Rhythms of resistance ?
We are an activist anticapitalist transnational network, using samba as a form of political action.
We use tactical frivolity, inspired by carnival, to confront and critic systems of dominations and directly support everybody struggling against exploitation, discrimination and oppression.
We reject any false opposition between militancy and creative forms of resistance.
Even if we are different bands, operating in a decentralized fashion, we aim to maximise participation in our collective process.
Come with us ! We have everyting to play for.

par ionna
RoR è un network internazionale di attivisti anticapitalisti che usano la samba come forma di azione politica.

Rifiutiamo qualsiasi contrapposizione tra la militanza politica e forme creative di resistenza. Anche se siamo bande differenti che agiscono in modo decentralizzato abbiamo il (...)
