Libertarian Alternative, represented by its Anti-Patriarchate Commission donated 1,000 
euros to Jinwar, the women's village of Rojava. ---- Hazal Karakus, an activist of the 
Kurdish Women's Movement in France (TJK-F), came to meet AL women during the April 
anti-patriarchal training weekend and explained why the Jinwar Women's Village had been 
founded and its operation. ---- Karakus gave a presentation on Jinwar, jinology (science 
of women's liberation), Kobanê, democratic confederalism and ongoing hunger strikes, and 
answered questions from participants. Karakus received a check for 1,000 euros to be sent 
to the village of Jinwar and thanked Alternative Libertarian on behalf of the women of Jinwar.
The Jinwar Project was launched in 2016 by women's institutions in Rojava, who searched 
for examples of historic and current villages and women's living spaces, and started the 
construction of the village.

On March 10, 2017, the foundations of the village were laid. The construction of Jinwar 
was completed in 2018 and the village opened on November 25th.

Meeting at a joint convention, we activists from AL and CGA decided to found a new 
revolutionary organization: the Libertarian Communist Union. ---- At a time when the 
crisis of capitalism is growing, we would like to impose a choice between the liberal 
bourgeoisie in power and the far right in ambush. ---- We refuse it and we affirm on the 
contrary that it is necessary today to carry another project of society based on direct 
democracy, self-management and federalism. ---- We do not want a world tailored to those 
who possess wealth, nor a society padlocked, militarized and increasingly under digital 
surveillance. ---- Here as elsewhere, we stand in solidarity with migrants and refugees 
and we stand with those who want to break down borders and break imperialism, 
neo-colonialism and particularly Françafrique.

In France, the anger of the yellow vests reminded the power, and with brilliance, that the 
class struggle was more than ever relevant.

The government has not been mistaken in using against this movement of brutal state violence.

We have taken all our part in the mobilization of the Yellow Vests as we take part, and 
actively, in the class struggle by building our struggles, our strikes, our unions.

Unceasingly, in our workplaces, we resist everyday capitalist exploitation. And the 
General Strike remains our order of the day.

At school, we fight social selection more and more.

The Libertarian Communist Union will stand alongside those who are fighting to destroy 
patriarchy. In our ranks as in society, we will fight oppression of sex and gender, sexism 
and LGBTIphobia.

Faced with racist mechanics, we will be on the offensive and we stand in solidarity with 
the fight against police violence.

We will continue to march with protesters who take to the streets to denounce climate 
change and the collapse of the biodiversity of which the capitalists are responsible.

Open to all those who want to build another society, the Libertarian Communist Union is 
the tool that we will forge every day , in the cities and neighborhoods where we live, in 
the countryside, to draw tomorrow an emancipated future of the world. 'exploitation and 
all dominations.

A future that bears a name and in which we place our hopes: libertarian communism.

Libertarian Alternative was created in 1991, 28 years ago. In 28 years, we have fought, 
many, we have debated, built ideas, practices and an organization. This organization, we 
wanted it always more open, accessible, addressing the whole proletariat. This 
organization was a tool, which we thought was useful during these three difficult decades 
of social struggles. ---- And yet, we, libertarian Alternative congressmen gathered in 
congress on June 10, 2019, we decide its dissolution. Our tool is functional and we do not 
destroy it, but we want to go beyond it, for, with our comrades from the Coordination of 
Anarchist Groups, and others, to build a new, more ambitious organization, likely to 
welcome activists who will want to join us. Far from simply merging two entities, we want 
to unite to surpass ourselves and invite all comrades to join our fight against all forms 
of exploitation and domination.

Alternative Libertaire (AL), the Coordination of Anarchist Groups (CGA), and others, 
joined forces to found the Libertarian Communist Union (UCL).
The dark period that we live, between frenzied liberalism and the rise of the extreme 
right, in the polls and especially in the street and the spirits, forces us to redouble 
our efforts.

The dissolution of Libertarian Alternative seems to be the best time to thank all the 
comrades who have worked over the years to its construction. It is a collective adventure 
to live a small libertarian communist organization. May all these comrades, all the 
companions and companions of Alternative Libertarian be assured of our deep gratitude.

The fight continues !

"Politicians and judges, listen carefully: He saw Me will remain in the hands of the 
workers" ---- The Greek judiciary has set five new dates for the forced liquidation of the 
former group Philkeram Johnson AG, in whose premises is located the factory recovered and 
self-managed Vio.Me. The dates will be June 13, 20 and 27, September 19 and October 24 
this year. The following is a statement by the Union of Workers of Vio.Me and the 
Solidarity Initiative of Thessaloniki. ---- On June 13, the mandatory auction of the 
facilities in which the Vio.Me factory is located will enter another stage. The reduced 
initial price increases the risk of the factory falling behind as a scrap heap. Vio.Me's 
grassroots workers' union and the solidarity networks that have supported its struggle for 
eight years are now facing new uncertainties. The next forced auction is scheduled for 
June 13.

In the struggle to keep our jobs so our families can survive, we strive to keep the 
factory running under workers' control by self-managing through a General Assembly. We 
have been able to provide a small income for all, and we have not gone so far as to ask 
for crumbs and begging, which is the way lawmakers want us to organize in exchange for our 
human dignity.

We have made the plant known throughout Europe and internationally, as a result 55% of 
production is being exported. We've also been able to keep the factory running for more 
than six years without being a dead horse like so many other factories right now in the 
country. In particular, it produces products that benefit society, which are eco-friendly, 
of high quality and accessible to working and poor families. We were able to avoid selling 
and eviction on the previous 15 dates, resisting together with our colleagues, and 
demonstrated that we do not intend to accept a sale without fighting.

But what we have achieved in particular is the fact that, together with many others, we 
set out to fight against injustice against the weakest. We are together on this journey to 
demonstrate that there are still people who do not retreat from the exercise of any kind 
of domination and power. We are able to unite, to feel like companions and to realize that 
we must fight together so that our needs and demands are recognized as fundamental rights.

We also managed to keep the factory open to society by organizing hundreds of events that 
were enthusiastically supported by many people. We turn to you, comrade, to you, our 
comrade, to you who took part with us in actions to demonstrate that we are capable of 
making possible the impossible. You who stood beside us in the courtroom and felt the 
tension as the clock ticked and no offerer had the courage to appear in court. After each 
meeting, we launched our proclamation "Politicians and Judges, listen carefully: Vio.Me 
will remain in the hands of the workers."

  We call you again, come with us to avoid the auction that will take place on June 13, 20 
and 27, September 19 and October 24 this year. Stay on our side to keep alive the only 
project that still gives us the right to say"Can not you? We can!". In such a way that 
this experiment can also be put into practice by other factories.

Because we do not need them to save us and they do not need us to go bankrupt.
