1 MAYIS MÜCADELE GÜNÜMÜZ
1856 yılında Avustralya’da işçiler, günlük çalışma saatlerinin 8 saate düşürülmesi için eylemler yaptılar. Bir günlük iş bırakma eylemi yaptılar. Eyleme katılım büyük oldu.
1886 yılında Amerikan Emek Federasyonu, günlük 8 saatlik çalışma süresinin 1 Mayıs 1886 yılı itibariyle yasalaştırılması önerisini kabul etti. Chicago’da siyah, beyaz tüm renkten işçiler, çalışma saatlerinin düşürülmesi talebiyle yürüyüşe geçtiler. O zamanlar Luizvil meydanı siyahlara kapalıydı. İşçiler birleşerek tüm bu yasakları kırdılar.
Haymerket’te yapılan eyleme polis saldırdı. Çatışmalar yaşandı. Direnişe önderlik eden 4 işçi idam edilerek öldürüldüler. İşçi önderlerinden Albert Persons, af dilemesi karşılığında serbest bırakılması önerisini kabul etmedi. Burjuvazi karşısında eğilmedi.
İşçilerin ve emekçilerin direnerek kazandıkları 1 Mayıs, İkinci Enternasyonal’e bir Fransız işçinin yaptığı öneriyle dünya emekçilerinin birlik, dayanışma ve mücadele günü olarak yüzyıllardan beri anılmaya devam ediyor.
Günümüzde de işçiler sömürülüyor. Dünyada azınlık bir nüfusu oluşturan burjuvazi lüks bir hayat yaşarken, milyonlarca işçi, işsiz ve mülteciler insanca yaşam koşullarından uzak bir şekilde yaşıyorlar.
İşçilerin ve emekçilerin ürettikleri değerlerle silah ticareti yapıyorlar. Haksız savaşlarda gene dünyanın yoksulları öldürülüyor. Enerji kaynaklarını ele geçirmek için yerli halklar mülteci ve göçmen olmaya zorlanıyor. Mülteciler, saatte 1 euroluk işlerde çalıştırılarak sömürülüyorlar. Resedenspflich, lager ve abschubung uygulamalarıyla mülteciler tam bir izolasyon hayatı yaşamaya mahkum ediliyor. Ev kiralarına her ay …read more

Break Deportation Culture – Deportation is criminal and we fight to stop it!

European asylum structures and processes ensure that every refugee is criminalized (for some, even before arriving in Europe). This criminalization is promptly and meticulously processed, and is manifested in various forms of societal and institutional discrimination and racism that ends with deportation. Deportation is criminal. It is criminal not only because of the obvious denial of the deportee’s right to freedom of movement and the right to decide his or abode, but also because the physical and financial cost as well as the long-lasting psychological effects are not reckoned with and provided for by the deportation machinery and its advocates. In the worst cases, some die in the process of being deported while others are either dumped in countries where their lives are in danger or where they are actually killed by the forces they initially fled from. For some years now, the German authorities have been dubiously collaborating with foreign Embassies like the Nigerian Embassy in Berlin to issue Travel certificates to nationals from other African countries that are then deported to Nigeria with no guarantee of safety whatsoever. Although this scandal …read more

Der Refugee Club Impulse ist ein Zusammenschluss von Geflüchteten und nicht Geflüchteten Kunstschaffenden, der kulturelle Bedürfnisse, Fähigkeiten und Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten von Geflüchteten selbst, kollektiv und basisdemokratisch organisiert und realisiert werden. Unsere Grundlage ist das gemeinsam erarbeitete Manifest: Nobody gives us a Voice – we take it!

Der Refugee Club Impulse hat ein Koordinationskomitee das paritätisch von Geflüchteten und nicht Geflüchteten Kulturschaffenden und Akteuren aus der ‘Flüchtlingsarbeit’ besetzt wird.

Mit unserer ersten Produktion ‘Do Butterflies have Borders?’ hatten wir das Ziel, den Geflüchteten Impulse zu geben um gegen die ‘Dead Time’ oder Depressionen vorzugehen, die viele Geflüchteten in den Heimen ergreift.

Unsere zweite Produktion ‘Letters Home’ versuchte das Forscher/Beforschter – Verhältnis umzudrehen und den Blick und die Beobachtungen von Geflüchteten auf die deutsche Gesellschaft und ihr Verhältnis zu der Fremde auf die Bühne zu bringen.

Unser Drittes Projekt zielte darauf ab, die Isolation der Geflüchteten in den Heimen zu durchbrechen und die Sichtbarkeit der Geflüchteten zu erhöhen.

Also ist unser Projekt insofern und auf diese Weise politisch. Unser Beitrag ist es diese Ziele durch kulturelle und künstlerische Mittel zu erreichen. Unsere Arbeit ist politisch aber nicht parteilich. Das soll heißen: wir sehen es nicht als unsere Aufgabe einzugreifen und uns …read more

Supported mal kräftig den @SchulstreikBln und macht Mobi für den (bundesweiten) #Schulstreik am 27. April!

27.04., 11h, S Gesundbrunnen | Azubi, Uni- & Schulstreik gegen Rassismus

Seit über einem Jahr ist der Rassismus in der Offensive.

Eine rechte Bewegung wächst explosiv. Die rassistische AfD fordert den Schießbefehl auf Geflüchtete und bekommt bei Landtagswahlen bis zu 24%! Zehntausende gehen für fremdenfeindliche Forderungen auf die Straße. Rassistische Gewalttaten sind 7 mal so hoch wie noch vor 2 Jahren. Während die Heime brennen und manch einer applaudiert, bewaffnen sich sogenannte „Bürgerwehren“ und üben Gewalt gegen alle aus, die nicht in ihr rechtes Weltbild passen.

Als Reaktion auf den rassistischen Mob passen sich Regierung und Parteien nach rechts an.

Die Lage der Betroffenen scheint für niemanden mehr eine Rolle zu spielen.
Kaum jemand redet mehr über die menschenunwürdigen Lebensbedingungen in den Lagern, über Arbeitsverbot und Bildungszugang. Überall geht es nur darum die Zahl der ankommenden Menschen zu verringern, Länder für sicher zu erklären, damit dorthin wieder abgeschoben werden kann. Die Bundeswehr führt wieder Krieg, gleichzeitig beginnen Massenabschiebungen nach Afghanistan. Anstatt Menschen auf der Flucht vor dem …read more

TURKEY:

Up to 30.000 refugees started heading to Turkey during the last 48 hours, Spiegel Online reports based on the information provided by the volunteers. This follows several attacks by IS at refugee camps in Northern Syria. However, Turkey refuses to let them to cross the border. As already known, Turkey is building a 911km long cement wall along the border which is said to resist missile attacks. According to Human Rights Watch, one third of it has been finished.

GREECE:

IMPORTANT – today we came into possession of a document issued by the Greek authorities (Regional Asylum Office of Lesvos) stating the inadmissibility for international protection to an individual’s claim based on presumption of Turkey as a Safe Third Country. If this continues as a practice, the principle of non-refoulement mentioned in the EU-Turkey agreement will be most certainly breached. The document states:

„(…) the application that she lodged is rejected as inadmissible, because Turkey is considered to be a safe third country for her.
Furthermore, I informed the applicant with the assistance of the interpreter that he has the right to appeal this decision before the Appeals Committees within 5 calendar days starting tomorrow and that the appeal has automatic suspensive …read more
