"But if capitalism collapsed tomorrow, we ask ourselves:
Would we be ready?
As anarchists, we spend a lot of time fighting against oppressive structures, whether it be patriarchy, polluters, bosses, or weapons manufacturers. But we also discuss our hopes and dreams for a new, more equal world – that of anarchism. We have developed concepts around mutual aid, solidarity, co-operation, direct action, equality, and non-hierarchical organisation, but how do we put these into practice?
If revolutions happen tomorrow we won’t have all the answers, and an anarchist society will not occur overnight – there will be ongoing change & adaptation. But the core principles of anarchism provide us with the building blocks for the future, and how to get there. Let’s be ready!"
1st of May - May Day
Radical Workers Bloc & action on the Bristol march & rally. Full info. FB event.
Meets 11am at Castle Park, marches to Trinity Centre for rally from 1pm, with speeches, bar, food, stalls. Bristol Radical History group will give talks at this on the history/origins of May Day, but sadly not on the main stage which will be dominated by Labour & TU reformists, with just a few exceptions. Boo!
Also at 1pm, in the city centre near The Fountains, there'll be a Mayday Carnival - bring what you expect to find!
