Tearing at the Roots will be a anarchist/anti-civilization gathering in Baltimore. It will take place on August 30-31 at 2640 St. Paul Street and Druid Hill Park. From the website myspace.com/tearingattheroots:
"We have a two day festival in the works slated for August 30th and 31st of 2008. The first day will be held indoors at 2640, and the second will be outdoors somewhere in a location not yet discovered. We are also looking for people to do workshops on dismantling/re wilding. Expect to see John Zerzan, Theresa Kintz, Kevin Tucker, A longing for Collapse press, another Green Anarchy collective member…and more to come! Get in touch if you would like to table, present a workshop, or help in any way! We are also looking for musical acts if anyone is interested. We may try to keep booking a show at a different space for Saturday night after day 1, so contact us!
Tearing at the Roots is an anarchist collective looking for autonomous beings interested in exploring the roots of domination and strategies for a reconnection with life. As anarchists we seek to end all domination and we wish to explore how deep that domination goes. Seeking an understanding of the interconnected misery of civilization, capitalism, patriarchy, racism, the state and other forms of oppression, TATR is interested not only in learning about the existence of these repressive regimes but also actively seeks the destruction of them! Speakers, workshops, discussions, and active learning for the dismantling of civilization! Please email feralthought@riseup.net for more info -The Tearing At The Roots collective "
