Looking back at the Occupy Pittsburgh commune

Looking back at the Occupy Pittsburgh commune

At our best, Occupy Pittsburgh provided many of our own needs, self-organized and shared food, clothing, medical assistance, published our own newspaper, organized spontaneous and planned disruptions, marches and occupations, organized teach-ins and discussions, acoustic jam sessions and on and on. [...] At our worst, we legislated over a park that we had declared liberated, demeaned our own efforts and valued our appearance in the media, in court, and to the law more than our own health and autonomy

Interview w/ anarchist about Belarus protests

from Green Anti-Capitalist Front

Interview with anarchist in Minsk about the Belarus protests

The fight against the capitalist system and the authoritarian nation states driving the destruction of the planet must be an international one if it has any hope of succeeding. That’s why we decided to reach out to anarchists in Belarus to learn about the current wave of protests confronting the regime of Lukashenka. We did it by contacting the Anarchist Black Cross Belarus, but this interview represents the opinion of a single anarchist in Minsk and doesn’t reflects the position of any particular organisation or group.

Repression Against Anarchists in Belarus – Call for International Solidarity

Now, with the start of unprecedented protests for Belarus, the authorities are concerned about the popularity of anarchists, and they are beginning another round of repressions. State TV channels directly accuse Russian and Belarusian anarchists of “coordinating the riots,” and Frantskevich and Akihiro, apparently are suitable candidates for the role of “organizers of protests.”

Solidarity with the Uprising in Belarus

Berlin, Germany: Solidarity with the Uprising in Belarus

In this situation, the anarchist movement is almost the only political force agitating at the base of society, offering a real alternative to (state) capitalism and oppression. Therefore it is involved at the center of the current uprising, as well as supporting those who were hurt or arrested. As internationalists we declare our solidarity with the peoples uprising in Belarus and call for the support of the anarchist forces in Belarus.
