Anticapitalathon 2010 Details
From April 23rd through 25th, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank (WB) will hold their annual spring meetings in Washington, DC.
The IMF/WB are responsible for saddling struggling economies with
unmanageable debt, driving billions into deeper poverty through the
imposition of (badly misnamed) “poverty reduction” programs, and
threatening countries who refuse to follow their austerity programs with
economic blacklisting and isolation.The Anticapitalathon Games are not only a friendly competition for budding sportsfans and anticapitalists from across the region, but also as protests against the neoliberal policies of the Bretton Woods Institutions and their local DC counterparts – DC government and their developer and business cohorts.
Check out all the updates below on the progress of the Inaugural Anticapitalathon Games, April 23-25 in the belly of the Beast, Washington DC.
