Riseup! Radio 17: Struggle in Our Cities

Riseup! Radio Crew | 07.11.2008 00:00 | Nottinghamshire

Can you believe the weather? In this first June installation, we cover a jolly folk dance day that happened in Forest Fields on perhaps the only rainy weekend of last month. Nevertheless, lots of people, music and dance, with a tastefully anti-authoritarian undercurrent.

We're also hanging out at the occupied JB Spray factory building, where we talk about squatting and the dangers of racist party the BNP's election campaigning. And we go 'daan sarf' to meet some rather motivated city folk, who claim to be in the process of setting up no fewer than eleven workers' co-ops one one estate!

It’s June, and guess what? Riseup’s going twice monthly! Here’s part one featuring the forest fields folk dance day, recent nottingham squat activity some mayday clips and an excert from the radical routes conference in London. Part two is due out on the 15th.
