Border Social Forum (Juarez, Chihuahua Mexico)

Border Social Forum
October 13-15, 2006
Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico

What is the Social Forum?

The Social forum was first organized in Brazil as a response and alternative to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland organized by the G-8 nations. Here the richest countries share and develop strategies for the globalization of capitalism. Starting in 2001, the World Social Forum was organized in Brazil the first three years, in India and last year it was poli-centered in Mali, Pakistan and Venezuela. In January 2007 the World Social Forum will be held for the first time in the continent of Africa in Kenya.

Zombie Dance Party - homeland security threat?!

Invent a DIY portable sound-system backpack for your Zombie Dance Party protest and get thrown in jail and put on the "homeland security list"? Yet another crackdown on political artists and creative resistance... Fucking ridiculous...

from infoshop.org

Aiming for a playful protest against the American obsession with shopping, seven youths danced down Nicollet Mall on Saturday, July 22, around 8 p.m. Faces painted ghoulish white and black, they wore backpacks outfitted with clearly visible speakers playing music, calling themselves the “Zombie Dance Party.” They inspired some passersby to join them...

Jones is slender and tall, with dredlocks framing her delicate features. She’s fascinated with electronics and sustainable DIY permaculture. She invented the musical backpacks as a lightweight, mobile sound system...

“When we got to the 1st Precinct, Sergeant Ed Nelson said, ‘I don’t give a goddamn about your f—king constitutional rights!’ That’s when things got nasty,” she pauses. “Later he said ‘If I see you with wires coming out of your backpack, we’re ordered to shoot you in the back of the head.’ I couldn’t help but think of that Brazilian electrician that police shot in London when he was just going to work on the subway.”

“Even the Bomb Squad guy called our backpacks ‘slick.’ As for the idea of them being seen as weapons, he said ‘That’s ridiculous!’ But, while we were in the 1st Precinct holding cell, I overheard someone say to put us on the Homeland Security list. Sergeant Nelson said he was going to teach us a lesson.”

Excellent article: Autonomous Politics and its Problems

One of the clerest, most articulate critiques I've read in a long time about autonomous and radical politics and its failings. While the end is a bit too focused, imho, on using the state to effect change, the first half is amazing. It's also based on experience with Autonomous movements in Argentina and Mexico. Oh, and it talks about the Soviets as a model without pointing out that the Soviets ordered Anarchists to be executed.

Anyone working on creating networks of movements or thinking seriously about stratgies for "winning" against capitalism should really read this.
