Freetown Bajesdorp, Unplugged Living Room Festival, May 12th 2012

Bajesdorp Festival Poster

On May 12th, a saturday, we gather again, like we’re used to do it once in while. Remember Thuis in Bajesdorp? Tons of quality live acts, uncomplicated friendly and diverse audience, florishing talents taking over the place for your pleasure (and theirs!), all in an awsome non-commercial and non-subsidized event..

But this time, we also do it to celebrate our emancipated freestate, declared on that very same day, namely Freetown Bajesdorp! It sounds funny like that – and it is – but also have some less funny reasons to do this. They’ll be exposed soon in our declaration of independance. At this occasion, just join on what could be the first time in history that an “Independance” is both being declared AND already being commemorated at the same time! [...Lees verder]

‘Weiger de controleur, zet een ander slot op je deur!’

De Bond Precaire Woonvormen (BPW), de specialist op het gebied van tijdelijke huisvesting, start op zaterdag 21 april de campagne ‘Weiger de controleur zet een ander slot op je deur’. Door heel Nederland zullen bewoners van verschillende anti-kraakbureaus hun voordeurslot vervangen door een eigen slot. Daarmee reclaimen ze hun recht op privacy en huisvrede dat geschonden wordt door het anti-kraakbureau
Zo werd de BPW benaderd door Gabrielle uit Amsterdam. Gabrielle woont al 5 jaar op basis van een anti-kraakcontract in een woning van woningbouwcorporatie Rochdale aan het Afrikanerplein in Amsterdam Oost. Deze woningbouwcorporatie heeft de woningen in beheer gegeven bij anti-kraakbureau Alvast die de ‘verhuur’ regelt met bewoners [...Lees verder]
