The CEOs are coming, the CEOS are coming to Chicago
November 7th & 8th, let's give them a WARM hello. |
Here in Chicago we are organizing against the Trans Atlantic Business Dialogue, thanks to some encouragement by the sensationalism of the capitalist mass media. One of the first big anti-corporate globalization events to happen here in Chicago.
We wacky anarchists, anti-globalists, artists, protesters, labor activists, environmentalists, culture jammers, south-siders, punk rockers, hip-hoppers, mimes, vegans and other concerned citizens are planning a party for the Trans Atlantic Business Dialogue. You know the corporate creeps over at www.tabd.org. They are meeting November 7th & 8th, in the gentrified downtown area.
We have a spokescouncilstyle meeting planned for October 13th 4-7pm at the Agape House 1046 W. Polk here in Chicago. It is by the UIC campus, within walking distance of the Halsted UIC blue line stop.
We have a website up and are planning for a massive protest. Many of the tactics to be employed have not even been envisoned yet, but there are glimmers of creative civil disobedience, culture jamming, and non-violent disruptions that are sure to let the business men know that we aren't going to let them parade around in our working class city as if they own the place.
