Anarchist Portrait

Macio @ The Water Heater

Macio represents AK Press, a worker-owned collective dedicated to the distribution of free press and independent media.  Some of the titles I saw at the AK table included:  Pretty in Punk, Macho Sluts, Vulvamorphia, Black Bloc/White Riot, Geek Mafia, and Granny Made Me an Anarchist.  Quality reads, all, and many more.  At first, Macio was hesitant to have his "anarchist portrait" taken; he's a little camera-shy.  I offered to obscure his face for the sake of anonymity and he decided to roll with it:  "Nah, it's fine.  You can get my face too."  Whether he thought I was a bluebottle or a tourist at first doesn't matter, he rolled with it, so props to him & props to AK.  It's a dangerous world for those who utilize the First Amendment with earnestness and conviction, especially those deemed radical in the eyes of the Military-Industrial Complex.
