Detailed explanation-1: -In 1917, Goldman and Berkman were sentenced to two years in jail for conspiring to “induce persons not to register” for the newly instated draft. After their release from prison, they were arrested-along with 248 others-in the so-called Palmer Raids during the First Red Scare and deported to Russia.
Detailed explanation-2: -The first Russian to identify himself as an anarchist was the revolutionary socialist Mikhail Bakunin, who became a founding figure of the modern anarchist movement within the International Workingmen’s Association (IWA).
Detailed explanation-3: -The etymological origin of anarchism is from the Ancient Greek anarkhia, meaning “without a ruler", composed of the prefix an-("without") and the word arkhos ("leader” or “ruler"). The suffix-ism denotes the ideological current that favours anarchy.
Detailed explanation-4: -During World War I, Goldman actively protested the war and encouraged men not to register for the draft. Arrested on June 15, 1917, Goldman was prosecuted and convicted “for conspiring against the draft” under the Espionage Act.
