AUTONOMOUS CULTURE WORKSHOP/WORKCITY, TOORICHde »AUTONOME KULTURWERKSTADT WOHLGROTH, ZUREICH«
In this leaflet, the squatters of the Autonome Kulturwerkstad(t)t Wohlgroth look back on the two and a half years since the occupation. Among other things, they discuss the closure of the consumption room, the sleep-in for drug consumers, and the women's emergency shelter. It is not their job, they say, "to solve the social problems of the city." Since the closure, "dealing and consumption of hard drugs are no longer tolerated. But that doesn't mean, of course, that we exclude junkies on principle."
