Slingshot 2012 Desk Planner

Product Review

Now in its 18th year of publication, the Slingshot Organizer is a must-have for punks, radicals, free thinkers, and the young at heart‹and it's now available in a spiral-bound version! This 176-page desk planner (5.5 inches X 8.5 inches) gives you plenty of space to write down all the events in your life. It also features radical occasions (both historical and contemporary!) for every day of the year, space for your addresses and phone numbers, a contact list of radical groups around the globe, a menstrual calendar, unit conversions, info on police repression, a radical reading list, blank pages for notes, and much more. Covers are laminated with heavy duty glossy plastic for durability. Cover and ink colors vary.

'Making a day planner by hand like this is a throwback--‹a dumb paper book in a smart phone world... The printed contents lack the depth, timeliness and clarity easily accessible with a Google search. Which perhaps is the point. The meaningfulness of our lives is more complex, messy, and difficult than straight, computerized lines. The counter-culture we're a part of is raw, rowdy and on the margins, but it is heading in the right directions: towards a beautiful, pleasurable, sustainable world where people are free.' (from the introduction)
