Our manifesto goes:


Based upon the statement that "Blank walls equal blank minds"
G.A.T.S. aims to give the city a voice: A rebellious and unapologetic voice that is against everything wrong with this sytem. With spraycans, slap tags, markers, wheatpaste and other tools of self-expression we will scream and we will be heard.
In a time when graffiti has been demonized and called ugly we pledge to expose its importance in the realm of politics and raise it to the level no other kind of art has reached. We worry not about the legalities of our actions, but of the message we try to convey. We know that if graffiti didn't change anything they would make it legal.

We unite with people based on our main tasks, which are as follows:

Stop the war on graffiti/youth
Bring political life to people, especially the youth
Create public opinion
Bring advanced organization into graffiti
Bust missions as to promote graffiti as an art

In as few words as possible: We are anti-capitalism and pro-
graffiti."

Love the equality symbol (esp. in bright red and huge!) I'm getting it tattooed soon. Keep up the good work.

'punks not dead' isnt exactly graff against the system

Kewl! Liberation in L.A. comes in spanish and arabic too! =)

G.A.T.
The first time I ever saw the slogan "blank walls equal blank minds" was written in spray paint next to a huge CISCO CBS burner on Sunset. Is that where you got the slogan? I agree and am happy to see you put CISCO's words into action. CISCO was also putting Anarchy signs in his O way back in the early days of LA graff. I hope he's (I think CISCO is male) is part of your program.
Write on!
