Wayne will present on:The Abolition of the State.
Revolutionary anarchists oppose all forms of domination and oppression: class, race, national, gender, sexual orientation, etc. Important in maintaining all oppression is the state. Both anarchists and Marxists talk about abolishing the state. But what does this mean? What actually is the state? How could it be abolished? What could replace it? What lessons can be learned from past revolutions? How can our theories about the state affect our present-day organizing and thinking?

I must admit I have a secret ;-) agenda, besides meeting comrades and perhaps selling books. I want to ally with you-all, within the broader anarchist movement, in supporting national self-determination. This is very controversial among revolutionary anarchists and antistatist Marxists, and even among comrades in NEFAC. Some agree with the idea, many are bitterly opposed. I have been denounced (on libcom) for supporting national liberation. Without necessarily completely agreeing, I hope we can somehow generally support these ideas, although I have no specific plans. If you or others are interested in my thinking on this topic, you could look up my essays: The Relation Between the Working Class and Nonclass Oppressions
http://www.anarkismo.net/article/6204

and: Lessons for the anarchist movement of the Israeli-Lebanese War
http://www.anarkismo.net/article/3614

Anyway, please let me know about any possible informal meeting with you and others.
Solidarity,
Wayne
