Female militia of the anarchist CNT-FAI, Catalonia, Spanish Civil War, 1936

Emma Goldman por la CNT-FAI
El 1 de mayo de 1937, en el Hyde Park de Londres (Inglaterra), durante la gran manifestació de 60.000 personas para conmemorar el «Primero de Mayo» —siendo la primera vez en treinta años que participaban anarquistas—, Emma Goldman, bajo los auspicios del Comité de Londres de la Confederación Nacional del Trabajo (CNT) y de la Federación Anarquista Ibérica (FAI), habla sobre la experiencia revolucionaria y colectivista que se estaba llevando a cabo en la península ibérica.
Este discurso será fruto de las vivencias surgidas por esta militante anarcosindicalista en su primer viaje a estas tierras.

Aquí yacen los restos de Ramón Vila Capdevila (cementerio de Castellnou de Bages). Militante de la CNT y el último de los maquis anarquista catalanes, que participó en la proclamación del comunismo libertario (1932), la guerra civil (1936-39), y la Resistencia francesa (1939-45) y, durante otros 18 años, la lucha contra el franquismo. En memoria de él y de todos los que dieron su vida por la libertad y el ideal anarquista

When I feel particularly jaded, this is a photo I like to look at and feel like maybe a better world is possible.

I do not have it saved. It used to be that a simple search for CNT-FAI would produce it. Today it only led me to a stock photo website that had it heavily watermarked. Reverse image search led me to the Wikipedia article on Anarcho-Syndicalism where it can be seen.

The Internet is getting more useless by the day.
