Zines: Bound to Struggle: Where Kink and Radical Politics Meet
A lucid collection of essays
from people who are both politically involved in dismantling the
power structure and erotically inclined towards power play in the
bedroom (or the woods, or the abandoned house). How does that work?
Read this excellent collection of beautiful essays and poems and
find out more. Bound to Struggle blends the personal and political
deftly, drawing upon contradiction and the undefined realities of
those on the political and sexual fringes as a source of strength
and passion.
"Playing dress-up with the trappings of a violent world is a form of transgression,
too, a game that reveals the fragility of the existing order by dragging secret,
uncomfortable desires into the light. I know what I'm doing when I play with
savagery, helplessness, suffering, possession, as if they were tools in the sandbox.
SM is a rewrite of the power-infested reality we've been handed..." -Nemo Brinker, Bound to Struggle Vol. 1
