Thursday 28 March 2024, SkRrRew the Smalltalk VOKU 4 No Border Kitchen Lesvos by ZZW Rafelrand. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

This aim of this evening is to eat together, and do activities that throw any necessities for small talk out of the window, to help you connect with strangers you’d otherwise be too shy to talk to. Together we draw, play, listen to music and have debates. With your donations, we try to build structures of solidarity, near and far. This time we are raising money for No Border Kitchen Lesvos, a self-organized collective that supports people stuck at the border.

Your chickens and nightingales from ZZW Rafelrand

Radar benefit voku

By: börek - March 17th, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Thursday 21 March 2024, Radar benefit voku. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

Various collectives, campaigners, unions, squats, autonomous spaces, ngos, activists are unable to organize and communicate without Instagram, Telegram, Facebook, Twitter. Some come to Joe’s Garage to talk about sustainability, equality, human rights, autonomy, emancipation, anarchy, freedom but still, they would like us to follow them on what they call “socials”. No thanks, no to surveillance capitalism! Joe’s Garage isn’t a dystopian Starbucks to give credit to your capitalist sponsors. Winners of the last Big Brother Awards are Meta, X and Telegram.
In the meantime, people have built and are still maintaining a whole infrastructure offering various services, new tools for squatters and activists, for the movement to communicate. Just to list a few of them on a local level, Disroot, Puscii, Squat!net.
Radar, the online calendar, has been existing since 2000. No need to give your name, IP address, email address or phone number to use Radar. Make your squat or social center visible there too. https://radar.squat.net/ […Lees verder]

Benefit Voku for All4All, Utrecht

By: börek - March 10th, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 11 March 2024, Benefit Voku for All4All, Utrecht. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

We are a crew of former members of ‘Foodbank Maastricht’, where food is regularly rescued from being thrown away, redistributed, and transformed into vegan three-course meals. Foodbank saves hundreds of kilos of food weekly and feeds hundreds in Maastricht.
On this Monday, we are cooking a wonderful three-course vegan meal from rescued ingredients in Joe’s Garage, raising money for All4All foundation in Utrecht.
The All4All Foundation believes that everyone is equal and that there should be more contact between undocumented migrants, asylum seekers, Dutch people and everybody else. Institutional projects for creating contact between migrants and Dutch people are often based on an unequal relationship, in which the migrants are seen as the ones to be helped. On the contrary, the projects of the All4All Foundation encourage exchange between Dutch people and newcomers, so that they can get to know each other in an informal and relaxed way. We believe that everyone has talents, stories, traditions, histories, and love to share! […Lees verder]

Voku for Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms

By: börek - March 1st, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Thursday 7 March 2024, Voku for Sudan’s Emergency Response Rooms. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

Come along for some delicious food and to support the Sudan Solidarity Collective and the Emergency Response Rooms in Sudan.
Sudan’s neighbourhood resistance committees have been on the frontline of mutual aid, self-organised emergency care, and horizontal community-organising for years whilst war has waged throughout the country. In 2023, the RSF, which formed out of militias that perpetrated the genocide in Darfur, have broken out into civil war against the Armed Forces. The fighting between these two former allies, who together perpetrated ethnic cleansing and mass murder in Darfur, has brought another catastrophic episode of violence to the Sudanese people.
In this devastating context, resistance committees have sprung up from Sudanese people from all walks of life who reject the ripplingly violent power games destroying their communities and instead push to support each other through organised solidarity work. These ‘committees’ are not new — they have been doing this work since the anti-government demonstrations in 2013. Through several periods of unrest and conflict since their formation, they have developed wide community support networks which organise responses to the food, water & shelter shortages, as well as organising civil resistance to the warring factions which hold Sudan in their grip. The Emergency Response Rooms (ERRs) have grown out of these committees and the anti-authoritarian networks which they built, carrying on their practice of self-organised mutual aid and neighbourhood support.
The money raised from this voku will be donated to the Sudan Solidarity Collective — a Toronto-based collective which provides international support for the ERRs and for the self-organised anti-authoritarian movement in Sudan.

By: börek - February 26th, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 4 March 2024, ORCA (Organized students for Radical Climate Action) Fundraising & Integration Voku. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

After our action on the 23rd of February at the UvA, ORCA is cooking some delicious food for some funding. ORCA is a student group, primarily made up by UvA (Universiteit van Amsterdam) students that advocates for a vision of true climate justice that addresses the intertwined root causes of the polycrisis. We share an intersectional, anti-capitalist, antifascist worldview and oppose any kinds of oppression and discrimination. This includes an abolitionist approach to borders, police and (neo)colonialism. We believe in bottom-up revolutionary organising and a new world based on mutual radical care, solidarity, and a regenerative culture. Our goals include the decarbonisation, democratisation, and decolonisation of the Dutch higher education system, and we reject the neoliberalisation of our society, including our educational spaces.
Want to find out more? Come to the Voku & have a chat.
