Since there is a famous communists thread I thought why not a famous anarchist thread?

Famous comic book writer, he wrote V for Vendetta and the Watchmen. (I read V for Vendetta over a year ago and thoroughly enjoyed it)

Noam Chomsky is a sellout.

I saw him speak last month, and he was asked why he supported John Kerry in '04. He said that John Kerry was the "only option."

Not much of an anarchist, if you ask me.

Can't find an actual picture of 'Stuart Christie', so one of his book covers will have to do.

Stuart Christie is a Scottish anarchist most well-known for his part in the Spanish resistance to the dictator Francisco Franco: he was arrested in 1964 while carrying explosives to assassinate 'El Caudillo'. Before he left England, he was interviewed for a television programme with Malcolm Muggeridge, a known MI6 contact, and was asked whether he felt the assassination of Franco would be right. He answered that it would; when the programme was broadcast after his arrest in Spain, these comments were edited out. He was sentenced to twenty years in prison but only served three, being released due to international pressure, with support from Bertrand Russell and Jean-Paul Sartre. After his release he continued his activism in the Anarchist movement in the United Kingdom, founded the Anarchist Black Cross and Black Flag with Albert Meltzer, was acquitted of involvement with the Angry Brigade and started the publishing house Cienfuegos Press.

I think famous means people have actually heard of them, many in this thread don't qualify.

yeah,although I took it as in famous AMONG Anarchists if you know what I mean? For instance,men I'd consider "Famous Irish Republicans", would probably not be known by most of the general public,I suppose the same for some "famous socialists or communists". Sadly,I reckon more people will recognise a face like Madonna than Emma Goldman! Ah,society.
