(en) France, Monde Libertaire - Threat to Baranoux (ca, de, fr, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]
Date
Wed, 4 Mar 2026 10:00:17 +0200
Another community space threatened with closure ---- Paris, City of
Lights. Or so they say, because in reality, the capital is becoming
increasingly dark and silent. Community spaces and places for mutual
support are closing one after another, victims of gentrification,
exorbitant rents, and real estate projects that have been transforming
Paris into a dormitory town or museum city for several years now, at the
expense of spaces for exchange, engagement, and the fight against a
system based on money, isolation, and hatred of others. The latest
manifestation of this trend: the planned eviction of a
community-oriented and socially engaged space in the still-working-class
neighborhood of Place des Fêtes in the 19th arrondissement. ---- This is
BARANOUX, 78 rue Compans, overlooking Place des Fêtes. The building
owner is asking its tenant, the financially struggling cooperative
VOLUME, to vacate the Baranoux space it houses, in exchange for a 10%
rent reduction. If they refuse, a real estate project is already in the
works: converting the building into offices.
But what exactly is this BARANOUX? It's a community-run space managed by
volunteers: a participatory bar, a community kitchen, a climate
emergency center... Its goal: to inform, raise awareness, and mobilize
local residents on issues of ecology and social justice, and to bring
together associations, activists, and collectives in a welcoming and
engaged space. It was in this spirit that, recently (on January 23rd), a
benefit evening for striking workers at a Biocoop store in the same
neighborhood-a strike we've already covered-was organized in this
Baranoux, a prime example of the neighborhood's grassroots and
community-oriented character.
A petition to support and help BARANOUX is circulating online
(maintenant-le-mouvement.org), and you can also participate in the day
of support this Saturday, February 28th (from 2 pm to 10 pm).
To maintain this space of resistance and mutual aid, and to preserve the
working-class character of this neighborhood, please join us this
Saturday at BARANOUX; the address is 78 rue Compans in the 19th
arrondissement of Paris (very close to Place des Fêtes).
