Jerome, how can we contact you by mail? Thank you, @15MayRevolution
Hi, thanks for your message. I just sent you an email to the address you mentioned when posting this comment. Please let me know if you received it. All the best, Jerome
Hi Jeremy
I just read your piece on the end of history which I really enjoyed. I love the theme you noted from Subcommandante Marcos, about the circular nature of political struggle. This is something I tried to get at in my novel about post-1994 South Africa, Freedom Never Rests, in which I attempt to interrogate (in the context of hopefully an interesting plot) not only the neoliberal model but the forms of organization that emerge in response to a “democratic dispensation.” Anyway, thanks for pulling all these threads together. In solidarity, James Kilgore
Wonderful James, thanks for the kind words! Your novel sounds very interesting. Are you from South Africa?
Hi, Jerôme.

Hello, Jérôme.
I would like to ask you a few questions, but I am not sure about how could I get your e-mail adress around here; it would be nice if you told me how to obtain it.
Thanks.

Hello Vladimir, thanks for your message. My email address is jerome(at)roarmag(dot)org. I’ll be on a holiday for a few days so it might take some time before I get back to you. All the best, Jerome
Hello, Jerôme,
I came across your site while looking for photos of the Madrid protests. I edit http://www.bloombergvillenow.org, the website of anti-austerity encampment in Lower Manhattan, across from City Hall and just north of Wall Street. We’ve been sleeping out and holding rallies and other actions since June 14 to protest drastic cuts to NYC services and budget. You can read more about it on the blog. Thought you’d like to know about it.

That’s great Harry, thanks so much for passing this on! I will definitely keep an eye on your website. Wishing you all the best in New York, very happy to see the good work you’re doing over there. One world, one struggle!
You’re the best!
Thanks lieve zus
Hey dear son!

I’m so proud of you with your first world-wide TV appearance! It was way too short but you will get many more chances.
See you soon,
Emanuel I
Thanks dear dad! And thanks also for all the help in building this website, it’s a bit part of it
See you on Thursday! X
Hi Jerome,
I am writing to ask if I can please include your image of the globe hands on the links page of my website? I am a therapist in the North East of England working to improve the quality of life and self-esteem of adults, children and young people.
I have attributed the image to Pedro Noel as it is attached to his Dec 2 article and and included a link to Roarmag.org. I will immediately remove the image if this is not okay? I could not find contact information for Pedro.
I look forward to hearing from you.
With kind, warm wishes,
Dawnie
Hi Dawnie, we do not own copyright on the picture, we just took it from the vast commons of the internet
Thanks for asking though! All the best!
Hi Jerome,
Great website! I am interested in using one of your articles – would you kindly advise if they are your pictures, if there is a copyright etc.
Kind regards
Emma
