An Anarchist's Story — Doco screening in Otautahi/Christchurch

in

Otautahi Anarchist film night!

An invitation to . . .

Ethel MacDonald: An Anarchist’s Story
A BBC Documentary on Ethel MacDonald and the Spanish Revolution

Film Screening

Thursday 28 May, 6.30pm
At the WEA (59 Gloucester Street)
Otautahi/Christchurch

Join us to follow on film the compelling true story of Ethel Macdonald — a remarkable individual, working-class woman and Scottish anarchist. In 1936 Ethel left for the frontlines of the Spanish Civil war to join the revolutionary struggle in Barcelona. Through written accounts and radio broadcasts on the impact of fascist forces on the Republic, Ethel became the voice of the anarchist movement in both Spain and England.

With a combination of narration, historical video, re-enactments and Ethel’s own personal accounts, BBC Scotland has successfully put together an exhilarating and inspiring documentary on Ethel's life and the Spanish Revolution. We encourage you to come and see the film, and join us for discussion afterwards.

Drinks and nibbles provided but BYO food welcome!

Again I ask. Don't you have to be an anarchist to run such a thing? Which one of these 4 people

"In solidarity,

is an anarchist?

Re: Re: An Anarchist's Story — Doco screening in Otautahi/Christ

yeah, yeah, whatever!

Re: An Anarchist's Story — Doco screening in Otautahi/Christchur

So indymedia are now deleting posts for what reason?

And that comment

"yeah, yeah, whatever!"

Is what you would expect from people who pretend to be anarchists.

Sure pleased your not anarchists.

One of you clearly said in public you were not an anarchist ; )

Re: An Anarchist's Story — Doco screening in Otautahi/Christchur

Not sure what you're talking about anon? We hosting the event have nothing to do with editing of comments — that's indymedia's function.

If you have a problem with one of us, feel free to contact us. Otherwise, I have no idea what you are on about!

Cheers

And don't assume that one of us posted that either. We have the decency of naming our posts...

I'm also happy to sit down and discuss with you what/who is and isn't an anarchist. Although I see little point in the " I'm a better anarchist' nonsense.

If you have any "constructive critisms", they are always welcome however this is not the forum for the same old boring personal attacks that don't get anyone anywhere.

You could always come to the film screening and 'constructively' add your ideas and opinions to the mix.

The only thing that is not welcome is disrepectful destructive abuse.

Hope to see you at the film screening for a cuppa tea and a chat.
