BREAKING DOWN THE MYTHS OF PRISON

SOLIDRITY TO OLGA ECONOMIDOU by CCF & Theofilos Mavropoulos..

“Turn off the main switch in this dump. Here the beautiful becomes ugly, the choice becomes a habit and the meaningless important. Prison dirties creases and swallows pieces of dreams, desires, thoughts and feelings. Its most permanent residents, the majority of the prisoners are now a part of the appliances of the prisons. Bars, yard, cameras,locks, prisoners mix all together and re-enact the world of captivity. Nothing is worthy of captivity. Nothing is worthy in here. Come let’s go and don’t look back….Only fire will cleanse this place…..”

El núcleo de base autónomo (A.M.Bonanno)

Estructuras de masas, los núcleos de base autónomos son el elemento que enlaza la organización anarquista informal a las luchas sociales.

El núcleo de base autónomo no es una forma de lucha enteramente nueva. Se han hecho intentos de desarrollar estas estructuras en Italia durante los pasados diez años. Los más notables de estos han sido el Movimiento Autónomo de los Trabajadores del Ferrocarril de Turín, y las ligas autogestionadas contra la base de misiles crucero en Comiso.

Corda tesa

While in Val Susa the battle between the volunteers rushing to defend the Free Republic of the Maddalena was raging against the Praetorians sent to enforce the Republic of Slave Italy, a blaze in the night in Rome destroyed the new control room of Tiburtina station (a node of the Tav), blocking the national rail traffic. The suspicion that there may be a link between the protests in the valley and the metropolitan fire was immediate, as was immediate the outrage and denial of “NoTav People” through its public representatives; institutional assurances on probable natural causes were late in coming and not very convincing: it is a short circuit, less likely to be sabotage, or perhaps the side effect of a simple theft of copper.

Athens-Thessaloikni, Greece – DOES WORK LIBERATE? Solidarity poster for anarchist Rami Sirianos and comrade Kleomenis Savanidis

DOES WORK LIBERATE?

 

Work penetrates and determines our whole existence. Time flows merciless at her rhythm as we commute through identical depressive surroundings at an ever increasing pace. Working time…productive time…free time…Every single one of our activities falls within her context: acquiring knowledge is considered an investment for a future career, joy is transformed into entertainment and delves into an orgy of consumption, our creativity is crushed within the narrow limits of productivity, our relationships -even our erotic encounters- speak the language of performance and usability… Our perversion has reached such a point that we search for any form of work, even voluntary, in order to fill our existential void, in order to “do something”.

Ciao Errico! Un contributo al dibattito sull’anarchismo e la violenza

VelenA riceve e pubblica un intervento in risposta all’articolo pubblicato su Linkiesta dal titolo “Noi anarchici e contro la violenza. I terroristi di Genova sono leninisti”

———————————————————————————————————-

Ciò che è stato dichiarato nell’articolo: “Noi anarchici e contro la violenza” è ipocritamente falso, mistificatorio e storicamente revisionista.

Discurso de Buenaventura Durruti ante la pérdida del Valle del Ebro (Agosto de 1936)

La revolución social española se inició el 18 de julio de 1936, luego del golpe de estado dado por las fuerzas fascistas al entonces gobierno del Frente Popular. Esta revolución, de carácter anarquista, fue promovida por la CNT-FAI principalmente, y se caracterizó por la organización de más de cinco millones de personas bajo el comunismo libertario, con cooperativas campesinas y las fábricas bajo control obrero. Sin bien la revolución en sí fue de corta duración, sus lecciones nos quedan hasta nuestros días, y fue la comprobación de que la anarquía es perfectamente aplicable en la vida real.

en es gr- Athens: Written declaration to the court by Kostas Gournas, member of Revolutionary Struggle – October 24th, 2011

In April 2010, in a joint letter with my comrades Pola Roupa and Nikos Maziotis, we claimed political responsibilityfor our participation in Revolutionary Struggle (Epanastatikos Agonas). We declared that we’re proud of the organization and our fellow fighter Lambros Foundas, who was killed by cops in the armed scuffle of Dafni.

Today I’m standing opposite you, in this special court, facing grave charges that draw many years of imprisonment. All this time there’s been a systematic effort on State’s part at my expense, so as to bend my will for struggle: from the torturing and battering in GADA (Athens police headquarters) and my imprisonment far away from my children’s residence, to the committal for trial against my spouse Maria Beraha, who is present here as co-defendant. However, I’m standing here opposite you and I declare that I’m proud of my struggle, my comrades and the history of Revolutionary Struggle.

(it-en) Riflessioni scandalose – alcune note sull’anarchismo civile

Presentiamo di seguito la nostra traduzione di quello che reputiamo un ulteriore contributo contro la repressione interna. Questo testo, scritto da una compagna anarchica inglese in risposta a quello dell’Anarchist Federation (omologa della Federazione Anarchica Italiana), rappresenta un’interessante critica delle contraddizioni interne ad una concezione “civile” dell’anarchia e di molto anarchismo contemporaneo. La lunga riflessione che presentiamo può tranquillamente rappresentare una risposta anche alle penose posizioni di federazioni e anarchici al di quà della Manica.

Declaracion Publica de Iván Goldenberg

Frente a los rumores que me acusan de ser informante del caso bombas por la declaración en interrogatorios ilegales que me realizó la DIPOLCAR declaro lo siguiente:

1.- El 22 de Mayo del año 2009, muere el Mauri en las circunstancias que todos conocemos a las 1:20 de la mañana. En ese momento él llevaba un revólver Smith&Wisson perteneciente a mi familia, por el cual a pocas horas de haber ocurrido aquel accidente me toman detenido en Valparaíso. Llegan a mi hogar a través de mi padre ya que en un principio pensaban que yo era el fallecido. Es en este momento a las 7 de la mañana donde soy el primer y único detenido he interrogado de forma ilegal por el caso, nadie sabe esto excepto mi familia.
