We are excited to present a tool for shaping and reflecting on your own revolutionary efforts: this year’s 2026 Study Journal! Following the socialist tradition of making pocket calendars, this journal has all you need to plan a year of thoughtful study and action. This year, our annual offering encourages us to reject despair and hopelessness in the face of ever-increasing oppression—instead, we offer a selection of excerpts from major turning points in the history of struggle, from movements that faced repression with resilience, who turned setbacks into opportunities, and who found themselves strengthened by their just cause. These selections uplift not just the individual revolutionaries, but the collective movements and organizations they emerged from.
Each month also features beautiful illustrations from artists making work for a better world. There are also prompts for reflecting on your past year of action, and ample paper for taking notes while you read and study. We encourage you to use this journal as a tool for shaping and reflecting on your own revolutionary efforts. Join us in planning a year of intentional organizing!
Includes:
- 12 full-color(!) monthly spreads, each with art and an excerpt from a revolutionary moment in history, including writing from Leila Khaled, Ho Chi Minh, Mao Zedong, Claudia Jones, Hugo Chávez, the Landless Workers' Movement, and more!
- 4 prompts to reflect on your past year and actions going forward
- Over 140 grid notebook pages for taking notes (and a guide to using the Cornell Method for effective learning)
- Vegan leather cover, bookmark ribbon, elastic closure for taking it with you on the go!
