2nd Annual Halifax Anarchist Bookfair

Halifax Anarchist Bookfair – Sept. 7th, 2019, 10am-6pm
5450 Russell St, Halifax (Kjipuktuk), unceded Mi’kmaq territory.
~For anarchists, and those curious about anarchism~
FREE – Welcome to all.

We are living in a world where ecological collapse is imminent, and
fascist forces militarize borders, destroy land and livelihoods; a world
where basic freedoms are a further and further reality for most people,
a world where prisons still incarcerate our loved ones.

In this spirit of rebellion, we invite you to come to the 2nd Annual
Halifax Anarchist Bookfair.

We are calling for a gathering, the largest anarchist event in the
Atlantic region, to learn collectively how to challenge and disrupt
these forces. In this time, it is crucial for anarchist gatherings to
take place, to share stories, strategies and plans for dismantling
capitalism and all forces of coercive control, and to experience and
create together a culture based on mutual aid, solidarity and freedom
for all.

Come out whether you’re a seasoned anarchist, excited to learn about
anarchism, a curious skeptic, a lover of books, or if you are simply
becoming disillusioned with capitalism and the government. Featuring
publishers and book distributors, vendors, artists, and facilitators
from all over North America/Turtle Island; the day will be filled with
presentations, workshops, films, discussions, kids’ activities, art
exhibits, parties and more! Let’s connect our struggles, build our
capacities, and support anti-authoritarian revolutionary culture and
community.

Last year’s bookfair was an incredible success. Over 400 rebels attended
throughout the day to peruse the huge selection of literature, and
participate in workshops that inspired new ideas and actions. Parties
and events brought us together; new friendships were formed and old
friendships rekindled. We send out a huge thanks to everyone who came
and helped make the weekend an overwhelming success.

We are now inviting you to help make this year’s bookfair weekend as
incredible as last year.
