So that was it. We had ‘our’ moment, ‘our’ J18. March 26th was the day that the emerging anti-austerity movement had been waiting for, and there were certainly parallels (both political and aesthetic) to the heydays of the ‘movement of movements’, as little as 10 years ago, when black-clad anarchists turned their backs on the marches of global justice coalitions to smash the windows of McDonald’s, Starbucks and luxury hotels.

28-04-2011 08:57

This is a roughcut of a short film looking at what happened in Stokes Croft Bristol at the beginning of the bank holiday. We have decided to put it up as a public roughcut as there does not seem to be an independent (i.e. non mainstream) account of what happened and why it happened (and it will take a few days to finish it).  http://vimeo.com/22968797
