Save the Date – Saturday 15th November 📆
Racist “Bristol Patriots” want to hold a protest outside the Mercure hotel in Redcliffe. Last August, the people of Bristol defended refugees and asylum seekers in the hotel from a violent racist mob. It’s time to turn up again and show those staying in the hotel that we stand with them and that they are welcome in Bristol 🌻
More details to follow soon ⏳
Come along to BASE Cafe for a film screening of ‘Fires and Fascism’ followed by a Q&A with director Pete Knapp – Sunday 19th October
Pay what you can vegan food from 6pm
Film starts at 7pm
FIRES AND FASCISM is a new 57-min documentary shows the wildfires in Europe are more than just climate change and mismanagement. It links the increasing wildfires of Europe with past fascism, big business, organised crime, and the rise of the far right. It showcases how communities are engaging in direct action, protest, rewilding, and suppressing the rise of uncontrollable fires and the far right through direct actions.

The film screening is free however donations to pay towards the costs of producing the film are welcome and appreciated.
The racists still haven’t got the message. After being defeated and humiliated last weekend, “Bristol Patriots” intend once again to sow hatred on our streets.
Their lack of numbers – and fascists’ general fear of organising in Bristol – is no accident. It is our collective strength, organisation and repeated willingness to mobilise that makes our city a bastion of antifascism.
As other hotel demonstrations across the country see a resurgence of open Nazism, we must not concede an inch to racist ideas.
Lets turn out in force once more on the 7th.
Join Friends of Bristol Antifascists for an evening of food and prisoner letter writing, as we gather to support antifascist prisoners around the world because isolation is a state weapon and connection is a form of resistance. Show our comrades that their fight continues on the outside 🏴🚩
6pm Friday 25th July at BASE Social Centre, 14 Robertson Road, BS5 6JY
Letter-writing materials provided
Vegan meal served — donations welcome
NO ONE IS FREE UNTIL ALL ARE FREE ⛓️💥

What does it means to stand up against mass deportations under an authoritarian regime? This is a chance to put your questions to an LA activist. As well as learn the rights you can share with people being targeted by immigration enforcement in Bristol.
We will have some short talks from the different groups and then plenty of time for questions and discussion and to think about next steps. There will also be zines, stickers and radical literature available.

Bristol Defendant Solidarity (BDS) support people in their battles with the legal system and those who have been imprisoned for involvement in protests, direct action as well as people who are targets of discrimination by the police.
These folk do incredible and heartfelt work behind the scenes and after all the attention and energy of the protest has died down.
Donate to their crowdfunder on chuffed so they can continue to support those who need our support and solidarity.
