Edinburgh Anarchist Feminist Bookfair

We’ll be holding a debrief to think about what went well at this year’s bookfair and what we could do better. If you have any feedback, please let us know. You can fill out the form on our website, email us at eafb (at) riseup (dot) net or send us a DM. edinburghafb.org/rsvp-1

Tonight at 7pm. Register for the zoom link.

This also wont' be the only opportunity to get involved with organising the 2022 bookfair, so if you can't make it tonight, but want to help, drop us a message on here or at eafb (at) riseup (dot) net.

We want to spread the skills to organise an event like this, and avoid a single view of what it should look like becoming entrenched. Organising the bookfair shouldn't become a burden that anyone has to shoulder, else it won't happen. But to ensure that we need new people!

We need your help to organise the 2022 Anarchist Feminist Bookfair. Join us online on Tuesday at 19:00 GMT to talk about plans and ideas for the new year. facebook.com/events/9743678…

We need new people to get involved and help us plan and organise the event, from publicity to design, scheduling the programme to editing videos there are lots of roles and we would love for new people to come along and get involved.

Such an amazing programme and set of speakers they've got for this weekend.

Hope everyone has booked their tickets. This is tomorrow!

Our talk from the bookfair with @ScotPep is now available to watch again. Class war, the Nordic model, migrant solidarity and the pandemic. It's a great conversation. youtu.be/alhVHE0hhbg

@Lighthousebks @EdinCityofLit @EdinSisters @EdinAntifa @ARBooksellers @GuardianBooks Love and rage pals. The abuse you get is appalling. You're doing great work. Solidarity, and stay safe. 🖤❤️💜

Our booksellers are real people. You might not like what we stand for, but you have no right to threaten our humans or make us feel unsafe at work. Today’s latest threat, pinned to our doors after weeks of harassment, had us choose safety & selfcare. We’ll be back tomorrow.

Oh look! Here's the video from @CindyMilstein's event for THERE'S NOTHING SO WHOLE AS A BROKEN HEART at the @EdinAFBookfair. With contributor Alice Ross and @dirozevepave. youtube.com/watch?app=desk…
