For the launch of the current issue of FUSE magazine, we have invited community organizations, political groups, and individuals to make statements on how "PRECARITY" affects their work and lives and how they are fighting back. We see the concept of precarity as a useful way of linking existing struggles and strengthening networks of solidarity and we want to hear how this network could help in your struggles.
We invite you to join us and make your own statement on precarity by participating in the on-site production of a video archive, or to just come out to support community organizations, FUSE magazine and precarity-canada by enjoying a night of djs, dancing, and drinking.

We are precarious when we are homeless, unemployed, and underemployed; when we are struggling to pay rent, to find work, to access resources; when we are exploited, living under occupation, without status, and without benefits; when we are policed, surveilled and imprisoned; when we are isolated, alienated, and under-romanced. For these and many other reasons, we are precarious.

If I lived in California I'd probably eat more avocados and I'd probably learn how to drive a car but for sure I would have gone to the Perception of Perception events last weekend! My busy brother was a patricipant. I'm gonna see if I can coax a report out of him.
