And squatted in operation since the 15 October 2011 We took to the streets and decided to move from anger to action, The autonomous social center ramp is now in danger of eviction.
Building 15-O, located in the neighborhood of Verdum in Barcelona and rebuilt more than a year with CSA La Rampa, it is an assembly and self-managed project that works based on the values of respect, mute support, anti-sexism, anti-racism i anti-speciesism. More and more, the upper floors house a social housing initiative for precarious families that is also in danger, although it is part of an independent court process.
Among the many activities carried out during this time, the Biciosxs bicycle auto repair workshop stands out, what a month of 9 years open in the neighborhood, que compta amb un ampli suport veïnal i associatiu i que ja ha sigut desallotjat anteriorment de dos espais que avui dia continuen buits i abandonats. Besides, l’espai musical de la La Rampa ha allotjat concerts solidaris amb infinitat de causes i ha rebut la visita de desenes de bandes internacionals.
El passat 21 de juliol l’empresa propietà ria de l’espai, dedicada a l’especulació immobilià ria i actualment en bancarrota, Attikon Heritage SL, va perdre un judici sobre execució hipotecà ria davant de Caja Rural.
La conseqüència immediata d’això és que el pròxim dia 6 November 1, the space where La Rampa is located, again becoming carrion for speculators and giving us a short window of time before the eviction takes effect.
From the assembly of the Social Center as well as from the many people who use and love this project we want to send a very clear message: we will not allow ourselves to be kicked out to leave another dead space in a neighborhood that is already fed up with speculation, evictions and carpet buildings.
The Ramp and Biciosxs are left in the neighborhood!
Stay tuned for the next calls!
