Write an anarchist prisoner today!

Statement of solidarity of the imprisoned member of Anarchist Action Th. Chatzianggelou to the struggle of the anarchist hunger striker G. Michailidis (from 12/5), during the trial of the Anarchist Organisation Action on 25/5/23

In an era of political rot and the deadly rigidity of social competition, we have a duty to be the voice of those who cannot be heard. Those whose right meets walls and grids. We are here for each other, to carry the right of the uncontested, circulating the struggles. With a deep-rooted sense of collectivization and the need to continue to struggle to claim what we are deprived of. Because for us, nothing was ever taken for granted.

A few days before the neoliberal fiesta of the Mitsotakis family, the relevant ministries ordered the suspension of the promised educational leaves of comrade Giannis Michailidis. Loyal to the criminal management of prisoners, they want to drink our blood until the last drop. Our comrade has started, once again, a hunger strike since 12/5/23 to gain the obvious. Nothing more or less than what he is entitled to: the suspension of his sentence and his release.

In this trial, the captive voice of Anarchist Action is also the voice of comrade Giannis Michailidis, to make his right heard. To make his struggle and the passion of a disobedient fighter for freedom heard. Faced with neoliberalism’s dilemma of repentance or death, revolutionaries have proudly chosen their path. My thought and heart are at my comrade’s side, declaring that I reserve the use of every means of resistance and solidarity with this struggle.

We do not beg for the obvious – We do not negotiate with the non-negotiable

We fight together to the end

Victory in the struggle of comrade G.Michailidis
