Brockley Anarchist Reading Club

January 5, 2026 @ 6:30 PM 8:00 PM

Brockley Brewery, 31 Harcourt Road, Brockley, SE4 2AJ

The Brockley Anarchist Reading Club is beginning our discussion of David Graeber and David Wengrow’s The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity.
This book fundamentally challenges the standard narrative of human history, arguing against the notion that hierarchies and the state are inevitable. Graeber and Wengrow compel us to look past the confines of capitalism and actively practice imagining necessary political futures based on historical examples of freedom and self-governance. 
All are welcome! Whether you are a lifelong anarchist or just beginning your journey, join us to discuss how recognizing the long history of human political experimentation acts as a necessary step toward revolutionary change.
Meeting Details: Book: The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity (Reading Chapters 1-5)
