CALL FOR A BLACK NOVEMBER
IN MEMORY OF KEVIN GARRIDO
The anti-authoritarian comrade Kevin Garrido was captured by the Chilean dirty police on November 19, 2015, after placing and detonating an artisanal explosive device at one of the entrances to the San Bernardo gendarmerie school. After his capture, he was also accused of carrying out an explosive attack outside the 12th police station of San Miguel on October 29 of that same year, which was attributed to the International Conspiracy for Revenge – Gerásimos Tsakalos Explosion Cell. During the early hours of November 19, the police also captured comrade Joaquín García Chancks, accusing him of belonging, along with Kevin, to this cell responsible for the attack against the 12th police station.
After a long trial, Kevin was sentenced to 17 years in prison for attacking both police institutions with explosives, and Joaquín García was sentenced to 13 years in prison for the explosive attack and carrying a firearm that he had at the time been recaptured after escaping from house arrest in 2016.

November 9 and 10, 2024
On the evening of Friday 25/10, a 22-year-old woman prisoner was found hanged in a temporary detention area of Korydallos prisons, with the news announced by the media of the system four days later on the morning of the 29th. On 24/10 she had been transferred to the special health centre of Korydallos prisons and then to a psychiatric hospital, as the prison officials had judged her behaviour “criminal”. She was then returned to her cell with the same pattern repeating itself next morning. Even if forensically this is considered suicide, the distinction is meaningless as a large number of previous incidents prove the uniformed officers’ contribution. This particular case is another state murder, reminding us of the punitive and inhumane nature of the prison system.
A system that not only does not care about them, but annihilates the personality of each prisoner. A system that not only does not respect mental illness, neurodiversity and the experiences of the incarcerated, but that creates countless psychological traumas and not only.

On the day of October 17, 202 various emblematic high schools in the communes of Providencia and Santiago in the territory dominated by the chilean state marked the commemoration of the Social Uprising which took place on October 18, 2019.
On this date, the chilean state and its repressive apparatus arrested, tortured, mutilated, raped, abused and assassinated thousands of residents who rose up across the territory. A revolt that initially began from the call for fare evasion from the secondary students after the price of public transport tickets was raised, that blossomed into the outburst of the rage of thousands of residents.

“IT IS FORBIDDEN FOR BOTH THE RICH AND THE POOR TO SLEEP UNDER BRIDGES, BEG AND STEAL BREAD”
Anatole France
In July 2019, at Leroy Merlin(Leroy Merlin is a French-headquartered home improvement and gardening retailer serving several countries in Europe,) in Piraeus, an attempt to remove low-priced products by comrades Christoforos Kortesis, and Thymios A. takes place. This is the reason for the targeting of trade unionist-comrade Giannis A. by the security company OVIT employed by Leroy. Giannis A. does not resign as indicated by the management. After being held hostage for 3 hours the two comrades leave the “small room” of the store with the help of four more comrades. The next afternoon, the cops kidnap Christoforos K., take him to the GADA ( headquarters police in Athens) and charge him, as the prosecutor Angeloudi upgrades this to felony.
DEMONSTRATION MARCH OF DEFENSE OF GREEN AND FREE AND PUBLIC SPACES
SATURDAY 19 OCTOBER, 1PM MONASTIRAKI SQUARE
On October 19th at 13.00 in Monastiraki we participate and support together with a number of collectives from different neighborhoods of Attica the course of defense of open spaces and greenery. Parks, squares, hills and the urban green in general are under constant attack by the authorities, municipalities, corporations and the state, which act destructively for profit and the suppression of lives that resist or do not fit into their molds. Greenery is disappearing and the city we live in is turning more and more into a cement city surrounded by the ashes of burnt forests . A suffocating city that welcomes tourists and the rich, while ignoring, repressing or displacing from its center the poorest strata, the immigrant women and people who fight against the violent destruction of everyday life. They want a gray city, sterile and guarded by cameras and uniformed killers, we colorful and self-organized neighborhoods .
In the past, mainly against the Municipality of Athens and Bakoyannis, (mayor) many assemblies for squares and parks resisted the encroachment of capital and the annihilation of greenery, creating a series of collective resistance in the neighborhoods. These battles for the defense of green open spaces were linked to initiatives in various areas of Attica Athens from Baroutadiko in Aegaleo to the Shooting Range in Kaisariani and the Platonos Academy in Kolonos.
