Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5Just curious how many people showed up - 30-40?
Thanks, Jaded, nice report.
In reply to Counter, there were a lot more people than that. I'd say more than 100 took part in one way or another, and even more passed through over the weekend. One of the organisers might have a better idea of numbers.
Tour of Dolphin's Barn Community Garden, part of the Grassroots Gathering timetable
Delicious vegan food being served by Seomra Spraoi People's Kitchen
As a follow up to a call from the Grassroots Gathering Alister (Seoma Spraoi), Eoin (Campaign to Legalise Cannabis) Ciaron (Catholic Worker/Ploughshares), Apologies Mark (WSM) met to explore an organisational form in the wake of the Anti-Authoritarian Assemblies
A network gathering approx every 6 weeks.
*Gathering is primarily for networking, face to face (offline) information sharing, clarification, mutual aid NOT a decision making body ("assembly" might not be the best description for it!)
*aim (minimally) is to get delegates from groups and campaigns (but open to all to attend)
*activist not ideologically driven
*aimed at anarch/librtarian grassroots movment milieux outside of authoritarian left and NGO structutures
groups/ groupings we hope would attend
*explicit anarchist groups - R.A.G (anharcho feminist)., WorkersSolidarity Movement, Catholic Worker
*anarchists involved in ongoing campaigns - Tara, prison solidarity, Rossport, Anti War, Campaign to Legalise Cannabis etc
*counter institutions - Seoma Spraoi, Revolt Video, gig organising, anarcho cyclists (Critical Mass), Food Not Bombs, Commmunity Garden, indymedia. community tv, punk zines etc
*anarchs involved in specific mobilisations eg. Bush visit, Coca Cola sponsored footy matches etc
*outta town anarchs - Belfast, Cork, internationals passing through
*grassroots campaigns if they see it as beneficial - deaths in custody, Colombia Solidarity, Palestinian Solidarity etc
