Note, the scope of this historical overview is limited, and we encourage readers to check out <a href=\"https:\/\/theanarchistlibrary.org\/library\/jason-adams-non-western-anarchisms\">Non-Western Anarchisms: Rethinking the Global Context.<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>More Info:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@anarchopac\">Zoe Baker on Youtube<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.akpress.org\/means-and-ends.html\"><em>Means and Ends <\/em>on AK Press<\/a>, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/itsgoingdown.org\/fire-from-below-zoe-baker-on-lessons-from-anarchist-history\/\">Lessons from Anarchist History<\/a>\u201d podcast with IGD.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Music: <\/strong>Lee Brickley, <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=pKoC1hNPHWQ\">Anna\u2019s Song<\/a><\/em><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On this episode of the It\u2019s Going Down podcast, we again speak with anarchist historian,&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":12919,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1974],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12918","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-from-its-going-down"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>\u201cMeans and Ends\u201d: Zoe Baker on Historical Anarchist Tensions, Practice, and Action &#8211;
