"Next Step" Collective Seeks Political Convention Protest Contacts

Hey everyone--

  A local group of activists here in Olympia [Washington] formed the Next Step Collective a few weeks ago in the hopes that we could rekindle the creative spirit that the "movement" once had, by proposing a 220 mile march from the Democratic National Convention to the Republican National Convention this summer. The attachment lays out a proposal that we would like to have dispersed as widely as possible in the hopes that we can take on this monumental project from a very diverse set of backgrounds. Please read the attachment and get back to me with any thoughts when you can. Much love and look forward to spreading the
revolution with all of you.

"State of Emergency"

A Convergence of Ideas, Actions and Experiments

Melbourne, May 21-24, 2004


RED ALERT

Armed guards patrol 'civilian' aircraft. Travellers from suspicious
states entering the USA are fingerprinted and photographed. Anti-terror laws
allow anyone to be arrested without warrants or legal representation. Arms
budgets inflate. The US runs a police state in Iraq while Australia becomes the
'sheriff' of the Asia-Pacific: interning its unwanted visitors here,
providing military intervention there. Fear of the 'invading hordes' is
the law. For the rulers of the global empire, the time since 9/11/2001 has
been a 'state of emergency'.


But for the exploited, the poor, the different, the disenfranchised,
nothing much has changed. Capitalism has always manufactured panics. It has
always exploited our bodies, our minds, our time, our creativity, the planet on
which we live. It has always forced us to move or given us no choice but
to flee, reclassified us as illegal to suit its needs, barricaded itself
against our strength and life and designed ever more spurious 'threats'
to the state in order to shut down its people. Our daily lives are just as
difficult as before. The state of emergency is not the exception, but
the rule.

Proposal to form a maillist/network of antiauthoritarian groups to coordinate issues concerning ESF2004

We, activists in different Nordic anticapitalist movements, would like to propose to our "colleges" of anticapitalist/antiauthorian/zapatist/disobedient groups and collectives all over Europe to initiate some kind of coordination of our intervention in the European social Forum2004, - in the preparatory process as well as in the Forum event.

hydrarchist writes... since the release of this article libertarians in Dublin and the Wombles in London have been the subject of a tabloid attack linking them to terrorists etc. Of course this is rather routine. However it is not routine for the journalist to get drunk and reveal her true purpose whilst 'infiltrating' a publicly announced discussion on the black block. Nor to publicly refute the value of ethics. See comments attached at end. Enjoy!

Dublin Grassroots Calls European Days of Action on May Day Weekend"

Activists from the Dublin Grassroots network are calling for a European day of action in Dublin on Saturday, May 1st, as the highlight of a weekend of action from Friday April 30th, to Monday May 3rd. These days of action will focus on symbols of all that is wrong with the EU as it currently stands: militarism, neo-liberalism, fortress Europe and the EU police state. We are inviting people from all over Europe, and the world, to join us in Dublin on Mayday to show our leaders that their agenda for EU integration, driven by the wealthy and powerful, will face resistance. We will also be using the days of action to highlight local issues and campaigns which are linked to the broader problems of corporate globalisation and the EU.

We will be holding an initial planning meeting for the days of action on Saturday February 7th, at 2pm in the Teachers Club on Parnell Square. This meeting is open to all and all ideas and suggestions are welcome. This meeting will be participatory in nature, designed to give everybody a say and to involve everybody in the planning and decision making, rather than merely turning up to listen to experts. No matter how much experience or political expertise you may have, we welcome your active involvement on an equal level with everybody else.
