(Chile) March of Indigenous Peoples in Resistance

March of Indigenous Peoples in Resistance

October 17, 2023 / informativoanarquista

Monday, October 9, a march passed through Alameda in solidarity and memory of the indigenous peoples in resistance, in a context in which the government of Boric implants the longest State of Exception of past decades and intensifies repression against the Mapuche communities that position themselves from the Weichan and who don’t lower their guard.

Throughout the march barricades were errected and the Carabineros (COP) were confronted and Wuñelfe, Wenufoye and Palestinian flags were flown. Chilean and Israeli flags could also be seen burning, the latter representing the colonial advance of the State of Israel against the Gaza strip, in response to the Hamas offensive that took place a few days ago.

Solidarity banner from the squatted community of Prosfygika, in Athens

The squatted community of Prosfygika, in Athens, was the setting for 3 days of discussions on a wide range of topics that cut across the community: gentrification, anti-fascism and borders, solidarity with political prisoners, and more.

The workshop on political prisoners announced the opening of a new solidarity campaign with a comrade from the Prosfygika community, Kostas Dimalexis*, incarcerated since November 22, 2022 on similar charges to those of our comrades indicted on 8.12. We (a few French people on the move) took the opportunity of this discussion to explain the case of 8.12, its background and the call for international solidarity for the indicted comrades. We also announced our solidarity with all Palestinian, Turkish and Kurdish political prisoners, with Alfredo Cospito, with our Basque comrades and also with those locked up in the CRA.

Solidarity with comrades of December 8th case, on trial from October 3th to 27th in Paris. (France)

Day 12, Friday, October 20: If you use Signal (Il suffira de Signal..)

from Paris-luttes.info

Witnesses

An activist from Rennes testifies for C. They met during the Yellow Vests (Gilets Jaunes) in 2018. Later, they rubbed shoulders during preparations for feminist mobilizations on November 25, 2019 and March 8, 2020; also in the preparation of mobilizations with the Justice and Truth for Babacar committee [1] but also in mobilizations with undocumented migrants, notably with the requisition of an apartment building in winter 2020. She describes the desire to build a fairer world, the ideals they uphold, but also the growing repression and criminalization of these groups by the state. She paints a portrait of an activist who rejects ancestry relations and advocates non-violent means of action, a world away from the apocalyptic vision constructed by the DGSI and the public prosecutor’s office.

Next, a witness for S. takes the stand. He is a fire chief at Disney and has been his colleague for over 7 years. He describes S. as a very good, serious and trustworthy fireworker. With the help of the lawyers, his intervention demystified many of the elements developed by the prosecution on the 1st days.

(Chile) Case of the comrade Zukato, and Words of the Mother of Zukato

Case of the comrade Zukato

Saturday, July 22, the comrade Zukato ended up with burns on his body after manipulating an accelerant at the occupation of Aplicación High School, the educational instition that he attends. Due to the seriousness of what happened, he was taken to the emergency room at the Posta Central where he was hospitalized and taken into surgery.

Amid the manipulative practices of the hegemonic press, Zukato’s family made known that around 8:30am on wednesday July 26, the comrade entered the wing for a second time. These interventions, which were very long, were accompanied from the street by students from Tajamar High, L1, Aplicación High and individuals who held vigils across Santiago.

Late on that same Wednesday night, Zukatoś mother was intimidated inside the ex posta central. Despite being authorized by the authorities to move freely through the hospital, not only because her 16-year-old son was gravely injured but also endorsed by the Mila Law (dignified accompaniment law), she was impeded by security guards who obstructed her way to stop her from being able to see Zukato, who was in the wing. In resistance, she defied them, walking down the hallways until more than 10 guards came and physically pushed her out and, in parallel, called carabineros who came quickly to back them up and took her to the police station. After hours, the Carabineros let her go after threatening her.

TINIA NEGRA ANTI PRISON TATTOO CONVENTION OCT. 13-15 2023 (GERMANY)

We are very happy to invite you to participate in the Anti-Prison Tattoo and Body Modification Convention “Tinta Negra”. We are organising the event to support anarchist, subversive and revolutionary prisoners. The idea is that all the funds raised will go to the prisoners and their solidarity structures.

As a group of different individuals against prison society, we have decided to organise “Tinta Negra”, an anti-prison tattoo and body modification convention in solidarity with anarchist, subversive and revolutionary prisoners, which will take place in October. Tinta negra was born out of the need to financially support comrades in prison. Preventive arrests and their investigation periods are often long and expensive, and long exemplary sentences are part of the hard repressive strategy of inter-states collaboration. The costs are extremely high and difficult to afford, especially for the solidarity circles around the prisoners who are also hit by the repression.

December 8 case: Anti-terrorism attacks social struggles (France)

Day 2, October 4: request for access to the investigating cops and questions about the defendants’ personalities

December 8 case: Anti-terrorism attacks social struggles
September 27, 2023

Detailed political analysis of the case file.

Soulèvements de la Terre activists detained by the Sub-Directorate for Anti-Terrorism (SDAT), anti-terrorist units mobilized against anti-nuclear activists, CGT trade unionists arrested by the DGSI (The General Directorate for Internal Security, NdT), RAID units (elite tactical unit of the french national police, NdT) deployed during urban uprisings… The recurrent mobilization of anti-terrorist investigative resources to repress social movements, combined with the dissemination of unequivocal language – “ecoterrorism”, “intellectual terrorism” – leave no room for doubt.

The aim is to confuse terrorism with social struggles, so as to prepare public opinion for the fact that the perpetrators of political illegalism will soon be charged with terrorism. And to give free rein to political repression, by giving it the benefit of the most complete repressive arsenal the law offers today: anti-terrorist legislation.

It is against this backdrop that the first trial of leftist activists for “terrorism” since the Tarnac affair [1] will take place in October. The stakes are high. A sentence would legitimize the government’s repressive shift. It is the symbolic dividing line between what can and cannot be qualified as terrorism that the government is seeking to shift in this trial.

$hilean state : Claim from Santiago August 23, 2023

Claim from Santiago
August 23, 2023

(Extracted from Red de Lucha y Propaganda)

To sabotage the absurd and oppressive daily life imposed on us by the capital system and reject the passive proposal of social democracy in the face of the needs of the oppressed class, today we position ourselves as self-convened anarchists, who believe in cooperativism, mutual aid, mutualism, armed insurrection and social war.

Through these ideas our thinking is created, seeking to create new networks and ways of relating to replace the hierarchical pyramids that have oppressed us throughout history.

These pyramids that have divided us have clear culprits, where in addition to the participation of businessmen and the $hilean state, we must not forget the political parties and pseudo-revolutionary organizations that have led the oppressed class to remain subjected to this system. P.C, P.S, P.P.D, R.D, C.S, among others. Also those who have historically contained the oppressed masses to rebel against this system, under the excuse of letting them govern in peace so that they can govern for the people, adding to their coalitions and nefarious militant youth. And organizations like the GAP, the SER, the CEP, the FAR, among others, have led us to the conformist blindness of a false illusion of struggle against those who oppress us, leading the forces of the people to a struggle of ego to see who is more revolutionary.

Besançon (Doubs) France :For Anarchist Comrade Boris’s wheelchair is on its way!

Besançon (Doubs): Boris’s wheelchair is on its way!

At the beginning of July, we urgently re-launched our appeal for financial support for the purchase of a custom-made electric wheelchair for Boris. As a reminder, Boris is the anarchist comrade from Besançon who, during the first lockdown, destroyed two cell towers belonging to the cops and cell phone operators in the Jura region, before being incarcerated in Nancy and then seriously injured in a fire in the cell where he was locked up, leaving him a quadriplegic.

Boris has been back in the Besançon area for two months. He has left the hospital in Chalon-sur-Saône, where he was in an SSR (Follow up and Readaptation Care) unit, and is now living in a medicalized home adapted to his situation… where he will be able to receive the wheelchair at the end of September! What’s more, the fund-raising appeal was once again warmly received in many places, and nearly 11,000 additional euros were raised this summer.

Noise Demo for Anarchist Toby Shone ( Bristol,UK )

Fireworks at HMP Bristol for Imprisoned Anarchist Toby Shone

Anarchists gathered at HMP Bristol on Friday 21 September at 8pm. As darkness fell, fireworks were launched over the prison to protest the rearrest of anarchist Toby Shone and to let him know he is never alone.

Toby was arrested by an armed police unit while he was driving to
Gloucester at 9am on Tuesday 19 September. The arrest was apparently ordered by Ashley Fussell from the National Security Division Wales and South West. The armed police unit is based at Bamfurlong, Gloucestershire, and was involved in Toby’s original arrest in November 2020.

South London , UK : We are presenting a two-part event, The Social War in the Territory Dominated by the Chilean State – And International Solidarity with anarchist and subversive prisoners, at the Touchpaper Anarchist Library.

POSTER ON PDF:
TEXT FROM THE POSTER:

an unrelenting struggle, an insurrectional dream.
Social war and repression of anarchists and subversives in the territory dominated by the Chilean state

“Continuing to take paths of rupture is therefore a small victory, showing that, even if the State shows us its worst face, it cannot bend us. We think that solidarity with those affected by repression must necessarily be transgressive and offensive, free from any pessimistic and victimist discourse. The use of all our creativity, limited only by our anarchist principles, is fundamental…”

Monica Caballero and Francisco Solar, 2017.

Chilean society is a modern democratic one. The industrial ravaging of indigenous land is conducted for the benefit of American, British and European corporations and is managed by endless ‘anti-terrorist’ operations. The administrators of society, from the bosses of production and mass-media to the scientists and the military; from the priests and politicians to the judges and police, have all undergone a costume-change since the years of fascist dictatorship.

Over this time the territory has been the subject of economic booms and collapses, times of social peace and democratic recuperation as well as some of the most intense social rebellions in recent times that have not been short of explosive examples throughout the world.
