Letter of the imprisoned member of Anarchist Action Th. Chatziaggelou to the Chilean imprisoned comrades Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar in view of their trial on May 19
…without a trace of remorse
Anarchy does not bend. It stands proud and unscathed. It travels like waves in the most turbulent seas, hiding its will and rage. It does not swerve, it does not evade. It walks wholeheartedly into the fire and burns to purify the fragmentation of human dignity. It finds temporary refuge in every battle for absolute freedom. It bleeds, is broken, dies and is reborn again and again, giving an endless nightmare to its tyrants.
Anarchy does not bow down. It stands disobedient before the executioners of freedom. It defends its entity under the blade of the political-ideological guillotine even in the most suffocating environment. Dedicated to its historical weight, it leaves its mark indelibly on time to arm new uncontrollable armies of disobedient minorities. It does not give up, it does not repent. It does not diminish and is not silent in the face of subjugation and exploitation. It rises up.
Anarchy does not bow its head before the inquisitors of social war. It stares its persecutors in the face to the end with its head held high and its gaze is no longer white. It is the trial, not on trial, to save the truth from its death, to crush imprisoned uncertainty. It does not forgive but waits. It is smolders with the same unwavering will and stands sworn to the same devotion.This is anarchy and these are us in it. Flesh of its flesh. Drops of the blood of the blackguards. Flames of intolerance in a world that is destined to burn in its entirety. The war wounds scattered erratically across the enclosed universe. Silences, sobs, tears, deafening words.. Spoils of war lying in hellholes, scaremongering and oratory of the democratic law of subjugation.
What we do is what we are. We lift our chains in the face of our persecutors, tuning the most familiar rattle – that of the chains of proud captivity. Comrades Monica and Francisco, with our hands tied but our hearts forever free we remain unyielding, unrepentant to the end.
From Greece to Chile, in the witness box of the sacred examination, there reigns a single truth that crushes disarmament, decadence and political apathy: a thousand and one imprisoned breaths of expectation without a second thought, until absolute freedom.
Power to our brother Alfredo Cospito who steadfastly defends anarchy in action.
