DESCRIPTION:What is Anarchism?\n\nDate & Time: Wednesday, 2 April 2014 – 6:30pm-8pm 
 (at Old Capitol Books)\n\nWhat do people mean when they say 
 “Anarchism”? Between the international Occupy movement, and questions 
 surrounding capitalism, Anarchism has been a topic that has been much in 
 the media of 2013. This seminar will introduce you to the philosophies of 
 Anarchism through key readings, and then use these philosophies to discuss 
 current events. The purpose of these seminars is not an attempt to 
 “convert” anyone to a particular way of thinking, but to provide them 
 with a wider range of experiences that may help them to see the world in a 
 different way.\n\nWe suggest that you read a few of the articles below, 
 which have been some of the most influential on the subject, but you can 
 read as many or as few as you'd like. Copies of all the articles below can 
 be found on our webpage, or by visiting Old Capitol Books, 559 Tyler 
 Street, Monterey.\n\nSuggested reading for the session:\n1.) Howard Zinn 
 – “Anarchism”.\n2.) Emma Goldman - “Anarchism: what it really 
 stands for”\n3.) Noam Chomsky - “On Anarchism”\n4.) Encyclopedia 
 Brtiannica, 1905 - “Anarchism”.\n5.) L. Susan Brown – “Does Work 
 Really Work?”, Kick it Over, #35.\n\nAfter you get a chance to do some of 
 the background reading listed above, we'd ask you to start reading your 
 local papers, and thinking about how the ideas of anarchism might relate to 
 current events. Some questions to think about might be: How are power and 
 systems of oppression relevant in this story or article?; How are religious 
 and ethnic minorities represented in this article? And how does this relate 
 to power and government?; How does this article talk about the police or 
 prisons?; How are prisons used to oppress one group more than another?; How 
 does power and hierarchy operate in our local community?; or How can we 
 thinking about the causes of homelessness? These are just suggestions, and 
 we encourage you to bring your own questions and ideas to the seminars.\n
