Cronaca Sovversiva

Cronaca Sovversiva (Subversive Chronicle) was an Italian-language, United States–based anarchist newspaper associated with Luigi Galleani from 1903 to 1920.

[1] Prior to founding Cronaca Sovversiva, Luigi Galleani became involved in anarcho-communist activism beginning in the 1880s and showed a predilection for speaking and writing convincingly on the topic.

After being wounded during the 1902 Paterson silk strike and charged with incitement to riot, he first escaped to Canada before settling in Barre, Vermont, under an assumed name among Italian quarriers.

[2] The newspaper was banned from Italy in October 1915,[3] and from the United States Mail in June 1917.

He continued to print the newspaper and distribute it cross-country via Railway Express and a network of supporters who delivered it locally.
