Reading for 5:th of may - Marching for Whose Alternative?

Escalate collective has a new very interesting text up on the protests in the UK, how to relate to the media, the cops and the established unions in the ongoing process of finding new forms of resistance and ways of building collective power.

This will be the reading for next meeting, in addition to our first of may experiences of course!
