Houston Texas // We Are an Image from the Future U.S.A. Tour 2010
It was a cold night in Houston... The Sedition Books infoshop invited members from many different collectives and many wonderfull people came in our event. Peter Gelderloos did a specified analysis of the illusionary nature of Democracy during his "Overthrowing Bourgeois Democracy" lecture. Void Optical Art Lab. artists created an abstract art environment for the talk. The night continued with a long open talk between Void Network and Houston activists about the social insurrection in Greece. After the end of the event we met all different people introduce us to the local struggles, initiatives and active groups of the city featuring some amazing Mexican commrades, some very active American-Greek women and many other passionate commrades.Among all participated groups, "Straight Up Distro", strives to make widely available news, books, videos and music from revolutionary movements all around the world. People from Students for a Democratic Society from University of Houston participated in the talk and made some announcements about future demonstration in the area.
Links of all other groups that participated in the public dialogue about Greek social insurrection can offer you a wide perspective about the political map of movements in Houston Texas area.Of course many many of the local movements can not appear in this catalogue here:
