The second day of vending Anarchapulco was the busiest day of the conference, but due to the actions of one supposed "authority figure" aka this year's conference coordinator, we were met with a ton of stress. This was mostly due to our tables being taken from us the night after we packed up our supplies for the first time. Due to this obstacle, our community designed, eco-conscious #Anarchapulco shirts were on the floor, and were not able to be seen by patrons until 4PM, when I finally was able to get to a store that sold folding tables, and drug it down to the conference.
Being the most active conference day (Friday), this particular obstacle could not have come at a more inopportune time. We did manage to get rid of a few shirts after we got the table there, however since we were barely able to break even on the t-shirt project by the last day of the conference, the loss of interest due to lack of visibility on Friday cost us most of the profits we would have made, and has also left us with a ton of t-shirts to distribute post event (not ideal). I will be creating another video soon of how this has affected us, and go over the series of events in more detail.
For now, please enjoy this quick update video from day 2 of vending Anarchapulco. Staying strong through the struggle is what it's about... fight the power! Here is to staying positive. (I know I spelled actively wrong in the video - my b)
