I was born in 1943, in the midst of World War II. My parents were both working-class radicals, and they raised me to believe that the world could be a better place. I grew up in a small town in New Jersey, and I was always a bit of an outsider. I didn't fit in with the other kids, and I didn't like the way things were. I was drawn to anarchism at a young age, and I started organizing against the Vietnam War when I was in high school.
After graduating from high school, I went to college at the University of Chicago. I was involved in the anti-war movement there, and I also started writing about anarchism. In 1968, I helped to organize the first national anarchist conference in the United States. After college, I moved to New York City, where I became involved in the Weather Underground, a militant anti-war group. I was arrested several times for my activism, and I spent some time in prison.
In the 1980s, I became involved in the anti-nuclear movement. I helped to organize the first national anti-nuclear conference in the United States, and I also helped to found the Nuclear Information and Resource Service. In the 1990s, I became involved in the Zapatista movement in Chiapas, Mexico. I traveled to Chiapas several times to support the Zapatistas, and I wrote about their struggle in my book *Direct Action: An Ethnography of the Zapatista Uprising*.
In the 2000s, I became involved in the Occupy Wall Street movement. I was one of the organizers of the first Occupy encampment in New York City, and I helped to write the movement's declaration of principles. I also wrote about the Occupy movement in my book *The Democracy Project: A History, a Crisis, a Movement*.
I have been an anarchist for over fifty years. I have seen the world change a lot in that time, but I still believe that a better world is possible. I am committed to fighting for a world without war, poverty, or oppression. I am an anarchist because I believe that everyone has the right to be free and equal. I believe that we can create a better world, and I am not going to stop fighting until we do.
My memoir, *My Eighty-One Years of Anarchy*, is a story of my life as an anarchist. It is a story of resistance, rebellion, and revolution. It is a story of hope and despair, of victory and defeat. But most of all, it is a story of the human spirit. It is a story of how one person can make a difference in the world.
I hope that my memoir will inspire you to get involved in the struggle for a better world. I hope that it will show you that anything is possible if you have the courage to fight for it.
Thank you for reading.
In solidarity,
David Graeber
