The police deployed a giant crane to lift riot police onto the roof and balconies.

Word quickly spread around the cities and hundreds of neighbours and supporters attempted to block the narrow streets.

Pamplona/Irun has been without an occupied center for years due to the rightwing government and the eviction was highly political and promoted by the rightwing.

Violent police charges began immediately and many comrades were injured.

A support demo had already been called for 25th August and today 17th August demos are continuing.

Rio de Janeiro: Día de solidaridad y lucha para los 23 victimas del Estado: 14 de agosto

A.N.A.    * 14 de Agosto, dia internacional de apoyo a los 23 activistas condenados en Rio de Janeiro, en defensa del dercho de manifestación, por todas y todos quienes luchan.

Convocamos a  todos los movimientos sociales, organizaciones populares y revolucionarias, sindicatos, movimientos estudantiles, grupos de defensa de los derechos humanos, intelectuales progresistas y demás sectores de la sociedad civil a organizar acciones simultaneas en ese gran dia de solidaridad y lucha, contra la criminalización de los movimientos sociales y en defensa del derecho de manifestación


Sugerencias de acción:

– Manifestaciones de calle ante embajadas o consulados brasileños en los respectivos países (si es posíble con entrega de documento repudiando la persecución política a los 23).

– Debates, charlas contra la criminalización de luchas en universidades y centros educativos.Image result for comunicado das 23 anarquistas acusados no Rio

– Difusión de afiches y volantes de apoyo a los 23.

– Exhibición de pancartes en lugares de estudio, trabajo o vivienda en apoyo a los 23.

– Difundir imagenes y textos en las redes sociales en apoyo a los 23 y por todas y todos los que luchan.

Sugerimos que cada país o ciudad incorpore, junto con la pauta de los 23, lo que deba decirse respecto a la criminalización de quienes luchan en sus localidades. Hay ejemplos de encarcelamientos y persecuciones políticas en todas partes del mundo, siendo un caso reciente la joven palestina Ahed Tamimi que durante seis meses dió testimonio de bravura y firmeza al no doblegarse frente a la prisión.

¡Toda y cualquier acción de apoyo es bienvenida!

¡Vamos a mostrar que los 23 no están solos!Image result for comunicado das 23 anarquistas acusados no Rio

¡Ese ataque representa un ataque a todas y todos los que luchan en diversas partes del globo! ¡Nuestra lucha es clasista e internacionalista!

¡Registre sus acciones de apoyo! ¡Estaremos posteando durante todo el día las manifestaciones realizadas en las diversas localidades!

Rojava, Uber, Patriarcado ..Entrevista con el Antropólogo Anarquista David Graeber en Madrid

David Graeber: “En Rojava saben que no te puedes librar del capitalismo si no te libras antes del patriarcado”

La mutación del capitalismo, la uberización del empleo, el poder del feminismo, la lacra moral de la deuda o el origen de la desigualdad son algunos de los temas que trata en esta entrevista el antropólogo estadounidense David Graeber, que visita Madrid para participar en un evento en apoyo al pueblo Kurdo y la revolución de Rojava.Image result for rojava and the spanish revolution

Como un proscrito ideológico, este antropólogo y activista da clases en la London School of Economics, tras ser expulsado de Yale y ser rechazado de todas las universidades de su país, Estados Unidos, por declararse anarquista. Fue uno de los líderes del movimiento Occupy Wall Street, aunque él odia definirse así.

Su libro En deuda: una historia alternativa de la economía (Ariel, 2012), marcó un antes y un después en los estudios antropológicos y ha hecho temblar la concepción y todo lo dicho anteriormente sobre el dinero, la deuda y la evolución de las relaciones humanas en un plano económico y moral.Image result for fall of us imperialism 2018

Recibe a El Salto con el pelo despeinado y lamparones en los pantalones. Tiene prisa porque quiere ir a visitar una exposición sobre la Guerra Civil —su padre fue voluntario en las Brigadas Internacionales en defensa de la República Española en 1937— pero se toma con calma responder a las preguntas.

Anarchists want to Kick ‘Unite the Right’ nazi killers out of DC!

White nationalists are met by a group of counterprotesters in Charlottesville, Virginia on August 12, 2017 [File: Joshua Roberts/Reuters]

White supremacists gather in nation’s capital a year after the deadly car-ramming attack in Charlottesville, Virginia.

by

Washington, DC – More than 1,000 anti-fascist and anti-racist protesters are expected to descend on the US capital on Sunday to counter a far-right rally, one year after the first “Unite the Right” in Charlottesville, Virginia turned deadly.

Several counterprotests are scheduled to take place near the “Unite the Right 2” event in Washington, DC’s Lafayette Park, located just outside the White House. The far-right protest is being organised by Jason Kessler, who put together the last year’s protest in Charlottesville.

At that demonstration, white supremacists and other members of the alt-right clashed with anti-racists. It ended after a far-right protester rammed his car into a crowd of counterdemonstrators, killing 32-year-old Heather Heyer and injuring more than a dozen others. James Alex Fields Jr, the accused driver, has since been charged on several counts, including federal hate crimes. Continue reading “Anarchists want to Kick ‘Unite the Right’ nazi killers out of DC!”
