venezuela / colombia / luchas indígenas / portada Thursday December 15, 2016 08:19 bySteven Crux   image 1 image
Este texto pretende buscar los puentes que existen entre la liberación de la madre tierra y nuestra praxis autónoma y libertaria. Precisamente, ese objetivo no lo plantea una motivación académica sino de acción, de seguir caminando para redescubrir un otro mundo que tejen los pueblos al calor de sus luchas. En ese sentido, la mayor parte de estos análisis surgen de procesos de acompañamiento y estudio mano a mano con los brazos que liberan la tierra, razón por la cual se hace difícil hacer una exhaustiva referencia y bibliografía al respecto, que se espera, pueda ser mayor en un futuro cercano conforme vaya caminando más la palabra. read full story / add a comment

Debate "The claim that "syndicalist unions broke off from mainstream federations to form 'purely revolutionary' unions, cutting themselves off from the mass of workers" doesn't hold up, though it does conform to the Leninist orthodoxy of "Left-Wing" Communism: An Infantile Disorder. There were many countries where the syndicalist unions were the majority--such as Portugal, Spain, Argentina, Uruguay, Peru and Brazil. Syndicalist unions in South Africa, such as the Industrial Workers of Africa (modeled on the Industrial Workers of the World), were the only unions that organized native African workers, who were excluded from the white craft unions.
At the time of the mass occupation of the factories in Italy in September 1920, the USI (Italian Syndicalist Union) was claiming 800,000 members, and the factory councils formed throughout Italy in those events were mostly organized by the USI. Moreover, it was the anarcho-syndicalists who initiated a militia movement ("arditti del popolo") to fight Mussolini's fascist squads. But the Communists didn't cooperate, and the Socialist Party capitulated to fascism.

17 Kasım günü, AKP’li 6 milletvekilinin hazırlamış olduğu “cinsel istismar” yasa önerisi bu sabah komisyona geri çekilmiş olsa da, gündeme geldiği günden bu yana kadınların tepkisiyle karşı karşıya kalan bu önerinin biz kadınlar için ne demek olduğunu anlamakta fayda var. Hazırlanan öneri ile cinsel ilişkiye rıza yaşını 15’ten 12’ye indirip, sürmekte olan ceza davalarındaki failler ve bundan sonra gerçekleşecek tacizlerin-tecavüzlerin faillerinin, “çocuğun rızası vardır” diyerek cezadan kurtulmasının; cinsel suçların aklanmasının; tacizcilerin ve tecavüzcülerin istismar ettikleri çocuklarla evlendikleri takdirde affedilmesinin; kız çocuklarının 12 yaşından itibaren tacize ve tecavüze maruz bırakılmasının ve çocuk gelinlerin varlığına yasal kılıf uydurulmasının zemini hazırlanmak istenmişti. Henüz bu sabah yasa önerisinin geri çekilmesi ise bir yandan biz kadınların direnerek özgürleşebileceğine dair en somut örneklerden oldu, bir yandan da devletin oyalamacı politikalarının göstergesi.

La résistance de nos camarades a empêché les fascistes de pénétrer physiquement dans le local, mais n’a pu éviter les dégâts matériels que sont la destruction de la totalité des vitres et d’une partie du volet. Plusieurs personnes ont également subi des blessures légères durant cette agression qui a duré de longues minutes, notamment à cause de projectiles (pierres, outils métalliques, bouteilles en verre) lancés par les fascistes. Lors de leur arrivée puis de leur départ, les fascistes ont hurlé « on est chez nous », « la France au Français » et « morts aux juifs », comme signe de ralliement et de dispersion.
Cette attaque odieuse n’est pas un fait isolé. Près de 20 ans après l’incendie du précédent local de la Plume Noire par l’extrême-droite en 1997, elle s’inscrit dans la montée en puissance actuelle de l’extrême-droite et du fascisme, qui se traduit par une multiplication des agressions contre les minorités, des militantes et militants du mouvement syndical, féministe, antiraciste, LGBT et progressiste.

A strategy to defend our communities and to challenge Trump begins with us, the exploited workers. Together we hold the solution to Trump and to the bigger problems of capitalism, patriarchy, and white supremacy. Some sections of the ruling classes may share our desire to get rid of Trump, but only so that they can put another capitalist in the White House and then have us go through this cycle of crisis all over again. While we may end up marching with these people in the streets for the next four years, we know that our allies are those who also work to build the independent power of the exploited classes, not those who want us to pin our hopes on political candidates.
We must push for greater unity of working-class social movements. We need to reach out to others who are doing organizing in our areas and talk to them about working together. We should push for social movement organizations that we are part of – like labor unions, Black Lives Matter chapters, immigrant rights organizations – to organize city-wide summits to plan how to support each other and how to coordinate opposition to Trump. Between now and January 20th, we should organize as much national discussion and coordination between social movements and revolutionary organizations as possible. We should plan for mass protests on Trump’s inauguration day, and we should see these protests as organizing tools to continue building unity and to draw people into the day-to-day organizing in our communities where we will really be building the long-term power that we need to be a threat to the state.

Estas últimas semanas, las redes sociales se han llenado de rabia y frustración al hacerse evidente, una vez más, lo que ocurre hace muchísimo tiempo: tortura, violaciones y asesinatos de mujeres, por el solo hecho de ser mujeres. Van y vienen comentarios en todas direcciones. Reacciones organizadas por parte de mujeres en todo el mundo convocan a marchas, concentraciones y actividades bajo la consigna “Ni Una Menos”. Y también, por el otro lado, han surgido reacciones viscerales de hombres que, queriendo jugar al empate, levantan la consigna absurda de “nadie menos”, evidenciando que no es tan fácil, ni si quiera cuando hablamos del asesinato de mujeres, que “ellos” abandonen sus privilegios de dominación. Hoy es cada vez más claro que esta guerra silenciosa es una cuestión de vida o muerte, y la reflexión es la primera herramienta que tenemos para combatir esta extensa historia de dominación patriarcal.

The Campaign for the Freedom of Rafael Braga makes a call for collectives, movements and popular organizations all over the world to join us in the International Campaign for the Freedom of Rafael Braga.

One of the main issued raised by the Campaign is the motivation behind the arrest of Rafael Braga. He was arrested and condemened in 2013 even without being a protester. He was arrested because he is Black and poor. Because he is not an activist, no mobilizations were made at the time and he was tried and condemned very quickly. Even after his sentencing, the mobilization around his case never achieved the level of the mobilizations around the case of other arrests of militants in 2013 and 2014. Rafael is a symbol of the penal selectivity and structural racism of the justice system of Brazil.

El valor del concepto patriarcado, como forma de nombrar lo invisibilizado y de evidenciar su carácter sistémico; así como el valor del concepto de género para poner de relieve la construcción cultural que encierra este tipo de opresión, y por tanto, susceptible de transformación, adquiere una dimensión programática, ya que a partir de estos se pueden articular una serie de reivindicaciones, desde los movimientos populares, en torno a los efectos o expresiones que la opresión machista tiene en las distintas esferas del ámbito social. De esta manera, la lucha contra la violencia machista y homofóbica, por el derecho al aborto, por el acceso a la salud sexual y reproductiva, contra la discriminación salarial de las mujeres, por la democratización de las tareas domésticas y de cuidado; no sólo nos permite avanzar, al tiempo que se consolida una fuerza antagónica a la dominante, sino que permite ir profundizando y develando aquellos mecanismos que obstaculizan y limitan la capacidad de decidir sobre nuestras vidas y nuestros cuerpos. Teniendo en cuenta todo lo expuesto, se nos presenta el desafío de delinear estrategias concretas para que nuestra militancia social y política promueva y fortalezca la lucha contra el patriarcado, como parte configurativa del sistema de dominación actual, contextualizada en nuestro lugar y tiempo. read full story / add a comment

Con una participación de apenas el 37% del electorado, el NO se impuso, con un 50% de los votos, por un breve margen de menos de un 1%. En circunstancias normales, este resultado se vería como un empate técnico. Sin embargo, la derrota política sufrida por los sectores políticos que han respaldado el acuerdo de paz entre el gobierno de Santos y las FARC-EP no puede ser minimizada. La campaña del NO, en estricto rigor, no tenía que ganar para ganar: le hubiera bastado tener un margen de votos lo suficiente amplio como para poner un signo de interrogación y quitar piso de legitimidad a lo acordado en La Habana. En cambio, lograron mucho más que eso, imponiéndose en el conteo final en una jornada electoral cuyos altos niveles de abstención tampoco pueden atribuirse exclusivamente a la lluvia. La falta de entusiasmo en torno a este acuerdo de paz ha sido más que evidente, pese a que todos los medios de comunicación, la llamada “comunidad internacional” y las principales personalidades de la política y la cultura se posicionaron a favor del SI. read full story / add a comment

The ZACF is saddened to learn of the passing away of comrade Bobo Makhoba in Soweto this Thursday 29 September, at the age of 41, after a long illness. He is survived by his son, to whom we extend our deepest sympathies and condolences – as we do to the rest of his family, friends and comrades.

Bobo was a founding member of the ZACF as well as one of the original guerilla electricians for the Soweto Electricity Crisis Committee’s Operation Khanyisa campaign, which illegally reconnected thousands of households’ electricity after it was cut off for non-payment – forcing Eskom, the state electricity utility, to scrap arrears for thousands of Sowetans. read full story / add a comment

The last 4 months in Zimbabwe can surely be characterized as an awakening of the Zimbabwean working class, as thousands of these citizens have taken to the streets, responding to Pastor Evan Mawarire’s call: “hatichatya” – we are not afraid. The #Thisflag movement followed soon after. This is certainly a historic time for Zimbabwe; a time of growing labour pains as the country (hopefully) enters a process of rebirth towards a better and new Zimbabwe. But before we can even begin to talk about a free Zimbabwe and how we would go about getting that, we need to first have a clear and coherent class analysis of the Zimbabwean social and political climate. Understanding who we are fighting is essential. Zimbabwe without a doubt needs to rid ourselves of the 92-year- old man who thinks the state house is his graveyard. But in the same breath, we must rid itself of the oppressive state system altogether. Swapping a vicious state capitalist manager with another is nowhere close to constituting progress. read full story / add a comment

Nous sommes en colère et nous voulons l’abrogation de la loi Travail. Nous sommes en colère et nous refusons la mise en place d’un service civique obligatoire de neuf mois pour les jeunes. Nous sommes en colère car la destruction de la totalité du code du travail est sur la table et que c’est dès maintenant un enjeu majeur pour les droits des travailleuses et des travailleurs.
Nous sommes en colère contre ceux qui, tout l’été, ont instrumentalisé les attentats pour distiller le venin de la peur et le poison du racisme ; la haine et la division. Nous sommes en colère car cela fait des années que les gouvernements de droite comme de gauche accumulent les lois antisociales malgré des manifestations monstres, des blocages spectaculaires, des grèves fortes, des sondages négatifs.

O PT buscou sua governabilidade operando uma política de alianças que atraia e dividia setores oligárquicos da direita. Assim, foi empurrado para vala comum dos conchavos, lobbies, propinas, caixa dois, entre tantos esquemas de desvios de verbas públicas e favorecimentos de negócios privados. Na sociedade armou uma política de pacto social que fez chegar mecanismos de governo sobre as duas pontas da estrutura de classes. Fez política de crescimento dos ganhos do sistema financeiro e dos grandes capitais e, ao lado disso, atendeu com programas sociais os mais pobres que estavam desassistidos de políticas públicas. Mas deixou intactas as estruturas de concentração da riqueza e do poder, além de ter destinado boa parte dos orçamentos para o pagamento da dívida pública. Ou seja, os chamados “avanços” tiveram um preço alto para o país, em que a barriga dos poderosos ficou mais cheia ainda.

O resultado da engenharia de poder montada pelo PT, dentro da lógica desenvolvimentista, foi um golpe parlamentar que se criou nas oportunidades que o PT deu a direita oportunista.

Tras cuatro años de negociaciones, se firmó en la Habana, Cuba, el acuerdo de paz entre el gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos y las FARC-EP, mientras el proceso con el ELN sigue empantanado y el proceso con el EPL ni siquiera está en la agenda política. Los pronósticos que temían la posibilidad de un quiebre en las negociaciones han quedado ya sin base, cerrándose así un ciclo de lucha que, necesariamente, deberá abrir nuevos escenarios y posibilidades.
