glass and tycko, 2023, not one tree

written 20240217.

long account of the stop cop city protests in atlanta. i found it really worthwhile to read this in conjunction with johanna isaacson’s the bull and the ballerina, which discusses failure as a productive component of diy and anarchist movements. glass provides in this context a first-hand description of the protesters’ motivations, of asymmetrical police brutality, and of the formation of counter-narratives by the city and police to depict the protesters as domestic terrorists.
