Discussion and workshop on organizing and agitating at the job and on the unemployment line!

Tuesday, June 2nd, 5:15 pm, at the Lucy Parsons Center. Free Pizza provided (both vegan and regular pizza!)

As the recession deepens, as the politicians continue to bail out their friends while raising our taxes and cutting our services, as the sham that is capitalism becomes clearer to working people by the day, as working class folks across the world respond to hunger and fear with rage and social struggle, United States anarchists have by and large remained on the sidelines. Let's set things right.

We're living in a potentially revolutionary period, its time to get agitating and organizing!

Join BAAM on Tuesday June 2nd at 5:15pm-7pm at the Lucy Parsons Center (549 Columbus Ave, Boston). There will be some experienced organizers there to share their tales and advice, but please bring your own stories and ideas.

The discussion will not only include salting, direct action and ways to facilitate collective organization of our workplaces (be them through traditional unions, the IWW or independent unions) talking to your co-workers about revolution and the issues, but we will also talk about unemployed organizing, creative ways to agitate at unemployment offices, unemployed unions and the possibility of the formation of collective businesses and other productive projects of the organized unemployed.

The workshop will be directly followed by the monthly BAAM meeting.

-Brought to you by the Anarchist Education Working Group and members of the Industrial Workers of the World.

Hope to see you there!
