Our last meeting on anarchist education led us to read about Youth Liberation.
We will be discussing NO! Against Adult Supremacy Vol. 1 (2019) at our next meeting!
“Every hierarchy, every abuse, every act of domination that seeks to justify or excuse itself appeals through analogy to the rule of adults over children. We are all indoctrinated from birth in ways of ‘because I said so.’ The flags of supposed experience, benevolence, and familial obligation are the first of many paraded through our lives to celebrate the suppression of our agency, the dismissal of our desires, the reduction of our personhood. Our whole world is caught in a cycle of abuse, largely unexamined and unnamed. And at its root lies our dehumanisation of children.”
NO! Against Adult Supremacy Vol 1 is available on the Anarchist Library, or the Internet Archive as a printable zine. (our reading is pages 17-36)
As always, we will be meeting at Camas Books, 2620 Quadra street, unceded Lekwungen territory. The next session will take place on Sunday, April 28 at 6:30pm.
