The NYC Noam Chomsky + Anarcho-Syndicalism Meetup Group
|
THIS MEETUP CONSISTS OF TWO INTERDEPENDENT GROUPS: There is the MAIN DISCUSSION GROUP which meets about every two weeks and reads books and articles by Chomsky and other writers related to current world affairs, Socialism, Anarchism, and other topics of political and historical interest in preparation for discussion of all sorts of issues. People of all political persuasions are welcome, including Chomsky critics. No idea will be supressed here. A second group, THE PROGRESSIVE PHILOSOPHY READING GROUP, meets separately every two weeks with the goal of carefully working through classic texts in philosophy to better understand major political movements like Socialism, Communism, and Anarchism (especially Anarcho-Syndicalism - the political philosophy to which Chomsky subscribes) by writers like Marx, Chomsky, Bakunin, Rocker, and others. We'll also join the reading group of the NY Metro Alliance of Anarchists (NYMAA) which tackles books on the history and philosophy of Anarchism. All are welcome to participate in one or both groups. Learn more about Chomsky and access links to hundreds of his writings, interviews, and speeches here: www.chomsky.info.

What's New?
-
"Looking forward to join you to the upcoming events."
-
"I'm somewhat convinced by anti-utopian thinkers that the idea(l) of socialism - as a modern replacement for the ideal cosmology of ancient thought - is just that, a mental refuge for the intellect from primordially unreasonable existence."
-
"I think Anarcho-syndacalism comes as close to what I would desire for the future of our world and my life. We can only build socialism one coop at a time. "
-
"Hello. I am thrilled to find you and look forward to discussing the examinations of Chomsky, as well as modern activities, especially here in New York."
-
"Interested in anarcho-syndicalism, potentially i have a unique perspective - i was born in the ussr and my parents are ussrians ;) "
-
"Hello!"
-
"I'm a libertarian-socialis t (anarcho-communist), which is what Chomsky actually is (anarcho-syndicalism is only one aspect of LS/AC). I am also interested in science, philosophy and sci-fi. Oh, and I've interviewed Chomsky on WBAI on my radio show! "
-
"I've had an interest in Anarchism for the past few years but have yet to start reading Chomsky. I'm looking forward to meeting others and learning more."
-
"30 yr old Irishman. Socialist party member. Socialist by passion, anarchist by Reason. I also love pints!"
-
""Ask a Guatemalan" -Noam Chomsky to William F. Buckley, on the ethics of U.S. intervention."
