after we had been late because hitchiking was not working well, we had today our workshop about situation of Rote Flora squat (blog “rote flora bleibt”) in hamburg at the anarchist bookfair in zagreb. additionally, we talked about anti-gentrification activities and the “Recht auf Stadt” network in hamburg and situation in other cities. It was an interesting discussion after presenting history and recent situation of the squat in hamburg. Questions concerned the problem of being part of the gentrification by focusing mainly on cultural events and comparing concepts of social centers with their relation towards “non-scene” people. There is an initiative in zagreb against gentrification as well, but it is not close to anarchists but rather an only-legal-oriented and NGO based structure. It was an interesting event including the information about the possible changes in near future in hamburg. We are going to talk about situation of Rote Flora and “Recht auf Stadt” in other croatian cities as well the next days.
Hello! Just want to say thank you for this interesting article! =) Peace, Joy.
