Libertarian Days 20.-22. April Düsseldorf

libertaria | 06.04.2001 22:17

From the 20th to 22nd of April 2001 there will be
"Libertarian Days" and an anarchist demo taking place
in Duesseldorf, Germany.

Our recent forms of protest have been in general dictated by the need to fight against existing power structures and fascism. We wait eagerly for the next big action, an IMF meeting or a nuclear transport, to have a decent chance to really annoy the State again. Not enough! We feel that a mere reaction to the social status quo is only a start. There is too little real discussion of our own positions, and at the same time the
strengths of our ideas for society are hardly noticed outside our own scene.

Capitalism claims that history is over; parliamentary, representative democracy is sold as the only viable form of social organisation. Fascism tries to offer simplistic solutions and scapegoats for the dissatisfied population. In contrast, we as anarchists seek the complete self-empowerment of individuals in a society based on solidarity, and are attacked by all the power-oriented and hierachical structures such as State, Church and Capital because of it.
Our immediate goal should be - as well as reacting to the intolerable - to show the wider world the advantages of an anarchist society. The "Libertarian Days" are based on this idea, and offer a forum in which we can share our Utopias with the outside world, network existing and future projects, discuss our ideas and have fun.
We look forward to - and count on! - your creative support and
involvement. (Info and action stands, ideas for the rally, posters, leaflets, and so on...). If you are interested, just phone us at the
