How to become more educated in Anarchy and understand better

I've recently started reading Now and Than by Alexander Berkman and I haven't gotten to far into it but it makes a lot of sense to me. But I don't want to seem uneducated when I talk about Anarchy what are things I can do to help me understand how to talk to people about Anarchy? My first assumption is to read more Anarchist literature and I do intend to do that I just am a slow reader and get burnt out easily but that wont stop me. Is there more things I can do? Discuss on different Anarchist forums?

Since you are a slow reader and get burnt out easily, it's natural that you might feel kind of discouraged. But the pace of your reading doesn't matter as much, you just have to keep doing it. It doesn't matter how long it takes for you to finish a book; the fact you finished it is what matters. As a slow reader myself, I've had the same experience. I've told myself that my goal is to learn, not to finish fast. Therefore I don't care how long it takes, and neither should you. Another thing you can do though is discuss topics with other anarchists, it helped me a lot when I was starting.
