Solidarity Action at the Mexican Embassy for the Zapatistas and other smaller actions
Solidarity Action at the Mexican Embassy for the Zapatistas
grassrootsprojects
Today the 17th november is the 27th anniversary of the Zapatista uprising.
In spirit of the international solidarity with the Zapatista movement that has been under constant paramilitary attacks, we protested at the Mexican Embassy in the Hague.
With a colorful collection of banners and Manu Chaos's music a group of around ten people met in front of the Mexican embassy.
Our spokesperson entered the embassy with a letter, a pack of Zapatista coffee and a police officer. "What's up with the coffee?" He inquired.
After a heated discussion with the legal adviser about the conditions in Chiapas and the political dimensions of Mexico, even the adviser had to agree that the current political hierarchy in Mexico isn't working out. He pointed out that federal governors have too much power and are very vulnerable to corruption. Yet he said the conditions in Chiapas are slowly changing and it will take a very long time to see some progress. We pointed out that this mindset is the main issue why the problem hasn't been solved yet. We left him with these ideas and a pack of genuine Zapatista coffee.
----------- The letter to the ambassador
Dear Mr. Ambassador,
"Five centuries of horror have not been able to exterminate these communities or their 1000-year-old ways of working and living in human solidarity and in communion with nature."
Today the 17th November of 2010 we celebrate the 27th anniversary of the EZLN. We are presenting you this letter on behalf of a community of individuals and organizations in the Netherlands concerned with recent incidents in the state of Chiapas.
The building of autonomy by the Zapatista peoples and communities in Chiapas has demonstrated that another way of organizing and governing ourselves is possible.
We support the ideas of the Zapatista peoples which signifie defiance against the state and we want you to acknowledge and respect the progress of constructing autonomous communities.
Recent events in 2010 have shown that the people in Chiapas are still being oppressed and are under permanent harassment by different paramilitary groups.
Among the recent attacks that have been denounced by the Good Government Juntas are:
In La Realidad, in April 2010, there were threats of new evictions of communities in Montes Azules, under the ecological pretext of the defence of the biosphere reserve, but the Zapatista communities have stated that "We love the land, take care of it, work it and defend it. We are ready to defend it at all costs".
In La Garrucha, in Ocosingo, in May 2010, aggressors originating from Peña Limonar arrested five Zapatista support bases: Evelio Montejo Hernández, Manuel Gutierrez Lopez, Luis Gutierrez Vazquez, Pedro Hernandez and Narciso Gutiérrez Gutiérrez Jiménez. There are also 9 people missing.
In Choles de Tumbalá, near Palenque, in the first days of June, 79 members of Xinich official,
supporting the aggressors of the area, seized the land of the Zapatista support bases, caused a fire, fabricated crimes, invaded lands and threatened the victims with death, as well as threatening to invade more land with the support of the security forces.
In the highlands, caracol of Oventik, in the community of El Pozo, on June 21, a group of
approximately 240 offenders (PRI and PRD) cut off the water and electricity supply. Armed with
machetes, hoes, and sticks, they fractured the skulls of Miguel and Manuel Hernández Pérez, damaged 5 Zapatista support bases and destroyed one. Three health promoters were detained by the police when they tried to rescue the wounded: Francisco Velasco Mendez, Sebastian Hernandez and Francisco Gómez Santiz Mendez.
At the end of August Zapatistas from Pamalá, in the municipality of Sitalá, had informed the JBG that, Manuel Vázquez had been forcibly ordered by the authorities and leaders of the political parties in San Marcos and Pamalá to dismantle the autonomous school. The authorities told him that they were then going to attack other communities which had autonomous schools. The JBG stated that "the purpose of these attacks is to prevent the education of our children and to stop the progress of construction of our autonomy."
On September 9, 30 people from the political parties PRI, PRD and PVEM, armed with machetes and firearms, violently broke into the houses of the Zapatista families in San Marcos Avilés, forcing these families to leave their homes and abandon all their possessions. 170 men, women and children became refugees in the mountains, enduring throughout the recent torrential rains, hunger, cold, sleeplessness, mud and the fear of attacks on women and children.
Throughout Mexico, the detentions, extra judicial executions and disappearances of social activists, along with widespread repression, have gone hand in hand with militarization and the creation of paramilitary groups, particularly aimed against indigenous autonomy in Chiapas, Guerrero, Michoacan and Oaxaca.
For these reasons, we will continue to denounce this counterinsurgency strategy and support the autonomous Zapatista indigenous communities.
We are ending this letter with a direct quote from our comrades in Chiapas to let their voices be heard as well: "We the Zapatistas do not bother anybody. We do not evict our compas from the political parties. We do not persecute anyone. We do not steal the land of our brother and sister farmers, nor do we take any other property from other poor people; we only defend what is ours, and our rights; we live and eat through our own work and sweat, and we want to fight for true democracy, freedom and justice for everyone. These are our crimes as Zapatistas."
Sincerely,

Akcja ta byla proba zdobycia nowego miejsca dla osob, ktore musialy wyprowadzic sie po przegranej sprawie o zasklotowany budynek na terenie kampusu uniwersyteckiego w Utrecht. Byl to jednoczesnie protest przeciw polityce mieszkaniowej w miescie Utrecht, gdzie pokoje i mieszkania sa bardzo drogie i trudno znalezc mieszkanie do wynajecia, a takze protest przeciw nowemu, prawu ktore faworyzuje anty-skloty. We wrzesniu 2009 z budynku przy ulicy Koningin Wilhelminalaan 7 zostalo usunietych okolo 100 studentow, bo budynek nie spelnia norm bezpieczenstwa przeciwpozarowego. Od jakiegos czasu ten olbrzymi kompleks jest anty-sklotem. Tylko 3 pietro jednej czesci kompleksu jest w uzytku. Mieszcza sie tam biura firm, ktore maja umowe z firma anty-skloterska (Anti-Kraak.nl). Artykul i zdjecia: http://indymedia.nl/nl/2010/10/70800.shtml W poniedzialek (01.11) zostal zasklotowany budynek w Amsterdamie.

W Holandii istnieja firmy anty-skloterskie, ktore wynajmuja budynek osobie ewentualnie kilku osoba. Robia to na prosbe wlasciciela, ktory obawia sie, ze budynek moze byc okupowany przez sklotersow. W praktyce najczesciej w olbrzymich budynkach, w ktorych moze mieszkac kilkanascie lub kilkadziesiat osob, mieszka jeden lub kilka anty-sklotersow. Czesto po wyrzuceniu, sklotersow z budynku jest on zasiedlany anty-sklotersem, aby uniemozliwic ponowna okupacje. | |

Holandia: Raport z demonstracji skloterskich
Dnia 1-ego pazdziernika 2010 weszlo w zycie prawo zakazujace sklotowania budynkow w Holandii. Ponizej (spozniony) raport z demonstracji w Amsterdamie (01.10) i Nijmegen (02.10).
Dnia 01.10 odbyla sie nie zalegalizowana demonstracja w Amsterdamie. Wzielo w niej udzial miedzy 800 a 1000 osob z calej Holandii, glownie z Amsterdamu. Kilka dni przed wejsciem ustawy w zycie prezydent Amsterdamu oglosil, ze w ciagu najblizszych miesiecy dokona ewikcji 200 sklotow (!). Liczba sklotow w samym Amsterdamie szacowana jest na 300, a liczba sklotersow na okolo 1500 osob (to i tak mniej niz 10% liczby sklotersow w latach 80-tych, ktorych w tych czasach bylo okolo 20 tysiecy w samym Amsterdamie).
Od poczatku demonstracji sytuacja miedzy policja a sklotersami byla napieta. W pewnym momencie, demonstracja stanela i przy dzwiekach utworu Judas Priest "Break The Law" kilka osob zasklotowalo budynek. Pozostale osoby, zgromadzily sie pod zasklotowanym budynkiem, ktory byl tylko 50 metrow od komisariatu policji. W pewnym momencie policja probowal wejsc pomiedzy zgromadzonych, ale zdecydowana reakcja uniemozliwila te probe. Po okolo 30 minutach zgromadzeni postatnowili kontynuowac demonstracje. W kierunku policji polecialo kilka butelek. Policja zaatakowala demonstrujacych kiedy ci zblizyli sie do skrzyzowania ulic. Kilkuminutowy opor sklotersow bardzo zaaskoczyl policje, nie byli w stanie uzyc psow i nie mogac opanowac sytuacji policja postanowila zaatakowac demonstracje od tylu, wysylac w tym celu policje na koniach. Trzeba dodac, ze ulice w Holandii sa bardzo waskie, co sprzyja demonstrujacym, bo policja ma ograniczone pole manewru. Sklotersi rozpierzchli sie na wszystkie kierunki, w obawie przed ponownym atakiem policji konnej, kilka osob przewrocilo auto na srodek ulicy, ktos wybil kilka szyb w komisariacie policji. Wiekszosc sklotersow, wycofala sie do waskiej uliczki przy ktorej chwile wczesniej zasklotowano budynek. Wybudowano barykade z drewnianych lawek i ja podpalono. Zgromadzona w waskiej uliczce policja byl atakowana kostka brukowa przez okolo godzine. Grupa tajnikow probowal podejsc, aby rozpoznac sytuacje, ale ze strachu wycofali sie. Glownie to tajniacy aresztuja osoby w czasie demonstracji w Holandii, ale 1-ego pazdziernika nie bylo to mozliwe. Policja na koniach tez probowala rozproszyc atakujacy policje tlum, ale ta proba tez sie nie powiodla. Po zawiedzionych probach opanowania sytuacji przy uzyciu standardowych narzedzi policyjnych (psy, konie, tajniacy), zdecydowano sie na uzycie gazu lzawiacego. Policja w Holandii nie uzywala gazu lzawiacego przez 10 lat lub wiecej. Znalezione luski po gazie miale daty uplywu waznosci w 2007 roku (!). Gdy chmura gazu stala sie bardzo intensywna demonstrujacy zaczeli sie wycofywac. Wsrod wycofujacych sie odkryto tajniaka, ktory dostal solidnego kopniaka w tylek, chwile po tym policja zaczela sie zjezdzac ze wszystkich kierunkow, a zgromadzeni uciekac. Jeden z radiowozow najechal na stope sklotersa, a inni widzac to zaczeli rekoma wskazywac na ulice, aby uswiadomic kierowcy, zeby sie wycofal. Niektorzy atakowali ten radiowoz, a chwile pozniej tworzyly sie tylne drzwi i policjanci (nie wiedzac, ze radiowoz najechal na sklotersa) chcieli wyskoczyc ze srodka, ale tajniacy dali im znak, aby tego nie robili. W czasie wydarzen 1-ego pazdziernika zostala ranna nieznana liczba sklotersow, w tym jedna osoba bardzo powaznie. 19-letnia Ruby zostala uderzona wielokrotnie poilicyjna palka w glowe, ma on peknieta czaszke na dlugosci 10 centymetrow (!). Jej adwokat zlozyl juz doniesienie do prokuratury o probe zabojstwa jej przez policjantow. W zamieszkach zostalo rannych kilku policjantow oraz 4 konie.
W Holandii policja uzywa psow i koni w czasie demonstracji i jest to powazny problem dla wielu osob, ktore sa wegetarianami badz weganami. Po 1-wszym pazdzienika toczyla sie bardzo goraca dyskusja ne ten temat. Jedni uwazaja, ze nie powinno sie rzucac kamieniami badz innymi rzeczmi w policje, bo mozna zranic zwierze, a inni (w tym rowniez weganie i wegetarianie) uwazaja, ze to policja przyprowadza na demonstracje zwierzeta i uzywa ich przeciw ludziom jako bardzo niebezpiczne narzedzie i zaatakowani maja prawo sie bronic.
Budynek zasklotowany w czasie piatkowej (01.10) demonstracji w Amsterdamie, przetrwal do poniedzialku (04.10). Policja zmobilizowala olbrzymie sily do ewikcji, wlacznie z helikopterem. Po wejsciu do srodka nie zastali nikogo. Skotersi prawdopodbnie uciekli po dachu.

W dniu 2-ego pazdziernika odbyla sie demonstracja w miescie Njimegen. W demonstracji bralo udzial okolo 600-800 osob, byla ona legalna. Urzed Miasta i policja nie zgodzily sie na trase demonstracji przez centrum miasta i uczestnicy byli zmuszeni isc trasa wokol centrum Nijmegen. Tego dnia policja zmobilizowala wieksze sily niz poprzedniego dnia w Amsterdamie, bylo tez bardzo duzo tajniakow. Po zatoczeniu kola i powrocie do parku, czyli punktu startowego, czesc demonstrujacych (okolo 150 osob) postanowila kontynuowac protest w centrum miasta, po przejsciu okolo 50-100 metrow zostali oni zatrzymani i zaatakowani przez policje. Policja na koniach rowniez zaatakowala protestujacych w wyniku czego jedna osoba stracil kciuka (!). Gdy protestujacy zorientowali sie, ze z tylu sa gromadzone sily policji, postanowili wycofac sie do parku. Wkrotce policja oglosila koniec demonstracji i nakazala zgromadzonym rozejsc sie. Policja wkroczyla do parku i zaczela przeganiac demonstujacych. Kilka osob zostalo aresztowanych, a niektore z osob byly bite przez tajniakow w radiowozie. Na stacji kolejowej policja sila wepchnela grupe sklotersow do pociagu kopiac ich i bijac palkami.

Demo against discrimination on Lowlands festival -video + letter
Spirit Of Squatters Collective
Spirit Of Squatters Collective : This is solidarity action(like most of our videos). The solidarity is stronger when it is seen by as many people as possible.So...Please use it ! Pass this info to everybody who could be interested !!!
Feel free to embed,link it,send it,screen it etc. Use it=don't loose it. Reclaim the media with us !
... So get inspired. TOGETHER WE ARE STRONGER !!!
http://www.youtube.com/user/spiritofsquatters Letter send to The Security Company:
Dear Sir, Madam,
Our reason for being here today is the fact that we are concerned about the events that occurred during the Lowlands festival regarding people, mostly with the Polish nationality, that had been collecting cups. We are shocked about the fact that employees of "The Security Company" had kicked out around 30 people of the Polish nationality from the festival terrain without their personal belongings. The reason for this being that they had been collecting too many plastic cups.
In our opinion it was a highly discriminatory practice!
One woman who was detained by "The Security Company" was treated brutally; she was thrown on the ground and searched by a male security guard . If the security guards had acted correctly, why did they delete all the pictures showing incriminating evidence from the mobile phones of other witnesses?
The first explanation that came from the side of the security guards was that the people removed from the festival had been collecting "too many plastic cups"- but when the organizers emphasized in their statement that there was no limit for collecting cups- the security guards changed their version of what exactly happened and claimed that these people were kicked out because of aggressive behavior.
All the victims had been kicked out without their personal belongings without the right to get them back from the festival camping grounds. A witness, who asked what was happening, was also removed from the festival after showing a Polish ID, despite having collected only two cups. Security randomly asked people that were collecting cups if they where of Dutch nationality. In addition, according to the witnesses of the whole event, the Dutch cup collectors had not been bothered by the security at all. Moreover, detained women were forced to use the toilet with open doors and security staff staring at them.
A female victim in her statement asserted: "I have been also kicked out as one of the first from the festival terrain. The first thing they asked was my nationality. Three security employees took me to a place which, when I think about it now, looked like a place prepared only for the cup collectors. All the people possessing hard drugs or acting very aggressive were took into some other place. I was treated without respect, they pushed me many times and didn't want to talk to me or explain anything. I have seen somebody being beaten up by the security. I took some pictures of it but they confiscated my mobile phone and deleted all of them. I wasn't allowed to go back to the festival camp to get my stuff back. One of the security guards informed me that we are treated like this because we (the Polish cup collectors) are the organized criminal group (!)."
One male victim who has been badly beaten up, has receive a fine for 500 euro's and is charged with the attempted murder of a security guards and imprisoned for three days.
Lowlands Festival is described as a "paradise" by its organizers, but it turned out to be a nightmare for many participants. During this festival Polish people had been confronted with an unprecedented violation of their rights, discrimination and xenophobia. It is clear that the security guards abused their position, and thought they have rights that even the police don't have. To us it is unclear who has the final responsibility for these heavy handed tactics. Were these actions approved by the festival organizers or did the security staff act on their own initiative?
As a response to our accusations, we expect that especially a security company cannot wait until the court will do justice, and will investigate their own working process and company structure. As a security company you have the responsibility to guarantee the professionalism of your services, keeping in mind that you do not have the right to take away personal belongings, remove pictures from mobile phones and violate basic privacy standards. It is up to the professional mediation and natural authority of your workers, to guarantee a good and save environment. In the case of the Lowlands festival "The Security Company" failed to achieve this.
We hope that all the victims of that event will bring this case to the court, because in our opinion the members of the security staff acted unprofessionally and furthermore showed a high level of disrespect and xenophobia towards people of Polish nationality.
In our opinion the whole case remains unfinished and we as an international group of activists will seek to justify and clarify it till the end.

The people from the Rozbrat collective are coming to talk about their long-term strategy concerning the collective, their initiatives, actions, protests etc. and of course they will explain everything about their struggle to keep the Rozbrat squat!  The Rozbrat collective originated in regular squat that was occupied in 1994 in the town of Poznan. It started as a squat where people could live and organize some punk concerts, but has grown to be a very active political-social center. It is one of the most important and interesting places on the anarchist map of Poland. The Rozbrat collective initiates plenty of activities but is under threat of eviction since the beginning of 2009. However, the Rozbrat collective has since then won two battles to keep the squat. The first battle was in May 2009 and the second one in March 2010. The protests were quite large according to polish standards. The one in 2009 had around 1500 people joining in and in 2010 there were around a 1000 people. This second demo had a more militant character. Until now potential buyers are afraid to buy the ground where the Rozbrat squat is situated.

Demonstracja przeciwko dyskryminacji na Lowlands.
Dla prasy
Demonstracja przeciwko dyskryminacji.
Piątek, 03.09.2010 o 16.30
pod firmą Security
Bouwerij 30 1085 XX Amstelveen koło Amsterdamu
Demonstracja przeciwko dyskryminacji narodowościowej wielu obcokrajowców, głównie Polaków podczas festiwalu Lowlands. Ochroniarze z firmy "Security Company" wyrzucili wielu ze zbieraczy kubków, pod pretekstem, że mieli ich za dużo. Jednocześnie Holenderscy zbieracze kubków nie byli niepokojeni gdy tylko okazali Holenderski dokument lub zaczęli mówić po holendersku. Więcej niż 30 osób zostało wyrzuconych z festiwalu nawet bez możliwości wzięcia ze sobą swych rzeczy osobistych. Jeden z zatrzymanych został brutalnie pobity przez około 10 ochroniarzy. Zamiast wysłać go do szpitala przekazali go do komisariatu policji, gdzie spędził 3 dni. Teraz jest zwolniony, ale musi stawić się przed sądem 11.09.2010, bo jest oskarżony o usiłowanie zabójstwa (???)
Jedna kobieta została powalona na ziemię i obszukana przez mężczyzn. Czuła się wstrząśnięta. Wszystkim którym udało się sfotografować lub sfilmować te wydarzenia ochroniarze zabierali aparaty i telefony by potem skasować zdjęcia. Czyżby aż tak obawiali się prawdy ?
Domagamy się od organizatorów, by w przyszłości stanęli jasno przeciwko tego typu dyskryminacji ze względu na narodowość czy rasę.
