An Introduction to the Esperanto Language, History and Community

[esperanto] [text in english]

Enkonduko al la Lingvo, Historio kaj Komunumo de Esperanto

Merkredo 10 novembro 2021, 19:00

Esperanto estis inventita en 1887 de pola okulkuracisto nomita L.L. Zamenhof, kiu esperis ke lia kreaĵo helpos transponti diferencojn kiuj devenas de lingvaj baroj. Zamenhof vidis turbulan mondon dividitan per lingvo, kaj li kredis, ke la lingvoj, kiujn homoj jam parolis, estas trosaturitaj de historio, politiko kaj potenco, kio malebligas klare komuniki. Esperanto estis nova komenco, teknologio kiu permesus al siaj parolantoj tute flanki la malfacilaĵojn de naturaj lingvoj.

Li ebligis ĝin kiel eble plej facile lernebla, sen neregulaj verboj, vortprovizo adaptita el latinlingvaj radikoj, kaj simpla, sengenra, preskaŭ senkasta gramatiko.

Venu por aŭdi kaj pri la historio de la lingvo, iom lernu, kio faciligas ĝin esti rapide lernenla, kaj malkovru kiel ĝi povus esti uzata por travojaĝi la mondon pere de la tutmonda Esperanto-komunumo (Esperantujo), kaj ankaŭ kiel vi povas partopreni en la movado (eĉ se vi ankoraŭ ne parolas esperanton).

Ĉeestos ankaŭ kelkaj lertaj esperantistoj ĉe la evento, do vi havos ŝancon aŭdi kiel fakte sonas Esperanta konversacio!

Ho, kaj ankaŭ estos iom da manĝaĵo 🙂 […Lees verder]

Benefit for Lesvos Mutual Aid Network

Monday 1st november 2021, Benefit for Lesvos Mutual Aid Network, Volkseten Vegazulu. Food served from 7pm till 9pm, no reservation.

We are a network of comrades and friends active on the Greek island of Lesvos, with ties to collectives and movements that span the globe. We work to build relationships with people on the island, abolishing dominant norms/hierarchies and the socially constructed boundaries between our communities.

As a part of the broader anti-authoritarian movement, we condemn any and all fascist, sexist and racist behavior. We function through our assemblies, where we discuss topics, collectively take decisions and plan actions. We created an environment based on mutual respect where everyone can take part in equal terms, each according to their ability, each according to their needs. Our actions can vary depending on the needs we encounter and the dynamics of the group. We cooperate only with other self-organized structures, like “Women in Solidarity House”, “No Border Kitchen”, “Binio Squat” and other individuals that are active on the ground.

We as anarchists believe in solidarity that comes from the base and stand side by side with people in need, regardless of whether they come from another country, their age, class, ability, gender, the color of their skin or their sexuality. Here on Lesvos, we participate in multiple initiatives on the ground, all grounded in principles of antiracism, anti-authoritarianism, self-organization and mutual aid, each tackling different aspects of this common struggle.

Radar benefit voku

Monday 20 September 2021, Radar benefit, Volkseten Vegazulu. Food served from 7pm till 9pm, no reservation.

Radar an agenda free of commercial interest.
Created by a community of groups announcing their own events, where the dominant power doesn’t decide if it’s worth a mention.
A tool we build together, to organise, socialise, educate.
A tool designed not to track its users, but break from the ‘facebook-like’ gated communities and to promote open sharing.
Radar exists for more than 20 years, since the very begining of Squat!net. Cities like Berlin, Zurich and Amsterdam were the first ones to join. The network never stopped expending.
Today in Berlin, Kontrapolis is displaying events originally published on Radar. Other collectives, spaces around Europe saw the same opportunity, for instance Koch Areal in Zurich, Disgaraca in Lisbon, Espace Autogéré in Lausanne, Nattsvart Verkstad in Stockholm, the Barricade in Utrecht.
Today in Amsterdam, various groups are making themselves visible on Radar. Not everybody has been swallowed by corporate facebook and twitter. We can only encourage you to make your collectives, spaces visible on Radar, even more if you are outside the Netherlands. We’re eager to know what you’re doing through a network like Radar. And if you are near by, come along and support Radar on 7 september at the Molli and 20 september at Joe’s Garage. […Lees verder]
