Message: 1
The Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group is pleased to announce that we have participated
in the launch of a new anti-Fascist organisation. The initial callout is reproduced below.
---- PUSH! Organising and Educating ---- to Build an Anti-Fascist United Front ---- A
callout to unite forces against fascists and the far right ---- In Australia and around
the world, we face a fascist threat. Nazis are returning to the streets of towns and
cities, winning seats in parliaments across Europe and - closer to home - marching openly
under police protection through the streets of Melbourne. Wherever they appear, fascists
spell danger, with local groups such as Blair Cottrell's Lads Society training for combat
and Neil Erickson's Cooks Convicts raiding local councils and intimidating immigrants and
refugees.
While these developments do not mean we are in a fascist state, they are warnings.
Fascists rely on enablers and collaborators in the political mainstream to give them a
platform. The current wave of fascism is no different. From Israel's Netanyahu and the
Philippines' Duterte to the USA's Trump, far right governments light the way for these
emerging fascists. So do fear-mongering mainstream "democrats," from Malcolm Turnbull and
Peter Dutton to Matthew Guy and Daniel Andrews.
Racism lays the foundation for fascism
Australia is a state founded on the theft of Aboriginal land, the denial of the
sovereignty of the people who have been living here for tens of thousands of years, and
genocide to wipe out their communal culture. The capitalists need to propagate racism and
reactionary nationalism to validate their position and pit workers against each other.
Official state racism provides the environment where fascists are encouraged to organise.
Through rallies, elections, social media and think-tanks, fascists seek platforms to
recruit from and normalise their world view, more broadly co-opting conservative or
moderate forces toward their agenda. Following the examples of Hitler and Mussolini, they
aim to build a movement capable of lifting them, and their ideological program, into state
power. This is fascism - a mass movement, whose social base is mainly small business
operators and entrepreneurs (the middle class) but also workers devoid of class
solidarity, desperately looking for a solution to their impoverishment and uncertain futures.
Without capitalism, there would be no fascism
Fascist ideologues feed on their fears and prejudices, harkening to a mythical bygone era
of greatness steeped in reactionary nationalism, white pride and patriarchal family
values. Exploiting deep-seated and systemic racism, sexism, homophobia and xenophobia,
they offer up scapegoats to blame - Muslims and Jews, immigrants and refugees, people of
colour, First Nations, women, disabled people and the LGBTIQ community. However their
prime marks are trade unions and the Left, because these are the movements capable of
uniting and mobilising their targets against them.
Scapegoating deflects attention from the source of ever-widening desperation: the profit
system. When economic crisis becomes so critical that workers and the oppressed resist and
parliamentary democracy can no longer keep the class "peace," the billionaire class will
turn to the fascists. This happened 80 years ago. This economic élite will resort to
fascism again to stave off revolt and save itself. The aim is to crush the working class
so that capitalism can survive.
We can stop this
Hitler himself said that organised resistance could have eliminated the Nazis when they
were still small and weak. But the fragmented labour and Left movements failed to coalesce
into a united front. Fascism beat the working class into submission - assassinating its
leaders, sending millions into concentration campsand forced labour, enforcing "kinder,
küche, kirsche" (children, kitchen, church) on women of the "master race," and smashing
trade unions.
Unity in action is our collective, mutual defence. All of fascists' targets coming
together as organisations and individuals is our weapon against aspiring führers while
they're still small, split and weak. And while we still have rights to organise.
The united front is our collective defence
Our vision is of a united front in which politically divergent groups and individuals
cohere around points of agreement and work together respectfully, collaboratively and
uncompromisingly in the interest of workers and all the oppressed. A united front is about
marching with our own banners and slogans, and striking together.
Democracy and accountability are key to this united strength. Without them, a united front
can't build or last.
Crucial to the united front is the involvement of the union movement, because this is
where workers organise and build collective self-discipline to act in defence of our
class. Union officials are belatedly beginning to recognise the threat. But it is the
members and delegates - the ones facing fascist targeting in their everyday lives - who
are most compelled to push our unions to join.
Open letter from Victorian Trades Hall Council, August 2018. Below is an extract:
"The mighty Victorian union movement is comprised of workers from all walks of life,
united across race and religion. We're a movement built on respect, care and unbreakable
solidarity. We welcome everyone.
Except Nazis."
PUSH! Organising and Educating to Build an Anti-Fascist United Front
PUSH! is a newly formed group committed to working with all other anti-fascists fighting
to defeat this threat. Our member organisations - Freedom Socialist Party, Indigenous
Social Justice Association - Melbourne, Melbourne Anarchist Communist Group and Radical
Women - have long histories of anti-fascist organising, from running National Action out
of Brunswick and later Fawkner and ridding Victoria of the misogynist, homophobic
Blackshirts, to fighting off the current fascist scourge as founding members of Campaign
Against Racism and Fascism.
This is a callout to all organisations and individuals who want to join in democratically
shaping the agreed principles of unity and direction for a collective, united push to
remove the fascist threat and make our communities and movements truly safe.
If you agree or want to talk,
please contact PUSH: email antifascist.push@gmail.com
or contact us on Facebook at Antifascist.Push

After The Market Act , director Stéphane Brizé presents In War, another film about the
world of work. We are at the heart of a PSE plan for safeguarding employment ... Vincent
Lindon is a CGT union representative. Strike, occupation, demonstration ... Everything is
deployed to fight against the closure of this company belonging to a multinational. ----
Xavier Mathieu, former union delegate at Continental, was a technical advisor and we find
many actions that " Les Conti " have conducted to be heard ... But not sufficient to be
able to oppose the closure of factory. ---- There are also allusions to Air France whose
HRD had the torn shirt, and the conflict at PSA with the presence of a union " box "
collaborationist with the boss. ---- This film shows the limited power of employees facing
justice that does not cancel the PSE while the company had made 18 million euros in
profits the previous year ...
The CEO of the firm justifies the closure of the box by invoking a rate of return too low
for shareholders. It follows the " market " and acts legally.
For its part, the " government adviser " does not want to be too " interventionist "
with the boss of the same multinational so as not to give a bad impression to the "
entrepreneurs " who could be foreigners. And to add that it is normal that a company is
created ... and firm !
Faced with this, the employees of the box have only their solidarity to oppose the closure
of the company since they have no help or justice or the government. Blocking the factory,
blocking production, blocking stocks, everything seems to be going well until the
reformist union and the " box " union withdraw from the inter-union fighter. This is
followed by the releasing of the plant by the CRS and the resumption of work for a part of
the employees.
The tragic end pays tribute to the lives of thousands of employees who are victims of
harassment and dismissal. There may be another vision of this epilogue, more optimistic ...
A film that shows that employers can legally ask employees to make sacrifices and then
fire them if the market and the shareholders consider that they are not productive enough.
A film that shows that the fight is not only at the heart of the company but outside and
that it is good for another society that we must fight, for another sharing of wealth,
where the capitalist world does not allow it.

Español Abajo. We reproduce this statement from our comrades in Argentina, Acción
Socialista Libertaria (ASL), on the current struggle for abortion rights. It is estimated
that 500,000 illegal abortions occur each year in Argentina. Around 80,000 people annually
are hospitalized related to post-abortion complications and often face legal punishment as
a result. Abortion remains illegal in Argentina except in except in cases of rape or when
the life or health of the woman is at risk but even under those circumstances abortion
services remain difficult to obtain. In June through August 2018 Argentina's Congress
considered a bill that would have allowed abortion up to 14 weeks which narrowly passed
the lower house Chamber of Deputies but was voted down in the Senate on August 9. This
statement is in response to the vote. #NiUnaMenos
NEITHER A SENATE NOR A LAW WILL SET US FREE
We are convinced that only the struggle and organizing will give us freedom. We don't want
more girls to die from clandestine abortions. What happened on August 8 revealed the
greatness of the feminist movement and the weakness and weariness of the parliament of the
"bourgeois representative" system. Young women, lesbians and trans men will continue to
have abortions; we will continue to come along with them for it to be as safe as possible.
However, those "so-called representatives of the people"[of the Argentinian Senate]that
earn hundreds of thousands of pesos - that only represent businessmen - restricted the
possibility of legalizing abortion; legalizing the right to decide over our own bodies.
In Congress we listened to election speeches, trying to take advantage of a few minutes of
"fame" to win a few new votes. We listened to how they laughed in our faces, how they
denigrated us, how they lied, how they misinformed. We listened and saw how a group of
cynical people, totally distanced from the reality of working class people, sat down - as
if in a social gathering drinking tea - to ramble on and then vote to maintain the chains
they put around our uteruses. What do they know about life and choice?
We are the ones who put our bodies on the line, the ones who suffer cold, hunger, fear
humiliation and pain. We are the ones who take up the sword of "justice" - always
bourgeois and patriarchal - over our heads when we become stigmatized, criminalized and
persecuted. They take our lives in filthy rooms with anything handy to practice an
abortion, after they fill their pockets with the money we're able to put together,
oftentimes, the money for our next meal. We mourn the compañeras that the state murders by
condemning us to secrecy. We had to organize on our own, through sheer grit, to be able to
be there for the pregnant folks that want to make decisions over their bodies and their
lives. We are the ones who raise the money and juggle to be able to charge a phone, one of
us goes upstairs, another one buys what's necessary to help the compañera that wants to
have the abortion. We are the ones that carry on our shoulders the dozens of cases and who
sometimes collapse because we work ourselves out until our heads explode. We're the ones
who answer calls, give hugs and dry tears because the hypocritical social condemnation
weighs over the girls who want to make their decisions. What do they know from their
comfortable benches?
They're only interested in maintaining the business of illegal abortions that includes
private practices and the international trafficking of medications: 15 million pesos a
year just in Argentina. Tangled up in this web is also the Laboratorios Beta (in Buenos
Aires), the only company that manufactures and commercializes Misoprostol[medication that
induces abortion]; a giant company that moves one billion pesos with it's monopoly. The
doctors then charge between 30 and 50 thousand pesos[roughly $1,000-1,600 US dollars]to
practice an abortion in a clinic. They're just interested in making profits at the expense
of our bodies. Besides maintaining the church's power, this hypocritical institution,
which fills itself with money from the state and represses women's and pregnant people's
right to choose - but don't say anything, on the contrary, endorses priests to rape children.
From ASL (Acción Socialista Libertaria) we're calling for, today more than ever, the
strengthening of the political, financial and logistic support of the women's and gender
non-conforming people's counselling and groups that accompany abortion cases. It is these
groups who, all over the country, provide safe information on the use of Misoprostol and
reduce risks. Likewise, as health workers we have no other alternative than continuing to
commit to deepening union organizing to guarantee access to the legal abortions options
that exist today and that they are now trying to adjust.
The streets are increasingly filling with green[the color of the abortion rights
movement]as thousands of comrades are coming out to take a stand. The streets have spoken
and, socially, the stigma is beginning to dissipate. We must think about what kind of
democracy we want; clearly, representative democracy is not working. The institutions of
this bourgeois democracy will never be on our side. Just as the state doesn't address the
crisis, it also doesn't guarantee anyone's freedom. Let's opt for creating a direct
democracy of the people and to building true self-defense and to face our struggles when
necessary. We are not alone anymore, we're all together, we are millions.
Long live those who fight! / ¡Arriba lxs que luchan!

Third and last novel of his trilogy on the labor struggles of Le Havre, Philippe Huet
plunges us this time into the electrical atmosphere that precedes the social explosion of
1936. ---- We find again the journalist Louis Albert Fournier and the writer Céline
already crossed before when he was doctor under the name of Louis-Ferdinand Destouches.
But it is also the rabid metallo of 1922, Victor Bailleuil, that one finds in the Fire
with the powders. He is now employed at Bréguet, a large aviation company, held with an
iron fist by the nationalist league of Croix de Feu. There will never be anything
happening at Breguet, it was said, no tradition of struggles, too much employer repression
... And yet, clandestinely, the reunited CGT has infiltrated the company and patiently
works for the organization. of the struggle. While management decided to fire two workers
who participated in the 1 st May, the strike goes off in solidarity and takes a particular
turn when it is decided to occupy the factory ! In particular the workshop of Breguet 730,
prototype seaplane, jewel of the company.
As for the two previous novels, difficult to differentiate between the historical and
fictional as the author is inspired by the facts and characters of the time. For example,
Huet modeled the character of René Haudouin in the novel on that of Louis Eudier,
secretary of the CGT trade union metals Le Havre in 1936 and future deported. It is he who
will propose to the workers of Bréguet the idea of the occupation and it is this factory
that will thus launch on May 11 the original tone of the strike movement of 1936.
To finish this trilogy, the writer seems to take the time to develop more in depth the
personal stories of his heroes, love stories among others. The labor and trade union
struggle is less prominent than in The Quays of Wrath and The Rioters (see AL of January
2018). Nevertheless, it remains the backbone of the story and the link that unites all the
characters. Also, Le Havre in the background, its bistros, its port, its working class
neighborhoods ... Huet again so to close this superb historical trilogy, informative and
explosive. To read absolutely !

Anarchist movement throughout the history of its existence is subject to constant
repression by its main enemy - the state. Any government, both "democratic" and
"socialist," set and aims to eliminate and suppress the libertarian movement in all parts
of the world. Chicago-1886, Kronstadt-1921, Barcelona-1939, Prague-1968 - only a small
list of bloody dates in the history of the movement. Thousands of fates have been crushed
by prisons, hundreds of people have disappeared. ---- Despite all this, the anarchist
movement is alive and continues its struggle for freedom. Unfortunately, prisons and
states exist to this day. All over the world, our comrades and comrades are persecuted and
imprisoned. Our response to repression is solidarity!
We have prepared a small zine about political prisoners and want to present it to you, and
also read stories about those who for the ideas of equality and freedom were imprisoned.
The program also includes joint creation of postcards, tea with vegan biscuits and a sea
of pleasant intercourse:)
Until everyone is free! joins the action!
