What is Mutual Aid?
In essence, it is the exchange of resources and services in a way that is both voluntary and mutually beneficial to those involved. Everyone has something of value to offer in this society. Instead of looking to corporations or the state, we can rely on one another for what we need!
Who are We?
We are members of the May Day Mutual Aid Cluster involved in coordinating and providing mutual aid on May Day (May 1). May Day 2012 is going to be a global day of strike and action. Occupy Wall Street has called for people to not go to work or school; to do any banking or shopping, but instead take the streets!
Where are we going to be?
@ Bryant Park from 8 a.m. – 2 p.m.
This is the site for mid-town action staging and the pop-up occupation. This area is not permitted. We want to support protesters with coffee, water and breakfast before morning actions and lunch before stepping off for the afternoon march to Union square. Medical and legal help will have a station here. We will also have a Really, Really Free Market, skillshares and more!
@ Union Square from 12 noon – 5:30 p.m.
This is a permitted park that is being organized by the May 1st Coalition. We will have stations around the park including the Really, Really Free Market, along with space for art, skillshares, workshops, lectures, free food and more!
