Today in Labor History June 4, 1919: Trotsky banned the 4th Ukrainian Congress of Free Soviets with his Order #1824. He also sent troops to destroy the Rosa Luxemburg Commune near Provkovski, and declared the Ukrainian anarchist insurgent Nestor Makhno an outlaw. The Free Territory within Ukraine, also known as Makhnovia (after Nestor Makhno) lasted from 1918 to 1921. It was a stateless, anarchist society, defended by Makhno’s Revolutionary Insurrectionary Army (AKA the Black Army). Roughly 7 million people lived in the area, refusing to pay rent to the landowners and seizing the estates and livestock of the church, state and private landowners, setting up local committees to manage them and sharing them among the various villages and communes of the Free State.

Time for Insurrectionary History!

Enough of commemorating political and religious figures.

Let’s remember those who rebelled 😀

Makhnovia established 1918 to be a stateless anarchist society

Flag attributed to the Makhnovists by Bolshevik media, proclaiming "Death to all those who stand in the way of the working people"
