This weekend in Brisbane, upwards of 3,000 people marched in solidarity throughout the city in opposition to the G20 Leaders’ Summit currently taking place at the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Center. The protesters – including indigenous groups, anti-capitalists, opponents to transnational corporations and many more – rallied in unison; sending empathic messages to the representatives of each nation, and the corporate agendas they serve.
The G20 Summit is a annual gathering of the representatives of the 20 largest economies in the world, and Brisbane was announced as the host for 2014 almost two years ago.
