Glasgow Document Film Festival And Spirit Of Revolt.
Glasgow's unbeatable Document Film Festival is back with its annual feast of films, information, entertainment and education. As usual it is centred in the CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow G2 3JD and runs from the October 9th. until the 12th. October. Well worth some repeat visits.
Glasgow's own Spirit of Revolt will be there with a short film, chat and mini-exhibition about the Spirit of Revolt, on Saturday, 11th. October, 12 until 2pm. This event will be held in the Electron Club in the CCA.
The Spirit of Revolt was founded in 2012 as an archive of dissent
which chronicles the story of Anarchists and Libertarian-Socialists in
Glasgow, Clydeside and the wider area, past and present. This record of
everyday struggle for a fairer life has industrial and cultural activism
at its heart- a colourful and empowering history. Come and find out
what SOR does, and how you could turn Glasgow’s radical history into
useful tools for future action, a must for those interested in OUR history.

Electron Club Open Day, Glasgow.
Open day as in open
December 1st., 12 noon to 4pm.
CCA is at 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow.
The Electron club is a space at the CCA
that is home to a whole variety of people and ideas. Started as a
computer/electronics/artist Open Source software lab it soon expanded
into many areas of cultural diversity and many have little to do with
computers. You are just as likely to bump into a Wobblie as you are a
computer hacker. If you are an artist, techie, nerd, or your bag is
community activism or you are just interested in life, come and take
a look. We are open to the public. Anyone can join. Its free.

HORIZONTALISM IN THE WORKPLACE.
Horizontal Organisation In The Workplace.
A Talk by A.Rice
A Public Event for Radical Glasgow by Martin O'Neil
Tuesday 6th March 7pm-9pm
The Electron Club
CCA
350 Sauchiehall Street
Glasgow G2 3JD
As managerialism kicks in and workplace pressures increase, creating a strong united voice is vital to protecting ourselves as workers. Our Union branch divided the single Rep’s role into 7 jobs,so sharing the power. We found that evolving union structures from a hierarchy to a shared power model was crucial to maintaining a presence in these brutal times.
