Tiocfaidh Ã¡r lÃ¡! Our Day Will Come, Comrades!

Wiki-name: Tiocfaidh Ã¡r lÃ¡ (pronounced 'Chucky ar la', confusing to most english speakers, I know, but Gaelic phonetics are like that. It means 'Our Day Will Come' in Gaelic.)

Languages spoken: English and Afrikaans, although I can understand Dutch, and I'm learning Zulu. It's a lofty (and perhaps unattainable) goal, but I hope to eventually speak English, Afrikaans, Zulu, Dutch, Gaelic, Arabic, French and Hindi.

Occupation: Final year of High School, then I hope to study at either the University of Cape Town, or at Rhodes University for a Bachelor of Journalism (BJourn), a Masters in Philosophy, and a Masters in Political Science

Hobbies: Reading, Thinking, Writing (fiction and non-fiction), Painting, Playing Guitar, Listening to Music, Photography, Swimming, Ice Skating and Cooking

Short Auto-Biography: I'm Soairse Every, an Anarcho-Socialist and Anarcha-Feminist who lives in Johannesburg, South Africa. I'm of Irish descent and my family moved to South Africa to escape the Troubles in Northern Ireland, they originally came from Derry. Unfortunately some members of my family are racist, which is one of the reasons they moved to South Africa during the Apartheid era, but myself and my younger relatives have managed to overcome that. My uncle was a member of the IRA, and while I don't support that organisation because of it's statist authoritarian outlook, I do have some residual sympathy for it's members, and an understanding of their motives. Also, my uncle's death at the hands of the Royal Ulster Constabulary in 1974 was one of the catalysts in my discovery of left-wing politics in general, and Anarchism in particular. It happened long before I was born, but I heard about it a lot in my childhood days. I'm also a very artsy person, and I enjoy writing, painting, and playing the guitar.
