Track B: Reclaim the Streets & The Liverpool Dockers
Reclaim the Streets & The Liverpool Dockers: the other most spectacular demo technique of the Nineties was the temporary occupation of urban areas by huge playful crowds - a kind of instant carnival that came out of the eco road protest movement. However an internal debate took the Reclaim the Streets collective towards an active political confrontation. This was the first of those - an alliance with the Liverpool Dockers and a historical hailing of the Chartists. Duration: 30 mins. April 1997.
