We are announcing Boston’s Second Annual Anarchist Bookfair (November 9-11, 2012). Hosted at Simmons College by the rad folks of the Progressive Librarians Guild, this bookfair will contain amazing organizations and publishers, workshops, and a return of our Anarchist Film Festival. |

The last year has seen rapid growth of Anarchism around the world, aided by the horizontalism of the Occupy movement (and Indignados) and the militancy of populations fighting against austerity. Anarchists have played important roles in student struggles in Chile, Quebec, and Britain, while being the chief bogeyman for state repression world-wide.
In the spirit of revolution and police-impaling unicorns, we are announcing Boston’s Second Annual Anarchist Bookfair (November 9-11, 2012). Hosted at Simmons College by the rad folks of the Progressive Librarians Guild, this bookfair will contain amazing organizations and publishers, workshops, and a return of our Anarchist Film Festival.
Boston’s Anarchist scene is both fabulous and fierce. The Mayor and police blame us for everything, (see: http://boston.indymedia.org/feature/display/213874), we have some pretty epic anarchist displays (http://tastemyhourse.tumblr.com/post/24855355189/fuckyeahanarchistbanner), and we roll with some pretty wild organizations.
If that’s not enough to entice you, check out our materials and participate:
Workshop Submissions (Cut off date is September 10): https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dERvbkttUTkyTTJxSGp
