The Second Annual East Bay Anarchist Conversation & Book Event

Sorry I seem to have put the cart before the horse.  There's an Anarchist Book Fair happening right here in the East Bay nearly a month before A Fire To The Mountain in Flagstaff.  Here's the info!

 

The event will be held at the Humanist Hall (http://humanisthall.net/wp/) 390 27th Street, Oakland, CA, 94612-3104 on October 26th. It will include conversations and books during the day and something yet to be determined in the evening. The event will be a "dress up" (think Halloween) occasion.  http://eastbayanarchist.com/

 

For those of you who aren't familiar with Flagstaff and any of the Northern Arizona land struggles such as those on Black Mesa and the San Fransisco Peaks, please check out this article:  http://peoplenotprofit.net/people-of-color/flagstaff-and-northern-arizona-land-struggles/ and if you have the chance, watch this movie about Black Mesa:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S0klYkKseI

 

Writing of Black Mesa I feel obligated to post a cute sheep picture from the land.
