PAUL AVRICH MEMORIAL FORUM
LIBERTARIAN BOOK CLUB / ANARCHIST FORUM
On Tuesday, April 11, at 7:30pm, the Libertarian Book Club's
Anarchist Forum will present a memorial for the beloved anarchist historian
Paul Avrich.
Paul Avrich is considered the most important 20th century American
historian of anarchism. But he is remembered not only for his scholarship
but also for his wit and his human closeness. His research included not
only the discovery of important material dealing with the anarchist actions
in the Russian Revolution but also numerous interviews with American
anarchists as real people not just public figures. His books on anarchist
events in this country were important and numerous. Information on his life and works can be found
here and here.
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 and invited to come and to have their say.
Admission is free for the presentation, but a contribution to aid the LBC
is suggested.
If you have questions, contact the LBC /Anarchist Forum, 212-979-8353 or
