Protest: Spanish Anarchist at the verge of dying

Amadeu_casellas-thumb

Amadeu Casellas is an anarchist prisoner who was convicted for robbing banks in the 1970s. He used the money to support workers' struggles. Despite having fully served his sentences and spending more years in prison than the maximum allowed by law, the authorities will not release him. His is now in a critical situation after 85 days on a hunger strike, and since October 4th on a drinking strike.

Protests are being organised all over Spain, and now in London:

Let us demand Amadeu's release from prison!

Tower Hamlets College Strike Update

Public2-thumb

The Tower Hamlets College Strike continues.

Teachers again affirmed support for continuing the indefinite strike action in a mass meeting Tuesday. About 150 people voted to stay out, with 13 abstentions and no votes against. At the meeting a number of people expressed their understandable concerns about surviving longer with no income and more people talked about how students were suffering, but many more people argued that the students know what we're doing and support us.

The Platform: Carlos, 1 year without you

Carlos, 1 year without you, 1 year with you.

A 1 hour and 16 minutes documentary about the intense year of fight after the murder of the antfascist comrade Carlos Palomino in Madrid. 11/11/2007

There are wounds that even time can't close, as the one opened in our hearts when our brother, friend and comrade Carlos, when going to fight against racism, was killed by a neo-Nazi military.

Something inside us died that day. But also a strong feeling of endless reassurance to fight against fascism and injustice was born. Antifascism in Madrid is since then more united and organized than ever. Antifascist groups have honored every day 11 by attacking the sites, the symbols and the accomplices whos hands were stained with the brave blood of Carlos.

Carlos, we promise you we wont stop fighting until the last breath, and your smiling face will contemplate how Madrid is and will be the tomb of fascism.

THE BEST HOMAGE IS TO CONTINUE FIGHTING

Ahava Occupied Again in support for Palestine

Shopfront-thumb

On Friday 18thm at 11am, two people entered the Ahava store in Monmoth Street, Covent Garden and closed the shop by locking themselves inside. Under the banner of 'Stolen Beauty from Stolen Land', they set out to highlight the sale of beauty products manufactured on illegal Israeli Settlements on Occupied Palestinian land.

In line with Saturday's International Day of Action Against Ahava, supported by the International Solidarity Movement, Code Pink, Palestine Solidarity Campaign and the Boycott Israeli Goods Campaign, the actions support the Palestinian non-violent efforts at resisting the ongoing Israeli occupation of Palestine.

Update on Tower Hamlets College strike - 10/9/09

Img_2822-thumb

Over 250 teachers at Tower Hamlets College are in day 10 of an indefinite strike against cuts in courses and jobs.

A mass meeting of 160 strikers today reaffirmed our decision for all out strike. The strike seems to becoming more rather than less solid. Many people have joined the union and the strike at the Poplar (6th form) site and a few members who were working at another site came out this week. Some team leaders and middle managers who were expected to go back to work after a few days are still out.

Climate Rush Tour Begins

Hi all climate camps. I just wanted to make mention about the climate rush tour that has kicked off on 4th September in Sipson which is ending in Totnes at the end of september, the girls and boys all decked out with the classic suffergette customs along side 3 beautiful horses.

I only went to fist leg of the tour which was Sipson Village, and also my first time in the village. It was an over whelming experience.

The work that every activist has done in the village has been amazing. But I wanted to share a comment. From one of the residents, that we haven't involved the local community with what's going on and all are hard work i.e actions. She had very valid points and a local perspective that will add punch to the campaign, No Third Runway. 

This was my first time, but I fell that It was important to share that comment. This is something that could be added to the outreach blog. 

Any documentery makers, listen to their stories and capturing their pain, will win hearts and minds of the UK. Age of Stupid?

So have pint at the King William IV, Sipson and a big shout out to all the boys and girls who are climate rushing across the Uk outreaching.
