A-Infos (en) US, NYC, 2/14 Anarchist Forum: PROVO: Amsterdam's Anarchist Revolt

The-Febuary-Anarchist-Forum ---- Saturday-Febuary-14-at-2:00pm ---- PROVO: Amsterdam's 
Anarchist Revolt> (The Dutch 60's Anarchist Group that shaped the European activist 
groups) ---- Speakers: Jordan Zinovich, Lindsay Caplan, Janna Schoenberger & Judith Malina
The February Forum on the Provo movement (as the January Forum also did) will provide a 
vision of an historic 60's anarchist group that combined elements as diverse as humor, 
provocation of the police (that is where their name came from) and building social 
structures to help the oppressed and poor. And a group that also had fame and wide 
recognition. The main difference of course is that the group was Dutch based in Amsterdam 
not the L.E.S. ---- However the anarchist politics of the 60's was worldwide and we are 
looking back now at the visions and delights of the groups in those days.

And the feeling grows for a revival.

	The Forum speakers ( Jordan Zinovich, Lindsay Caplan, and Janna
  Schoenberger will be three folk who currently live in America but who all
  have connections with the anarchist publisher Autonomedia which last year
  published Richard Kempton's well liked book 'Provo: Amsterdam's
  Anarchist Revolt.' They have also all studied the history of Provo. The fourth speaker 
will be The Living Theatre's Judith Malina who isan
  anarchist who spent a great deal of 60's time with anarchists in
Europe. In addition to the speakers and the usual question and discussion period,
  there will also be several minutes of archival film showing what the Provo
  events and people looked like..
