The Meaning of Anarchism, via twelve libertarians, with Iain McKay (Part Two)

Five Leaves Bookshop

Starts at 07:00 pm on Monday 4th February 2019
Ends at 08:30 pm

Anarchism is a much misunderstood and much misrepresented theory. Rejecting the chaos of capitalism and statism, it seeks to create the order of libertarian socialism, a free society of free associates. To discover more, please join Iain McKay (author of An Anarchist FAQ) for an exploration of libertarian ideas by means of six male and six female anarchist thinkers and activists.

Over two nights, the lives and ideas of the founding fathers and mothers of anarchism – including Michael Bakunin, Peter Kropotkin, Louise Michel and Emma Goldman – will be discussed and their continuing relevance highlighted.

This event/class/group continues from 28th January We would encourage you to attend both sessions!

Week two: Founding Mothers, 1840 to 1940; André Léo; Louise Michel; Lucy Parsons; Emma Goldman; Voltairine de Cleyre; Marie-Louis Berneri
£3.00 on the door, including refreshments.

Let us know you are coming on events@fiveleaves.co.uk
