Next weekend Firestorm will be hosting author David Vaina for an in-person conversation with local Appalachian organizers about his new book "On-Ramps to a New Civil Society: Mutual Aid at the Edges of the Anthropocene," an autonomist reimagining of labor, value, mutual aid, and revolution. They'll discuss the present moment of institutional decline, where a political void has emerged in addressing our collective needs, and how mutual aid can contribute to the development of a radically new society.

Learn more and find copies of "On-Ramps to a New Civil Society" at firestorm.coop/events/3331-mut.

'FEMA has denied North Carolina’s request to continue matching 100% of the state’s spending on Hurricane Helene recovery.

In a letter to Gov. Josh Stein on Friday, acting FEMA administrator Cameron Hamilton wrote that the agency had determined the full cost share was “not warranted.”'

@nazokiyoubinbou #HurricaneHelene devastates southeastern US, millions without power

Sept 29, 2024

"Damage estimates ranged from $15 billion to more than $100 billion, insurers and forecasters said over the weekend.

"The National Weather Service said conditions would “continue to improve Sunday” as it warned of possible “long-duration power outages”.

"Helene slammed into Florida on Thursday as a Category 4 hurricane and surged north, gradually weakening but leaving a trail of destruction: uprooted trees, downed power lines and homes damaged by mudslides.

"The Federal Emergency Management Administration (#FEMA) said on Saturday it granted emergency declarations in six states – #Alabama, #Florida, #Georgia, #SouthCarolina, #NorthCarolina and #Tennessee – 'to assist these states with preparation and response efforts in the immediate aftermath of the storm'."
