From the UK National Squatters Meet-up in Bristol way back in March a callout was released for people involved in squats and autonomous spaces. It encouraged 2 days of direct action on the 18th and 19th September 2009 around housing and the creation of more autonomous spaces at this time of crisis. Now we're in September and the days are approaching...
Bristol Co-Mutiny
Squats & Autonomous Spaces
Key Party Front
Key Party Back
THE ORIGINAL CALLOUT...
As the global economy grinds to a halt so too do the big capital development projects, luxury apartment blocks and shopping complexes that have threatened us with displacement for so long. Meanwhile, this new round of crisis capitalism leaves thousands out of work, buried in debt and facing immanent home repossession. Instead of housing the homeless in these empties or canceling the debts of millions governments pump billions into the banks to save this rotten system and violently repress those that resist.
As a movement we have been on the back-foot for too long – now its time to start taking things back – to kick capitalism while its down and liberate the land from privatised enclosure; to take housing and create space where we can live outside of monetary exchange, share skills acquired through struggle thus far and reach out beyond our practiced modes of resistance to a proactive attack.
From Dijon to Berlin to the thousands of places where actions took place in defence of squats and autonomous spaces in April 2008 a process has begun, new groups have formed, networks grown, and more people have become involved. As a movement we recognise that power and domination must be contested at multiple sites – this is beauty of our mode of struggle and why we call for decentralised, coordinated and confrontational action on the on the 18th & 19th of September 2009.
