A friend here in Seattle scanned and uploaded a couple of texts that have been very influential on BOC. We are reading (re-reading for some) Caliban and the Witch currently and will post up our discussion questions and notes soon.
- Caliban and the Witch (Silvia Federici, 2005) in 5 volume zine-format (.pdf): 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 ; 5 . Also available HERE.
- The Many-Headed Hydra: Sailors, Slaves, Commoners and the Hidden History of the Revolutionary Atlantic(Linebaugh and Rediker, 2000) in 10 volume zine-format (.pdf): 1 ; 2 ; 3 ; 4 ; 5 ; 6 ; 7 ; 8 ; 9 ; 10

I’m currently reading caliban too! Are y’all doing a public reading group? If so I’d love to be able to talk about it with y’all.
Hi hbaley! That’s exciting to hear! I don’t think we’ll be doing a public reading group quite yet, but we’ve talked about it… we will, however, be posting our discussion questions and reflections. What do you think of the text so far? How did you come across it? Please email us at blackorchidcollective@gmail.com if you’d like to talk more about it. Thanks and take care!
