In diesem Jahr wird es am ersten Mai kein Barrio Antifascista im Carlo Giuliani Park in Berlin Kreuzberg geben. Im letzten Jahr haben wir durch die „Stille, die in den Ohren schreit“ gegen eine sinnentleerte Biermeile, von der wir kein Teil sein wollen, protestiert. Zum kommenden ersten Mai sagen wir unsere Arbeit komplett ab. Continue reading Barrio Antifascista Calling→
On the evening of 23 April a group of saboteurs set fire to high-voltage cables at the Hambach site, preventing the place from working. Hambach forest is the scene of a protracted ecological battle against the company RWE, which is aiming to destroy the forest for coal mining. The construction operation will now suffer huge financial losses due to the successful arson.

Letter from Thomas Meyer-Falk, a comrade who has been imprisoned in Germany since 1996 for bank robbery to fund political struggles.
In 1933 the Nazis passed the Law against Dangerous Habitual Criminals, allowing the courts to indefinitely imprison “habitual criminals” if they consider the person to be dangerous to society: so since 1933 the state can keep people in prison after their regular sentence has finished. In the 50s, the High Court of GDR (East Germany) declared that the law had to be overruled, because it was a “Nazi concept”, but such doubts never existed in West Germany; the Federal Constitutional Court has always accepted PD (Preventative Detention).
However in 2011 the courts declared the conditions in the PD prisons to be a violation of the German constitution. The inmates have finished their sentences, the court said, so their living conditions have to be better than in a regular prison, and the state has to do its best to ensure that any inmate gets a realistic chance for parole as soon as possible, also offering therapy to the inmates.

Anti-Coal Mining Fight continues in the Rhineland in the Hambacher Forest (previously on S!N)for the 4th consecutive year with direct action, forest barricades, and three treesits/treehouse occupations: Oaktown, Beechtown, F*ck Off, and Death Trap. Sending a message to those engaging in exploitation of natural resources in the form of brown coal and other fossil fools that their destruction of natural habitats such as Hambacher Forest and ensuing global mercury and cadmium emissions combined with CO2 dumping and its global climate chaos effects will not be tolerated.
After the previous month’s clearing of barricades the forest once again has been blocked with ditches, ground, hanging and living barricades and continues to be occupied in multiplicity of platforms and treehouses. We call on you to join us and make it possible for comrades who have spent a winter and the cutting season in the forest to take a well earned rest. Continue reading Hambach Forest: Eviction Alert!→
Radio Libertad – die Nachrichtensendung der Anarchistischen Gruppe Mannheim
Der einen oder dem anderen von Euch ist es vielleicht schon aufgefallen: Radio Libertad ist nicht mehr auf Sendung!
Leider war uns der Prozess, eine regelmäßige Radiosendung zu machen, irgendwann doch zuviel. Interessante Themen finden, passende Musik aussuchen, rechtzeitig Vorproduzieren oder pünktlich im Sender sein – das konnten wir irgendwann nicht mehr zuverlässig gewährleisten. Und bevor laufend Wiederholungen ausgestrahlt werden, haben wir den Sendeplatz 2015 freigegeben. Continue reading Radio Libertad→
