Koningsdag has been renamed Woningsdag(housing day) this year. 4 days later it is exactly 40 years ago that the coronation riots happened in Amsterdam. That rhymes too good. Because of that, this viewing suggestion: 'Andere Tijden' produced a documentary a few years back (2013) about the riots with people who were involved in it (squatters, police, government people), and they talk about the riot itself and the escalation that led to it.

In Rotterdam we are going to project the movie on the facade of the building across the street from our squat to share this piece of squatting history with our neigbors, and to give this 'Housing day' some of political charge that the name of the day deserves. It would be nice if more houses do the same thing. Projecting it across the street, or just inside with your housemates.
