The Hotwire #30: May Day 2018 Roundup

Informações:

Synopsis

Our annual roundup of worldwide May Day actions. We have interviews with participants in May Day actions in Puerto Rico, where there was a general strike, and Paris, whose black bloc didn’t only take the cake, they took the whole damn bakery! Indonesia saw black blocs erupt all over the country, and now a wave of politically-motivated arrests there are targeting anarchists. In the USA, opposition to ICE and deportations was one clear theme, and the calls for decentralized actions did yield some spikey vandalism in the Pacific Northwest. We also have a short update about what’s happening at La ZAD. {May 3, 2018}   -------SHOW NOTES------   Table of Contents: Introduction {0:00} The importance of supporting anarchist media {2:00} Worldwide May Day headlines {3:40} Interview: Paris May Day {10:50} Interview: ZAD update {18:10} North America May Day headlines {22:50} Interview: May Day general strike in Puerto Rico {32:50} Repression Roundup and Next Week’s News {40:00} Download 29:30 minutes long version
