*Get ready for #GlobalNoise!
Global day of potbanging protest on October 13*

A year ago, the world was surprised by the rapid spread of square
occupations calling for #GlobalChange. This Saturday we will take the
streets again, louder than ever, with a global cacerolazo, casserole,
potbanging protest.
The initiative comes from the international networks of Occupy, Indignados,
#YoSoy132, and now many grassroots groups and individuals joined: in hundreds
of cities <http://www.globalnoise.net/wiki/who-is-already-in-2/> around the
globe protests are planned.

*Many voices, one struggle*

The focus of the protest is intentionally left open to be filled by local
organizers and participants. The result is a turbulent cacophony of issues
and slogans: “Don’t owe, won’t pay” in Spain, “Fuck the Troika” in
Portugal, a clear message against war from Istanbul, a protest in front of
the annual IMF/Worldbank meeting in Tokyo,
One common theme running through all the #GlobalNoise events is the
targeting of political and financial elites who are held responsible for
destroying our communities and the planet, resonating the ongoing wave of
anti-austerity protests in Europe and around the world. At the same time
#GlobalNoise is a symbol of hope and unity, building on a wide variety of
struggles for global justice and solidarity, assuring that together we will
create another world.

*Beyond October 13*

#GlobalNoise is a moment to establish new connections, strengthen our
networks and communicate our plans for the future. The coming weeks and
months a large number of events are scheduled, including the Global
Education Strike <http://ism-global.net/> on October 18, movement
gatherings in Madrid (Agora99 <http://99agora.net/>) and Florence (
Firenze10+10 <http://firenze1010.eu/>) in november, the global day of
action for the Rights of Migrants, Refugees and Displaced
people<http://globalmigrantsaction.org/>on December 18.
And then there is an initiative from Montreal, Quebec, called
VIA22<http://via22.org/>which is a global day of action planned for
October 22 and continuing to
occur on the 22nd of every month. The idea of VIA22 is to take potbanging
to the next level by expressing the need that our marches and
demonstrations become spaces for sharing knowledge about alternatives.
