Illegal immigrant - Montpellier - Another Future ---- Meeting and discussion about the 
struggles of migrants and their supporters ---- Faced with repression, evictions, 
emergency, closure of borders, what struggles are led by migrants and their supporters? 
How are they organized? What claims are laid? What are the challenges and how to address
them? ---- Saturday, december 12, at 19h, in the bookstore the bad reputation (20 terral 
street) ---- To feed the debate, several comrades of the CGA, es invested in these 
struggles, we will discuss: ---- - In Paris: the story of the many struggles in recent 
months by the migrants and the collective support to migrants, resistance and solidarity 
which are organized, particularly against expulsions of migrants from camps are linked (as 
in the Chapel at the Lycée Jean-Quarré, etc.) ...

- Le Mans: testimony of a successful struggle for regularization of a threatened student 
expulsion; present a group of support to the struggles of migrants and refugees-es, and 
light on the situation in one of the "respite centers" that the state is taking to relieve 
the "jungle" of Calais.

- Lyon: solidarity actions (support meals, organization of collecting donations, etc.) and 
organizing events to deconstruct the dominant discourse heard that "no human being is 
illegal" and called for solidarity.

- Ventimiglia, this summer: presentation of the local context, the No Border camp run by 
migrants-are blocked on the Italian-French border and their supporters, repression he 
suffered, and his violent dismantling Italian police on 30 September.

While years in laws and security measures are piling years to transform the violence of 
exile in crime, whereas for several months tens of thousands of people are stranded on the 
borders of Fortress Europe and thousands others die trying to access them, European 
states, and particularly the French socialist government, have staged their alleged 
humanism and responsibility, announcing divide 120,000 migrants to actually better file, 
repress, lock, expel tou-te-s other still increasing their repressive arsenal.
In France, and more widely across the European Union, the firmness of speech against 
migrants which now prevails. European states agree to automate the sorting and fichages of
migrants by installing "hot spots" on their external borders and put pressure on the 
countries of transit and origin to accept the mass of references 'expelled es and prevent 
migrants to arrive to Europe.

In this context emerge many migrants struggle, often overlooked, which may take various 
forms, depending on local issues, aspirations and demands of the people concerned-es, 
supporting organizations, etc.

Let's be many-makers to come we inform and discuss, to better arm itself for the struggle, 
enrich our thinking and consider possible in all their complexity!

Saturday, December 12, from 19h at the library The Bad Reputation (20 Terral Street).
The discussion will be followed by a shared meal.
