The EF! Animal Lib Stream Squirrels have sent us a promo for the animal liberation stream within EF! UK this August. They are trying to bring more animal liberation to Earth First whilst creating a space for radical animal liberation to grow and share and plot in the UK. Read their words below after watching the cool video!
WHAT: Eco-anarchist gathering and activist skillshare.
WHEN: 6th to 11th August
WHERE: Pembrookshire, Wales (keep an eye on @earth.firstUK on instagram for the specific location closer to the date).
“Hey Friends!
We are super happy to announce we have created a little instagram to share with you all the news leading up to the Earth First! Gathering in Wales this August. You can follow us on @RadicalAnimalLib, where we will post about workshops we have confirmed and any other info you might need.
A quick intro to EF: Earth First has been going for the best part of 3 decades, organising gatherings where anarchists and other activists from many different fronts in the UK meet to share what they’ve been up to, the stuff they’ve learnt and the kind of help they might need. It is a DIY event, where you are encouraged to participate in the day to day tasks to keep it going; be it washing up or helping in the kitchen! The event is pay as you feel, although there are suggestions for food and event donations. Veggies Kitchen tends to do the cooking (which is always vegan and served 3 times a day) and you are encouraged to leave your phone behind to have conversations away from microphones. It is a camping event, so you will need a tent or some other form of sleeping arrangement!
Please share the event far and wide. We believe the eco-anarchist movement should be linked to animal liberation and we know that animal liberation activists would massively benefit from immersing themselves in green anarchist environments, mingling with activists from many different fronts, sharing ideas, campaigns and skills. This is a great opportunity to make the animal liberation movement in the UK so much stronger, pushing the grassroots further and creating those connections that will strengthen our movement.
Lets meet in August, learn from other struggles and network with likeminded people. Who knows, the next big campaign of the movement could be brewing in the background at EF! this summer, and it only takes you and a few new friends to start pushing back against the animal abusing machine!
We have flyers to distribute too, so if you think you could share a few around your are, please reach out asap and we will post them to you!
See you in Wales this august!
