G8が北海道に来るって。G8の「トップダウン」って意味不明。
モノモノシイ警備に身の安全を守られた「リーダー」たちが、なんでも効率良く決めてくれて、わたしたちは自動的に貧乏・負け組み・泣き寝入り?? まるでパワハラみたい。
リゾートホテルで晩餐会とかお高くとまってていけすかないし、ツマラナソウ。

そんなG8の押し付ける世界は不要ですと言いにわたしたちは7月、北海道に行くよ。洞爺湖のオルタナティブキャンプに集まって、G8のない別の世界のことをみんなで話したり、試してみたりするよ。リーダーとやらに勝手に決めてもらわなくても、わたしたちの居場所はわたしたちが作っているし、アイツらの晩餐会よりもわたしたちのパーティの方が楽しいに決まっているからね。

そうそう、「わたしたちの居場所はわたしたちが作る」ってことで、みんながどういうキャンプ空間やダンスやパーティや日常を作りたいのか、オルタな関係や場所をもとめるすべての人が安心してそこに居ることが出来るための道しるべのようなものを、寄り合ってみんなで合意して作っていくことにするんだ。*セイファー・スペース(Safer Space)のアイデアも参考にしながら。

オルタなスペースとかパーティとか、期待して行っても居心地の悪い思いをすることが皆無とはいえないんだよね。こんなはずじゃなかったのに・・・って。
こういうがっかり感&くやしさは、性別のこともそうだけど、年とっているとか若いとか、金がないとかあるとか、アタマがいいとかわるいとか、酒が飲めるとか飲めないとか、タバコ吸うとか吸わないとか、日本語しゃべるとかしゃべれないとか、肉食べるとか食べないとか、何があるとかないとか、いろんなラインでいろんな人が感じてきたことだと思う。

そういった、居心地の悪さとか、身体的な暴力や脅威(セクハラ、性暴力)が起こらない、あるいは起こってもちゃんと問題を解決できる、そんな<わたしたちの/みんなの>いる場所をどうやって作っていくの? という話をしつつ、わたしたちのキャンプ、パーティを楽しもう。

*Safer Space:
<問いかける・向き合う・サポートする>ことが可能な空間。ハラスメント状況におかれた人が違和感・不快感を表明することができて、問いかけられた人が何が問題なのか考えることができて、ハラスメントのない空間のためにそこに居る人みんながしらんぷりをしない空間。Safer Spaceのアイデアは日常の関係における性的暴力・抑圧をなくすための直接行動から生まれ、支配や抑圧のないオルタナティブな空間づくりの実践として広がっている。

So, the G8 is coming to Hokkaido. The papers explain it as a top-down affair. Stately world leaders rush in surrounded by guards and take their place at a table efficiently making decisions for the future of a world that WE ALL share. Yet so many of us feel powerless, poor, and cheated. Isn’ t this what they call power harassment - just on a larger scale? Heads of state dine and pamper themselves at resort hotels... What is this worth to us?

Grrrl 8 believes that a world which would force the G8 on us is one we do not need. And in July, we’ ll be going to Hokkaido. We’ ll be helping to set up an alternative camp at Toya Lake, where people will come together to jointly create alternatives to this ‘G8 world’ . We don’ t need world leaders making our places in the world, we’ ll make them ourselves! While they are fed and pampered, we’ ll be having a party. Let THEM eat cake.

Yes, we can - and do - make our own spaces for belonging and security in this world. Spaces where all people wishing to build alternatives to the social ‘realities’ and relationships they experience today can share their strengths and insights for change. People across Japan are now carefully working on building these spaces at the Toya Camp, as well as expanding on them everywhere that we live.
And for this, we need to consciously think of safer spaces...

What we mean is, openly working on the spaces we participate in. It’ s not uncommon to attend an alternative event, but leave feeling disappointed or confused due to something that made you or a friend uncomfortable. Maybe women were not represented - or the elderly, or the young. Maybe you couldn’ t financially afford the event in the same way everyone else seemed to. Maybe it was in the way everyone talked or tried to appear, or the way they drank. The prevalence of smoking. The lack of vegetarian, or meat-eaters, options. We may not always be aware, but we’ ve learned to feel the existence of countless differences that can be used to keep us apart.

While many differences exist, Grrrl 8 aim to create a space where people that identify with them can openly and comfortably coexist. We are committed to creating spaces free from all forms of violence, oppression, and harassment - and spaces that are capable of openly addressing these problems when and where they
do occur.

Join us at the Grrrl 8 party AND at the Toya camp as we discuss how we can make ‘our space/a space for everyone’ in this precious world we share!

Safer Space:
A space where we may openly question, engage, and support each other.
In such a space, anyone uncomfortable because of harassment would be able to express it, the offending person would have opportunity to consider the problem, and surrounding persons in the space would be able to openly recognize the issue and face it together to better build a future free of harassment. The idea of safer spaces was born from direct action for the elimination of sexual violence and oppression. It has grown in recent years as a path towards achieving truly alternative spaces free of oppression, assault, marginalization and inequality.
