Collective and Individual Trauma after g20 shock
empowered | 10.04.2009 11:11 | G20 London Summit | Health | Repression | Social Struggles
I wanted to share some resources to help heal after the police brutality on the streets and at the convergence centres. Also a call to those who were there (or have had negative feelings if your were not there but stuff came up) to take good care of each other, ask for help and someone to listen.
The shock tactics of the police (the states army) had a reason, to oppress us from taking action and protesting for social change.
