Two Roys:obituaries

Roy St Pierre

We are saddened to learn of the deaths of two former subscribers to Organise! magazine of the Anarchist Federation. Some of us remember them from when we were in the Anarchist Communist Federation/Anarchist Federation and when Organise! was a very fine anarchist communist publication.


Roy Emery, long term class struggle anarchist active in South West England. With partner Jan and friend and comrade Geoff Barfoot (who died in 2009) he carried out anarchist propaganda for many years in Somerset. A member of the Direct Action Movement and then Solidarity Federation.


Roy St Pierre of Colne in Lancashire. A long term anti-nuclear, environmental and anti-war campaigner. One of the founders of the Reading Anarchists in the 1960s. As well as subscribing to Organise! Roy sometimes sent donations to support the ACF/AF.
