Thursday November 31, 2024, Grasugga solidarity kitchen: Three Dishes inspired on the horrors of Dutch migration policies. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

Benefit dinner for two refugee families* We are a new squat in Utrecht since October 5th, st. Gråsugga (Woodlouse), a little chaotic international collective of radical mischief enthusiasts. This VoKu is dedicated to two refugee families (from Burkina Faso and Somalia). We want to aid covering the health expenses after a traffic accident of one of the families. The other family is currently facing financial insecurity as immigration procedures in the Netherlands are ridiculously slow and not very helpful (fuck IND). The Netherlands is pushing increasingly hostile immigration policies systematically disabling people without documents from access to housing, education, healthcare, or labour rights. This is deliberate exploitation forcing people into situations in which they have to accept jobs far below minimum wage without (legal) security or protection. We are collectively responsible for responding to this with radical action and mutual aid alike. We hope to support these families by cooking a delicious dumpsterdived vegan dinner!! It will be halloween themed (as if the Dutch bureaucracy machine wasn’t enough of a scare), come by! […Lees verder]

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.

Screw the Smalltalk VOKU for No Border Kitchen Lesvos

By: börek - February 5th, 2024  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Monday 12 February 2024, Screw the Smalltalk VOKU for No Border Kitchen Lesvos. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

Our friends at No Border Kitchen Lesvos need our support! With cold weather, ever-continuing pushbacks and little support, we need to stand in solidarity more than ever.

“No Border Kitchen Lesvos is a self-organised group of independent individuals who maintain a solidarity structure on the Greek Island of Lesvos. The main purpose of the collective is to support travellers who cannot progress with their journey due to European migratory policies. Through a praxis based on mutual aid and solidarity, we take a stand against border policies and the suffering they are causing.

Alongside providing basic needs, we are trying to offer a viable alternative to the way travellers are treated by mainstream NGO’s, governments, and local authorities, which is often characterised by condescension, coupled with a dehumanising and infantilising attitude. We also monitor and publish information about the ever-changing situation on Lesvos, to put the situation back into focus and to be able to maintain a flexible and responsive organisational structure.”

Alongside serving food, we will also play a game called screw the smalltalk, in which we doodle together. Bring a pen and paper if you want to participate!

Benefit Voku to support Phoenix Amsterdam

By: börek - June 28th, 2023  Filed under: Benefiet, Volkseten/Voku

Thursday 29 june 2023, Benefit Voku to support Phoenix Amsterdam. Food served from 7pm, no reservation.

This Voku Benefit goes to support Phoenix Amsterdam, a safe space and peer support community under het Wereldhuis for LGBTQ!+ people in forced displacement. Phoenix is self-organized, meeting several times a month to cook, share information and build community after what is often a very difficult journey to the Netherlands. Right now, they are working towards their independence, because they currently receive a small stipend from the Diaconie van de Protestantse Gemeente te Amsterdam, which isn’t nearly enough to support their work in the community (e.g. paying for legal aid). They are also on the lookout for an office space, so information as well as donations is much appreciated!
