DESCRIPTION:In Honor of her 150th birthday: Emma Goldman:\nHer Legacy, Anarchy, and 
 Complexities, and OccupyBy Candace Falk, Founding Editor/Director,The Emma 
 Goldman Papers, UC, Berkeley\n\n\nPlease spread the word to your friends 
 and social media contacts!\nCandace will speak about Emma Goldman, her 
 legacy, her complexities, and the often misunderstood range of her 
 definition of anarchism, and the spontaneity and collaborative nature of 
 Occupy that resonates with her imagined vision of  the future.  Candace 
 is founding editor of the Emma Goldman Papers at UC Berkeley, which has 
 collected, identified, and published 22,000 documents by and about Emma 
 Goldman, and which is now available on open access through archive.org.  
 She is also editor of three of a four-volume fully annotated selected book 
 edition of Emma Goldman's American years, from 1890, when she entered the 
 political stage, to her deportation in 1919; as well as various school 
 curricula and traveling exhibitions.  Candace will read some choice 
 excerpts from her papers, and discuss why Emma Goldman lives 
 on.\n\nCandace's work began when she was in her 20s and serendipitously 
 discovered Emma's love letters in a guitar shop in Chicago's Hyde Park.  
 The treasure trove became the basis of her book, Love, Anarchy, and Emma 
 Goldman, (about to be re-issued this month on June 27th, Emma Goldman's 
 150th birthday)-- a respectful, and steamy story of the complexity of 
 matching one's vision and reality-- in love and in politics.\n\n\n\nCandace 
 Falk:\n* Founding Editor/Director,The Emma Goldman Papers, University of 
 California, Berkeley (as of July 1st: The Emma Goldman Papers Public 
 History Project).\n* Author: Love, Anarchy, and Emma Goldman\n*

 Frequent speaker - radio interviewee -and contributor to various books, 
 including an essay "Nearer My Subject to Thee: Over 30 years of documentary 
 engagement with Emma Goldman"\n\nThis engagement brought to you by the 
 participants in the Occupy Oakland General Assembly.\n\nThe talk will be 
 followed by the General Assembly, possibly abbreviated, wherein we will 
 discuss the area's activist events that have happened over the last week 
 and the upcoming week's events.  And other political/activist/social 
 justice topics that anyone wishes to bring up.\n\n \n
