In this dialogue, we would like to invite participants to consider the question: why might nursing need anarchism?
We will introduce key principles and practices of anarchism, such as mutual aid, direct action, care as political, and militant joy.
We will invite attendees to consider extending nursing’s social justice mandate to a praxis that resists, dismantles, and builds alternative futures for a more just society.
