A-Infos (en) Ireland, Anarchist journal, Workers Solidarity #94 - Dublin gets new radical centre

--- Seomra Spraoi---- After more than a year of searching for a suitable venue, 
the Seomra Spraoi collective has finally taken possession of a space at 6 Ormond 
Quay, across the river from Bono’s Clarence Hotel. Despite the long wait, the 
hard work of the collective seems to have paid off, as the Seomra’s calendar 
struggles to fit all those who wish to use the space. Every week it hosts 
meetings for the Revolutionary Anarcha-Feminist Group, Anarchist Prisoner 
Support, the Revolt Video film collective, as well as the regular Thursday 
assembly of the Seomra Spraoi collective.
But the Seomra is not just about meetings and organisation, it is an ongoing 
attempt to create a genuinely free space, organized collectively by the people 
who use it. Part of its project is an ongoing attempt to challenge and overcome 
oppressive behaviour such as sexism, racism, and hetero-sexism. In order to do 
so, the collective has constructed a ‘positive spaces’ policy which explores 
these issues and creates a structure for confronting this behaviour as it occurs.

With all the positive activity happening in the Seomra, the future looks bright 
for Dublin’s growing libertarian community. If you wish to participate come to 
one of the weekly meetings, or see seomraspraoi.org for more details.
