Tonight is my first meeting with the Emma Goldman Collective, a local group that seeks to extend community works and consciousness-raising in the name of progressivism (and obviously, anarchism). After a long conversation with Anne this afternoon on the topics of exceeding feminism, embracing various forms of progressive living, and the need for an active local movement, I’m itching for some way to actually enact my goals and ideals in the community.
Updates if anything good happens.
