> BAILIFF RESISTANCE, STREET DEMO, FREE GIG

> Enjoyed sticking it to the man at Jesters last week? The Black Cat
> Social Centre on Lower Bristol Road in Bath is due for eviction this
> Friday 26th March. This eviction will be resisted. In addition from
> 9.48am there will be a street demo with free acoustic music provided by
> the fabulous Madame Hatter with special guests The Bailiffs (due onstage
> at 10am). Blank text to 07529579130 to receive updates.

> TAKE ACTION – SAVE THE BLACK CAT COMMUNITY SOCIAL CENTRE
> 
> For five months the Black Cat Community Centre has been providing a
> free, inclusive space for community events. It has hosted open mic
> nights, poetry sessions, yoga and dance classes, debt advice centres,
> meetings and many more events based upon demand and all free of charge –
> all have been keenly taken up by the people of Bath. This project is run
> by full-time volunteers using abandoned buildings otherwise going to
> waste. The council, in its infinite wisdom, has decided that this kind
> of blatant altruism and community solidarity must come to an end before
> the people start expecting the council to provide a decent service, and
> as such are sending bailiffs in to evict us so that the Riverside
> Studios may once again stand empty gathering dust.
> 
> THE BLACK CAT NEEDS YOU!
> 
> The first eviction attempt is expected this Friday 26nd March at
> 10:00am. We WILL be resisting this eviction attempt. This is OUR
> community and we should not be afraid to stand as the people against
> power-hungry politicians, fatcats, cops and bailiffs. From 9.48am there
> will be a street demo with free acoustic music provided by the fabulous
> Madame Hatter with special guests The Bailiffs (due onstage at 10am).
> This is a call to the people of Bath and beyond to stand tall with the
> Black Cat Collective. To receive updates and the all-important eviction
> alert please send a blank text to 07529 579 130.
> 
> YOU DON'T HAVE TO GET ARRESTED TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT
> 
> A large crowd outside the building demanding that the centre be allowed
> to remain sends a very strong message to the council. There are also
> many vital non-arrestable street roles including:
> 
> Grabbing supplies
> Arrestee Support
> Legal Observer
> Media Liaison
> Making lots of noise
> Bringing all your mates
> Bringing all your cameras / fitwatch
> 
> If you wish to get involved in any way, please come knock on our red
> front door! Unit 3A, former Riverside Business Park, Lower Bristol Road,
> Bath, BA2 3DW.
