Their War, Our World: Building The Student Resistance
The Campus Antiwar Network's East Coast Conference

April 4-6th
Hunter College, New York City

Come one, come all! As we enter our 6th year in the occupation of Iraq, our leaders refuse to present an exit strategy or even a truthful representation of what's happening on the ground. Though we keep being told violence is down, US air strikes are up, and in 2007 sectarian killings "ethnically cleansed" Baghdad, turning it from 65% Sunni to 75% Shia. A poll conducted by the British Ministry of Defense found that 82% of Iraqis are "strongly opposed" to the occupation, and "less than 1% of the population believes coalition forces are responsible for any improvement in security." Resistance to the war has emerged on three fronts: Iraqi civilians defending their country against foreign invasion and continued devastation, enlisted US troops refusing to participate in an illegal and bloodthirsty war, and American civilians (particularly the student movement, who feel that effect of the war daily -- as military recruiters continue to haunt our campuses and tuition is raised as the cost of the war depletes funds for education). As of yet, the US government has refused to recognize these forces of resistance as legitimate, but with continued and heightened pressure in the form of independent, grassroots activism, we can hope to create the change we wish to see.

The NYC Anarchist Bookfair 2008 Weekend Kickoff Event

Thursday, April 10th at The New School (65 Fifth Ave.)
7PM, FREE

"Remembering Spain, Remembering Heroes! An Encore"

An opening talk about "Us, -- the Anarchists,-- the only dedicated organization honestly caring about the working class, and also give some examples from my Spanish experience, where entire towns were ran by Anarchists, with order, and efficiency with our libertarian spirit and concern. How the communists betrayed the proletariat world wide, creating a bourgeois class (CEO and contractors), non compatible with our libertarian ideal. How could you understand that the Soviet Union, after 70 years of communism, vanished without fire a shot.The Communists, and also their Unions, are losing support from the working class all over the world."

April 18 - May 8, Risley Hall

During the "Great War to End All Wars" of 1914-1919, a number of artists, writers, radicals, and intellectuals escaped the trenches and fled to Zurich, where they could seek shelter in Switzerland's neutrality.

There they established the DADA MOVEMENT, an art/theatre/literature purge of bourgeois culture and society, all that had led to the absurdly futile bloodletting of their era. This movement, which questioned and revoked just about everything sacred to art and "civilization" spread like wildfire throughout Europe and New York.

In 1920 the Berlin Dadaists held a momentous "Dada Fair", which featured political diatribes, fantastic paintings, cartoons, a stuffed policeman dangling piggily from the ceiling.To this day it evokes joy, laughter, and a recognition of the vitality of this sort of expression.

Here we are in 2008, once again engaged in an extraordinarily futile bloodbath, and once again feeling the impotence of conventional protest. What a perfect time to revive this festival of dissidence, this visual shockwave of irreverence, freedom of speech, and visual "weaponry".

New York Metro Anarchist Alliance Reading Group: "Chomsky on Anarchism"
Join in the upcoming discussions of the NYMAA Reading group!

Thursday, April 24, 6:30pm:
"Chomsky On Anarchism" by Noam Chomsky

"We all know what Noam Chomsky is against. But very little ever gets said about what exactly Chomsky stands for, his own personal politics, his vision of the future. Not, that is, until Chomsky on Anarchism, a groundbreaking new book that shows a different side of this best-selling author: the anarchist principles that have guided him since he was a teenager. This collection of Chomsky's essays and interviews includes numerous pieces that have never been published before, as well as rare material that first saw the light of day in hard-to-find pamphlets and anarchist periodicals. Taken together, they paint a fresh picture of Chomsky, showing his life-long involvement with the anarchist community, his constant commitment to nonhierarchical models of political organization, and his hopes for a future world without rulers." -AK Press

Some key articles collected in the book are available online:
