Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

• Many First Nations people did not
participate in the past election
• Arguing sovereignty did not bring
anyone to the table or change who
Canada chose as a leader
• The impacts of that leader has
contributed to detrimental impacts
to First Nations people (services,
funding, legislation directly
impacting First Nations)
• Until we truly have a Nation to
Nation relationship we have to use
every avenue we can to elect leaders
that recognize our Treaties and our
unique rights in our homelands
