News, Jul 17th
Kicking off with the Fast Forward Festival,
people hoping to get involved with different
politics, build up alternative ways of living and
fight for the climate with direct action have a
full two months of political festivals ahead.
----------
Fast Forward
organised by Plan C
July 19th-21st
Thornbridge Estate, Derbyshire
<http://festival.weareplanc.org/>Details
With just a couple of days to go the festival of
political thinking is pretty full and booking has
<https://www.facebook.com/fastforwardfestivaluk/photos/a.644713592231768/1804554512914331/?type=3&theater>officially
ended, but theres still the possibility of day
tickets and you might get lucky if you send in
with a particularly charming ask.
The big get-together for Plan C, an
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomism>autonomist-inspired
group with clusters in several major cities,
Fast Forward is a family-friendly camp over three
days with dozens of workshops, arts and space for kids.
Red feminism has a particular place at this
years get-together, covering topics from
reproductive justice and bodily autonomy, through
a look at Womens Strike 2019, far-right hatred
of womens bodies and decriminalising sex work.
Ecology, collectivity and how/when/if to engage
with State structures are also on the slate for
talks, and in the evenings there will be music and partying galore.

Power Beyond Borders
organised by Reclaim The Power
July 26th-31st
South-East England
<https://reclaimthepower.org.uk/actions/power-beyond-borders-2019/power-beyond-borders/>Details
<https://www.facebook.com/ReclaimThePower/photos/pcb.1918941631538931/1918939301539164/?type=3&theater>Subvertising
from the Special Patrol Group
This direct action-oriented gathering is standing
up against new gas powered power stations and for
migrants against the Hostile Environment. The
family-friendly space will have plenty of kids
activities, workshops, trainings and
entertainment. Its more of a pitch-in
philosophy, and everyone is encouraged to help
with things like putting up tents, cleaning and
general site maintenance. Entry is by donation
and various buses are heading up from London,
Brighton, Leeds, Sheffield, Bristol, Norwich, Edinburgh
A full programme for the five days has recently
<https://reclaimthepower.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Programme-Power-Beyond-Borders.pdf>gone
up at their website, starting with an evening
plenary on fossil fuel monster Drax and featuring
some great sessions on running effective direct
actions. The focus of this festival tends to be
on ground floor non-violent direct action for the
environment, but also has a wider remit which
sees workshops taking place about a broad range
of topics from prison abolition to Rojava solidarity.
----------
RR Summer Gathering
Organised by Radical Routes
August 9th-11th
Wild Peak Housing Co-op near Belper, Derbyshire
<http://radicalroutes.org.uk/the-next-gathering.html>Details
[]
The long-running networks summer meet is the
most focused of the summer gatherings, as it aims
primarily at helping people and groups to set up
their own radical housing co-operatives.
The three-day event can be quite intensive for
newcomers, as it involves a lot of catching up on
the events of the last six months, organising of
the network itself, strategising and in some
cases, working through the nitty gritty of home loans.
That being so, its generally recommended that if
youre going, make sure you have a clear idea of
what you want to get out of the event, and
ideally talk to some of the many
<http://radicalroutes.org.uk/list-of-members/housing-co-ops.html>existing
housing co-op people about what it can offer (the
answer is a lot, as theres a huge amount of
expertise and support available, but only if youre serious).
As with Reclaim The Power, Radical Routes runs a
pitch-in mentality, so tidying up after yourself
and generally mucking in is strongly encouraged.

'From South America, where payment must be made with subtlety, the
Bormann organization has made a substantial contribution. It has
drawn many of the brightest Jewish businessmen into a participatory
role in the development of many of its corporations, and many of
these Jews share their prosperity most generously with Israel. If
their proposals are sound, they are even provided with a specially
dispensed venture capital fund. I spoke with one Jewish businessmen
in Hartford, Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown several
years before our conversation, but with Bormann money as his
leverage. Today he is more than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the
community with a certain share of his profits earmarked as always for
his venture capital benefactors. This has taken place in many other
instances across America and demonstrates how Bormann's people
operate in the contemporary commercial world, in contrast to the
fanciful nonsense with which Nazis are described in so much "literature."
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish participation in Bormann
companies that when Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the Jewish and German
communities of Buenos Aires. Jewish leaders informed the Israeli
authorities in no uncertain terms that this must never happen again
because a repetition would permanently rupture relations with the
Germans of Latin America, as well as with the Bormann organization,
and cut off the flow of Jewish money to Israel. It never happened
again, and the pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an Argentinian safe haven,
protected by the most efficient German infrastructure in history as
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.'
