By: börek - March 5th, 2023  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Thursday 9 March 2023, Samidoun Benefit, Volkseten Vegazulu. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

We are Samidoun; the Palestinian Prisoner Solidarity Network, an international network of organizers and activists working to build solidarity with Palestinian prisoners in their struggle for freedom.
Our main focus in The Netherlands is to spread awareness about the thousands of Palestinian political prisoners who are being held captive by the settler colonial state known as Israel.
Besides this, we are also firm supporters of the complete liberation of Palestine from the river to the sea.
We plan solidarity stands, demonstrations, and events in Amsterdam and Rotterdam. On the 9th of March, we will cook at the Volkskeuken in Joe’s Garage.
All the proceeds will go into purchasing flags, printing flyers and other basic materials needed for demonstrations and solidarity stands.
So please come grab a delicious Palestinian vegan dinner and have a chat with us about the Palestinian cause!
We look forward to meeting you!

By: börek - March 5th, 2023  Filed under: Benefiet, Muziek, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 6 March 2023 , ROSA benefit voku, Volkseten Vegazulu. Food served from 7pm, no reservation. Music from 9pm.

We are part of ROSA (Radical Organisation of Students in Amsterdam), a radical leftist student organization at UvA, and we are launching a week of action for international women’s day. We are setting up a donation drive for menstrual products and funds, with all proceeds going to ASKV. ASKV is an organization that provides legal assistance and social support to rejected refugees in the Netherlands. Undocumented refugees are often caught in an impossible position: being unable to return to their country of origin while lacking access to social security, education, and employment in the Netherlands. Undocumented refugees often end up on the margins of society, vulnerable to abuse and exploitation. The funds we collect with our benefit dinner will go directly to menstrual products.

After the food, around 9pm, music on the stage with Lasha Rukhadze, the lonely horseboy. Another visit of Lasha at Joe’s Garage, with his guitar, before heading back to Greece and Georgia.

Benefit Voku for The Senegalese Association in Palermo

By: börek - February 5th, 2023  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 20 February 2023, Benefit Voku for The Senegalese Association in Palermo. The anti-authoritarian collective Ajo Negro is cooking, food served from 7pm, no reservation.

The Senegalese Association in Palermo is a social and cultural space run by the Senegalese community. It has a small community kitchen in Piazza Sette Fate, in the Ballarò neighbourhood, where the community regularly self-organise social dinners for friends and neighbours. This is one of the few self-organised, self-funded spaces in the city of Palermo, run by the migrant community and it has been existing for over 25 years. Also the Baye Fall movement is active in the space, organising cultural and political events around their anti-colonial struggles. During the months of Ramadan, instead of fasting, the Baye Fall crew cooks free meals for those fasting, so that they can break the fasting all together every day of the month.
The kitchen and the bathroom really need some renovation. As there is no institutional fundings supporting the space, they are asking friends and collectives around the world to support them with small donations to fix the space before the spring! Come to eat delicious vegan food!

Benefit VoKu for medical funds and Rebetiko live music

By: börek - February 5th, 2023  Filed under: Muziek, Volkseten/Voku

Saturday February 18th 2023, Benefit VoKu and live music to cover medical funds for our comrade G.
Music with Rebetiko Trio: Eirini Zogali (oud, bouzouki, vocals) Vanessa Kourtesi (vocals) and Asteris Varveris (laouto, guitar, vocals). Food from 7pm, music from 9pm.

In a world of exploitation, repression, and authority, fundamental rights like public and free health are increasingly fading to make room for privatization. This is also the case in Greece, where healthcare is translated as a product and source of profit which automatically means that the access to it is a privilege of those that belong to the upper classes of society, while low-class, minorities, and groups that live in the gutter are excluded and treated as “low-level” citizens.
The only solution is to stand next to each other and make steps for the world we want to be part of. A world without discrimination of any kind, without exploitation between living beings, no bosses, and no masters! We support each other against the world of individualization and capitalistic brutality.
Solidarity is our weapon!
