Counter-Info for the Valley of the Sun
There was a lot going on the 28th. To tell at least a little bit more of the story, here we have assembled three perspectives of the third No Kings march that took place in downtown Phoenix at (scratch that, near) the state capitol. Enjoy.

This site was built to help with local coordination. Whether in Arizona or on the moon or anywhere between. Social media has made finding groups, friends and others tedious. Social and political events are almost impossible to keep track. So, we are updating the old way with a new framework. You will notice that in the coming weeks this project will become downloadable and usable by anyone. This is by design.
Arizona Indymedia is an open platform for anarchist coordination, mutual aid, and organizing across Arizona. Anyone can submit announcements, and events directly to the site — no account required. If you want your posts to publish instantly without moderation, you can register as a Group user, which gives you a saved username, immediate publishing, and the ability to edit your own posts after the fact. Commenters can register for a named account to participate in discussions with a verified username and star badge next to their name. All content is reviewed.
For groups and organizers, the platform makes it straightforward to get the word out. Submit an event with a date, time, and location — it will appear on the public calendar and the front page newswire. Post announcements, reports, or calls to action with images attached. Comments are open on every post. The site is built to be low-barrier and community-controlled — no algorithms, no ads, no corporate intermediaries. Just a direct line to connect.
We are back.
We won’t stop.
We go to anarchy camp.
Anarchy Camps @ Skoolie/Camp/Fest Jan 23 – 31. **camp@anarchyplanet.org** for the coords and chat.
Many of you enjoy the camping/nomadic/traveling circuit already. Some of you are already going to Quartzite gatherings. We invite you to join or meet up with our camp. The intention is nothing more than to cultivate long term hangouts. Meeting old and new friends and such.
We are anarchists of the post left variety. This is not an anarchist book fair. Anarcholiberalism will not be tolerated. It is dirty and dusty out here. You will encounter all sorts of people. This is a large yearly gathering of people who spend most of their days on the road.
If that’s your thing. Get in touch. Let’s keep carrying on.
Ehrenburgh AZ. Find the black flags. Come early come late. Its one hell of a party.
**camp@anarchyplanet.org** for the coords and chat.
Generally though, just look for the black flags. Bring camping gear and anything you might need. Zines and tables are welcome! You will run out quick!
When/Where: 1pm to 6pm, Saturday, November 29th. Wasted Ink Zine Distro on McDowell & 5th Avenue in Phoenix.
The Southwest stands as both a crucible and a casualty of empire, a scorched frontier where settler colonialism, capitalist extraction, and technological “progress” converge in ritual violence against land and against life. From greenwashed data centers to uranium and copper mines polluting Indigenous lands, the region reflects the on going violence empire relies on in order to survive.
This gathering is an invocation a space to trace the lines of power and extraction, and imagine insurgent ecologies beyond the machinery of civilization.
This gathering is a chance to learn from one another across state lines and frontlines to share stories of past and present resistance, build connections across our diverse movements, and explore ways to defend land, water, and community against the forces that seek to divide and exploit us.
Join us on November 29th at Wasted Ink Zine Distro 1pm-6pm
Send workshop proposals or questions to SonoranAnarCon@proton.me
October 18th, 11 AM. AZ State Capitol, on the Senate building lawn, Phoenix AZ
The situation we face is becoming untenable.
We watch in horror as masked agents of the state abduct our neighbors and loved ones off the street, as our already delicate system of rights and liberties is quickly erroded, and as the relentless extraction from our earth for the benefit of the state and capital brings us closer to extinction.
This is a call for all anarchists and anti authoritarians in so-called Arizona to show up and stand in solidarity with our community against the rise of fascism. It is a call to be among those people who have grown tired of liberalism, to welcome them into autonomous movements and ways of acting. It is a call to snap out of paralysis and into action against the order that maintains this brutality, to spread anarchy across the Valley and beyond.
Gather on the lawn in front of the Senate building, look for our black flags and banners. bring materials to share, distro, and have fun!

There was a call for an autonomous action in downtown Phoenix this past Saturday. In contrast to the usual events sponsored by the PSL and other do nothing boring-ass orgs, this one appeared more promising. That evening, my friends and I headed to Roosevelt street to see what the night would be.

On May 7th, 2025, the city of Tempe put its new Vision Zero plan into action, partnering with Mesa-based traffic and surveillance company Verra Mobility to erect 14 new red light cameras across the city. This comes 14 years after Tempe’s first traffic photo enforcement system, forced upon us courtesy of surveillance company Redflex, was deactivated in 2011. They claim that these new cameras, and the ‘enforcement’ that will come with them, are the solution to our dangerous roads. Rather than redesigning for pedestrian and driver safety, expanding public transit, or creating car free zones, city council has predictably seized upon the opportunity to expand the reach of policing and the surveillance state even further into our lives.

WHO THE FUCK
We’re just trying to make money to reopen our community space.
Destroy
In an effort to try and subvert existing structures, the homies in Phoenix have been trying to buy a bus. This bang bus will be used as a way to create, destroy, learn, unlearn, play, anti-work, and explore with one another. Phoenix lacks the kind of meaningful radical distribution that we envision and, rather than whining continually about the declining Cool People scene in the area, we’re just gonna do it ourselves.
