Abusive and oppressive behaviour will not be tolerated.<br /><br />BYOB for social afterwards in the new Glasgow Social Centre (GSC) space.<br /><br />Meeting hosted by Glasgow AFed with assistance and cooperation from other individuals. We are especially happy to be hosting Lindela in the new GSC, which is open every Tuesday and Friday evening. More details on their website linked below.<br /><br />---<br /><br />Lindela Figlan was born in Flagstaff in Pondoland in 1970 what was then the Transkei bantustan. His father, a mineworker, had been a militant in the Pondo revolt of 1960. Lindela was politically active in high school and continued to be involved in politics when he moved to the shanty towns of Durban in 1998 to work as a security guard.<br /><br />He joined Abahlali baseMjondolo when the movement was formed in 2005. What excited him most about Abahlali baseMjondolo was the idea, on which the movement was founded, that poor people should think for themselves rather than always relying on other people to think for them. Lindela has held various elected positions in the movement and is currently its Deputy President. He has been subject to serious and ongoing intimidation as a result of his political work with Abahlali baseMjondolo.<br /><br />Lindela is very critical of trade unions arguing that “there to exploit. It is a double exploitation – we are exploited by the bosses at the companies and then we are also exploited by the union bosses.” His politics is based on a commitment to immediate equality. He says that: “The only thing that I believe is that all people are equal. No matter where you come from, no matter how you look, no matter how poor you are or what your gender is we are all equal. Abahlali baseMjondolo has trust in the people. The movement insists that everyone must be respected no matter who they are. That is why I joined Abahlali baseMjondolo. It is not wise to think that somebody else must think for your future. In Abahali baseMjondolo everybody is equal.<br /><br />Everybody joined the movement to emancipate themselves from oppression and the difficulties of the world. You do not join Abahali baseMjondolo for someone else to emancipate you.”<br /><br />There is a fuller biography online at: http://abahlali.org/node/9214TsK!http://www.blogger.com/profile/00802498935211839336noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756349633874349618.post-44543575412736620622012-09-10T11:11:00.002-07:002012-09-10T11:11:40.826-07:00GSC launch at Garnethill Multicultural CentreComing up....<br />

"Filmed over nearly three years, WASTE LAND follows renowned artist Vik
Muniz as he journeys from his home base in Brooklyn to his native
Brazil and the world's largest garbage dump, Jardim Gramacho, located on
the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. There he photographs an eclectic band
of “catadores”—self-designate<wbr></wbr><span class="word_break"></span>d
pickers of recyclable materials. Muniz’s initial objective was to
“paint” the catadores with garbage. However, his collaboration with
these inspiring characters as they recreate photographic images of
themselves out of garbage reveals both the dignity and despair of the
catadores as they begin to re-imagine their lives. Director Lucy Walker
(DEVIL’S PLAYGROUND, BLINDSIGHT and COUNTDOWN TO ZERO) and co-directors
João Jardim and Karen Harley have great access to the entire process
and, in the end, offer stirring evidence of the transformative power of
art and the alchemy of the human spirit."<br /> <br /> Empire:<br />
“Beautifully captured, this portrait of a very proud and resourceful
underclass rightly tugged the heartstrings of everyone who saw it.”<br /> <br /> New York Times:<br />
“We are not pickers of garbage; we are pickers of recyclable
materials,” Tião, an impoverished Brazilian catadore, or trash picker,
declares to a talk-show host in Lucy Walker’s inspiring documentary

Sometimes it seems that our city is drowning under the torrential logic
of capital. A councillor’s retirement package amounts to more money
than many of us will make in a working lifetime; private developers and
monopoly landlords gorge on <span class="text_exposed_show">public
assets fed to them by local government; and the ruling parties continue
to propagate the most insulting sound-bite of the current crisis: “We’re
all in this together”. B*llsh*t, we’re not all in this together, the
political, industrial and financial elites are doing very well on our
labour, time and anxieties. <br /> <br /> Stopping the rot starts wherever
we find ourselves. There is no big secret to enacting change. The
knowledge and skills required to end the rule of the few resides within
each of us. Tapping into that knowledge is itself a learning process
that takes place in the here-and-now, not sometime in the future. Our
communities are worth more than any number of pound, euro or dollar
signs. We realise this worth when we come together and share what we
have. This ‘coming together’ is the essence of the Glasgow Social Centre
(GSC).<br /> <br /> From the 10th to the 12th of February, the GSC
invites you to take part in a series of events spanning across the
coming year in various locations around the city. These events, known
as Pop-Up Social Centres, are intended to increase our collective
confidence through sharing our stories and ideas. These events are
intended to produce practical actions that defy the possessive logic of
capitalist greed by creating collective ways of being-in-the-world. </span></div>

The ‘Social’ in
Social Centre is crucial to the ethos of the social centre movement. Theatre,
poetry, music, dance and roller-skating discos: we use these mediums to tell
our stories of love, adventure and resistance; we use these mediums to imagine
new ways of being-in-the-world; and we use these mediums to simply make an arse
of ourselves. </div>

Saturday is about
roller-skating, food and fighting capitalism. Saturday is about coming along to
share a song, a joke, a story, some cake, a recipe; or a piece of utterly
useless information about clocks, owls, coat hangers or sand paper. If, for the
time being, you’d like to hold on to such particulars, then that’s fine too:
your company is more than enough. </div>

My mate gave me his
old racer when he bought himself a brand spank’n new Rally Grifter. The racer
is gubbed and in need of some serious attention. On Sunday 12<sup>th</sup>
February at the Pop-Up Social Centre our friends The Glasgow Bike Station are
running a bike maintenance workshop. The winter is particularly harsh on our two-wheeler,
ten-speeder dream machines: pop along for some Tender Lovin Bike Care. I’ll see
you all there with ‘Bullet the Blue Sky’ (that’s my new racers name). </div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: inherit; line-height: 150%; text-align: justify;">
Other friends
will be there too. <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">We </i>will be running a workshop on raised
garden beds. Dominate your vegetable patch without backache. Erect a raised
garden bed on your urban plot and let the worms work their magic. </div>

<div style="font-family: inherit;">
<span style="font-size: 12pt;">Sunday is about skill sharing. It’s about
learning practical stuff with friends. As well as the above, the Glasgow Social
Centre will be putting on an up-cycling workshop where you can learn how to
turn bike tire inner tubes into wallets, purses and maybe even dinner jackets.
There are all sorts of practical and fantastical things you can do with a wee
bit of junk and imagination. We’ll let you what junk to bring over the coming
week. </span></div>

Come! Bring your Friends. Entry free, donations welcome.<br /><br /><br />More information on the artists:<br /><br />Tawona Sithole & Ernest Nyamaropa; These brothers from Zimbabwe clearly have something special you don’t want to miss. Together they sing, and play songs on their Mbiras. Their instruments and their songs are passed down through generations and from their ancestor’s family name Ganyamatope, their music celebrates togetherness. They create a fun comfortable atmosphere where you can join in, and play in the spirit of their music.<br /><br />Trees; create a rush of intense powerful discordant harmonies that then drastically changes direction with peaceful, subtle, calm sounds from where they left off from. Their music is defiantly unpredictable, and their creativeness challenges their performance as a whole. The energy they create disburses out into the audience to leave you with an experience that’s rile something quite special.<br /><br />Tom Snowball; is well known in Glasgow for his performances in the past with Rags & Feathers and dead fly buchowski. He has a Great sense of originality that comes through his emotive uplifting songs.<br /><br />Sultan Alishire; Sultan is from Saudi Arabia he has toured to Helsinki, Oslo, and has played many performances in the UK. He has collaborated with his friends and many well-known artists from East Africa and North Arabia. He’s extremely talented at his instrument “Sulte”. His collaboration with Yusuf Yare and Sada Ali Wasame makes him very important as performer but also as a voice for the African and Arabian people. This is a very special opportunity to see such a respected musician. Jack Thomson will join Sultan on the night combining the performance with percussion.<br /><br />Adam Stearns; The sound he creates solo ad as a group comes from a rich base of 60s pop, folk, psychedelic influences, the music forms a silky cocoon of delicately weaved vocal melodies, punctuated by moments of dazzling harmonic beauty. His inventive yet restrained guitar work is perfectly balanced by quasi-virtuosic strings and the occasional advent of minimal percussion. An unassuming yet rich combination of the freshest musical ingredients makes Stearn’s sound utterly unforgettable . you will be crying out for more!jagnewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08128714888955268026noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756349633874349618.post-13909438468798956532010-12-08T04:01:00.000-08:002010-12-08T04:47:40.044-08:00Winter Solstice Party line up announcedThe Glasgow Social Centre Winter Solstice Party is here!<br /><br />After the success of the last event at the Garnethill Multicultural Centre, we will be returning on Saturday December 18th with another amazing line-up.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU13OC5yqoZcMZuzIsdvpbwxMr52sStyfWBjaW5IEFy-VkBzC8ny-Va2HVxF6T6-xZhEvl1QR4DvWBV6W6MLleE3YFGUwF2Qt0hitP9i6tEfz7XtlMUuIUy2wrY85EPRYQJ9m4q6_Bj7xo/s1600/Winter+Solstice+Party+-+Glasgow+Social+Centre.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 227px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU13OC5yqoZcMZuzIsdvpbwxMr52sStyfWBjaW5IEFy-VkBzC8ny-Va2HVxF6T6-xZhEvl1QR4DvWBV6W6MLleE3YFGUwF2Qt0hitP9i6tEfz7XtlMUuIUy2wrY85EPRYQJ9m4q6_Bj7xo/s320/Winter+Solstice+Party+-+Glasgow+Social+Centre.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5548284087292374706" border="0" /></a><br /><br />*Doors Open 5pm<br />*Food and comedy downstairs from the People's Kitchen and Laugh Out Loud Club 6pm<br />*The infoshop launch<br />*Music upstairs from Jim Macateer, Ceylen and Floura, Kung Fu Mother, BLOCastra and...<br /><br />*The John Langan Band!!!!<br /><br />We're excited already.

For those of you who don't know this is the space we want to move into.<br /><br />This week we were in so our resident architect Fi (pictured) could do drawings of the ground floor and basement to show the council where the new staircase will be. Just one of the hoops that we have to jump through!<br /><br />So after we have these plans in and they are ok'd then we will be getting very close to having a social centre again. We hope that you're all as excited as we are.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQcoFt5b8WZrrYvPJ6G9xhh8-zl1HSgMtVZvl0V6OOX2sPLlqOQCLlCF9RuJldMzEq2axdLR6E23HEX8nPn63Ru8JDTZF0UmjikDqXfbdrd6DiiVzg9LB_pSUvgYSIQkg-OUL9H9lzGgWp/s1600/DSCF0625.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

For those of you who are familiar with Garnett Hill Park it is particularly appropriate for this with its Mayan like pyramid, water garden and amphitheater.<br /><br />The day will be a celebration of community, the park and the fine thought and work that brought it into being, an inspiration for the many community garden and landscaping projects currently emerging and those to come in the future.<br /><br />There will be a pa system set up in the amphitheatre area for music, poets, storytellers etc with dancers, performance artists and all things accoustic at the pyramid. Nothing set in stone,this is the first year for doing this event here so we feel our way and set a precedent for an annual celebration.<br /><br />The idea is that the two spaces be linked by the 'Rainbow Bridge' via the stone staircase and stepping stone water garden. The Rainbow bridge will be processional i.e. made of people using costume ,body paint ,flags ,banners etc and hopefully have a ceremonial element to it....this may involve the planting of a vine!<br /><br />So far we have the 'peoples kitchen' group working on providing free food, a pa system, some materials, and a growing cast of performers and artists plus the debut performance of a locally produced radio play and hopera(!) written by the late Fraser Clarke 'MEGATRIPOLIS@FOREVER' which introduces the concept of TimeDancing!!.....<br /><br />Come along, and get involved.

Great! Here's some more <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">information</span> on what they are all about:<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Food Cooperative Collective</span><br />Help us get people out of the supermarkets and eating healthy food with less packaging! This collective involves sourcing initially dried foods from <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">GreenCity</span> Wholefoods and hopefully vegetables from a local farm at a later date. The dried and wholefoods will be bought in bulk and sold on at low prices with a wee profit to the Glasgow Social Centre.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">People's Kitchen Collective</span><br />Serving free food to <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">people</span> on the street. This process provides a space to talk about how we relate to food, encourages eating together and gets healthy food into hungry mouths.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Film Collective</span><br />Showing radical films and documentaries in interesting spaces around Glasgow.<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /><br /></span>The collectives are being set up now so that they have a running start when we get a space. If you want to be involved in these collectives when we have a space (or don't!), please get stuck in now. See earlier post for contact details.<br /><br />If there is a collective that you would like to start then please come along to our Monday meeting 7pm at the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">CCA</span> to let us know.<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></span>jagnewhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08128714888955268026noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756349633874349618.post-6147507888543511202010-07-15T01:26:00.000-07:002010-07-15T01:28:42.568-07:00Get involved in our CollectivesThe Glasgow Social Centre group are setting up a Food Co-op Collective, People's Kitchen Collective and a Film Collective.

Here’s where we’re at:<br /> <br />First off, there’s a general meeting on <span style="font-weight:bold;">Monday 7th June</span> and you’re all invited! It’s in the electron club upstairs at the CCA on Sauchiehall Street. This is an opportunity for the wider group to feed into some important decisions. We’ll be looking at membership rules, and hopefully deciding on which space to go for!<br /> <br />So we moved out of Osborne Street way back at the start of the year. Since then we have been hunting for spaces around the city. Options have included a huge bingo hall, the old pipe factory, railway arches and some more regular spaces such as record shops. We have spoken to council planners about a couple of spaces and have especially been concentrating on a space on St George’s Road. It’s all very laborious and slow process but we’ll get there!<br /> <br />We’re also registering as a cooperative and hopefully as a charity as well! This will help us get rid of nasty council rates and get lovely funding.<br /> <br />What else have we been doing? We brought the free shop and a sound system to the May Day celebrations on Argyle Street and to Streetland in Govanhill. We’re hoping to work with The Govanhill Community Trust to have an event supporting the reopening of Govanhill baths. A group of us went to the UK Social Centres gathering in Leeds to learn from experience and meet folk from other centres around the country, and last weekend a few people went to Talmh to the Radical Routes gathering.<br /> <br />We’re planning on having a fundraising party soon so if you want to help out with this please come along to the meeting on the 7th of June..<br /> <br />Over and out.<br /> <br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Glasgow Social Centre organisational collective.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1756349633874349618.post-1577570850028212942010-04-29T12:08:00.000-07:002010-04-29T12:21:49.494-07:00MAY DAY FREE SHOP<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfo2RDaQHry8sxvwKR5OGxvbDc-VdjmGqmXC2I-PZsvuVTMOqAPcSvY2kdCFBGl-pCtSEDgpSP4AI4mdTSxkH-jqTcmQkFZt-Q5JuTnILzvUEHZxm1OGyw-__4bB7y_Xzd6iPUQsbpAJ6c/s1600/free_shop_flyer.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 282px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfo2RDaQHry8sxvwKR5OGxvbDc-VdjmGqmXC2I-PZsvuVTMOqAPcSvY2kdCFBGl-pCtSEDgpSP4AI4mdTSxkH-jqTcmQkFZt-Q5JuTnILzvUEHZxm1OGyw-__4bB7y_Xzd6iPUQsbpAJ6c/s400/free_shop_flyer.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5465640105668104754" /></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
