We Print Revolution
Across centuries and social movements, print has been used to mobilize, coordinate, and challenge power structures. We Print Revolution is the continuation of this lineage: a direct answer to a world dominated by surveillance and centralized control.
We‘re an independent initiative born out of our refusal to stand idly by. When taking action feels like a drop in the ocean, we offer tools to create ripple effects in the collective.
Based in Catalonia‘s Barcelona, we’re building autonomous infrastructure to support real action on the ground. In order to bypass border friction and get materials directly into the hands of people in the US, our print distribution is operated by a trusted node in New York City.
Resistance is communal, but it doesn't look the same for everyone. Taking the streets and being visible is essential, and so is the tactical distribution of knowledge and ideas. For those who cannot join the frontlines, printing offers a high-impact alternative. Start by printing zines and pamphlets. Distribute them in your neighborhood. Paste a batch of posters with a friend—every print keeps resistance alive.
We Print Revolution was created by grassroots organizers with backgrounds in political science and communication studies, driven by the on-the-ground work of pasting posters to disrupt the narrative. We know what it feels like to stand in a dark street with glue on our fingers, watching for headlights. We built this press to offer affordable batch prints for activists, organizations and individual co-conspirators.
The archive is a participatory commons with posters, stickers, zines, tactics, practical guides, print techniques and other resistance materials. Our vision is a self-governing, decentralized network where radical resources belong to everyone. No gatekeeping, just open-source resistance: shared access to tools, knowledge, and resources without relying on a singular, potentially compromised platform or authority.
