"Historical Seditions is excited to release our first original book based on over five years of original research ranging from archives to historic newspapers: "Deconstructing Settler Socialism."
Dive deep into the 19th century origins of anarchism and communism amid the genocidal settler colonial context of the "wild west." The book's focal point is the uncomfortable legacy of local sections of the International Workingmen's Association (aka the "First International") and a home-grown West Coast revival International that emerged a decade following the (in)famous split between Marx and Bakunin. Geographically, much of the story is split between San Francisco and the Salish Sea in the Pacific Northwest but expands to encompass broader "Western North America" from Sacramento and Eureka in California to Denver and Rock Springs, WY in the Mountain West, to British Columbia in the North and Sinaloa, MX to the South, tying in global connections across both the Pacific and Atlantic. Critical light is shed on the history of "cooperative colony" land projects amid ongoing Indigenous land theft and the foundational role anti-Chinese racism played in constructing a white settler labor movement. Topple your idols, question how we might destroy leviathan itself rather than simply demanding a rank-and-file democratization of the spoils of colonization."
Duration: approx. 1 hour talk on the book and research itself, with half hour or more afterwards for Q&A and discussion
Free at the door! Books will be for sale // 6pm // all-ages // dry space // safe(r) space // anti-capitalist space // respect the space and each other!

SubRosa is a collectively run anarchist community space, a place to meet others and challenge our assumptions and act on our passions. We strive to create a vibrant environment for events, classes, meetings, organizing, performance, art, studying and more. SubRosa also offers radical literature, and houses the Anarchist Lending Library. We welcome folks to join us in fostering an environment free from coercion, sexism, queer&homophobia, racism, ableism and other hierarchies. Let's create together the world(s) we want to live in now. http://www.subrosaproject.org/
SubRosa is part of the Hub Community Center, in downtown Santa Cruz, CA which is the unceded homelands of the Awaswas-speaking Ohlone people known as the Uypi, who stewarded these lands since time immemorial. Centuries of colonial violence led to the removal and displacement of the Uypi. The Amah Mutsun Tribal Band, comprised of the descendants of indigenous people taken to missions Santa Cruz and San Juan Bautista during Spanish colonization of the Central Coast, is today working hard to restore traditional stewardship practices on these lands and heal from historical trauma.
The Santa Cruz Hub for Sustainable Living includes a constellation of projects that support skill-sharing, appropriate re/use of resources, and interconnected, creative communities - since 1994! http://www.santacruzhub.org
