Crass (band)
Crass was an English art collective and punk rock band formed in Epping, Essex in 1977 who promoted anarchism as a political ideology, a lifestyle, and a resistance movement. Crass popularized the anarcho-punk movement of the punk subculture, advocating direct action, animal rights, feminism, anti-fascism, and environmentalism. The band employed and advocated a DIY ethic in its albums, sound collages, leaflets, and films. Crass spray-painted stencilled graffiti messages in the London Underground, London subway system and on advertising-billboards, coordinated Squatting, squats and organized political action. The band expressed its ideals by dressing in black, military-surplus-style clothing and using a stage backdrop amalgamating icons of perceived authority such as the Christian cross, the swastika, the Union Jack, and the ouroboros. The band was critical of the punk subculture and youth culture in general; nevertheless, the anarchist ideas that they promoted have maintained ...

Gee Vaucher
Gee Vaucher (born Carole Vaucher in 1945 in Dagenham, Essex, England) is a visual artist primarily associated with the anarcho-punk band Crass. Biography Vaucher met her long-lasting creative partner Penny Rimbaud in the early 1960s when both were attending the South-East Essex Technical College and School of Art. The name 'Gee' derives from 'Grout', Rimbaud having responded to something Vaucher was complaining about with 'stop grouting' (rather than 'stop grousing'); "I said, 'you mean grousing'. Anyway, the Grout name stuck and everyone started calling me Grout, and then it gradually got shortened to Gee." In 1967, inspired by the film '' Inn of the Sixth Happiness'', they set up the anarchist/ pacifist open house Dial House in Essex, UK, which has now become firmly established as a 'centre for radical creativity'. In 2016, Vaucher was awarded an honorary doctorate from the University of Essex. Vaucher is vegetarian. Works Her work with anarcho-punk band Crass w ...

September 11th Attacks
The September 11 attacks, also known as 9/11, were four coordinated Islamist terrorist suicide attacks by al-Qaeda against the United States in 2001. Nineteen terrorists hijacked four commercial airliners, crashing the first two into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City and the third into the Pentagon (headquarters of the U.S. Department of Defense) in Arlington County, Virginia.
