Videos from Previous Assemblings
We are hopeful to have more soon, but the most recent video we have shared in the link below is our meeting on 'milpa' (as it is practiced and nurtured by comrades in the Yucatan) as a way of thinking concretely around convivial tools which can hold together social infrastructures of community.
To view visit: http://16beavergroup.org/assembling/ http://16beavergroup.org/assembling/
Testing Assembling - Movement 18 - Valiana Aguilar and Ángel Kú on Milpa and the Social Infrastructures of Community with Center for Convivial Research and Autonomy
Also, to have a sense of the questions that were present in the context of struggles in Beirut before and during the pandemic, which the recent explosions are expression and exacerbation of, you can watch Movement 9, in which our friends Haig Aivazian and Göksun Yazici shared notes on the situtaions in Lebanon and Turkey respectively.
