Solidaritea – letter writing café, Friday 29.10.21 5pm at Malobeo

Friday, October 29, 2021, 5 p.m. at the Malobeo, Kamenzerstr. 38

Prison is based on the system of punishment. This means that social problems are not negotiated, but locked away. Terms like re-socialization become a farce when we look at the conditions in prisons. The social isolation from friends, family and society is an aspect of everyday life in prison. There are few communication channels and hardly any opportunities to enter into exchange outside the prison walls.

In August 2020, a revolt broke out in Belarus, nearly toppling Alexander Lukashenko, the dictator who has ruled the country since 1994. In the following analysis, anarchists who participated in the revolt discuss the ways that it succeeded and how both the regime and its liberal opposition were able to undermine the movement before it could topple the dictatorship. The result is an invaluable resource for those seeking to understand the mechanics of revolution, repression, and cooptation, not to mention post-Soviet politics in the region.

Call for International Week of Solidarity With Anarchist Prisoners 2021 // 23 – 30 August

There is a fundamental lie in the capitalist society. A promise that never comes true. The promise of freedom – you just have to work hard. Every time we stumble upon the crisis of capitalism we are reminded about that. More than one year of Covid-19 lies behind us. Some say, that Covid-19 is a health crisis. But it is not! Covid-19 is another crisis caused by capitalism. Provoked by the urge of more wealth and growth. Which contaminate fertile ground through industrial agriculture, steels habitat for humans and wild animals by extraction politics that turned thriving forests into deserts. It is the madness of capitalism that pushes humankind to ever new frontiers where more viruses are waiting for us.

Being in solidarity has never been so easy and sooo delicious. 
We invite you to the Prisoner-Solidinner! 
There will be a vegan 3 course menu. 
Just come by, bring your friends and family and let us spoil you.

Repression affects all people who criticize the current system and therefore inevitably reach the limits of what this system is willing to tolerate. In order not to leave them alone, we want to create a nice evening with food and drink and give the proceeds to those affected. 

The solidinner will take place on 23.07.2021 at the AZ Conni ( Rudolf-Leonhard-Straße 39, Dresden).The meal will be served from 18:30. So feel free to come a little earlier to get a nice seat. Also for the sake of the nice atmosphere, we would be happy if you don’t show up too late.The evening will be alcohol-free, so please refrain from bringing and consuming alcoholic beverages. Access to the AZ Conni is barrier-free and can be reached with a wheelchair.

An interjection from the death houses of this world!

Addendum to June 11 – International Day of Solidarity for Marius Mason and all anarchist long-term prisoners. Due to the mail, the post came a bit later, but shall be published here anyway.

Millions of people sit in the jails and dungeons of the rulers of this earth. Countless people are on death row. Others sit for days, for weeks or for months. Still others for decades. Only a few weeks ago it was announced from Baden-Württemberg that Hans-Georg will finally be released. It was January 20, 1962, when the Berlin prison gates closed behind him – he has been in custody since that day. Since 1962! He had shot two people after a robbery.

Solidarity with the struggle in Israel/Palestine is all about power

With the ceasefire in place, Palestinians returning to their destroyed homes and Israelis leaving the bunkers, we believe there is a need to keep on talking about the conflict. And although for many among the anarchists and left in Germany the situation is clear, and the mind is set, we still think that there is a lot to say.

It is hard to talk about who started first. And although the history of conflict is important, it is out of the scope of this text. Here we would like to talk about power today and the relationship between the state and the people on the territory of Israel and Palestine.
