Fyrsti leshringur ársins haldinn af Andspyrnu, bókasafni anarkista. Textar eru á ensku, umræður munu einnig fara fram á ensku. Hægt verður að fá aðstoð við þýðingu.
An independently organised event by the darkroom collective.
Hæ! We would like to invite you all photography lovers to our second gathering at Andrými. We are a bit late in organisation but it’s all good, just a couple of points:
We chose a theme for the assignment of this month; Night. In this case due to the delay we encourage you to take a look into your archive of pics and bring a couple of images. The aim of this exercise is to exchange opinions, points of view and what not while having a discussion and feedback.
Also, regardless the assignment, feel free to bring any material, gear etc. with you. Doubts, questions, ideas or thoughts for next meetings are very welcome as well.
Let’s have a nice meeting and fun!
Accessibility:
The building is currently not wheelchair accessible, unfortunately, but it is our top priority to cultivate a wheelchair accessible space. This is a continuing goal of the organizers of Andrými.
There is a step before the garden gate and then 5 steps leading to the main entrance, each 17 cm high, door widths in the building vary between 50 cm (upstairs washroom door) and 80 cm (entrance door), and the washrooms are so far only on the upper floor and in the basement. The door to the meeting room is 75 cm wide (as most other doors in the building).
Both washrooms in the building are gender neutral.
Andrými er opið föstudaga frá 12-20. Einn föstudag í mánuði er húsið opið aðeins fyrir trans fólk frá klukkan 17! Komdu við og nýttu það sem rýmið hefur upp á að bjóða! Helltu þér upp á kaffi eða te, kíktu í bókasafn anarkista, finndu þér eitthvað sniðugt í fríbúðinni eða notaðu aðstöðuna til að framkalla ljósmyndir, laga hjólið, smíða, gera og græja.
Það eru sjálfboðaliðar í húsinu á þessum tíma.
Börn velkomin.
Aðgengi:
Húsið er því miður ekki vel aðgengilegt fyrir hjólastóla í augnablikinu.
Það er eitt þrep við hliðið að garðinum og svo fimm þrep sem leiða upp að aðalinngangi. Hvert þrep er 17sm hátt. Breidd dyra í húsinu er á milli 50sm (dyr að baðherberginu á efri hæð) og 80sm (aðaldyrnar). Dyrnar að fundarherberginu eru 75sm á breidd eins og flestar aðrar dyr í húsinu.
Baðherbergin eru einungis á efri hæð og í kjallara eins og er. Bæði baðherbergin eru kynlaus.

A main goal of settler-colonial regimes is to enclose indigenous communities within Bantustans, walls, barriers, borders and checkpoints, turning them into refugees within their own territory. Various narratives and myths have been used by colonizers to justify taking over the so-called ‘virgin land of wilderness’, at the expense of the native population that has been inhabiting the area for centuries. Ethnic cleansing, genocide and transfer are still a means to an end, while technological advancements have been playing their role in executing such inhumane policies for decades.
Recently (11 January 2019) it was reported that Elbit Systems, which develops high-tech weapons for the Israeli army, sold its SkyStriker lethal drone to Azerbaijan. This state-of-the-art drone carries a 5kg warhead and can fly at a speed of up to 300 knots (555 kmph). Such advance weapons are often used disproportionately by powerful states against stateless groups, with little fear of retribution, and drone-strikes are still justified by politicians in the name of ‘the war on terror’ by arguing that they are both extremely accurate and keep the soldiers safe.
Considering this, what are the challenges that human rights activists are facing in a place like Israel and Palestine? What motivates them? And which lessons may we learn from the successes of the activists of the past, such as the ones who struggled against the apartheid regime in South Africa?
We will watch the first 25 min from the film “five broken cameras” followed by a 20 min talk and then we will open it for a discussion.
