Another Irregular Yet Charming Update


*Check out our re-designed website homepage at http://www.ironrail.org

*We have the new 2010 Slingshot Organizers.
They come in small and large, for $6 and $10 respectively. We have lots of colors available. These make great gifts for x-mas, birthdays, etc...

*We got in the new Rolling Thunder magazines, issue #8, which includes looks at anarchism in Chile and San Fransisco, as well as in-depth articles on insurrectionary anarchism and perpetrator accountability, along with the usual beautiful photos and graphics that accompany every issue.
Rolling Thunder #7 was sold out, but we got a few more copies in if you missed it. The issue focuses on the greek anarchist rebellion last December.
They are $5.

*We have Iron Rail and other radical pins for $1.00 now.

As always, the Iron Rail is full of awesome radical books, zines, music, and art. We want to highlight that we have Palestinian kuffiyehs from Palestine available for sale for $12.00.

We also want to highlight that we have New Orleans native Robert King's book "From The Bottom Of The Heap" for below cover price:
"In 1970, a jury convicted Robert Hillary King of a crime he did not commit and sentenced him to 35 years in prison. He became a member of the Black Panther Party while in Angola State Penitentiary, successfully organizing prisoners to improve conditions. In return, prison authorities beat him, starved him, and gave him life without parole after framing him for a second crime. He was thrown into solitary confinement, where he remained in a six by nine foot cell for 29 years as one of the Angola 3. In 2001, the state grudgingly acknowledged his innocence and set him free. This is his story."

Another book worthy of highlighting on our shelves is "The Deacons for Defense: Armed Resistance and the Civil Rights Movement" about black folks in rural Louisiana (mainly on the Northshore of the lake in the Florida Parishes) and Mississippi who decided they needed to defend themselves from Klan violence long before the Black Panthers made armed resistance famous. This is an inspiring story, part of Louisiana people's history, and an incredible yet little-known chapter in the struggle for racial equality. Available now at the Iron Rail for below
cover price.

Please get involved and help out the Iron Rail!
