Glasgow May Day planning meeting
Reposted again from Scottish Indymedia
Help plan this years May Day
Meetings @
Daisy Street Neighbourhood Centre
April 7, 14, 21, 28
6p.m. sharp
This year marks the fortieth anniversary of the spectacular events of the 1968 Paris uprising. May and June of that year saw over 9 million French workers on strike allied with rebelling students of Nanterre and other universities.
May Day itself is of course an international workers holiday in commemoration of the Anarchists executed in Chicago during the struggle for the 8 hour day.
The struggles fought by the workers and students of France and the executed Anarchists of Chicago continue to this day. Capitalism still runs roughshod over the workers of this world, it destroys our environment and turns our homes, the towns and cities where we live into glass fronted temples of greed fit only to shop in. We want a world we can live in. Not where we are a mere source of labour and profit for the wealthy few.
For this reason our May Day celebration and Protest should be bigger and better than ever.
With that in mind and with the fact that the day itself is approaching with considerable alacrity we will be having weekly planning meetings in the Daisy Street neighbourhood centre.
The centre is located in the Govanhill area and is well served by public transport for those who need it.
The following buses go to Victoria road which is near Daisy Street.
5, 12, 34, 44/44A, 66, 121
From Victoria road find the Pandora pub and walk down Calder street beside it. Walk past the Govanhill Baths and then the library. Daisy Street is on the right and the neighbourhood centre is on the right.
There is also the Queens Park train station which is very close. Exit the station onto victoria road and turn left. After a few minutes walk you will see the Pandora pub on the right hand side of the road.
The meetings will be held on the 7,14,21 and 28 of April and will begin at 6 p.m. prompt.
