Here is our conversation with author and historian Zoe Baker. Until recently, Zoe was perhaps best known for publishing YouTube videos on anarchist theory and history under the moniker anarchopac. Zoe's new title from AK Press 'Means and Ends: The Revolutionary Practice of Anarchism in the United States and Europe', takes the thorough research and accessible prose she's known for in her YouTube commentary and expands it to book length.
Means and Ends covers the period of anarchist activity and theory between 1868-1939 in both Europe and the United States. In our conversation we discuss Zoe's dual roles as revolutionary and scholar, political historiography, the relevant lessons to be drawn from anarchism's past, and much more.
