Not So Much with the Bomb-Throwing

You're thinking you know what "anarchy" means, right? But it doesn't always mean vicious young white men running roughshod over anti-war protests and molesting plate glass. Anarchy may just indicate people who think adults don't need governments, assuming mostly everyone would be cool to each other even, or especially, without the threat of government violence around all the time. It can also mean Diane DiPrima, beat poet and all-around sweet lady, or workers at boss-free getups like Arizmendi Bakery, or the self-reliant visual artists at the exhibit "Anti Anti Anti Anti." Find all of the above at the Anarchist Book Fair. Many, many other opinions about anarchy are encouraged at the fair, and no one will threaten government violence for dissenters, we're pretty sure. Meanwhile, read a book, attend a lecture, and munch on goodies -- like an anarchist.
