Emma Goldmanová bola americká anarchistka a komunistická aktivistka.

Narodila sa v židovskej rodine v Litve. Keď mala trinásť rokov, rodina sa po zavraždení cára Alexandra II. v čase politických represií presťahovala do Petrohradu.

V roku 1885 emigrovala ako šestnásťročná s nevlastnou sestrou Helenou do Ameriky, kde sa rýchlo skontaktovala s ruskými exulantmi a anarchistami.

Nekompromisne presadzovala právo každého indivídua na sebaurčenie a zo začiatku sa hlásila k násiliu ako prostriedku politického boja proti vykorisťovaniu a utlačovaniu. Neskôr sa od tohto postoja dištancovala.

V rokoch 1895 – 96 absolvovala vo Viedni kurz pre pôrodné babice. Po návrate do USA naďalej bojovala za slobodu prejavu a začala propagovať ideál „slobodnej lásky“, čo znamenalo, že základom bola vzájomná úcta medzi partnermi, nie model malomeštiackej rodiny.

Goldmanová vydávala časopisy a publikovala knihu Anarchism and Other Essays . Zasadzovala sa za zverejňovanie informácií o kontrole pôrodnosti.

Počas prvej svetovej vojny protestovala proti nútenému odvodu mužov, za čo sa v roku 1917 dostala na dva roky do väzenia s priateľom Alexandrom Berkmanom. Po návrate z väzenia oboch deportovali do Ruska, kde ich počiatočné sympatie k boľševikom vystriedalo poznanie skutočnosti, že ich ciele sa v revolučnom Rusku nedajú realizovať.

V nasledujúcich rokoch bývala v Nemecku, Francúzsku, Anglicku, Švédsku a v Kanade.

Po Berkmanovej samovražde v roku 1936 zaujala Goldmanovú Španielska občianska vojna, preto odišla do Katalánska a odtiaľ do Londýna propagovať republikánske Španielsko. Počas cesty v Kanade usporiadala zbierku, dostala však mozgovú porážku a ako sedemdesiatročná zomrela v Toronte. Wikipedia

Emma Goldmanová: Citáty v angličtine

“The history of the American kings of capital and authority is the history of repeated crimes, injustice, oppression, outrage, and abuse, all aiming at the suppression of individual liberties and the exploitation of the people. A vast country, rich enough to supply all her children with all possible comforts, and insure well-being to all, is in the hands of a few, while the nameless millions are at the mercy of ruthless wealth gatherers, unscrupulous lawmakers, and corrupt politicians.
The reign of these kings is holding mankind in slavery, perpetuating poverty and disease, maintaining crime and corruption; it is fettering the spirit of liberty, throttling the voice of justice, and degrading and oppressing humanity. It is engaged in continual war and slaughter, devastating the country and destroying the best and finest qualities of man; it nurtures superstition and ignorance, sows prejudice and strife, and turns the human family into a camp of Ishmaelites.”

A New Declaration of Independence (1909)

“Yes, love is free; it can dwell in no other atmosphere. In freedom it gives itself unreservedly, abundantly, completely. All the laws on the statutes, all the courts in the universe, cannot tear it from the soil, once love has taken root.”
