A
Crime Called Freedom
Writings of Os Cangaceiros Vol. I
Translated by Wolfi Landstreicher
Os
Cangaceiros was a group of delinquents caught up in the spirit
of the French insurrection of 1968 who refused to let that spirit
die. With nothing but contempt for the self-sacrificial ideology
practiced by “specialists in armed struggle”, this
uncontrollable band of social rebels wreaked havoc on the French
state — attacking infrastructures of oppression, supporting
popular revolts, stealing and releasing secret blueprints for
high-tech prisons, raiding the offices of corporate collaborators,
and creating their lives in complete opposition to the world based
on work. This volume, translated by Wolfi Landstreicher, is the
first substantial collection of the writings of Os Cangaceiros
in English.
