Anarchist / antiauthoritarian scene / activities in St.Petersburg, Russia

A brief overview (in alphabetical order) 
compiled by Feyga Roytblat, Network Against g8, Petersburg

Critical Mass- some people are organising critical mass bike rides some-times. Sorry, I have little information on this, but contact me anyway if you are interested. contact: nag8spb [at] mail.ru

Epicenter Infoshop - working as a distro (including mailorder) in last couple of years, the infoshop is almost sure to get a new location in a club in the center of the city. At least our library (anarchist / punk / environmental etc. stuff in different languages) should be situated there, and maybe some point of free public access to the internet.

Food Not Bombs- people (mostly) from diy-punk-hardcore community serving free veg(etari)an food to the homeless and poor people. The distribution of food has been taking place weekly since January 2005. Recently a new FNB group appeared, serving food in a new location.

Free Voice radio- a local radio station where one anarchist is working. At the moment the radio is broadcasting recorded programs only (2 hours a day on medium waves (AM)) and some money is needed to have an opportunity for live broadcasting (donations are welcome) contact: http://www.freevoice.ru
(not sure if they'll answer quickly, try contacting through PLA as well).

Front Aids- local branch of national network fighting for the rights of
HIV-positive people. Really committed to struggle against neoliberal policies, drug patents etc. contact: riotmasha [at] yadex.ru, frontaids [at] mail.ru http://www.frontaids.ru(seems to be down at the moment)

Petersburg League Of Anarchists (PLA)- local anarchists active on different issues for many years. Active in local coalitions of different political forces such as Antiwar Committee (weekly pickets against the war in Chechnya / North Caucasus) and Antifascist Association (trying to combat fascism and racism). They publish their own newspaper once in 2-4 months (which is quite often for Russian [at] -movement).

Punk-Revival- local antifascist and anarchist punks and skinheads. Active in combatting neonazis who are realy dangerous in Russia. Also connected to the Antiwar Committee (see above) and squatter scene - 4 anarcho-punk squats existed in Petersburg in last 3 years (Klizma being the most famous of them). contact: gkazus [at] mail.ru http://www.pv.mahost.org
