“I Think I’m Emma Goldman” is an attempt to explain anarchism. Anarchism is the basic belief that bosses, religions and governments stand in the way of people achieving their true potential. Almost any critique that is leveled against anarchism can easily be inverted against the state; who is responsible for all the violence in the world? Who is responsible for keeping people poor & uneducated? Who is upholding the will of capital over the well being of people? This song talks about how anarchist theory has informed and shaped the movements happening around the world in the past year, from Occupy Wall St. and its offshoots; Strikedebt & Occupy Our Homes, to Food Not Bombs, from the rise of the Black Bloc in Egypt, the daily battles in Greece, to the Tarsands Blockade. History has always proven that the only real change that has happened in this world was because people put their bodies on the line and took Direct Action. I see it as an ideological framework to practice in every day life, the desire to want to help others, and the will to resist.
