aftermath.

We would also like to reflect on where we are heading: 15O, 5November, 19O, …

Portugal’s occupy/15setembro movement unites to fight cuts on #s29

Portugal’s protest movement unites to fight cuts
Portugal’s anti-austerity protest this Saturday promises to be another big one after the organisers that brought as many as a million into the streets on September 15 swung behind the demonstrations and rallies planned by the CGTP trade union central.
The signatories of the manifesto ‘Fuck the troika! We want our lives!’  (see below) are asking the Portuguese to ‘forget any occasional disagreements and unite’ to create a ‘common front of resistance.’

[ENG-ESP-ITA-POR-GER-FRA-TUR] Paris May 1st: General assemblies of workers!

[ENG]

1st of May:  General assemblies of workers!

The 1^st of May is International Workers’ Day.  In many of the world’s cities millions of us will gather to demonstrate in defence of our rights.

For thirty years now, the deconstruction of the welfare state has been underway. Each successive government has worked hand in glove with the financial markets, submitted to their will – and likewise bent us to their will.

Updates from Portugal for #12m15m

MAY12

There will be actions on the May12 in Porto, Coimbra, Santarém and Lisboa, and it seems that there are people in Évora already organizing something too. In Leiria, Braga, Aveiro, Faro and Vila Real is possible that someone or some group comes up with a demo, but I didn’t find any information yet.

There have been already two assemblies to prepare the May12 in Lisbon (in which several groups are participating and finally managing to work together!), one in Coimbra and another in Porto. This saturday there will be assemblies in Lisbon and Coimbra to (I hope) define the final plans (or almost) for the May12.

As soon as there are definitive information about the different protests I will let you know. For now, I leave here the link for the protest in Santarém: https://www.facebook.com/events/361011567273888/

Low Lives: Occupy!
INTERNATIONAL CALL FOR ARTISTS AND PRESENTERS

Event Date: 3 March 2012
Deadline for proposals: 6 February 2012
www.lowlives.net
lowlivesoccupy@gmail.com

Low Lives launches new program in partnership with Occupy With Art and The Hemispheric Institute of Performance and Politics.

On March 3rd, 2012, Low Lives: Occupy! an international platform designed to enable artists, audiences, and presenters in alliance with the Occupy movement to support the occupation, will transmit live performances, actions, and happenings online as they occur in real time around the world. Participating artists, artist collectives, Occupy groups, and presenters worldwide will expand the reach and visibility of the Occupy protests by broadcasting to an international community and audiences. The Occupy protests, and the myriad of perspectives and experiences related to this unique moment, will be amplified, explored, and experimented with, through Low Lives’ internet-based creative platform. Low Lives: Occupy! recognizes the powerful opportunity that is the presentation of performances from around the world, and invites artists to open eyes and minds by presenting a radical re-imagining of possible ways of existing and relating.
