&Radicals now offers an expanded, professionally-printed version.
OF MONSTERS AND MISO
Release date 15 September, 2019. A bilingual book of delicious miso sauce recipes?
Or a gallery of monsters wielding political slogans?
Is it in English?
Ou en français?
WHY NOT BOTH????
“The old world is dying, a new world struggles to be born. This is the time of monsters…”
