What is 'Reclaim the Streets'?

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Tuesday May 07, 2002 23:21author by RTSReport this post to the editors

Reclaim the Streets is a non-hierarchical, leaderless, openly organised, public group. No individual "plans" or "masterminds" its actions and events. RTS activities are the result of voluntary, unpaid, co-operative efforts from numerous self-directed people attempting to work equally together.

On Monday the 6th of May we took back one street, for one afternoon, to help us imagine what a city without cars could be like. We brought actors, acrobats, performers, musicians, dancers, body painters, and children to create a community space where normally there are cars and trucks belching out pollution. This event was just one among similar events that have taken place in over 40 countries world-wide.
