Defend K0pi - Self-organised house in Berlin
On May 8th 2007 the self-governed living and cultural centre K0pi was sold in an auction. By that, one of Berlin's most important house projects is threatened. The end of K0pi would also mean the end of more than 17 years of uncommercial self-organised culture and politics. A fact that will please those in power, for it means the destruction of leftist infrastructure. The large scale nationwide police raid of circa 40 targets and activists connected to the protest against the G8 on May 9th served the same purpose - to paralyse and to spy on anti-capitalist structures. Obviously, the state does not really agree with the struggle against the powers that be. And inevitably, their answer can only be repression. And repression can only intend the following things - to weaken, to divide and to distract from the struggle itself. Everyone of us is meant to mind his/her own fucking repression-issues. But especially now, when the state exceptionally becomes afraid of what we do, it is important to stick together. We have to unify the different struggles of the left and don't let the media divide us into "peaceful" and "violent". Because "violent" is the system that robs us of our resources and our free spaces all around the world. More than 100 people would become homeless with the eviction of the K0pi and the trailer park next to it. Therefore the eviction has to be prevented by all means. The struggle for the K0pi and the one against the G8 are inseperably connected to each other. Both of them are based on one essential demand - A society free of exploitation and suppression.
Join us for an international demonstration in Berlin the 16th of June, 2pm Adenauer Platz
Against G8 repression - K0pi stays risk-capital!
If you cannot make the demo cause trouble for the capitalist system where you are! The fight is not over yet!
