Homes Not Jails march with anti bin tax campaigners to Mountjoy Prison tonight

dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | press release

Monday September 22, 2003 12:50

by dearg - homes not jails

Report this post to the editors

Meet at Garden Of Remembrance on Parnell Square at 7.30pm.

Homes Not Jails will be marching this evening at 7.30pm with the anti bin tax campaigners to Mountjoy Prison.

HNJ is an organisation that encourages direct action for people to take over abandoned buildings for places to live.

We are also opposed to the building of prisons; as anarchists we are opposed to the idea of incarceration as a means of punishment.

Homes are more than just a building - they are a place where family and friends provide support networks to encourage human interaction. They enrich and encourage life.

Prisons also manifest themselves in other forms - such as factories or offices. They promote mental as well as physical confinement. Prisons are part of the massive capitalist system that seeks to enslave the human spirit.

Homes are places that should strive to break the chains of oppression of power.

We invite all autonomous anti-capitalists and anarchists to join in with us on the march to Mountjoy Prison tonight.

Keep an eye out for the Homes Not Jails banner.
