One reason I always
stay optimistic about the future is the never failing ingenuity of
the ordinary people. Repeatedly when faced with adversity, they
cleverly turn it into an opportunity. No matter what the repressive
authorities throw at them, given time they will always turn what looks like
defeat, into victory. The rigid authoritarians can never defeat that
fluid, clever ingenuity of the people.

ATHENS: Police steel
plates used to seal squat, sold by activists to help political
prisoners.
The Occupied
Social Centre VOX, one of the two
buildings that were evicted by police in Exarchia on April 20th,
was re-occupied the next day by anarchists, neighbours and other
people in solidarity, who tore down the steel plates sealing off its
entrances.
On April
26th a few of the comrades who had helped the squatters re-occupy
VOX, reported that all of the steel plates used by the cops and their
paid mercenaries to seal it off were kept and have now been sold in
the market, and all profits (nearly 300 euros) will be given as
financial aid to imprisoned fighters across Greece. Congratulations,
comrades!
