Facebook killed the internet star: reflections on radical media

30-10-2014 19:34 | Indymedia | Other Press | Technology | World

In September, the SchNEWS radical media collective issued a statement saying they had decided to call it a day. Although SchNEWS might publish one-off articles in the future, the direct action newsheet will no longer be published regularly.

This article is a personal reflection by a one-time SchNEWS contributor. It's not a statement from SchNEWS itself, neither is it attempting to be a full post-mortem of it. Rather it is highlighting some key areas which affected it and other radical media collectives...

Cameron is the frontman for the Jungle Thatcher dreamt of..

This is about NeoCons deregulating of everything. Main items first: the courts system has been scrapped. The system that did exist up to a few years ago is no longer. Under that system, which was near-accessible, at least up to certain stages which the nearly-citizenry could use. There was, at least some notional scope to put the claimant’s assertions before the court. That has been abolished,,,

Guardian sinks further away from Journalism

1940GMT 13 Sept 2014 The London Guardian's Alan Rusbridger (who has erased the Manchester bit almost without trace) has announced a raft of measures that take him much nearer to Murdoch than would have been previously thought. In justifying the move, Rusbridger has resorted to complacently quoting Mr Scott, the very overly triumphed longest serving Editor of a Century ago. But Mr Rusbridger is, typically, being over the top in his boasts.

London Borough of Hunger Hamlets, the new Chronicle

The Tower is the Tower of London which is sited on the south-western
corner of the Boro that is called Tower Hamlets. Apart from that link,
the Tower of London isn’t really part of the main statistical data that has
come into the public, even inquiries, domain.
It is the English borough with the highest rates and incidents of Poverty.
So how come that the Poverty of Tower Hamlets, the London Borough, doesn’t get
in the main news that appears about the same area?

Keith Vaz will not probe RotherHamlets on Tuesday at the Home Affairs Committee

RotherHamlets

How to stop another Rotherham: by telling the truth about Tower Hamlets

Asian Gangsters mass rape, pimp and abuse 1400 girls in Rotherham! Is that true? How true is it that the Asian Gangers were not seen when they grew into gangsters monsters? Were their neighbourhoods asleep? Were their parents, neighbours asleep? Or were the gangsters given criminal licence by the authorities TO BECOME the nightmare criminals that they did become?

Cyber-autonomy: A Tactical Approach to Media

31-08-2014 14:00 | Indymedia | World

Public debate on digital media tends to be organised in “either-ors.” Such polarisation allows for clarifying positions, but it doesn’t do justice to the messy dynamics of everyday digital practice. Paolo Gerbaudo’s recent contribution on internet activism in OT24 is no exception. He contrasts what he calls a “cyber separatist strategy” allegedly pursued by veterans of the anti-globalisation movement with “occupying the digital mainstream,”

http://theoccupiedtimes.org/?p=12853 which he sees as a more inclusive and forward-looking strategy adopted by contemporary tech activists.

This is What Democracy Looks Like! : The Fight For The Can Vies Social Centre

n May Barcelona was shook by four days of rioting and protest against the eviction of an established social centre, Can Vies.

Juana Belén Gutiérrez de Mendoza looks at the history of the building, and interviews the organisers currently fighting its eviction.

Self organised social centre (Centre social autogestionat) Can Vies has been a space for radical politics and community organising for 17 years. It’s been a place where different generations of activists can meet and learn from each other, where hundreds of people have learnt to be a part of a community, participating in the assembly with consensus decision making and collective responsibility.

DWP unravelling - UK Neo Cons breaking laws, suppressing due process

The UK DWP is unravelling - the UK Neo Cons CONDEM regime has been breaking laws, suppressing due process daily. Following Denis Skinner drawing attention at a 2013 PMQs to the Cameron-fronted regime driving the vulnerable and the seriously ill to their deaths, a momentary state of shock prevailed. That appears to have been ‘sedated’ by the ferocious PR by Fleet Street tabloids reinforcing their attacks on the low income, the no-income groups and of course ton the sick, the very sick.....
