Subject: AUT: STOP THE WALK FOR CAPITALISM




> 
> COME TO BOSTON ON DECEMBER 2 TO STOP THE WALK FOR
> CAPITALISM
> 
> Where & What Time: 11:00 am at Park Street T Stop.
> 
> On December 2 2001 an International Day for
> Capitalism is being held. This 
> includes a march in the city of Boston. This march
> is in itself offensive 
> enough to begin with, but especially offensive
> considering that the US is 
> currently engaged in a war in which working class
> men and women are dying 
> for the benefit of the capitalist system which these
> people promote.
> 
> We recognize that while it is important to oppose
> this march, which is an 
> unacceptable insult added to the many injuries that
> capitalism inflicts on 
> us on a daily basis, it is also important to not
> play into the hands of the 
> organizers of this event. We must realize that this
> is not the same as 
> dealing with fascists and Nazis (although these
> people are as, if not more, 
> dangerous) and the same tactics do not necessarily
> apply. The organizers of 
> this event have made it clear that one of their main
> objectives is to pain 
> anti-capitalists in a negative light. While we must
> be present to show that 
> such shameless pro-capitalism will not be accepted,
> we must be careful to 
> not fall into their trap.
> 
> So, what are our objectives for December 2?
> 
> -To Stop, Disrupt, and/or Generally Harass the
> Pro-Capitalist March. If you 
> feel that fringe racist groups are dangerous, then
> think about the damage 
> capitalism and it’s supporters cause around the
> world, and the fact that we 
> must confront and oppose them at every turn becomes
> clearly obvious. 
> Capitalism is a dangerous, unstable, and murderous
> creature, and we are its 
> prey. This is a matter of basic self-defense.
> 
> -To Expose and Ridicule the Capitalists We urge
> people to be creative about 
> this. Bring puppets, do theater, make ironic signs
> (“Hooray for Capitalism, 
> Hooray for Misery”). We can use our strength in
> numbers to infiltrate and 
> eventually take over their march with our message in
> a way that effectively 
> paints them in the negative light.
> 
> Our creativity is our strength!
> 
> See you on the 2nd!
