Rethinking Emma Goldman as an Individualist, Eugenicist, and Nietzsche Apologist

From Notes Towards an International Libertarian Eco-Socialism by Javier Sethness

Emma Goldman (1869–1940) was a complex and protean figure. As described here in a celebratory post from 2013, Goldman was a champion of anarcha-feminism, anarcho-syndicalism, and prison abolition. She courageously opposed U.S. participation in the First World War and suffered deportation to the nascent Soviet Union in retaliation, and then went on to publicly critique the Bolshevik takeover of the Russian Revolution. Later, she would agitate and raise funds for the anarchist CNT-FAI during the Spanish Revolution. She was a supporter of queer and trans* liberation who served the public both as a nurse in New York’s Lower East Side and as longtime editor of Mother Earth.

Emma Goldman and Individualist Anarchism

From C4SS by Shane Ross | @taocuck | March 3rd, 2022

Emma Goldman is someone who is frequently associated with anarchism as a historical phenomenon. Her mix of anti-state activism, radical support for feminism and free love movements in the early 20th century, and her radiant life of praxis for the sake of anarchy echo in our understandings of what it means to be an anarchist today.
