Oceania 2084 – roleplaying in a dystopian setting

Oceania 2084 – roleplaying in a dystopian setting

People with an antiauthoritarian mindset do often enjoy games. Besides boardgames, their interest have also been on roleplaying games (RPGs), a kind of cooperative storytelling game at a table based on a concrete rule system. Johan Eriksson, an anarchist game designer has recently published such an RPG called “Oceania 2084“, based on George Orwell’s novel “1984”. We talked to him during his run of a Kickstarter campaign for a printed version of the game. Deadline is 10 May 2024. Enjoy and spread the info!

[Extra] TFSR talking to Maxida Märak and Gabriel Kuhn about the book “Liberating Sápmi”

We are now republishing an interview by The Final Straw Radio (TFSR) with Maxida Märak, a Sami activist and hip hop singer, and Gabriel Kuhn, an anarchist activist, translator and author, about Kuhn’s book “Liberating Sápmi: Indigenous Resistance in Europe’s Far North“. The book contains a political history of the Sámi people, whose traditional lands extend along the north most regions of so-called Sweden, Norway, Finland, and parts of Russia, as well as interviews conduced with over a dozen Sámi artists and activists. This interview was published originally in June 2020.
