Anti-Capitalist Call for Action Against the World Economic Forum

From January 31st to February 4th the World Economic Forum is having its meeting in New York City. The World Economic Forum is an annual meeting of the most important businessman, government officials, media CEOs and intellectuals of the world. It's a big anual party where influential global leaders meet to discuss the destiny of the planet. This rendezvous usually happens once a year at the cold montains of Davos, Switzerland. This year, however, in order to avoid protest from direct action groups, organizers had the brillant idea of transfering it to New York City. They think that New York is still under shock and under the effect of the September 11 attacks and that that would give them a safeguard against anti-capitalist protests. They got it wrong.

In New York and in other cities throughout the world, direct action groups are planning protests. Why not in Porto Alegre?

Some individuals active in the People's Global Action network who will be at Porto Alegre invite interested and good hearted people for a moment of joy and direct action. Instead of following the well behaved and "oficcious" World Social Forum march, why don't you join us for an autonomous and direct action journey, by the rhythm of a gracious argentinian tango? Bring your pans, spoons and, just for precaution, your gas mask and helmet. Bikes and soccer balls are welcome too. If you are already in Porto Alegre, why not use this opportunity to build autonomous spaces and show what we can do when we are self managing affairs?

Meet us at the Youth Camp at the World Social Forum, January the 31st, at noon. Follow the sound of the drums and look for the weirdos.

Sincerely,

Rebels lost in Porto Alegre

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
