AK Press


 
 

AK Press is a collectively owned and operated independent publisher and book distributor that specialises in radical and anarchist literature. It operates online through http://www.akpress.org and with its bookmobile that travels around the country (to protests, activist conferences, etc; mostly by request). Its books - on topics including anarchism, globalization, and animal rights, among others - are often difficult to find through mainstream outlets. Works published by AK Press include reprints of radical classics in addition to original works (see list below).

It also sells clothing, buttons, stickers, and various "anarchist props" like an upside down map of the world and the red and black flag of anarcho-syndicalism. AK Press has released spoken word albums by distinguished radicals such as Noam Chomsky, Howard Zinn, Jello Biafra, Arundhati Roy and Mumia Abu Jamal and music by artists including David Rovics and Utah Phillips.
