Alternative Libertaire Paris Nord-Est invites you on Wednesday, October 3 for an
apero-debate to discuss our fears, anger, our hopes, our convictions and our practices. At
Lieu Dit (6 rue Sorbier, Paris 20th, metro Ménilmontant) from 19:30. ---- On September 8,
150,000 protesters took to the streets against global warming. In the fall of 2017, the
#MeToo movement mobilized a large number of women against sexual violence. In the spring
of 2016, during the mobilization against the Labor Law, thousands of people gathered to
participate in Nuit Debout. ---- These movements are similar because they have allowed
many people to express themselves, say "no" and take action outside parties, associations
and unions ... but these movements are similar too. because they have not organized
themselves and they have not managed to build, in the long run, a resistance capable of
shaking power.
So how to go from isolated anger to collective organization without losing the dynamics of
these new movements ? How to organize today to allow everyone to express themselves and
find their place ?

On the evening of May 12th, 2018 - the day before Mother's Day - our friend and comrade
Pablo accepted a bike courier gig that would offer extra money for working in inclement
weather at night - app based food delivery service Caviar. In the darkness and rain of
that night his tire became lodged in a storm drain leading to the fatal accident which
took his life. Pablo was 34 years old. He was full of life and love. He influenced and
deeply touched the lives of so many. His many close friends, comrades, family members and
loved ones will forever miss him, but carry him with them as they were all deeply
influenced by his beautiful heart, mind and life. ---- Pablo was born and raised in Miami
to working class Argentinian parents and the oldest of four brothers. He was a founding
member of Miami Autonomy and Solidarity, a high school teacher and workplace organizer,
and played an important role in the founding of Black Rose/Rosa Negra Anarchist
Federation. Moving to Philadelphia in 2013 he participated in anti-police organizing and
became a member of Philly Socialists.
Today, October 1st, 2018, would have been Pablo's 35th birthday and in celebration of his
work and ideas we are releasing "The Pablo Barbanegra Reader" of his political writings.
We honor his life - taken too soon! - and ask you to consider how to live your life as
truly as he did, driven from the deepest faith in and connections to a heart full of love
and ideals of freedom, equality, solidarity and liberation.
Viva Pablo! Viva Osito!

We do not forget ... ---- The 2 of October of 1992 were marked by the greater slaughter
that the Brazilian State realized through the Military Police in a prison. A total of 111
people were killed in Carandiru, 89 of them still awaiting the first hearing, all
sentenced to death when São Paulo governor Luiz Antônio Fleury Filho gave the order
through his security secretary, Pedro Franco de Campos, to the Military Police invade the
prison to contain a riot in the pavilions of the prison. ---- The military police were
present through the 1st Shock Battalion, headed by former commander of the Route, Antonio
Chiari, 2nd Battalion, under the command of Edson Faroro, 3rd Battalion, under the command
of Edson Faroro, Special Tactical Actions Group ( Gate), commanded by Major Wanderley
Mascarenhas and the Special Operations Command (COE), leading the operation was Colonel
Ubiratan Guimarães, at the invitation of Carandiru director José Ismael Pedrosa.
Most of the dead were killed at Pavilion 9, where the primary and detained defendants were
awaiting their first hearing. After the massacre, the majority of those killed were shot
in the head or chest, which confirms who were victims of summary executions.
No military police officer who participated in the slaughter was punished, although some
were sentenced between 2013 and 2014, the sentencing sentence was annulled last year, of
the 74 policemen who were indicted by the massacre, 58 were promoted and 7 continue to act
in the streets of Sao Paulo.
... It still happens!
25 years after the greatest massacre in the history of the Brazilian penitentiary system,
due to failures and negligence of the State, it is not known for sure the number of people
imprisoned in Brazil is estimated to be more than 622 thousand people, which places Brazil
as the fourth country which he has imprisoned most in the world.
The year that marks a quarter of a century of impunity for the Carandiru Massacre,
recorded in its first fifteen days a number of dead that surpasses the Massacre of 1992,
in the first half of January of 2017 Brazil already had more than 130 violent deaths in
prisons , on the first day of the year 56 people were killed in the prison complex Anísio
Jobim, a private prison in Amazonas administered by Umanizzare Prisional Management and
Services Ltda., followed by the massacre at the Monte Cristo Agricultural Penance in
Roraima, which left 33 dead, and after the massacre in the penitentiary of Alcaçuz in Rio
Grande do Norte, leaving 26 dead, other deaths happened in São Paulo, Santa Catarina, Paraná.
The overcrowding of the prisons has created Dantesque scenes, as in the case of Rio Grande
do Sul where people accumulate in front of shacks handcuffed inside vehicles, on stair
handrails and even in garbage dumps await for weeks the release of places in prisons.
Massacres such as the Carandiru or the more recent leap to the eye, gain visibility,
because there is no hiding hundreds of dead at a single time, but the state has quieter
devices to operate its necropolítica, when the state does not kill, it leaves to die
through untreated diseases that spread through prisons such as tuberculosis, whose
uncontrolled spread in prisons has placed Brazil on the list of the 20 countries with the
highest incidence of tuberculosis in the world.
Faced with the massacres and overcrowding, there are those who affirm the existence of a
crisis, thus accusing a malfunction of the Brazilian prison system, which some insist on
calling a crisis, we call it the State Project, because super-entrapment is just another
side of the genocide of the black and peripheral people in Brazil.
For the end of the genocide of the black and peripheral people!
For a society free from prisons!

The report delivered by Italian anarchist Carlo Cafiero at the Congress of the Jurassic
Federation of the International Association of Workers in Chaux-de-Fonds is one of the
first surviving documents outlining the principles of anarchist communism. The text was
published in the Geneva newspaper Le Revolt in 1880. According to this report, the
Jurassic Federation approved the acceptance of the positions of anarchist communism.

In 2012, it was estimated that between 330,000 and 360,000 of our brothers and sisters are
enslaved. Bangladesh was tenth on a list that ranked the countries in which slavery was
practiced. Slavery has historically been concentrated in the countryside, where
semi-feudal conditions and traditions are strongest. Much of the land and power in the
countryside is held by landlords. The masses are so poor that we live on a razor's edge.
Many of our families live under constant threat that we will lose everything. Many of our
families have already lost everything. We are driven off the land. We are hungry. We are
sick. We fall into debt that we can never escape from. Ourselves and our children become
slaves to the local landlords, userers, capitalists, and criminal organizations. Many flee
to the city for a better life only to be met with dissappointment. There the feudal
barbarism mingles and mixes with the cruety of liberal capitalism. The innocent suffer the
most. Our children are turned into beasts of burden by the overlords of the country and
city. Or women and daughters are stolen and placed into bondage by sex traffickers. Their
bodies are sometimes exported to be consumed on the global market. The bodies of our
people are just another commodity to the empire.
The First World is happy with slavery of our people. They do not have to feel or see our
pain. They are pleased with the cheap goods that fill their homes. The global corporations
say that it is good for business to keep the population controlled. Our sweat and tears
fuels the prosperity of their empire. The corrupt politicians do not care about our pain.
Their ears do not hear our cries, but only the orders of their imperial masters who pay
them well to keep us in chains. The Islamists do not care about the poor, they declare
slavery is acceptable in their twisted minds. They would have us be slaves to their
barbaric caliph who feeds on the blood of the people. The feudalists and local capitalists
do not care, they are the ones who hold the whip for the empire. The liberal NGOs use our
pain to extend capitalist control over our lives.
We say "no." No to slavery, poverty, hunger, violence, disease, ignorance, cruelty. We are
the ones who create the wealth. We are the ones who work. We are the ones who grow the
food. We are the vast majority. They need us. We do not need them. We can have the power
if we have the courage. We say "yes." Yes to liberty, land, homes, prosperity, health,
jobs, education, dignity. Today we planting seeds in ourselves, in our families, in our
communities. Total liberation, total revolution, for our children and their children. We
will harvest a revolution, a better world. The future is our's. One fight. One land. One
people. One organization. One leadership. One truth.
We, as anarchists, are striving for a better society, where each one gives according to
his own possibilities and takes according to his own needs, without a state, without
masters nor slaves. Join the fight with us, for the social revolution.

If the intention is good (and much preferable to mass tourism, indifferent, harmful and
invasive), and if punctual advances are made in a particular village or district, the aid
thus provided has harmful effects, and 'inscribed in a system which remains of colonial
form. ---- Moreover, the colonial hell has been paved with good intentions humanists, who
accompanied him and gave popular colonial adventure of the XIX th and XX th centuries. The
influx of aid into poor countries creates a system of dependence and depreciation.
Residents of assisted countries are thus more likely to ask and wait for help rather than
self-organization, or to pressure their governments. ---- How to believe in our abilities,
as a people, when for generations, all public goods (roads, markets, schools,
dispensaries, wells, etc.) were brought to us by foreigners ? And when our political or
traditional powers bow to the foreign representatives hoping to pick a few crumbs of their
wealth ?
The hand that gives is always above that which receives. And it is the most difficult to
accept, when we want to act for a world of equality, and that we find ourselves in a
situation archidominante, and especially privileged. Because compared to the "
beneficiaries " of our help, we fall under the privileges, starting with that of being
able to travel freely at home, and even to intend to go to help them ! In addition to the
difficulty of finding a " right " posture in aid, neither paternalistic nor ethnocentric,
the problem is also the lack of political reading of the situation.
But the situation of current inequality results largely from the colonial policy of
yesterday and today ; and " development " is also a political issue ! The peoples were
organized before colonization ; they could still manage in their own way their public
goods and services, their food, their health, their education, their resources, etc.
This would require political change, not just technical or material assistance. But this
transformation can only take place with a change in mentalities, and in particular a (re)
confidence of peoples in their ability to organize, without the help of so-called
developed countries. And it is precisely this trust that is undermined by the influx of
aid from countries that still benefit from the colonial system.
