Extremely dangerous scenes currently underway in Catalan. The people are holding a referendum asking the question,

"Do you want Catalonia to become an independent state in the form of a republic?"

The vote has been deemed illegal and so the police have taken the ballot boxes. Riots commenced. Police brutality is at a high. No one is safe. There has been rubber bullets flying, elderly folk being beat on the streets. The fire service have been seen trying to protect the people.
Here is a photo of a man in a wheelchair being attacked (photographer unknown).

While all major news outlets are giving some coverage your best source of information is on Twitter, use the hashtag

By now a lot of you are probably aware of tonight's happenings in Charlottesville, USA.

Here is a picture of a small group of students standing their ground chanting 'No racists! No K*K! No Fascist USA'. They are surrounded by a pit of torch wielding fascist animals who are screaming 'White Power 'at them.

There are at least 2000 alt right fascists marching on a college campus. An estimated 3 dead and 35 injured. A car was driven through a crowd and yet the president of the US still won't denounce this evening's actions. There is no place in this world for such hatred.

Interesting idea. Open DIY ethos. You show up and participate. The festival goers dictate experience. As opposed to the standard platform of a line up and scheduled programme. It's going to be interesting to see how this goes. https://reincarnationfestival.com/

Home The universe spoke and told us: “ONE reincarnation is not enough to make a soul age to maturity.” So we follow the call of the heavens and create our next   rebirth.

Her last words: "How can we expect righteousness to prevail when there is hardly anyone willing to give himself up individually to a righteous cause? Such a fine sunny day, and I have to go, but what does my death matter, if through us thousands of people are awakened and stirred to action?”
