Thanks for the links! Any place you'd suggest starting with? I'm mostly asking because it's just really easy to bump into super biased sources. For example, Ive seen Kronstadt, 1921 around, but the folks around me who've read it also are unapologetically anti communist (left and otherwise), and the author seemed to have a specific agenda to paint anarchists in a very positive light.

My book club which is expressly communist, reads Kronstadt, 1921 as part of our curriculum. We read it after three books on the Russian rev. The guy who runs the club and came up with the curriculum is kind of a stickler for historical accuracy, so I trust it is worthwhile.

We will actually be reading it in a couple of weeks so if you want to read it with comrades (or any one else for that matter) here's our discord link https://discord.com/invite/mCy6zEAQ

Are you listening to cool people who did cool stuff

[-] hungrybread@hexbear.net 2 points 6 months ago

I try not to buuut I did see there are several episodes about this on there and that did prompt the post lmao.

I don't really like the format of the shows on that network (why invite a guest on to talk AT THEM for 1 to 4 hours? They're literally wasting their guests time, it drives me nuts).

Did you check out those episodes?

[-] Wakmrow@hexbear.net 2 points 6 months ago

Yeah listening now. Definitely interesting, definitely from an anarchist perspective.
