You (hope­fully) know by now that the G20 is coming to town… the fin­ance min­is­ters and cent­ral bankers of 19 of the world’s richest coun­tries rep­res­ent­ing 90% of their wealth, yadda yadda. If you don’t know this yet and want more info about why that’s a bad thing, check out the art­icles at StopG20.

I’m won­der­ing two things:

1. Are there any of my lovely pagan friends here who would like to form a pagan affin­ity group on the day of the Car­ni­val Against Cap­it­al­ism and do some­thing like Star­hawk’s crew did with the flow­ing blue silk water banner to rep­res­ent Bolivian water at one of the SF protests? I’m not pro­pos­ing we repro­duce her street theatre, but rather that we come up with some­thing pagan and have a col­our­ful and mean­ing­ful pagan space and crew to hang out with on the day of the party.

2. On the Sunday, I’m plan­ning to hand out “inocu­la­tion packs” against the neo-lib­eral dis­ease that has infec­ted our world. Basic­ally, they’ll be lol­lies with an info sheet in them. I am look­ing for people with lab coats to donate and people to help put in money to print info sheets and people to help make little packs of lol­lies with an info sheet and hand them out on the day.

Any one inter­ested in either of these projects?
