A conversation with a friend who recently gave an "introduction to anarchism" workshop and is also writing an article called "Making Our Relationships More Free." He's putting forward an anarchism that seeks a collective, relational freedom rather than an individual one.

Topics include:

• how to frame anarchism to people who don't understand it yet.

• a forthcoming anthology about the place of individualism in anarchism.

• the difference between freedom and capacity.

• the definition of freedom, and how to envision freedom without relying on liberal or capitalist conceptions of the individual.

• how we get free through changing and remaking our relationships with other people and other living things.

• the possibility of global revolution.

• the difference between anarchist analysis and revolutionary strategy.
