Anarchist People of Color World Wide (Affiliated & Unaffiliated) Counter-Hegemonic Clarion Call for the G-20 Protest
We see RACE. It fucking matters. If we do not destroy it, it will destroy us. We're at WAR!!!
It is an undeniable fact that Africans, Asians, and Latinos bare the brunt of historical and present day genocide in various forms. The brutal rape and land theft Amerikka was founded on leaves us with one choice: a mutifaceted war of liberation.
In the face of abject destitution and wholesale ethnic and cultural butchering, unequivocal and non-negotiable must be the battle cry for all shades of people of color. The reality is (in occupied Turtle Island/the united snakes and most elsewhere), Arab, African, indigenous and all other non-european people are suffering genocide and warfare on a global scale.
Why & How to Confront the G20 in Pittsburgh
This September’s protests against the G20 summit in Pittsburgh offer a rare strategic opportunity to reassert anarchist struggle in the new era of economic recession, ecological collapse, and liberal government. We’ve prepared a summary of why these demonstrations are important, who is organizing them, what is planned, and how to get involved.
We’ve also designed a poster promoting the unpermitted mass march to downtown Pittsburgh scheduled for Thursday, September 24, which we predict will be the high point of the mobilization.
Radical Students Against the G20
Why Do Twenty Voices Matter More than 6.7 Billion?
The economic disaster of the recent days needs no introduction: mass unemployment, skyrocketing inflation, and non-existent credit markets plague the developed world, while in the global south, the rising cost of food and fuel have led to hunger riots and increased poverty and destitution. According to the United Nations, the number of people currently living on the brink of starvation is nearly 1 billion, the large majority of the hungry being women and children.
A Personal Statement in Regards to the Mobilization Opposing the G20 in Pittsburgh
The intent herein is not just a call to gather in Pittsburgh in opposition to the G20 summit. It is more so one persons desire to help create the conditions that will propel a new wave of participation, excitement and hope. While this is a personal statement, in writing this I hope to engage others that may feel the same way. At best, this note will be passed on to anyone that has interest in strengthening and building a movement that can sustain itself and begin shaping a new world, while taking into account the challenges ahead.
Ten years ago, an energy and enthusiasm swept many of us, including me. For different reasons, a whole lot of people began organizing and defying the alienation and desperation that defined the height of corporate globalization. Instead of utilizing the traditional and accepted channels of change, inspired by movements and heros from the past, we focused on direct forms of organization. Most important, our actions inspired countless people to believe that, what is, does not have to be. That anything given time, strength and action can and has to be created.
