Daryle Lamont Jenkins to Appear at Scranton Radical Book Fair

SCRANTON RADICAL BOOK FAIR + REALLY REALLY FREE MARKET
The Scranton Radical Book Fair and Really Really Free Market is held yearly at the Nazareth Student Center at Marywood University. The book fair aims to promote the ideas of social, environmental and economic justice in the Scranton area. The book fair will include an exposition of lectures, demonstrations, books, zines, pamphlets, art, video, and other cultural and political creations.

Bring what you can; take what you need. A really, really free market puts in to practice the anarchist principal of mutual aid. Basically we are challenging the notion that the capitalist “free markets” are “free” (or even fair!). Instead of being free, capitalist markets depend on scarcity to keep prices for goods and services high. This scarcity means that, by design, some people can’t afford to get what they need, but it does create profit for capitalists.
