8th Annual Halifax Anarchist Bookfair

*SAVE THE DATE – MORE INFO TO COME*

September 6th, 2025 (rain date September 7th)

With each passing day, our lives are further controlled by power structures that subjugate our bodies and land in service of profit. Our social lives have become confined by tech billionaires who horde our data and manipulate our behaviour to train AI. Our alienation from the natural world has become normalized as it crumbles beneath our feet. As the rearing heads of fascism strobe across the doomscroll, we are reminded that now, as always, is the time for anarchism.

Anarchism is not merely a reaction to fascism or capitalist power structures — it invites us to imagine a world, imagine our lives, free of coercion. When much of the public is being swindled into pro-‘Canadian’ rhetoric & consumerism here on stolen land, we as anarchists remain staunchly opposed to nationalism. We see nationalism as a tool of colonialism and capitalism to keep us from seeing the lies behind their facade. We dedicate our lives not to individual wealth & economic progress but to responsible interdependence, solidarity & self determination. We find meaning in exploring our collective dreams of liberation.

On Saturday, September 6th, 2025 we invite you to join us for Kjipuktuk/Halifax’s 8th Annual Anarchist Bookfair to convene, scheme & dream a liberated world together. All ages are welcome to come cultivate curiosity, solidarity & mutual aid through sharing books, zines, art, music, discussion, and skills.

As our world continues on a disturbing & overwhelming trajectory of extraction, displacement & genocide, with anarchism we can ride this shitstorm together with integrity and resolve.
