Important Article on the experience of an Infoshop

Hey all,

For all of the anarchists that are involved with the space, I think that this article listed below does a really good job of talking about the experience of an infoshop in DC that experienced many of the same struggles that we do. The main things that I got out of the article is that 1) We need to have some kind of explicit political goals for the space, and there should be an element of resistance in them, not only the "counter-institutions" stuff that we have going so far and that 2) transience is a big problem, and it makes it difficult to make real progress, rather than just struggle to stay open.

Anyways, for real, lets all check the article out so that we can try not to repeat mistakes. Oh, also, pay attention to the part about punk dominating a space.

Oh, also, Andrew directed my attention to this. So, thanks Andrew
