Errico Malatesta was born on this day in 1853. Mentored by Mikhail Bakunin, he played a pivotal role in the anarchist movement from 1872 until his death in 1932.

Today 12/18 neo-Nazi group “white lives matter” will attempt a demonstration in those cities.
While the participation is weak, keep your community safe - oppose & expose them!
