By Justice? Brighton's
campaign in defiance of the Criminal Justice Act
FORWARD!
In the infusion of sub-culture
in this country is a growth. It is not malignant and it is not a
disease. It doesn't represent financial or economic growth. It is
an acute sensitivity and awareness, a fluid energy which has burst
through the fabric of the static state of our oh-so-safe society
- and, in pulling hard at the thread, threatens to completely unweave
it.
Positivity breeds creativity.
Necessity breeds ingenuity. The growing DiY culture that has arisen
among the young and marginalised should be seen as something with
a positive contribution to make to society, not as a burden or something
that must be stamped out with the full force of a government that
is paranoid and psychotic, desperate and callous.
The movement has no temple,
no figure-head. There are no leaders, no membership forms to fill
in. We are living in a state of flux, major change is on the way.
We are witnessing a mental gear-change of Galileo proportions. The
pace of change must be far quicker than waiting on the hopes of
the next General Election. The average age of Conservative Party
members is 62; for Labour Party members it's 32. The only split
between them is a generational one not an ideological one. The policies
remain, to all intents and purposes, identical. Personalities, image,
wordplay. Anything but the issues. It isn't real. There is no such
thing as parliamentary debate anymore. So, take part. Vote for Yourself
- because positive direct action is the only effective way forward.
We are 'naive', 'childish',
'simplistic' 'dysfunctional anarchists' 'jumping on the bandwagon
of today's trendy topic'. We are 'supreme idealists', 'spongers',
'woolly liberals', 'zealots' and 'airheads' engaged in 'uncharacteristic
protests of a minority'. Are we? Read on. You can tell you are having
an effect when you are attacked - or in the case of Criminal Justice
Act - outlawed. The measure of any society is how it treats those
at the bottom. In which case the question needs to be asked: Is
this justice?
The only way to culturally
deprogramme yourself is to drop out of the mainstream channels of
communication and choose your own. The only way to understand is
to go out and see it for yourself.
Wake Up! Wake Up!
