25 – 25 of July 2021 Hambacher forest
During the pandemic many people started to think that online-activism is the best way of resisting…
The Hambacher Forest is a long-standing autonomous zone fighting the biggest opencast coalmine in so-called Europe. Meet us here this summer for a weekend of exchanging knowledge on the topic of direct action for animal liberation.
Many animal rights groups have become a hotbed for fascist/patriarchal/transphobic/homophobic/white-suprematist views and behaviors. Others offer a smug vegan capitalism promising to save the world if only we change our consumption habits. At this event we want to appeal to our comrades and not the masses: this is a space for like-minded individuals to share skills and perspectives on anti-speciesist struggles, outside and against bureaucratic campaigns and organizations, uncompromising in our rejection of the state, capitalism and all forms of oppression.
No liberal campaigning or protesting. No pacifist cop-hugging. No saviour complex “rescuing”. It’s time to meet, plan and make trouble!
A list of workshops will be soon announced. They will mostly be practical, along with broader discussions on animal liberation strategy. (You are also warmly invited to propose/provide your own!)
Pack your sleeping bag, get a ride, and join us in July!
