Police everywhere, Justice nowhere
Channel: Edinburgh Anarchist Feminist Bookfair
Date: 2021-05-30

Gata Negra is an anarcha-feminist collective born in Valencia/Spain with feisty collaborators from around the world. They make working-class based zines, accessible to all people, not just for activists and 'those in the know'. Their first issue 'Why A.C.A.B.? - 'Police everywhere, Justice nowhere' speaks about police brutality against working class communities, the abusive treatment of women by cops, the state and it's bully-boys and why anarchist-feminism requires the disintegration of the institution of state policing.

Gata Negra will be chairing a Q&A-discussion with Ruth Kinna and Princess Rivulet, facilitated by Emily J Chiller-Kok. They will discuss these matters, as well as how grass-roots community intervention, women's solidarity and radical mutual aid groups could provide an alternative to A.C.A.B.

You can download free all the Gata Negra publications on their website.
