Anti-Capitalist Street Parties
Czech
and Slovak Republics
June 9, 13:00 Bratislava Slovakia --- Street Party 2 . The second
annual anti-capitalist street party event will be in downtown Bratislava
(Namesti Slobody) Info-stands, vegan food, street theatre, fire-shows
sound systems, and concerts. This pro-people and the commons, anti-road
action comes at a time when the European Investment Bank (EIB) is
funding a controversial bridge project over the Danube. Massive
amounts are spent on roads while Slovakia's once-impressive public
transport network rapidly deteriorates, and the Slovak railway service
is being slashed amid massive layoffs and privatization (per IMF
decree). (drugs, alcohol, violence, and bolsheviks not tolerated)
For more information contact ba-sp2@gmx.net and www.streetparty.sk
June
16, Street Party Praha, Czech Republic. More of the same, only probably
larger and hotter (you know the cops are loving anarchists in Praha
these days). The bigger the turn-out the better (we are expecting
500-1000) Dakujem Sudruh! (thanks comrade!),

Europeans resistance
against Bush and his crazy shit
Hard to think that US capitalist imperialism and aggression could
get any worse, then you get Bush Jr.. Well he's here and things
are getting worse. New Star Wars program, intensified war in Colombia,
regressing on climate change commitments, and pushing increased
repression against political activists around the world.
So he's coming to Europe this summer and will be met
by resistance where ever he shows. Brussels, Belgium; Madrid, Spain;
Gothenburg, Sweeden; and Ljubljana, Slovenia. Check each of the
sites for exact dates and events as some cities are holding multiple
events around the time.

EU Summit
Gothenburg, Sweden
A large demo against the European Union and the upcoming Euro. Lots
of focus on the racism and borders in the EU. these folks have been
planning for about a year.
They write: "We are mobilising to the EU Top
meeting in Gothenburg in June 2001 for two major reasons. The first
reason is to strengthen the Swedish and Scandinavian left.... The
second reason is that we want to continue the traditions that we
in Sweden have had of participating in international mobilisations....
The network is based upon three main social questions; environmentalism,
anti-racism and the feminist struggle.

World Bank
Barcelona, Spain
From June 25th to 27th the Annual Bank Conference
on Development Economics of the Worldbank (was going to) take place
in Barcelona. Mobalizations have been preparing for this across
spain and beyond and will continue to do so. Many of the plans are
still in full gear, especially the multitude of conferences/debates/anctivities
leading up to the days of action. Looking back in history, Barcelona
as a hotspot of anarchist resitance will be a perfect place for
the anti capitalist movement to make constructive plans for the
future of the movement and our society :-).
A recent call to
action says, "...after the cancellation of the meeting,
we think it is essential to show that our movement goes beyond blocking
the meetings of the international institutions, and to celebrate
the proven fact that the people united can change the world. We
must keep up the pressure against capitalist globalization and deepen
the crisis of legitimacy that the WB and other institutions of global
capital are experiencing with the aim of spreading the crisis to
the heart of the multinationals themselves. Furthermore, in the
process we aim to strengthen the anti-capitalist movement in this
country and prepare ourselves for the future. "

WEF European Summit
Salzburg, Austria
From the 30st of June till 3rd of July, the European
Economic Summit of the WEF will be held in Salzburg/Austria. Their
capitalistic Vision of the future is not ours, neither the right-wing-populistic
Vision of the Austrian Regime is - We call for Protests and Civil
Disobedience against Capitalism and Racism in Austria and every
other Place on the World. We are a group of activists, artists and
musicians, mostly in or from Salzburg, which don't want to accept
the bad states of our goverment, and the upcoming century of globalized
capitalism. Resist - Together! - Demonstrate against the WEF on
1st of July in Salzburg

Border Camp
Tarifa, Spain
We have chosen Tarifa because of its
symbolic value: the biggest border in Europe, the Straits of Gibraltar,where
more than 1500 persons died trying to cross and where 1000 africans
are arrested by the border police every month. The program of the
camp is still opened and we expect that different organizations from
Europe will come; also we are making all our efforts to bring people
from Africa and South America. |

Border Camp
Petisovci, Slovenia
The problem
of immigrations in Slovenia is very accentuated. The Balkan path has
been released after the end of Yugoslav wars, the State is dealing
with the problem in exclusively repressive and violent manner, the
European Union is pressing economo-political elite to stop any migration
what so ever. The summer camp is going to take place between 4th and
8th of July in the village Petisovci near Lendava. The location is
filled with symbolic. It is 1 kilometre from the Croatian border,
2 kilometres from Hungarian border, next to a dying refinery, in the
place that was once a spa. |

Border Camp
Bialystok, Poland
We see this as an especially important
area for a no-border camp as EU politics demand that Poland take a
tighter stand on people from the East, as Belarus heads more in the
direction of xenophobic nationalism and as hundreds of thousand of
people find it more difficult or even impossible to cross borders
to earn a living, visit friends or family or just take a simple vacation.
We plan doing a lot of work with the local population and on making
actions that will draw more attention to the border regimes of these
two countries and to the problems of border around the world in general.
There will be some exhibits, concerts, etc. made by groups from Belarus,
Russia, Ukraine, Poland and perhaps elsewhere.We also plan some excursions
and anarchist games during the camp. It is a good opportunity to meet
people, have fun and to show opposition to the border regime! This
no-border project is being organized by a coalition of actvisits frommany
countries, mainly from Poland, Belarus, Ukraine and Russia. |

Climate - Summit,
Bonn, Germany
At the international climate summit at Bonn from July 16 to July
27 the participating states plan to prepare the Kyoto agreement
for ratification which would mean a reduction of the CO2-emission
level of 1990 by 5.2% until 2008-2012. Although the agreement is
only a minimal consensus that wont be enough to stop global climate
change, the US and Australia already announced that for economical
reasons they have decided not to ratify it, an announcement that
was followed by a wave of international protest.

Border Camp
Genova, Italy
In July 2001 the G-8 top will take place at Genoa (Genova),
Italy. We, immigrants, antiracist and antifascist organizations and
associations of this town appeal to all immigrants in Europe to meet
in Genoa during the days of this convention, in order to demonstrate,
discuss and start building up new connection nets at international
level |

G8 Summit
Genova, Italy
Each person is called upon to make precise choices leading to real
cooperation and to the rejection of the paradigm implying huge economical
and social gaps inside countries and between different countries;
the uncontrolled exploiting of natural resources: imperial, colonial
and patriarchal policies; the use of war as a mean of solving controversies
between nations. For these reasons, we believe that, during the
G8 meeting, Genoa should be transformed into the meeting-place of
the human rights movements; asserting, first of all, equal rights
for all men and women: beginning with the right to a dignified life,
to freedom of speech, of expression, of movement, opposing the globalisation
of rights to the globalisation of finance and trade.

Border Camp
Frankfurt, Germany
The challenge for the Border Camp 2001
is to make clear that there is radical resistance to the neo-liberal
racism of the modernised anti-migration policy-even in the wealthy,
worldly, multi-cultural Rhein-Main region. Besides the antiracist
and antifascist interactions with those outside, the internal development
of the Camp plays a central role. With 500-1000 participants each
year, the Camp has come to be an important meeting point for different
antiracist groups and individuals. The Camp has come to stand for
the challenge and the difficulty of political co-operation. Precisely
because the Camp is composed of a variety (every year new) of heterogeneous
perspectives and against a background of different daily realities,
we are obliged to talk about shared basics, positions and activities.
