26 years ago today, tens of thousands of people gathered in Washington, DC to mobilize against the meetings of the International Monetary Fund and World Bank—and against global capitalism in general. It was a time of possibility.

@CrimethInc yeah ... i was in seattle in 1999 and got tear gassed by police on 3rd and union - wto. it's good to think about that time because we're going into another period like that but the enemy is actually far more committed to violence than they were then, and they were committed then.
