Anarchist Writers

So this site is my first sole admin experiment with Drupal. As anyone who visited today will know it was rollercoaster. First the site was off line with a nice polite off line message - but for a long time.

So the last meeting of the tour was in LA on Friday night with over 20 people attending a meeting at the South California Library. This was the second meeting hosted by Amanecer.

Inside the AK press warehouse

The bay area date took place at the AK Press warehouse in Oakland. Around 26 people attended including for the first time a couple of people who appeared to have come along specifically tom disagree with me - someone told me they were from some post anarchist reading group.

The San Jose meeting took place at the De Bug centre in San Jose and attracted 32 people. The meeting organised by Amancer was the first public event they organised in the city.

Last nights meeting at Humboldt State University at Arcata went well with 35 people attending. The Humboldt side trip has been a very interesting one for political as well as scenic reasons.

Everything looks set for an official launch in August -- so just about a year late! Still, my fault for making it so big (or would comprehensive be a better word?)

The Eugene meeting, which was small, 12-14 people, took part at the Apocalypse on Broadway warehouse in an industrial estate.

Looks like home

Just did a meeting at the university in Portland Oregan, 24 people were there.

On Mayday I was in Olympia, Washington one of the few East coast ports rumored not to be shout down by the one day strike against the war. The meeting that evening in Evergreen College attracted around 18 people, we'd probably have got more was it not for the drama of the day.

I went to the May Day march yesterday in London with my children. Absolute nightmare getting there, eventually had to walk and meet the march half-way…
