Jan 7: Indigenous Perspective on Neoliberalism – Marcos + Huntington

Posted on December 27, 2019 - December 27, 2019 by Creatrix
Subcomandante Marcos
It is our conviction and our practice that to reveal and fight, neither bosses nor political leaders, nor messiahs, nor savours are necessary; to fight you only need a little humility, a bit of dignity, and a lot of organization, the rest serves the collective or it does not serve.” – Subcomandante Marcos

At the next Victoria Anarchist Reading Circle, we are going to explore the Indigenous Perspective on Neoliberalism, beginning with Subcomandante Marcos’ 1997 speech, “The Fourth World War Has Begun” and supplemented with a text on the global Indigenization Resurgence excerpted from S.P. Huntington’s The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order (1996).  

Please download the reading from the lower right-hand side of our website.

As per usual, we will be meeting at Camas Books (2620 Quadra Street) on unceded Lekwungen Territory. The meeting is on Tuesday January 7th. Doors at 6:50; Discussion at 7:00pm.

Dec 17: Women in the Zapatista Movement

Posted on December 8, 2019 - December 8, 2019 by Creatrix

Comandanta Ramona y les Zapitistas

At the next anarchist reading circle, scheduled for Dec 17, we will be diving deeper into the revolutionary theory and praxis of the Zapatistas by specifically focusing on the women in the movement.

Our reading discusses the role and attraction of women to the Zapatista movement. It does not mention any specific female figures associated with the EZLN, but if you want to learn more about one woman, Comandanta Ramona, take a look here.

The reading is available as a download on the bottom right-hand side of our website. As always, we will be meeting at 7pm (with doors open at 6:50pm) at Camas Books and Infoshop (2620 Quadra Street) on unceded Lekwungen territory.

Addendum: In preparation for this reading, many other optional texts were discovered, and will be brought to the circle. We can choose the last reading of December from one of these texts, or from any other text anyone brings to the discussion. See you there!
