Wednesday, January 21, 2015 - 11:00am to 1:00pm Jura is happy to host this discussion, organised by a group of anarcha-feminists:
"What would an Anarcha-Feminist Collective look like? Would it be a discussion group, reading group or activist group? Who would it involve? What would we talk about?
Do we have capacity to create an Anarcha-Feminist Collective?
Let's get together and have a chat to answer these questions and more.
Please Note: This is an autonomous meeting."
Wednesday, December 1, 2010 - 5:00am to 7:00am Accessible abortion on demand: Is law reform the solution?
When a Cairns couple were charged over a home abortion using RU486, the case highlighted the inaccessibility of medical abortion in Australia. At the same time the cost of surgical abortion has skyrocketed and services are mainly located in large metropolitan areas. Some feel abortion law reform will alleviate the problem. Is this the case?
Come see an award winning documentary by German filmmaker Sarah Diehl: Abortion Democracy: Poland/South Africa

Saturday, August 5, 2006 - 3:00am to 4:20am Jura Books collective meeting.
I’ve been thinking a lot about what it is I should say here tonight. There is so much to be said about the practice of anarchism and the practice of feminism that it can be really overwhelming. I finally decided that the essence of what I wanted to talk about was expressed in one concept: unpaid labour.
But first, let’s dispense with dualism. Dualism causes lots of problems when we try to analyse something as complex as gender oppression and gender privilege within capitalist society. If you try to apply the oppressor / victim analysis to every novel situation, you get nonsense such as “all men are rapists” (and hence all women are rape victims), or at best a bifurcation: “men are from mars women are from venus”. I’m not a victim, and I’m not from venus - something is lacking from the simple dualist analysis.
Collected over the last 40 years, the Jura Library is a great resource of books, periodicals, and political posters, with a broadly anarchist focus. The library is a collectively owned and managed. It has been kept alive through the donations and hard work of hundreds of volunteers over the years.
