World Economic Forum, New York 2002
As around a 1000 of the world’s most important capitalists meet in the Waldorf Astoria (having cynically, post 9-11, moved their usual shindig from Davos, Switzerland to New York to avoid protests) 20,000 of us took to the streets. As part of the Movement of the Imagination collective we prepared a special set of A0 sized posters on the links between war, imperialism and capitalism; and in an atmosphere of extreme intimidation from the media and police, celebratory images of our power on the streets of Genoa in July. Â We then took to the streets of a New York applying slogans to some of the finest ‘messages’ Capitalism has to offer!
