Emma Goldman fu un'anarchica, femminista, saggista e filosofa statunitense di origine russo-lituana, che svolse un importante compito nella diffusione del pensiero anarchico classico in Europa e Nordamerica.

Subì diversi arresti negli Stati Uniti d'America, i più clamorosi dei quali per diffondere informazioni sulle modalità di controllo delle nascite.

Costretta a lasciare gli Stati Uniti d'America perché sotto minaccia di deportazione, visse in seguito tra Francia e Canada, Paese in cui trascorse gli ultimi anni.

Emma Goldman: Frasi in inglese

“The history of the American kings of capital and authority is the history of repeated crimes, injustice, oppression, outrage, and abuse, all aiming at the suppression of individual liberties and the exploitation of the people. A vast country, rich enough to supply all her children with all possible comforts, and insure well-being to all, is in the hands of a few, while the nameless millions are at the mercy of ruthless wealth gatherers, unscrupulous lawmakers, and corrupt politicians.
The reign of these kings is holding mankind in slavery, perpetuating poverty and disease, maintaining crime and corruption; it is fettering the spirit of liberty, throttling the voice of justice, and degrading and oppressing humanity. It is engaged in continual war and slaughter, devastating the country and destroying the best and finest qualities of man; it nurtures superstition and ignorance, sows prejudice and strife, and turns the human family into a camp of Ishmaelites.”
