The Curious George Brigade (CGB) is an anarchist collective[1] associated with post-left anarchy[2] and affiliated with CrimethInc.,[3] who published their 2003 book Anarchy in the Age of Dinosaurs.[4]

A CGB member, Elliott "Smokey" Madison, was arrested on September 24, 2009 in Pittsburgh and had his Jackson Heights, Queens home (the anarchist collective known as Tortuga House) raided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Joint Terrorism Task Force on October 1, 2009.[5][6][7][8][9]
