How the Rich Stole Our Land, and Why We Should Take it Back

Half of England is owned by just 1% of its population, with the public only having access to about 8% of the countryside. But it's not just in England where the commons were stripped away from us; colonisation and capitalism brought the enclosure of the commons to much of the world. Now, the world is a tapestry of borders, private property, fences and anti-trespass signs. So how do we get our land back? And what would a solarpunk, anarchist world without borders look like?
