From August 16th-19th, the National Governors' Association, consisting of the governors of all 50 states and U.S. colonies, will be convening in Indianapolis. The conference will culminate on the 19th with a visit from "our" President, George W. Bush. |
Whomever they elect, we are ungovernable! Smash the NGA!
From August 16th-19th, the National Governors' Association, consisting of the governors of all 50 states and U.S. colonies, will be convening in Indianapolis. The conference will culminate on the 19th with a visit from "our" President, George W. Bush. The governors will be meeting behind closed doors with members of their "Corporate Fellows Program" to cooridinate policy decisions on a range of topics from education to the environment to the economy.
We will be there to say no the governors' pandering to corporate interests and the obvious lack of accountability to the communities that they purport to represent. Furthermore, we will aim to challenge the legitimacy of their positions and the system that they represent.
With these aims in mind, we are working to collaborate with a variety of communities to make this convergence a success. While we intend to do serious work to make this a regional event which will be of real value to the growth of the anarchist movement, our main emphasis will be on doing grassroots outreach in our city. We encourage other collectives and groups throughout the Midwest to make a similar outreach effort to build for this convergence, as well as all events. We hope that the protests over the course of these days will feature a representative sample of those peoples fucked over by the NGA, its corporate taskmasters, and similar rackets.
This is only a preliminary call. It will be followed soon by more details on the NGA, this conference, the convergence, and our schedule of spokescouncils, workshops, protests, etc. Please spread the word and get in touch with us- your input, suggestions, and ideas for autonomous action will be much appreciated at this stage of planning. -Germinal Collective
