The ANZAC Myth is a publication created by 3CR's Joe Toscano from the Anarchist Media Institute - it seeks to dispel the myths surrounding ANZAC Day. Have a read and tune in to Anarchist World This Week each Wednesday from 10.00 - 11.00am for more analysis of our past and present. The booklet has been published to acknowledge the sacrifices made by those Australians who opposed conscription and Australia’s involvement in World War One.
