New theorists and activists argue that France’s “representative democracy” is neither democratic nor representative, and they argue for a return to the Athenian model.
The Antifascist turnout was better than expected. We probably ended up doubling or tripling the nazis’ numbers. So we really made it clear who the Kansas City people stand with, and they stand against the NSM, the KKK and these white supremacists espousing bigotry and hate.
Unfortunately, one Antifa sympathizer was arrested after becoming so enraged they started throwing coins at the police and nazis. But aside from that it remained peaceful and the Antifa were successful in drowning out the messages of hate and ignorance with their noise demo. You should have heard how loud we got when the nazi speaker said he wanted KC streets to run with anarchist blood. Truly deafening.
There were several groups being represented on the protest side including Kansas City Antifa, Ida B Wells Anti-Racist Coalition, IWW, Socialist Workers Party, Communist Party, etc.
But I’d stay away from Westport tonight, the nazis are down there drinking and some say they’re armed so be careful tonight folks!
The proverbial “they” find it much easier to write off another dead junkie than to make changes and provide help and support for those struggling with the crippling disease known as addiction and the horrible circumstances that led to it. As long as there are poor people shooting up in parks and alleyways I would much rather be an anarchist and actively work against the system than cash a fat paycheck and try to look the other way.

Over 1000 people - organisers said 1600 - marched through the streets of Perth in opposition to genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and the company Monsanto (which is one of the foremost proponents of GMO technology).
The rally was one of more than 400 actions that took place in over 60 countries as part of a global day of action.
