The Flyer Text:

*MEET THE ANARCHISTS!

* Anarchism like Socialism, has a long and rich history as a radical
workers' movement and political philosophy, from the First International, to
the Spanish Revolution in 1936, to the Zapatista’s today in Chiapas.

* Anarchists, like Socialists, recognise the self-organisation of the
working class as the driving force of rev...olutionary social, economic and
political change.

* Anarchists, like Socialists, believe in a classless, stateless society
based on the principle ''from each according to their ability, to each
according to their need''.

* Anarchists, like Socialists, are committed Anti-fascists.

So what's the problem?

Historcially, Anarchists have been at the forefront of political and social
change and progressive thought, their role often overlooked and suppressed.
Today, 'Anarchist methodology' shines through in the decentralised and
autonomous way that UK Uncut organises, as well as in the recent university
occupations (e.g. UCL and London Met) and the Spanish 15M mass assemblies,
with their emphasis on a leaderless, non-hierarchical movement,
self-organised spaces and consensus-based decision making. It is these sorts
of practical applications that highlight how Anarchism is influencing
current social struggles.

Anarchists maintain that the people will always understand their own
material conditions better than any political party can ever do on their
behalf, and that as such, the people are best placed to confront and
overthrow Capitalism, without the interference or mediation of political
parties, whatever form they take.

The fact that such diverse movements are today openly organising free from
traditional top-down structures show how potent and viable Anarchist ideas
are in the current political climate.

We invite you to come and find out more on SATURDAY 2ND JULY at the "Meet
the Anarchists" Rally 3pm DETAILS AVAILABLE ON THE DAY!
