Events in London this week

anon@indymedia.org (London Indymedia) | 15.08.2010 21:22 | London

Every week in London you can see film, music, talks, workshops and organisational meetings, a myriad of ways for everyone to get involved and engage with a radical london that you may only ever otherwise hear about when the G20 comes to town, or in subtle subvertising campaigns as you pass through London's daily avenues of corporate control.

Look to the right of London Indymedia front page and you will find many events listed from all sorts of radical, non-corporate, social promoters.

This Monday, with WIKI leaks about to leak more war files, it might be a good chance to get a global catch up with a film screening of 'Big Noise Dispatches 6' at Pogo Cafe in Hackney. From the makers of 'Fourth World War', Big Noise Films have spent the last 15 years putting cameras on the ground on the other side of the military and media machine, and Since 2004 Pogo Cafe has been providing delicious vegan food and space for positive alternatives to the unyielding dominance of mainstream capitalist culture.
Event.

On Tuesday over at LARC, 'What does it mean to grow up?' a real one off event that promises to be fun and thought provoking, "What does it mean to be socially responsible? How does age affect how we understand our relationship to politics? Are activists that don't remember their history doomed to repeat it? And what exactly does it mean to 'grow up'?". LARC is a collectively run building providing space and resources, include meeting-space, library, shared offices, a roofgarden, banner and prop-making space and an action information area.
Event.

Wednesday evening is a night for 'Beautiful South', a fundraiser in Brixton's 'gloriously lowdown, coolfuck venue', The Windmill, with a load of live music and DJs, for the launch of a brand new autonomous free-of-charge south London newspaper. We can't wait!
Event.


Thursday, what looks to be another interesting discussion, back up to Hackney at 195 Mare st, 'Debate on subtle discrimination in Squats', hmmm....! All summer 195 Mare St collective has been offering a community resource in the second oldest house in Hackney and a Grade II listed building.
Event.


Friday is party night at 'The Red & Black Club' at LARC, a social event, once a month, for anarchists, libertarians and radicals to socialise, meet, drink, plot and conspire in a relaxed atmosphere and good humour.
Event.

And if your still in the mood on Saturday, the 'No Sweat Fest' all dayer, at 195 Mare St, Hackney, brings what is in all reality a mini music festival! check out the list of acts, does 195 Mare St have the space for them all? Well, it was originally a mansion for rich merchants in 1699, the year of its construction, and most recently a bank! so maybe it does have a room or two....
Event.


And after all the partying, why not join our comrades for some Sunday tea with the queen!

What ever you do, where ever you are, enjoy your week, and keep London Indymedia up-to-date with your reports, reviews, and views. In solidarity with all our struggles. See you on the streets!
