LIBERTARIAN BOOK CLUB / ANARCHIST FORUM
--------------------------> The Habit of Freedom: Legacies of Paul Goodman The June Anarchist Forum >>>>On Tuesday, June 12, at 7:30pm, the Libertarian Book Club's Anarchist Forum will present a panel discussing the life, work and legacy of Paul Goodman. Goodman who lived from 1911 to 1972 is considered to have been a pacifist, anarchist, poet, and author of novels and plays. He has been called one of the most influential social critics of the 1960s. His famous
book “Growing Up Absurd” has been said to establish him as “the philosopher of the New Left in the 1960s.” He organized against the Vietnam War. His plans for organizing social structures included keeping private cars out of Manhattan. The panel will include Taylor Stoehr, who is Goodman’s literary executor; Wayne Price, who among other things is a practitioner of gestalt therapy, that Goodman helped create; and Jonathan Lee, a filmmaker who will show a preview of his movie “Growing Up With Paul Goodman.”
>>>>>>After putting their ideas forward, the panel will answer questions and respond to audience comments.

The Living Theatre and the LBC unite to let the Anarchist Voice be heard.
Two anarchist groups, that were begun in the 1940’s to get the word out on what our society really is and how it can be healed if it switches to anarchist principles, have united again to get our message heard. The Living Theatre has opened a New York show place again after years of wandering from site to site. They have offered their new space to the LBC so that the Anarchist Forum and other LBC events can have a home with our
comrades.
