Description:
A three day event organized as a direct response to
educate and empower people to make informed decisions
about the many different war's being waged all over
the world. Totally FREE of charge. This conference is
an anarchist perspective on the different aspects and
types of war, and how it affects us ordinary people in
our daily lives. It will focus on growing political
repression due to war, racism, immigration,
patriotism, and also to promote community organizing,
direct action/civil disobedience, and anarchist
practices. As Anarchists we do not accept and refuse
to obey the racist war's the US military has waged or
is currently waging on people all over the world. This
is a conference in which we are able to come together
and speak to one another on what ordinary people can
do to promote an anti-war and anti-authoritarian
political movement within our own communities. We want
a better world, one without hierarchy, imperialists,
or empires. We want a new world, and we are hoping
that through education and action we are able to
achieve that common goal that binds us all together.

"...Ironically, perhaps, the best organized dissenters
in the world today are anarchists, who are busily
undermining capitalism while the rest of the left is
still trying to form committees."
