On the 27th of April 1994 the people of this country stood in long queues for many hours, waiting to cast their vote for the first time. In some parts of the country the weather was indeed hostile, freezing cold, while in other parts of the country it was scorching hot. Our people were voting for the first time, voting for an end to racism and for democracy and a better life - for jobs, free education and decent housing. Over and above their vote for their material needs to be met they were voting for their freedom. Or so they were made to believe! ... read full story / add a comment

Honduras vivió una jornada de levantamiento popular por segunda vez en quince días, cuando el FNRP convocó a un Paro Cívico Nacional para presionar por una serie de demandas que incluyen entre otros, el rechazo a los planes de privatización de la educación y la salud, que se permita el retorno seguro del Coordinador General del FNRP, que se libere a los presos y presas políticos, y que se reviertan los despidos y suspensiones de maestros que han participado en manifestaciones. ... read full story / add a comment

Al principio Laura Ruiz de Elvira consideraba poco probable que la primavera árabe llegase a Siria. Ahora esta investigadora dedicada a Siria en el Instituto Francés de Oriente Próximo cree que "la revolución está en marcha".

El hecho de que la multinacional canadiense Greystar haya tomado la decisión de renunciar a la solicitud de la licencia ambiental para el proyecto minero Angostura, en el páramo de Santurbán, es el resultado del ejemplar proceso de unidad y movilización que logró el pueblo santandereano, a través de organizaciones sociales, sindicales, estudiantiles, ambientalistas y políticas, junto a destacados gremios de la producción, artistas y generadores de opinión que dieron prueba de nacionalismo, como Fenalco, la Sociedad Santandereana de Ingenieros, la Sociedad de Mejoras Públicas, CM&, el portal de internet Razón Pública, entre otros.

Nadie recuerda en Ituango (Antioquia) una movilización tan multitudinaria como la sucedida hoy lunes 14 de marzo de 2011, Día Internacional de Acción contra las Represas, por el Agua, los Ríos y la Vida. Entre 4.000 y 5.000 personas de los municipios de Ituango, San Andrés de Cuerquia, Briceño y Toledo se dieron cita en el primero de ellos con el objetivo de expresar las inconformidades de diferentes sectores sociales ante los impactos sociales, ambientales y económicos en los inicios del proyecto hidroeléctrico Hidroituango. Según una de las coordinadoras de la movilización, Isabel Cristina Zuleta, se trata de “un llamado de atención a la empresa” y una denuncia de sus impactos para “concertar la manera de mitigarlos”. Esta movilización tiene lugar el mismo día que poblaciones en otras zonas del país (Huila contra la represa El Quimbo o Santander contra Hidrosogamoso o la minería en el páramo de Santurbán) y del continente (Brasil, El Salvador o México) afectadas por represas e hidroeléctricas también protestan por los impactos ambientales y sociales de estos proyectos.

When we began our struggle in 2005 we said that struggle was a school. We declared that each settlement was not just a land occupation that had been organised under apartheid and that now had to defend itself against a democratically elected state aiming to drive the poor out of the cities. We declared that each settlement was also a community and, when it was democratised and people were freely discussing their lives and struggles together and as equals, it was also a kind of popular university. ... read full story / add a comment

As the world watches events unfold in Egypt, the fates of other autocratic leaders in sub-Saharan Africa seem to have been relegated to fourth page news. However, it is worth considering the similarities and differences, particularly for Uganda where the incumbent President of 25 years will face re-election on Friday 18th February. ... read full story / add a comment

In different ways in different places (including most dramatically some places that until very recently were often taken for granted as among the most "docile" and "stable" countries around), people all over the world are rediscovering a principle at work in every revolutionary sequence: if we are willing to act in sufficient numbers and with sufficient determination, we already have all the power we need to devise and impose our own alternative. If we are determined to pursue it, we now have an opportunity to help change the world. ... read full story / add a comment

In 1961 Frantz Fanon wrote, from Tunisia, “The colonial world is a world cut into two....The town belonging to the colonized people, or at least the native town, the Negro village, the medina, the reservation, is a place of ill fame, peopled by men of evil repute. They are born there, it matters little where or how; they die there, it matters not how or where.” Fifty years later cities are still divided into separate zones for those who count and those who don't count. ... read full story / add a comment

The rebellion of the poor has been spreading from town to town, from squatter camp to squatter camp, since 2004. Last week it arrived in Grahamstown.

There is no third force, political party or communist academic behind our struggle. It is oppression at the hands of the African National Congress that has driven us into the rebellion of the poor. We are in rebellion because we are being forced to live without dignity, safety or hope. ... read full story / add a comment

The poor are steadily getting angrier and they are preparing for something. They have relatively little to lose, except the hope that drives their movements, informed predominantly by desire for justice for those who are systematically dehumanized in our country today. These movements include: Abahlali baseMjondolo (AbM), the Poor Peoples’ Alliance, the Landless Peoples’ Movement, the Western Cape Anti-Eviction Campaign, Mandela Park Backyarders and Sikhula Sonke. And, in my hometown— Grahamstown—the Unemployed Peoples’ Movement (UPM) and the Woman’s Social Forum (WSF) are represented. ... read full story / add a comment

The revolution underway in Egypt is being closely watched by Gaza's youth who see it as a source of empowerment and inspiration. It has stirred our sentiments and has moved us to take to the streets to show our solidarity with our neighbors in Egypt. We attempt to absorb every minute event so as to carry it through the years when we will be able to tell our children how proud we were to have lived through one of the greatest and most inspirational events in the history of the Arab world.
