Openreadery is a free, open-access library of radical, anarchist, anti-fascist, and political texts. Knowledge has always been a tool of power · we're giving it back.
We archive texts that are at risk of being taken down, deplatformed, or simply forgotten. Anarchist theory, anti-fascist history, labour movement documents, feminist and queer liberation writing, and more. If it threatens the powerful, it belongs here.
Against fascism. Against capitalism. Against all forms of oppression.
Over 323,932 texts indexed across 107 source collections. 53,111 with full text readable directly in your browser · no download, no account needed.
