Bristol Indymedia has taken the decision to cease operating as it currently does not have the capacity to maintain the site due to a lack of volunteers and to also rethink how to take the project forward. If you wish to get involved with Bristol Indymedia then please get in touch using the contact form here and we will contact you once we have arranged a meeting date. We are putting on a film night that discusses the past, present and future of Indymedia, you could also come along to that and meetup with us. Thanks for being patient with us, hopefully we will be back in a new and improved form later this year.

September 11th 2013 marks the 40th anniversary of the 1973 military coup that replaced Chile’s democratically-elected socialist government, led by President Salvador Allende, with the dictatorship of General Augusto Pinochet. Backed by the US military, Pinochet’s army bombed the Presidential Palace, murdered Allende and took power. Following the coup, more than 200,000 Chileans fled the country, many for Europe. Of those that remained, tens of thousands more were tortured and murdered for their political beliefs. For this event we have teamed up with ‘Chile 40 Years On’, a network of exiled Chileans coordinating commemorative events across the UK in association with the UK Chilean Solidarity Campaign. We will be introducing a (very) rare screening of La Spirale (1974) a documentary written by Chris Marker and directed by Armand Mattelart, Jacqueline Meppiel and Valerie Mayoux. - Wednesday September 11th, 2013 - Arc Bar, 27 Broad Street (doors open 19.30) - £3 (but no one turned away for lack of funds)
