03-04-2009 02:11

Street dancing within the first minute of camp
For twelve hours, a narrow granite and concrete crevice in the city, normally swilling in dirty money was transformed into a ribbon of colour and music.

After the recent demos against meeting the G20 and the obvious failure this shindig will have in shoring up capital racked by crisis, it's good to make the connection between other people in struggle and the yesterdays struggle on the streets.
