Philip Josephs (25 November 1876 – 26 April 1946), was a Jewish anarchist, anti-militarist, tailor, and bookseller. In July 1913 he founded New Zealand's first anarchist collective Freedom Group, and was radically active during the First World War.

Early years
Josephs was born in the port city of Liepāja, Latvia (then Russia) on 25 November 1876. Little is known of his early years, but it is likely he left Latvia due to the pogroms of the 1890's.
