People's Global Action has called for international days of activism against capitalism in conjunction with the G8 protests in Georgia. PGA is the international network which called for the J18 and N30/Seattle protests in 1999. Anti-capitalist groups in Britain are organizing local solidarity events. Infoshop urges North American activists to organize decentralized anti-capitalist events and actions.

PGA Call Out For Action in Solidarity with 2004 G8 protests
On June 8th - 10th 2004 the G8 Summit will be staged on Sea Island, 80 miles south of Savannah in the United States. This location has been specifically chosen by the G8 because it is impossible for protestors to access and therefore groups in the United States have put out a call for decentralised actions. In this spirit of solidarity with actions in the United States, the Dissent! Network, a UK-wide anti-capitalist network that operates by the People's Global Action hallmarks, is calling for local actions and events between 8th-10th June. Through a diversity of tactics Dissent hopes to make people aware of next years G8 summit in the UK and the growing movement which opposes it. Actions could range from educational films and events, to street parties and targeted direct action against the UK government.
