In the native tradition from which we draw much - a Survival Gathering
is a coming together of a variety of forces. This is what we would like to 
see the Gathering be - a coming together of the disparate tendencies, 
collectives and communities that currently constiute a loose anarchist 
movement throughout North America. We do not seek a false harmony, but 
hope that people will come together in a spirit of dialogue and resistance 
so that we can leave better prepared for the struggles ahead.
 
The main site for the Gathering is the 519 Church St. Community Centre, which,
as the name suggests, is located at 519 Church.
