The news in context of del.icio.us...
Posted on: 5th August 2005
FOOD NOT BOMBS actions take place in Minsk every Saturday for more than one month now. Every time the collective succeeds to feed about 60-80 people with delicious and warm vegan food.
The staff of the collective is diverse and varies from anarchapunx to krishnaits, but they are united by the impulse to help those who are in need, and what is more important, to demonstrate, that it is possible to change the world by helping each other..
The reactions of the commoners are mainly positive, but of course the
reproaches are also heard. During one action (June 23) somebody of the
nearest houses' tenants had called the police. The actions of the
police patrol were inert and after some explanations ("We only want to
help..." and "We all have sanitary permissions") they made a list of
surnames of those 4 people who were holding scoops in their hands, and left.
The police declared that the participants were law-abiding and that their
personal data were necessary only for information..
