A proposito di NEFAC-US, UCL e di Solidarit�
Gli amici ed i compagni della NEFAC hanno saputo nel novembre 2008 della formazione della Union Communiste Libertaire (UCL) in Quebec. La UCL si inscrive all'interno di un "lungo processo riformatore" della NEFAC. Inoltre, un altro gruppo, Solidarit�, si � formato sulla base di quella che prima era la NEFAC-Quebec. Dopo questi avvenimenti, molti si sono chiesti che cosa ne era della NEFAC delle origini. [http://www.anarkismo.net/article/13582]

[anarchistnews.org] Fight for the right to party

Newsbot — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 03:50:10 GMT

From - by Tim Guest

For a brief moment, at vast and lawless raves such as Castlemorton, a generation glimpsed an alternative way of life. Speaking to survivors of the early 90s free party scene, Tim Guest tells the story of how the state crushed the dream

On 19 April 1992 - Easter Sunday - Spiral Tribe, a self-described "rag-tag sound system group who came together driven by the will to keep the party going", who had been running free raves with a mobile rig across the UK since 1990, set up in a warehouse in Acton Lane, west London. To a packed house, they partied through the night. In the early hours, police officers from the Metropolitan Police's Territorial Support Group, a specialist division with duties including crowd control, surrounded the building. Those who tried to enter or leave had to face the TSG (the same group responsible for heavy-handed policing of crowds in the recent G20 demonstrations). According to witnesses at Acton Lane, some TSG were masked and had their ID numbers covered. The Spirals and partygoers barricaded the doors, but after a 10-hour stand-off, the police revved up a JCB and broke through the outer wall. Scores of ravers later alleged they were beaten in the dark of the warehouse; witnesses claim one pregnant woman was knocked to the ground. One man who tried to escape over the roof claimed to have been pushed; he fell two storeys breaking both arms and legs. No charges were brought. The next day a police helicopter escorted the Spiral Tribe convoy, 10 vehicles long, out of the London area.

Simone, one of the original Spiral Tribe members, who had fallen into the free party scene years before after working in a PA hire shop in north London, recalls: "Everyone who was there remembers exactly what happened. Being forced down on to muddy floors, being battered. It was a horrible experience. read more
