Subject: An Anarchist FAQ updated


hello all

"An Anarchist FAQ" webpage has been updated. It can be found at:

http://www.anarchistfaq.org/
http://www.anarchismfaq.org/
http://www.anarchyfaq.org/
http://www.geocities.com/CapitolHill/1931/

(The last address is generally updated first)

An Anarchist FAQ is an in depth introduction to anarchist
ideas, ideals and history. Find out why anarchism is
opposed to hierarchy, state and capitalism. Find out what
different types of anarchism there is and why it is also
called libertarian socialism. Find out why anarchists oppose
thepresent system and what they aim to replace it with.

It has been updated on May 29th to mark the birth
of French anarchist Louise Michel.

She won fame as the "Red Virgin" during the Paris Commune
of 1871, emerging as one of the leaders of the insurrection.
Exiled to New Caledonia for her role in the revolt, she
was released n the general amnesty of 1880 which public
pressure forces the government to give to the surviving
Communards.

She continued her anarchist activity, famously leading a
crowd of 500 unemployed workers across Paris under the
Black Flag of anarchism in 1883. Pardoned three years
later, she resolutely continued her anarchist activity,
dying during an anarchist speaking tour in 1905.

In addition, visit the updated FAQ links page with over
750 links to anarchist webpages, organisations, papers,
magazine, books, publishers and so on as well as many
non-anarchist but related sites of interest. This can
be found at:

on line.

yours in solidarity
