This week has opened with furious defensive statements from the ANC Youth League against the weekend’s media reports about the lavish lifestyle of its president and the millions he has made from tenders awarded to companies he has interests in. Our response to this news cannot just be of disgust at the self-enrichment of those individuals in positions of political influence. Neither can our response be plaintive calls for public officials to account for the vanishing funds. Instead, we can only resist the underdevelopment of poor communities that this culture of greed is causing. These are called protests against the lack of service delivery. But more than that, these are protests against the corruption of development projects opened by privatisation and pursued by the tenderpreneur class. The tendering system to deliver services is only empowering a few at the expense of community upliftment. ... read full story / add a comment

Le 26 septembre 2009, une bande de quarante hommes armés a attaqué le squat communautaire de Kennedy Road à Durban, la deuxième ville d’Afrique du Sud. Au cours de ces attaques, ils ont tué quatre personnes, déplacé plus d’un millier de résidents et mis le feu à des habitations. Menacés de mort, les membres dirigeants de l’organisation de squatters Abahlali baseMjondolo (AbM, littéralement « mouvement des squatters ») de Kennedy Road vivent dorénavant dans la clandestinité. ... read full story / add a comment

A pesar de las contingencias, a pesar del verano y los naturales recesos en las actividades, seguimos cucharón en mano, y si bien es poca la infraestructura y los recursos, es mucha la solidaridad y las ganas de trabajar por mejorar la calidad de vida de nuestra gente, siempre apuntando y bregando por un cambio social de fondo que realmente termine con las desigualdades y la pobreza.

After years of non-violent joint struggle of Palestinian local popular committees with Israeli leftists (with the prominence of the Anarchists Against the Wall initiative among them) a new stage is developing. Lately, the persistent struggles have expanded well beyond the struggle against the separation fence - Sheikh Jarrah and Nabi Saleh, and a general West Bank Coordination Committee was founded, with an AAtW member as internet spokesperson for it. ... read full story / add a comment

At 4pm today, 48 law enforcement officers from the City of Cape Town invaded the city's Temporary Relocation Area, Blikkiesdorp, and removed about 60 people from the one roomed dwellings. This was done completely unlawfully without any high court eviction order, without any explanation, and even more inexplicably by the same city officials who installed the people in the first place. ... read full story / add a comment

This is a good analysis of the growing political crisis in South Africa. There are some important corrections though: 1. In the initial confusion it was thought that four had been killed in the attacks on AbM on 26 September 2009 but two badly wounded comrades were later found alive in hospitals. 2. The attack started at 11:00 p.m. on 26 September. The mob attacked Phondo people and AbM members and set about systemically destroying and looting the homes of AbM members. They were also looking for AbM leaders S'bu Zikode & Mashumi Figlan and promising to kill them. The police refused all calls for help. At about 3 a.m. resistance to the attack was organised from within the community by a group of Phondo men. There were causalities on both sides. 3. The police arrived, stopped the resistance, and arrested AbM members. Then, in their presence and that of local ANC leaders, around 30 homes of AbM leaders were destroyed. These corrections and additions are taken from information on the AbM site, the Pambazuka site and emails from local activists who are concerned that some of the solidarity work has ignored the fact that there was (entirely appropriate) resistance to the fascist ANC mob. ... read full story / add a comment

On Monday (11th January) over 1000 families in two sections of the Itireleng shack settlement, situated between Atteridgeville and Laudium in the Tshwane region, were brutally evicted by a combined force of Red Ants and the Tshwane Metro Police. During the eviction, the residents were attacked with batons, rubber bullets and some residents reported that live ammunition was also used. As a result, 49 people were injured, several seriously. All the evicted residents were left without any shelter and the majority have been camping by the side of the road for the last two days. ... read full story / add a comment

Looking back on the September attacks on Abahlali baseMjondolo members in Kennedy Road, Durban, Raj Patel profiles the views of key Abahlali activists including S’bu Zikode, Zodwa Nsibande and Mazwi Nzimande. Though strongly disrupted by the African National Congress-led (ANC) attack in September, Abahlali has continued to meet, while the absence of its leaders from the Kennedy Road settlement has illustrated the deficiencies of the ANC. ... read full story / add a comment

The giant security apparatus being assembled for the Games has translated into many police state measures which are being used to suppress free speech. There is no doubt that the 2010 Vancouver Winter Games must provide a safe and secure environment for athletes, spectators, officials, local residents and all others involved. This should not be at the expense of those who seek to engage in anti-Olympic protests or other forms of peaceful activism and they should be free to do so without intimidation and fear. ... read full story / add a comment
