We are especially interested in hearing from local people presenting on issues of particular relevance to anarchists and other activists in the NYC area. In response to feedback from previous years, we are also interested in including more praxis-oriented events, as well as ideological discussion, on topics including but not limited to:

* healthcare
* radical parenting
* radical education
* community gardening
* alternatives to capitalist economics
* prisoner support and/or prison abolition
* housing and gentrification
* pirate radio and diy media
* decolonization and anti-imperialism
* active solidarity
* racial justice/anti-oppression
* indigenous sovereignty
* immigrant justice
* strategies for pushing forward a radical agenda in mainstream politics
* ecology
* animal rights
