THIS PAGE IS CURRENTLY UNDER CONSTRUCTION / REORGANIZATION

You’ll find on this page LINKS AND RESOURCES (and often already compiled guides of further resources) to assist anyone and everyone dealing with immediate and ongoing resistance work, political, social justice and human rights issues. There are also TOOLS and SYLLABI below. We aim to keep these resources easily accessible, clear, and readily available and shareable. When we find compiled resources we often eliminate others to reduce redundancy and confusion. All links and tools below have been reviewed for accuracy and continued access in the summer of 2022.

This is not an exhaustive list, and there are a number of categories below that we are actively in the process of researching and building resource guides around — as you may know, websites aren’t always maintained and some of our resources have gone dark and been removed.  Please email us at operator@theoperatingsystem.org with links, resources, or any suggestions for this guide, or if you’d like to volunteer to help update and maintain it.

USING THIS PAGE / NAVIGATING THE ACCORDIONS BELOW: Each of the below categories is followed by media types under which you will resources related to that topic area – click on any of the PLUS (+) symbols to expand the resources found there (ie: SYLLABI, READING LISTS, etc). 

PLEASE NOTE: the information available here is largely US based and focused, as the OS is based in Lenapehoking / Brooklyn, though our community extends beyond this country’s imaginary borders. What we’ve gathered here is an attempt to have extensive tools for use without attempting to house “everything” for all global citizens. If there is an area you’d particularly like to see covered that is not included, we welcome your input!

NOTE: this archive includes previous areas of resource collection that are not necessarily evergreen / are no longer actively useful in relationship to past events and crises but may be useful for research and/or to follow up on ongoing practices and efforts following activist work in these locations or around these topics.
