7th Dublin Anarchist Bookfair 2012 - May 26th Liberty Hall

This blog hopes to get down and encourages fellow Communists/ Republicans/ Radicals of whatever persuasion to get along too. As we have already watched the Bernadette documentary and discussion with Leila Doolin at the QFT we will probably attend the Iceland screening and the Unlock NAMA discussion afterwards. The first session on alternative media and Kerr and McKearney's talks will also be a hit along with the bookstalls by PM Press, AK Press, WSM, RAG (Revolutionary Anarcha-Feminist Group), Manchester Anarchist Federation, Solidarity Books, Look Left magazine, Organise and Just Books, Oxfam, the Irish Labour History Society, Corporate Watch and Freedom Press. Several campaign groups will be present with information stalls including: IPSC (Ireland Palestine Solidarity Campaign), Choice Ireland, Shell to Sea, LASC (Latin America Solidarity Centre), FEE (Free Education for Everyone), AFA (Anti Fascist Action) and the Campaign against Household and Water Taxes. 


In the Foyer: A Decade of Resistance - Images of Struggle 2002 - 2012
This collaborative exhibition features photographs by activists and photographers Andrew Flood, William Hederman, Aileen O’Carroll and Paul Reynolds.
In the context of street protest, official history has often relied on images captured by photographers positioned behind police lines, or in some way mediating events from the perspective of authority. By contrast, the photographs in this exhibition record resistance from the viewpoint of the resister.



‘A Decade of Resistance’ documents an array of anti-capitalist, anti-war, pro-choice, environmental and other protests, starting with a mass trespass at Shannon Airport in October 2002 and ending with a Reclaim The Streets in Dublin in April 2012.
