Organizer of the Iron Column, the Valencian Anarchist Militia Unit, Social Revolutionary, and Anti-Francoist Soldier
: He helped to set up the Valencian anarchist militia unit, the Iron Column, to unleash social revolution against the military and fascist revolt of July 1936 which began the Spanish Civil War. The Iron Column was the most intransigent and most maligned of the anarchist militias. Manzanera served on its War Committee and here remembers both its achievements, and his comrades who fell fighting, not only against fascism, but for anarchy. (From: TheKateSharpleyLibrary.net.)
Quote #6 on Education Struggle Quotes >> Learning and The State
“Towering over the terrorizers of peoples and the governments professional grave-diggers and stronger than the executioner's and inquisitor's ax is human reason and endures in the ten commandments of the new life which does not perish on the gallows, burned at the stake, strangled by the garrote or before the firing squad.”
