The article talks about the creation of social centers in Europe. It provides a comparison of the squats and social centers in Europe and in the U.S. The author recalls having a show in one of the anticapitalist squats in Milan, Italy, the Centro Sociale Leoncavallo. Non-profit and anticapitalist social centers in Europe, which were buildings of former factories, churches and schools, have been established by groups of anarchists, communists, punks and artists in 1970s. Because of the police forces, who have been crushing these centers, several social centers have disappeared.
