With the people taking to the streets in an attempt to force real change, in country after country, it's difficult to keep up to date with all the various uprisings. Blogs, twitter, facebook, etc. can be very helpful, but a conversation with some of those involved can give a abetter picture of what is actually happening, and why.
Podcasts are becoming increasingly popular as a method of getting information out, and among those that regularly give us reports from the front-line of protests and from participants is A-Radio Berlin.
This latest podcast is on on the protests in Slovenia, an interesting aspect of the Slovenian protests is that thousands of cyclists have taken to the streets in mass protests:
As A-Radio Berlin we had the opportunity of talking to a comrade from the Federation for Anarchist Organizing (FAO) in Slovenia and Croatia. Amongst the topics were the ongoing social uprising in Slovenia, the dynamics and challenges of such a movement in the Covid-19 context, state repression and neonazi attacks as well as a comparison to the 2012/2013 uprising. Last but not least our comrade offers an analysis of the tactics used in the struggle and how to possibly go forward.
