Bristol Anarchist Bookfair - news update
Bookfair vol | 11.08.2008 16:01 | Globalisation | Social Struggles | Workers' Movements | World
With over a month to go until Bristol’s Anarchist Bookfair, we are already fully booked up with stalls & workshops.
As the current crisis of capital deepens and yet another war (Georgia/Russia) breaks out over land and energy resources, we need more than ever a serious alternative to the chaos of the present world order and the suffering it inflicts upon us. And we need to take the time to properly sit down & chat about it – as equals.
Fly the flag with pride!
We also have 22 workshops throughout the day. As well as discussing anarchist ideas and practice, workshops will also cover the economy, psychology, environment, arms trade, media and feminism. We hope to have a live webcast with George Caffentzis, the US activist & writer; and the Trapese Collective will discuss their recent pamphlet on Transition Towns. Outside we have skillsharing fun & games, an empowering bike workshop, a regeneration tour, and even a little acoustic music. If that whets your appetite then check out the all day vegan café.
You can see a full list of stalls and workshops here:

Finally, to round off the day, we hope to have two separate socials/fundraisers in the evening, details will follow, as will a full programme giving workshop times.
