2008 NYC Anarchist Film Festival

Where:
1-5pm @ The Bowery Poetry Club (308 Bowery)

6pm-midnight @ The Yippie Museum (9 Bleeker St.)

Last April, the first ever New York Anarchist Film Festival was an overflowing success. Participants included filmmakers and viewers from around the country, Europe and Latin America. Despite being a grassroots, unfunded, do-it-yourself, stuck together with duct tape kind of effort, we presented a forum to share and experience incredibly artistic, creative and socially and politically diverse media which exposed viewers to all kinds of issues, perspectives and realities. It was an exciting event that brought many different kinds of people.

"Chomsky On Anarchism" by Noam Chomsky

"We all know what Noam Chomsky is against. But very little ever gets said about what exactly Chomsky stands for, his own personal politics, his vision of the future. Not, that is, until Chomsky on Anarchism, a groundbreaking new book that shows a different side of this best-selling author: the anarchist principles that have guided him since he was a teenager. This collection of Chomsky's essays and interviews includes numerous pieces that have never been published before, as well as rare material that first saw the light of day in hard-to-find pamphlets and anarchist periodicals. Taken together, they paint a fresh picture of Chomsky, showing his life-long involvement with the anarchist community, his constant commitment to nonhierarchical models of political organization, and his hopes for a future world without rulers." -AK Press
