Today, at 6:30 am on August 17, 2017, l’Attiéké, the self-organized and inhabited social centre in Saint-Denis [in Paris northern suburbs], was evicted with the help of cops of all kinds, bailiffs, president and manager of the Fédération Française de Triathlon (owner of the building). The inhabitants were able to leave without arrest and recover some stuff. The rest of the belongings left for storage in another city in the Paris region and will likely be recovered in the days to come.
The former occupants of l’Attiéké social centre will meet tonight at 7 pm at the Geyter square. Attendance is welcome and necessary to manage the emergency. Other support events will follow.
There is sadness, of course, facing this news that turns a page of four years of struggles, occupations, solidarity and friendships, but there is still a whole book to write! Be ready, coz the “show must go on!”
