Las imágenes y videos que desde la tarde del 12 de diciembre se difundieron de la cacería y asesinato de jóvenes normalistas en Chilpancingo, y los que más adelante se han ido conociendo, recuerdan trágicamente las escenas del 2 de octubre de 1968, las del 10 de junio de 1971, las del 20 de abril de 2006 en el Puerto Lázaro Cárdenas, las del 4 de mayo de ese mismo año en San Salvador Atenco y un largo etcétera. Fuerzas estatales -con uniforme o sin él- agreden con armas de fuego a grupos sociales desarmados que se manifiestan reivindicando un derecho o una demanda particular, y producen la muerte de algunos de sus miembros. ... read full story / add a comment

[This was written in the 90's when I was invited to speak at the Bertha Capen Reynolds Society, around 1994 in Seattle,WA. Bertha Capen Reynolds was a socialist social worker who was inspired by the Seattle General Strike. The ending is lost to the dustbin, but it discusses many of the events that let to the most recent economic crisis. My theory of the transition period has evolved since then, but not too serious of mistakes. This is from a Marxist-Humanist perspective, based on the concept of the self-determination of the oppressed as force and reason. Unlike Marxist-Leninism, we see the masses not the party as the "vanguard" of the movement, or the element that creates the jump forward and from which the new stage of consciousness will arise.]

El gobierno federal y el EZLN firmaron el 16 de febrero de 1996 el acuerdo en materia de derechos y cultura indígenas. Era el primer tema de la agenda pactada entre la delegación zapatista y su contraparte gubernamental. Llegar a ese momento fue el resultado de múltiples esfuerzos colectivos e individuales. Muchas provocaciones se tuvieron que sortear, para poder lograr un primer acuerdo que permitía albergar una esperanza de cambios en nuestro país. ... read full story / add a comment

J'ai lu les débats en Espagnol sur le mouvement “Occupy Wall Street” et je vois qu’il y a un grand manque d’information et de curiosité sur comment est apparu ce mouvement, comment il est organisé, et quelle a été la position des anarchistes à ce sujet.

L’information que je vous transmets vient de conversations avec David Graeber [1] qui a été l’un des premiers organisateurs des assemblées de New York d’où le mouvement a surgi, de nos propres observations des événements “Occupy” à Austin (Texas) et des débats entre activistes anarchistes sur les listes et les forums ici aux Etats-Unis, entre autres sources. ... read full story / add a comment

For a number of years now, the Bikehouse has been an established activist house in downtown salt lake. It's been home to punk rock kids, artists, vegans and alike. it's been a temporary home for hundreds of bands passing through town, or activists who need a place to crash while touring. It has been featured in a documentary by National Geographic, the book PUNKHOUSE, a number of independent documentaries and articles in papers all over the country. It has been a staple in the punk rock and activist community for nearly a decade. It is one of the longest running squats in the United States, and represents a symbol in the social housing movement, and sticking it to the man!! It is now home to 4 people, 3 cats, and one dog... and it's in jeopardy.

One of the distinguishing features of the Occupy Wall Street (OWS) movement is its apparent lack of central leadership. Not only does the movement seem leaderless; it does not appear to be organized around any clearly defined ‘demands.’ This has been perceived as something quite positive for participants and supporters of the movement, while being the primary point of criticism from opponents, particularly the mainstream media. Clearly, OWS stands against the unfair balance of wealth distribution in the United States (and around the world, for that matter), the unfair neoliberal politics that have swept the globe over the last four decades, corporate greed (especially in the financial sector), and various forms of systemic violence resulting from structural inequalities built into the capitalist system of exploitation. But what media pundits are looking for is something that they can represent: something, that is, with a timeline, that defines when the protestors will be ‘satisfied.’ This makes OWS qualitatively different from the Tunisian and Egyptian uprisings that took the world stage last winter, popularly touted as the ‘Arab Spring.’ These groups had clearly defined ‘demands’: first and foremost was the overthrow of their political leaders. OWS is distinguished from the Arab Spring to the extent that its definitive aims and goals have yet to be defined.

We as human beings feel the need for physical activities. Unfortunately, not every single one of us has the opportunity or ability to do what we love due to the circumstances.

Soccer is the world’s #1 most popular sport. That means that most of countries around the world play soccer. Soccer is part of their lives, it’s the biggest thing in the world’s culture. This game brings all of us together in harmony, and is loved in any given situation.

Recently the situation in the United States with the attacks on undocumented people and the anti-immigrant movement have reduced the opportunities for us in prison to organize soccer tournaments. We have been discriminated against because the vast majority of the people who play soccer are immigrants. ... read full story / add a comment
