"A Soldier's Story: Writings By a Revolutionary New African Anarchist" by Kuwasi Balagoon

"Kuwasi Balagoon was one of the Panther 21 that the State tried to frame in 1969. Subsequently a member of the Black Liberation Army, he escaped prison twice prior to being arrested following a failed Brink's expropriation in 1981. He died in prison of AIDS-related pneumonia in 1986. Clocking in at 120 pages, this is the most extensive collection of his writings ever published. Includes essays by David Gilbert, Sundiata Acoli, Meg Starr, and J. Sakai."
Location: Earth Matters Cafe, 177 Ludlow St. just below Houston. F Train to 2nd Ave., JMZ Trains to Essex/Delancey St.

The NYMAA Reading Group is open to all those interested in studying anarchism-- while some participants have read widely in anarchist theory and history, no prior knowledge of anarchism is expected. We have been meeting monthly since November '06 and select readings collectively.
