>
> The old Vortex Jazz Club in Stoke Newington Church
Street was
occupied
> with the intention of opening it up as a social
centre and to
> highlight how the dominating power of capital
determines our social,
> living and cultural needs. Social centres create
space for people to
> come together to create, conspire, communicate and
offer a collective
> challenge against this domination. The idea of
social centres is not
> only to occupy social space but to create a critical
visible presence
> in the community where people can engage with
radical ideas and
events
> and participate in creating those events.
