American newspaper Washington Post publsihed an interesting article yesterday, 2nd November, about secret prisons run by the CIA on foreign soil. Unsurprisingly, the agency, as well as top US politicians, are trying hard to keep the information secret, as the article shows.

Last Friday was the first London Critical Mass ride after riders were told they could be arrested at future Critical Mass rides. The Metropolitan Police demanded that the 'organisers' give notice of the route in advance. Thousands of non-polluting cyclists, skaters, bladers, and pedestrians along with soundsystems and samba bands defied the Metropolitan Police's clampdown on London's Critical Mass and the Government's ban on unauthorised demonstrations within a kilometre of Parliament Square -

Petition to the Birmingham Council Meeting Nov 1st 2005
A group of concerned and affected citizens of Birmingham met on Monday the 24th October 2005, to discuss the events of the prior weekend where at least two people lost their lives, many were injured, several seriously and residents and traders' properties were damaged or destroyed, some of which still remain vulnerable to future damage or destruction. All this occurred in response to the alleged rape of a young woman. The meeting started with a minute's silence for those who lost their lives in the weekend's events.

Killing Each Other
I was reminded this week at a film showing of ‘Handsworth Songs’ by a colleague, ‘Oppressed people internalize their oppressor’s contempt for them, acting on it first by killing each other,’ quoting Franz Fanon. Immigrant communities have always felt segregations amongst each other since their arrival into the ghettos of major European cities. Whether it is the streets of Birmingham or Paris, the children of immigrants feel unrepresented, isolated and generally ignored by mainstream society. They are often dealing with poverty, unemployment and racism.

Save Angela Maria Patterson
Angela was born on 13th July 1966 in Jamaica. A number of years ago she was attacked in Kingston when some acid was thrown in her face. This blinded her left eye. She reported the attack to the police, and the police told a gang that she was an informer. She was forced to leave her children and go into hiding because of the threats to her life being made by the gang. Even whilst in hiding the gang found her and shot her, fortunately only wounding her in her leg, however her nephew was killed.

WMA Statement On Birmingham Riots
West Midlands Anarchists condemn the violence metered out in the name of racism on our streets of Birmingham. Those who attack people because of their race are a cancer on the working class, no good can ever come from the splitting of a vibrant working class community like that of Handsworth down fictitious race lines.
