April Drop in Session

Need advice about an issue with your boss or landlord? Want support organising in your workplace or community? Want to talk about anarchism or syndicalism? Want to meet members of the group and find out how SolFed works? Just want to say hi? Then come see us at one of these drop in sessions.

The next session will be on Thursday, April 16th, 19:00 – 20:00, at the London Action Resource Centre (LARC), 62 Fieldgate Street, E1 1ES. We will be in the upstairs rooms. If you can, please bring a donation for the space.

Red And Black Club is Back!

Come to the London Action Resource Centre (LARC), 61 Fieldgate Street E1 1ES, for the first of what will be a monthly social and fundraiser. From 8pm until midnight you can meet up with other anarchists for a chill time to chat, gripe, and possibly even plot.

The first Red and Black Club will be Friday the 27th of March and will be the last Friday of the month going forward. We do not have an alcohol license so none will be sold in LARC, but feel free to bring your own booze. Suggested donation of £10 on the door, but no one will be turned away for lack of money. Half of this will go to LARC to keep the space running and half will got a new zine called Anarchy which we hope to distribute for free.

Reading Group 19 – Resistance in the Workplace

For out 19th reading group we will be doing something a little different; instead of reading a book we will be reading a set of articles suggested by different members of the reading group.

The articles chosen have been deliberately selected to give differing and conflicting perspectives on organising and resisting in the workplace in order to provoke discussion on the topic.

The article we are reading will be:
Anarcho-Synidcalism by Tom Wetzel – A short introduction to modern anarcho-syndicalism.
Trade Unionism by Anton Pannekoek – A short critique of trades unions/introduction to council communism.
Death to Rank and Filism! by pre-Proletarian Gob – A critique of rank and file organising in the British postal service in the 90s.
Dare to be a Daniel by Wilf McCartney – A short history of one the early British syndicalist unions from 1905 to the first world war.
A Critique of Syndicalist Methods by Alfredo Bonanno – A Longer piece that is a critique of syndicalism from an insurrectionary vantage point.
Strategy & Struggle by SolFed – A Longer piece that is an internal debate within the anarcho-syndicalist Solidarity Federation.

Our friends at Freedom Press here host the reading group for free, so please support them by using them for your supply of radical books and zines.

The reading group will be meeting on Tuesday the 31st of March, 19:00, at Freedom Bookshop, 84b Whitechapel High St, London E1 7QX. You are welcome to come and join in the discussion even if you have not finished the reading.
