Is the general omnicrisis getting you down? Looking for co-conspirators, or just some hope? Come and see what’s happening down in the grassroots.We’ve got over 50 stalls and 20 free workshops: practical sessions on everything from how to deal with immigration officials, to fixing bikes, to engaging safely with riot shields. We’ll be exploring the political in the personal with the ‘It Takes A Village’ discussion, DIY HRT for Trans folk and will writing for radicals. Expert guidance on what’s going on with protest and terrorism legislation and easy ways to manage your digital security. Get up to date with the latest Disability Liberation work or Landrights analysis, or join the plenary on effective struggle in the workplace with the sex workers union and hospital staff. Hear from the folks organising on the front-lines of emboldened racism, and the activists behind the campaign that toppled Colston. Or perhaps you just need to be inspired by the Reasons To Be Cheerful Plenary, featuring regional campaign victories from the last 5 years, with an analysis of the tactics that got us there.
There’ll be a creche and kids soft play space, loads of novel merch, some shiny new books and zines and great food. If you like stickers, big ideas and a bit of a party, come and see what’s brewing.
Start time 10.30am, first hour masked. For Access info, to book a creche space, and full details of workshops and stalls see https://bristolanarchistbookfair.uk
