Public Communique of Mapuche Political Prisoners from Angol Prison

via: https://lazarzamora.cl/?p=11389

August 10, 2023

By: Mapuche Political Prisoners of Angol

The mapuche political prisoners of the Angol Prison call on their mapuche traditional authorities who have backed them in this long and painful hunger strike to come to Angol Prison, now that we have seen that there is no political will to resolve our demands on the part of the government and the prison.

Those who, entrenched in biased racism, have delayed a solution, leading us to the extreme of our conditions of bodily health. For this reason, faced with this humiliating attitude of those who aim to push us, seeking to bully our families, submit our children to degrading treatment, all with the ultimate intention of making us abandon our political and human rights.

We the Mapuche political prisoners, owe ourselves to the joint and collective ways that indicate our traditional Mapuche ordering. This is why we make this call, to our Mapuche authorities, to anounce before our communities and relatives, the difficult decision to carry out a THIRST STRIKE in the coming hours, to push the government to resolve our demands.

Greece: Update from the march in Solidarity with the occupation of Evaggelismos on Sunday 8 October in the city of Heraklion in Crete

 Update from the march in Solidarity with the occupation of Evaggelismos on Sunday 8 October in the city of Heraklion in Crete

One week after the eviction of the Evangelismos squat after 21 years, we decided to call a march in the city centre on the day of the municipal elections. The march came as a continuation of a week full of actions following the eviction of the squat, and was one of the most crowded in the history of the movement in Heraklion, with more than 2,000 people attending. The people and groups in the city that issued calls formed a common block with a banner “EVANGELISMOS HAS NOT SURRENDERED”

Hundreds of texts were handed out, Flyers were thrown, and very loud slogans were heard throughout.

The cops tried to disperse the crowd by firing tear gas from both sides, but the bulk of the march remained in solidarity with the crowd and did not retreat until they could no longer breathe from the chemicals. Some people – including families with young children – who tried to escape, were briefly trapped in an alleyway by cops.

“Patience, strength, belief in the Cause. We’re right, in the end.”

Athens,Greece : The building of social centre Zizania has just been resquatted

14/10/2023 : Today we resquatted Zizania

For the past two years the building on Fylis & Feron has been a squatted social centre where collectives and individuals from the neighborhood and around struggled for a more collective and more free life.

We resquatted the building to continue the fight against gentrification and for free public space. We resquatted as we see the constant rise of rents, the conversion of the city to a field of consumption and of our houses into Airbnbs, the violent confinement of our migrant-neighbors in detention centers and camps, and the rise the rise of a cop culture that reaffirms all the above.

and “occupied social centre Zizania”.

In the morning of 30th September, the uniformed bastards of the National Police, with the consent and cooperation of the rectors of the NTUA Bountouvis and the University of Crete Kontakis, evict two occupied premises. Violating sanctuary, they evict the Self-managed Polytechnic space for the third time within a month.

(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.

Berlin,Germany : Barricades and stones for the anniversary of Liebig34 eviction

Berlin: Barricades and stones for the anniversary of Liebig34 eviction

Housing is not a commodity! Two apartments in the Liebig14 expropriated

“We will not surrender. And even if they drag us out of our homes. We will return. And we will take back what is taken from us.” Words from the Liebig34 on October 9, 2020, at 04:00 am.

Exactly three years ago today, on October 9, 2020, the anarcha queer feminist project Liebig34 was evicted. More than twelve years ago, on February 2, 2011, the house project Liebig14 was evicted. The evictions were attacks on our struggles to shape our lives and places of living in a self-determined way and from below. They were attacks on our collective organizing against sexist violence and capitalist patriarchy.

Exactly today, on October 9, 2023, we expropriated two vacant apartments in Liebig14. We declare them common property of the neighborhood.

The issue of Palestine is the issue of statism’s bankruptcy!

In recent days, we have witnessed a renewed conflict in the Palestinian region and an attack by the Islamist group Hamas on the lands under the control of the Israeli government, which was unprecedented in the past years or even decades. This incident shows more than anything that the Palestinian issue, which everyone liked to consider a “dead” issue, is still alive and with no apparent end in sight, at least as long as the governments exist!

The ancient land of Palestine belongs, first of all, to the people of this land. The people who once had a peaceful and happy life are now being slaughtered for decades in the meat grinder of nationalist and Islamist ideologies and the temptation to form Jewish, Arab, and Islamic governments… Continue reading The issue of Palestine is the issue of statism’s bankruptcy! →

[Italy] October 19, 20, 21. Let’s take to the streets against war, the society of control, repression. Anarchist Bloc at the Ghedi (Brescia) demonstration on October 21

WAR IS EVERYWHERE

The ongoing war in Ukraine between the Russian Federation and NATO is not a local conflict, but part of a global clash for the partitioning of the world that threatens to erupt elsewhere every day (Africa, Serbia, Azerbaijan, Armenia…). Having become a veritable meat grinder, with hundreds of thousands of deaths among forcibly conscripted soldiers and civilians, the conflict in Ukraine is already having an impact on African populations forced to emigrate due to the rising cost of cereals and the ensuing escalation in local clashes. After letting more than a hundred people drown in Cutro, the Italian government prepares its iron fist against migrants and immigrants (opening of new concentration camps in every Region, administrative detention even for asylum seekers), while boosting its Italian imperialism with the “Mattei plan for Africa”.

THE WAR IS ALSO HERE

A society at war can only be a secured and militarized society.

Between permanent States of Emergency and supposedly green transitions, smart city projects are preparing the transformation of cities into real digital prisons, flanking the already ubiquitous police and military with the installation of facial recognition cameras (as in the case of the “new ZTL” in Rome and Milan), sensors that monitor cellular traffic, smart control booths (as in Venice) and even microphones (as in Trento).

Against the Party of Insurrection: A Look at Appelism in the U.S.

From Scenes

PDF: Print version | Read version

Appelism is an informal strain of authoritarian communism that has been gaining traction on this continent over the past decade or so. Taking up elements of both the revolutionary party structure and insurrectionary anarchism, this tendency rebrands authoritarian communism as something that looks like informal networks but acts like a party.

Appelists generally do not present themselves as appelists. The term “appelist” refers to The Call (L’Appel in the original French) by the Invisible Committee, written by some of the same authors as the 1999 journal Tiqqun. This is why “appelists” are sometimes also called “tiqqunists.” Both are terms popularized by anarchists to counteract appelists’ claims that they do not have an ideology or established political network.

Appelists’ dishonesty around this is part of a larger strategy of trying to cease being visible as a distinct group or milieu (which they term “opacity”). They then seek to invisibly coordinate various aspects of everyday life towards a form of communism, with an emphasis on building and controlling infrastructure. This is accompanied by a push to intervene decisively in moments of social conflict such that those situations escalate, struggles gain territory, and people are drawn into their infrastructure. Appelists will typically identify themselves as partisans, autonomists, or communists, if at all, though in North America it is more common for them to also selectively call themselves anarchists.

The anarchist comrade Gino Vatteroni has been transferred from the prison of Massa to that of Alessandria, in “Alta Sicurezza 2” [High-security 2], where many anarchist comrades have been imprisoned in the past and where some revolutionary communist militants are currently being held.
