Awareness League

The Awareness League (AL) was a Nigerian anarchist organisation active since 1991 to 1999.[1] The Awareness League has gone through several periods of repression, making its own organizational efforts and continuity sporadic, as well as communications with the rest of the anarchist movement. AL was known to be anarcho-syndicalist in orientation, having joined the IWA–AIT at its Madrid congress in December, 1996.
