 from  CÚlia Castellano, La Directa  The demonstration was convened following the aggression and threats of neo-Nazi groups against the self-run Occupied Social Center Obrera.
People of all ages, backgrounds and political allegiances of the left took part. Around 6,700 people, according to the Sabadell local police (who always under estimate), demonstrated under the banner: “Sabadell for all”.
The demonstration was called by the Obrera (the Worker) social center , against the aggression of neo-Nazis at dawn on April 9 and against Nazi meetings. The event was policed by a large deployment of riot units ARRO.
“If they touch just one of us, they hurt us all”, ..”Sabadell will be the tomb of fascism”, ..”Native or foreign, the same working class .” ..These were some of the chants heard during the event, . During the march, a dozen anti-fascist protesters put stickers on the gym Therien Jiu Jitsu Kick Boxing, where the Workers Collective say some of the neo-Nazis  in the neighborhood meet.
Reading a manifesto from the balcony of the occupied Workers center, members of the collective stated that “the increase in xenophobic ideologies throughout Europe is, today a reality with parties that promote racist, sexist and classist attitudes.”
Also, they said that “we have to make the fight against fascism and racism every day from schools, work and on the streets, leaving no free space to disseminate their exclusive approaches”. While reading they also reminded us of the antifascist Guillen AgullĂł, who was killed 23 years ago in Montanejos, as well as those presently indicted in the  Oct. 12 and the Pandora anti-anarchist cases, and the brigadiers from VallĂšs county arrested in Idomeni in Greece.
Attending the mobiliziation were the  Collective Unity Against Racisme and Fascism, the Platform of People Affected by Mortgages and the Crisis, Crida per Sabadell, Arran and Youths of Esquerra Republicana, among many others.
The call to demonstrate had adhesions of many organisations (60) and examples of solidarity with the workers by different groups throughout Catalonia. According to David Moya, a member of the community center, “it was an inclusive event, with the assistance of many groups and people of different ages. That’s what bothers the Nazis, we are not only young and militants. ”
On Friday 22 April, a group of neo-Nazis from the Western VallĂšs county made an appearance at the Autonomous University of Barcelona, coinciding with an act of Youth Civil Society Catalana (SCC), prompting a student demonstration of rejection. Some of them are the same neo-Nazis who berated the members of the Workers center in early April.
Unas 7.000 personas protestan contra las agresiones neonazis en Sabadell
La manifestaciĂłn ha sido convocada a raĂz de la agresiĂłn y las amenazas de grupos neonazis contra el centro social la Obrera.
âSi tocan a una nos tocan a todasâ, âSabadell serĂĄ la tumba del fascismoâ,âNativa o extranjera, la misma clase obreraâ. Estos son algunos de los cĂĄnticos que se escucharon durante el recorrido de la manifestaciĂłn, desde la plaza Imperial, pasando por la Gran Via, la calle de Sol i PadrĂs y la calle Brutau hasta el local de la Obrera, en la avenida BarberĂ . Durante el trayecto, una decena de manifestantes pusieron pegatinas antifascistas en el gimnasio Therien Jiu Jitsu Kick Boxing, de la calle de Sol i PadrĂs, donde aseguran desde la Obrera que se reĂșnen algunos de los neonazis que han increpado en el barrio.
Mediante la lectura de un manifiesto desde el balcĂłn de la Obrera, los integrantes del CSA afirmaron que âel aumento de ideologĂas xenĂłfobas en toda Europa es, hoy dĂa, una realidad con partidos que promueven actitudes racistas, sexistas y clasistasâ. AsĂ mismo, aseguraron que âla lucha contra el fascismo y el racismo la tenemos que realizar dĂa a dĂa desde los centros educativos, el trabajo, en la calle, no dejando ni un espacio libre donde difundan sus planteamientos excluyentesâ. Durante la lectura tambiĂ©n recordaron al antifascista GuillĂ©n AgullĂł, asesinado hace 23 años en Montanejos, a las encausadas del 12 de octubre y del caso Pandora, y a las brigadistas del VallĂšs detenidas en Idomeni.
En la movilizaciĂłn asistieron colectivos como Unitat Contra el Feixisme i el Racisme, la Plataforma de Afectados por la Hipoteca y la Crisis, Crida per Sabadell, Arran y las Juventudes de Esquerra Republicana, entre muchos otros. La convocatoria contĂł con tantas adhesiones (mĂĄs de 60) y muestras de solidaridad con la Obrera por parte de diferentes colectivos de toda Catalunya, que se convirtiĂł en un acto sin firma, popular. SegĂșn David Moya, miembro del centro social, âha sido una manifestaciĂłn inclusiva, con la asistencia de muchos colectivos y personas de distintas edades y procedencias varias. Eso es lo que mĂĄs les molesta a los nazis, que no somos Ășnicamente jĂłvenes y militantesâ……….
…El pasado viernes 22 de abril, un grupo de neonazis procedente del VallĂšs Occidental hizo acto de presencia en la Universidad AutĂČnoma de Barcelona, coincidiendo con un acto de las Juventudes de Societat Civil Catalana (SCC), lo que provocĂł una manifestaciĂłn estudiantil de rechazo. Algunos de ellos son los mismos neonazis que increparon a las integrantes de la Obrera a principios de abril.
