I was late for the G-20 Resistance Project march “The People’s Uprising!“, but early, as it turned out, for the “Battle of Lawrenceville.” I arrived at 40th and Butler while wave after wave of those heavily armed and armored to protect the assembled archons from the forces of anarchy marched down 40th, across the 40th St. Bridge and down Butler St.

Biked through the Strip, North Side, Downtown and Oakland and wound down at the “G-Spot” art exhibit at Lawrenceville’s Fe Gallery. Read more about my experiences, along with mp3 interviews recorded throughout the day (with the Merton Center’s Miles Dinnen, some anonymous anarchists, Dean Cercone and Alberto Almarza) at Pittsburgh Alpha to Omega.

Police show of force at Lawrenceville writers collective, Daniel McCloskey interview

At 1:30 am on September 21, Lawrenceville’s Cyberpunk Apocalypse writers collective was harassed by a large contingent of shotgun-wielding police, apparently part of a series of pre-summit “shows of force” which also targeted the Landslide Community Farm and Seeds of Peace. Apocalypse owner and futurian Daniel McCloskey says police told him the Apocalypse was ‘on a list‘.

Mp3s of my interview with Daniel can be downloaded from Pittsburgh Alpha to Omega or streamed from G20 Bed & Breakfast.
