BOAB - Bologna Anarchist Bookfair
An event dedicated to anarchist culture
Talks, debates, book stalls, magazines and DIY/self-productions, children’s playground, music, food, organized by Biblioteca Elio Xerri (Circolo anarchico Berneri), Centro studi libertari G. Pinelli and Edizioni Malamente, with the support of ReBal (Network of anarchist and libertarian libraries).
No resignation, but self-organization! In the death-politics and pessimism era, let’s strengthen self-management, let’s fuel the revolts.
Useful information
Bring t-shirts (or other fabrics) if you want to participate in the live screen printing on Saturday 6 at 7 PM.
Don’t forget your phone earphones: we will provide a link during the conference to access simultaneous translation.
