Spanish Anarchists Quotes

Spanish Anarchists quote from classy quote

Freedom, or individual liberty, was a basic premise of the Spanish anarchist tradition. Individual sovereignty is a prime tenet of most anarchist writing; the free development of one' s individual potential is one of the basic rights to which all humans are born. Yet Spanish anarchists were firmly rooted in the communalist-anarchist tradition. For them, freedom was fundamentally a social product: the fullest expression of individuality and of creativity can be achieved only in and through community. As Carmen Conde (a teacher who was also active in Mujeres Libres) wrote, describing the relationship of individuality and community: I and my truth; I and my faith ... And I for you, but without ever ceasing to be me, so that you can always be you. Because I don' t exist without your existence, but my existence is also indispensable to yours.

~ Martha A. Ackelsberg
