Anti-g8 village in lausanne

wirewire | 14.05.2003 16:25 | Evian G8

Starting on the 24th May, a village against capitalism and patriarcate will be built in Lausanne. Its goal is to receive, lodge, feed and inform the demonstrators who will come to our area the week that precedes the 8 tyrants-meeting.

Welcome and hospitality aren't really representative of this region…. Palaces and other big luxurious hotels will assume that thing with pleasure for the summit-participants. All the Civil-protection shelters are booked for police. The city will be blocked and finally, the only welcome imagined by the authorities is… cops. 40 millions of swiss francs are used for security during the G8-summit.

We think that this summit is totally unlawful, we don't want it here, neither in another place. We exact it to stop. Everyone is called to take actively part in its dissolution. Facing their faces, we will gather in a festive, creative and resoluted way. We're not only going to stroll about the streets, denouncing our nightmares, we'll enjoy to be together, making our dreams come true. An appeal is sent for the construction of a village in Lausanne. A village of resistance against capitalism, patriarcate, racism, integrism, fascism, pollution, starvation all around the world. For the animal liberation. For a simple way of life, in RESPECT of beings, Earth, Water, for a dividing of ressources for All. The experience of "c'village" is going to be a real carrying out of our ideas and practices. Its success is based on everyone's willing, willing to put a lot into activities and collective works that are necessary for the autonomy of a place set for thousands of people.

Appeal for support :

appeals for support shall be diffused as largely as possible to anyone - people, collectives - that could bring us their assistance
