”REVOLUTION BACKWARDS: Stumbling towards a New Paradigm”

Anarchist Scholar,David Graeber,searches for a new Revolutionary Model

On Tuesday, October 10, at 7:30pm, the Libertarian Book Club's Anarchist Forum will present David Graeber, Yale Anthropology Professor. David of course has been in the news lately, as Yale loudly denies that his contract had not been renewed because he is an anarchist. So David has been out there being interviewed by Charlie Rose and getting his wikipedia entry. However, David will rather be speaking at the forum about the thoughts in his mind, as we shift into the 21st century, about what will be the new paradigm for changing a world that still needs a revolution.His research in Madagascar may make some contribution to what he has to say but like the rest of us he is looking at the world swinging around us and he has noted the various anarchist groups seeking new ways of living. So after David offers us his current vision of a new paradigm, he will be open to an extensive open discussion with the audience on their thoughts on this developing vision.

The event will take place at the Brecht Forum, 451 West Street, Manhattan (between Bank and Bethune streets) (212-242-4201). Take an A, C, E, or L train to the 14th Street and 8th Avenue subway stop or take a 1, 2, or 3 train to the 14th Street and 7th Avenue stop.

Everybody is welcome to come and to have their say. Admission is free for the presentation, but a contribution to aid the LBC is suggested.
