The Anarchist’s Bookfair — Saturday and Sunday, March 14 and 15
The annual Anarchist’s Bookfair has expanded to two days this year, and features a full line-up of speakers, an art show and, of course, books.
Here’s a description of a prior year’s fair:
Thousands of like-minded souls with a taste for state smashing, patriarchy toppling, government defying, feminism, punk, radical politics and children’s books with titles like “Herb, the Vegetarian Dragon” came out in force for the 10th Annual Bay Area Anarchist Bookfair.
They snatched up books by Noam Chomsky and Emma Goldman, greeted old friends, bought “Bomb the mall” T-shirts and DVDs about “imperial democracy” and happily lay in the sunshine with their anarchist dogs and wild-plant food pamphlets.
By midafternoon, the San Francisco County Fair Building and the lawn outside were packed with everyone from bookish brainiacs leafing through dense texts to green-haired punks with pierced septums and a distinctive, musky scent…
Where:
County Fair Building, Golden Gate Park, right inside 9th and Lincoln entrance

Saturday, March 14, 2009, 10 to 6
