AK Press is a worker run book publisher and distributor organized around anarchist principles. All decision-making, including which titles we distribute and what we publish, is made collectively. Our goal is to make available radical books and other materials, titles that are published by independent presses, not the corporate giants, titles with which you can make a positive change in the world.

"The Charles H. Kerr Company is a truly extraordinary example of living history. Here is the publisher of Gene Debs, Clarence Darrow, Mother Jones, Mary Marcy, Jack London, Carl Sandburg and hundreds of other outstanding figures-still at it, still fighting the good fight after a hundred glorious years. The American labor movement has a great heritage, and the Charles H. Kerr Company is a precious part of it. It deserves every support." -Studs Terkel

"What a remarkable history! How can it ever be estimated, the influence of the Kerr Company over all these years? Above all in this era of communication and the rising of the people all over the world, such a bond with expressions and education of the people must be truly celebrated-more than a statue of liberty: the Kerr Company is a true beacon." -Meridel LeSueur

Offers many books on labor history including the IWW.

The present, unequal system we are all forced to live under will continue as long as most working and poor people think it is fair and the best possible, or, if they think it is unjust and inaccessible, cannot see an alternative. It is the job of Anarchists to convince people that there is a practical and better alternative to the present system. It is for this reason that Zabalaza Books exists.
