Ten thousand grocery store workers in the Portland area of Oregon voted to strike at the
supermarket chains Albertsons, Fred Meyer, QFC and Safeway over the decision by these
employers not to offer new contracts over the coming year. The vote for a strike was
almost unanimous. ---- Another 15,000 grocery workers in other areas of Oregon and
Southwest Washington are due to vote for strike action in the next two months. Workers are
demanding an increase in wages that keeps up with the rising cost of living. ---- In
southern California 46,000 grocery store workers employed at Albertsons, Ralphs and Vons
have already voted to go out on strike. Truck drivers have pledged not to deliver
merchandise to supermarkets during the strikes.
Supermarket workers should beware the machinations of the union that most of them belong
to, the United Food and Commercial Workers Union (UFCWU). They recently sabotaged a strike
at the Stop and Shop chain, refusing to pay strike pay to workers. If the strikes happen,
they should be under the control of the workers themselves. The union bureaucrats cannot
be trusted.
Meanwhile carworkers at Ford, Fiat Chrysler and General Motors plants are increasingly
dissatisfied. They are pushing for higher pay increases and the end of the two-tier system
whereby temporary part-time (TPT) workers are paid less, as well as a reintroduction of a
pensions system.Negotiations between the United Automobile Workers (UAW) union are due to
take place soon. The UAW has long colluded with the car bosses, but the pressure from the
shopfloor is increasing, with rising anger about the rising cost of livings and spiralling
rents where some car workers have resorted to sleeping in their vehicles.
Workers at an Amazon fulfilment centre at Shakopee, Indiana, plant to strike for six hours
on July 15th. That day is the company's "summer sales extravaganza", Prime Day. Amazon has
failed to turn temporary workers into employees, and failed to ease productivity quotas
tthat are extremely onerous for its workers. In solidarity some white-collar Amazon
engineers plan on going to Minnesota to support the action. In addition to the demands for
easing quotas and making tempiorary workers permanent, they will demand that Amazon take
action over climate change.
This growing class anger has already been indicated by teachers strikes in 2018 in
Washington and California.
The illusion among some workers that Trump is their friend is being dispelled. He promised
to save US manufacturing when elected. In fact almost 200,000 jobs have now been moved
abroad, to India, Mexico, etc., with the rate of "offshoring" as it is known, actually
increasing under Trump. More specifically, Trump promised to save the Carrier factory in
Indianapolis. Since then hundreds of Carrier workers have been laid off.

On behalf of all the companions and all the comrades of the Italian Anarchist Federation,
we express our full solidarity at the PerlaNera Anarchist Laboratory in Alessandria, a
victim a few days ago of an intimidating act through the sabotage of the lock and - above
all - the theft of the dedicated plate to comrade Giuseppe Pinelli. A double attack
therefore, to a seat of the anarchist movement and its history. ---- We do not think it
could be a coincidence that this gesture takes place while for months the PerlaNera has
been engaged in a tug-of-war with the Ferservizi (a company connected to the Ferrovie
dello Stato), which would like to clear the space and also obtain a huge monetary
compensation. ---- Always fascist or para-fascist manual labor and employers' interests go
hand in hand and this story is no exception.
We are at the side of the PerlaNera Anarchist Laboratory and all the self-managed social
spaces under attack!

see clearly the political effects of the era. On the left side of history, we see the
"fascination of power" has shaken human history. Ability of power than human development
or social reforms has played a major role. The flow of all political ideas and social
events has been based on economic basis. Economic production systems and social structures
have played a role as the fundamental leader of politics. Directions have been given to
the journey of human race. Karl Marx has been observing many things much earlier. Among
them were the great thinkers Saint-Simon, Luis Blanc, And many writers, including Prukukh,
attracted the attention of everyone on this subject. In this case, Karl Marx presented the
suggestion of socialist society in front of the world in social analysis. In addition, he
did extensive light paths on the impact of economics in social, political and cultural life.
It is true that, in Marxist thought, these issues were not given importance in the field
of historical and political studies. But those issues worked as the basis of Marxism. As a
disciple of Marx philosopher Hegel, he could never come out of his influence. Hegel's
influence on Marx was widespread: Therefore, he was able to reproduce himself in the form
of "historical need" and "historical mission" as the inventor of "the philosophy of the
poor". Only because of hegelian thought, Marx believed that social law could not be an
object of distinction. They were worried, Every event of society is based on material
condition. Marx and all his successors have organized all their actions based on "economic
materialism". Based on the discovery of Coopernacus and Capella, they have tried to infer
other ideas, including Engels, as history and communism as science.
This kind of thinking is inevitably steeped in fierceness. The actual truth has been
hidden or neglected while interpreting the flow of social events mechanically. Science
alone recovers human thinking on the basis of mathematical formulation based on the basis
of time and time based on the natural law. In the natural environment, one subject is
completely dependent on one more subject or element, causes and consequences of natural
law are inextricably linked. There is no chance of any accident in this state of nature.
No matter what to impose or impose. So science is very difficult and strictly regulates in
every respect. No matter as much as a matter is examined, it can not be accepted in the
scientific world if it is not compatible with other matters.
There are so many things in the world of metaphysics that the social person knows the
truth, maybe its utility. But in the world of science there is no money and no value. On
the other hand, there are a lot of variations in our nature, each natural element has its
own set of rules. Again in the cosmic case, the planets of each planet are strictly
following the rules. It is like the earth's material. There is no such effect on people's
desires that do not matter. These elements of nature are deeply mixed with our lives.
Excluding them, the helplessness of the people will be lost. We are born, we are born, we
grow, we eat food, we give up, we go back and we die. We are not able to change any of
these things. Prasas need to change our wish. People try to utilize the nature they need,
Conduct yourself to meet their needs by managing them, in some cases they can succeed and
ultimately do not control the nature. Rather it is to continue with him. Otherwise, the
disaster appears. The real thing is that people can not stop the reality, but they can get
some benefits from it. Our destabilies on nature's naturalness are fearless. We can adjust
ourselves with some common things, but in no way can it be possible to deny natural laws.
We can not eat anything outside of nature which gives us food. In terms of nature we
sleep. If we exclude food and sleep, we can not survive. When we think about these things,
we see that people have no power to go outside of the laws of nature. In some cases, if
successful, and ultimately can not control the nature. Rather it is to continue with him.

Analyzing the laws of cosmic affairs and cosmic world, there are some eternal and strict
rules that can be seen in the nature of the scientific terminology. It is easy to build
and make social laws. Many historical theories have been created on the wrong thought in
the world. In the thought that the natural laws have been ignored. As a result, it could
not bring good for the people. In many cases it has brought a danger to humans.
We never deny all the elements of history that have formed an existing spiritual
relationship between nature. The cause of the flow of the flow and the outcome has been
highlighted. But the importance of socializing nature's goals and objectives to the
attention of everyone is drawing attention. We often observe that we have given our
contribution more importance; We have tried the concept of religion, ethics, customs,
practice traditions, and legal issues that we always upheld. Political organizations,
asset-making bodies, production structures, etc. Our minds have been circulating in the
brain. If all these things are not so important everywhere they are discussed. Every ideas
and beliefs have to be analyzed according to scientific statistics. It is as easy as
making sure to correct on the basis of mathematical formulation in the world of naturally,
on the other hand, there is no way except to remain satisfied with the prospects in the
world of thought.
Human beings have no role in the process of natural phenomena. However, the targets set in
the human society are determined based on the limited capacity of the people. As a result,
this goal does not have any relation with natural necessity.
One Indian woman does not need to think about the shape of the head of a newborn child or
how a special assembly will fix it. Such issues are based on the belief of man. Even if
someone or someone has a marriage, many marriages or celibacy, and it is based on social
beliefs and customs. Every legal opinion is mainly based on beliefs. The legal framework
is determined based on whether people are Muslims, Hindus, Jews, Christians or saints. In
the midst of any economic relationship, people can live within the political system, and
citizens can lead a sinless life without any harm to the law. Suddenly, no gravity could
change everything under the influence of energy. For no reason no man can suddenly die. If
people do not know the force of gravity,
We are not expressing any kind of arbitrary opinion here, but it has only been attempted
to hold a true event. Based on the great aim of human life, it is necessary to focus on
issues of social disadvantage. The issues that arise from the social process must be
avoided considering it as necessary. Otherwise, people will be involved in
misunderstandings in large numbers. As a result, the human race will not understand the
speed of history.
In order to study ihihas, it is suspected that historians did not attempt to reconcile the
flow of history. They discussed the history of the float, in many cases they could not
accurately assess the speed of history. An astronomical scientist can say within a very
short time the nature of the planet's satellite nature. Our Planet's inability to tell the
location of Neptune correctly. And such things are only possible to a single scientist
when it is emphasized on material matters. In reality, there is no standard in determining
human mind and mentality. It is difficult to determine the true goals of race, tribe,
nationality, and other social organizations. It is also a complicated thing to reach them
with their past. It is difficult to determine the future for human beings in history. The
reality is, the beliefs work only with the probability;

That's it: almost 200 people participated in the AL-CGA joint conference, from June 8 to
10 in Allier. And decided to found, together, the Libertarian Communist Union. A small
event in the revolutionary movement, usually more used to splits and divisions. ---- A
large meeting room decorated with banners reminiscent of years of struggles, crowded bays
of activists of all ages peeling copious conference notebooks (90 pages !) In a merry
tumult ... It is with some emotion that the commission prepared the first session of the
AL-CGA Joint Conference on Saturday, June 8th. An exceptional congress since he had to
decide - or not ! - their unification. ---- Coming from all over France and Belgium,
nearly 200 people took part, two-thirds from AL and one third from CGA, including a
significant number of new and new. Despite this unexpected influx - only 150 delegates
were expected - the comrades from Auvergne had organized an impeccable welcome at the
Vert-Plateau site: organic meals, excellent beer, entertainment for the children and even
a small concert on Sunday night.
This joint congress closed a process started at the end of 2017. Eighteen months of
discussions had made it possible to verify that AL and the CGA were in agreement on - by
sight - 90 % of the subjects: the ecological urgency, the conception of libertarian
communism and revolution, anti-patriarchy, anti-statism and criticism of state socialism,
the driving force of class struggle, revolutionary syndicalist practice, strategy based on
social struggles and self -organization, antifascism ...
It remained to decide the less consensual points: the extent of our anti-electoralism, the
Marxism-anarchism and some feminist and anti-racist issues. It is therefore logically on
these points that the debates were concentrated. This may have given observers the
misleading impression of a general dissensus. Yet this is what a convention is all about:
not holding a high-mass of self-deception, but debating and settling disagreements.
From this point of view, the sessions were held in a constructive atmosphere, with the
opinions expressed not really drawing an AL-CGA divide.
Given the large number of presentations, speaking time was limited to two minutes (instead
of the usual three). It's a little short, but it forces to condense its arguments, and it
promotes the flow of speech.
Anti-Electoralism and Marxism
Finally, on the issue of anti-electioneering, it was established that he can " be no
real democracy under capitalism. That is why, without making abstentionism an intangible
dogma, we are boycotting the institutions of the state and the representative
elections.[...]Far from being a contempt for the people who vote, the anti-electoralism we
profess is political and not limited to the elections: it revives the spirit of the First
International which affirmed that "the emancipation of workers must be the work of the
workers themselves ". "
As far as the report to Marx is concerned, the UCL certainly rejects the " statist
illusions conveyed by Marxist currents and theories " but points out that " libertarians
have largely drawn, like Bakunin in his time, and without fetishization, in the
materialist and dialectical thought synthesized notably by Marx. It continues to occupy a
singular place for those who want to change the world. Especially when it does not go
astray in economic over-determination. For us, there is neither destiny nor fate: it is
all of us who, through our action, make history. "
On the anti-racist issue, the congress affirmed its support for minorities victims of
oppression and discrimination - for example, Islamophobia - in particular by encouraging
their self-organization. Not in a blind way, however: the solidarity of the UCL will " in
the first place to the movements which, with the anti-racist struggles, associate a
democratic project of social emancipation by relying on the action of the popular classes".
Finally, the UCL sees in the fight against patriarchy a " specific struggle that is not
reduced to the fight against capitalism, although both feed on each other. Capitalism
takes advantage of the free labor still largely done by women, "a job that generally
benefits men " within our social camp " . Which supposes a real revolution among the latter.
Debates on the manifesto and the statutes were followed by voting on the 70 amendments put
to the vote - a very high number, which is explained by the exceptional nature of this
congress - and a vote by values on the name of the future unified organization.
The role of the federal secretariat
Monday morning was devoted to the vote of finalized texts and the name UCL (arrived at the
head the day before), and to the mandate of the new federal secretariat (SF). Testimony of
a certain enthusiasm, no less than 28 people (!) Have applied to represent the eight
operating commissions (treasury, web, newspaper, internal relations, external relations,
dissemination, international, training) and six commissions. intervention (work, youth,
anti-patriarchy, ecology, antifascism, SO). These mandates come from 18 local groups ;
two-thirds of LA and one-third of CGA ; 20 % are women.
In a self-managing organization, the mission of the SF is not to " give " the line, but
to set the guidelines decided collectively, in congress and in federal coordination.
Mandates to the SF will have to find their marks in a new environment ... Good luck to
them and them !
After this final plenary session, AL and the CGA met separately to take stock of the
congress, and voted their self-dissolution. Not without a pinch to the heart. It's the end
of a twenty-eight year adventure for one ; seventeen years for the other. UCL, succeeds
them. With responsibilities. As one congressman said in conclusion: " We can only
congratulate ourselves for having obtained a building permit. Now, for our political
current, it is a vast building site that opens. "
Congresses of the Allier
And the " heritage " in all this ?
What to do with the analyzes and orientations of AL and the CGA adopted over the years on
multiple issues (fight against dismissals, protectionism and free trade, Palestine,
Kurdistan, national liberation struggles, nuclear, prostitution ...) ? We scratch
everything with a stroke of pen and we start from scratch ? Only nay.
An evaluation commission has been mandated to identify all these orientations, and to
propose to the federation either to renew them as such, or to declare them obsolete, or to
update them. This work will be done gradually, and subject to the approval of each federal
coordination for the next two years.
Messages of encouragement
Several organizations sent the Allier delegates either political comments or friendly
greetings - and often both.
For France, let us mention the messages of the NPA , the FA , the OA , the CNT - SO , the
Association Autogestion , the Association of the unitary communists (Pierre Zarka), the
French Jewish Union for peace , the association Survie (fight against Françafrique) and
the Kurdish Democratic Council in France .
Delegates from FDCA (Italy) and OSL (Switzerland) sent greetings directly to the rostrum.
Of the Spanish state, no less than four organizations had written: CGT , CNT , Solidaridad
Obrera and Catalan Embat . But the largest contingent came from South America, with a long
common message from CAB (Brazil), FAU (Uruguay), Vía Libre (Colombia), Núcleo
pro-Federación (Chile), FAR and Roja y Negra (Argentina).
The fundamentals
The texts had to collect 66 % of " for " to be adopted. All have crossed this
threshold: the manifesto of UCL (94.90 %) ; federal statutes (86.53 %) ; the " rules of
procedure ", which sets the qualified majorities for decision-making (85.42 %) ; the
financing scheme of the federation, with the scale of contributions (95.59 %). The UCL
name was approved at 84.39 %.

We announce that on 15 July we are launching a strike referendum in Poznan and a protest
action will take place. Amazon under pressure announced increases earlier, but wages are
still low and norms overstated. ---- Both trade unions OZZ Inicjatywa Pracownicza and
Solidarnosc demand a collective dispute in a collective dispute of 1. Worthy increases
(PLN 25 per hand) 2. A new employee assessment (stop feedback). 3 Stable working
conditions - contracts for an indefinite period. ---- On 22.05-30.05 there was a
negotiation between the associations and Amazon. We met three times in Wroclaw. There was
no agreement: 5.06. We have signed a discrepancy report. ---- On 18.06.-2.07 mediations
took place with the participation of an external mediator. We met with the employer twice
near Poznan. There was no agreement. Amazon has not agreed to suspend feedback, negotiate
with unions the amount of increases, withdrawal of agency and time contracts, accepting
significant changes in the employee evaluation. The employer unilaterally broke off
mediation despite further willingness to talk on our part. At the same time, he sent us
information that he wanted to continue talking, but outside the dispute.
Amazon is frightened by the possibilities of a collective dispute and that we - employees
will want to use them all. Therefore, from the beginning he tries to finish it as soon as
possible. We will not be deceived, we take another step and proceed to the referendum.
Let's show our strength in it!
On our side are legal arguments, expert opinions, lawyers and economists, won court cases.
Amazon should pay more. Standards are too high. Amazon treats us like robots when it
reminds us that we're doing 99%. Enough work for fear that they will come with feedback
and will they extend the contract!
In order for us to organize a legal strike throughout the Amazon we must organize and win
a STRESS REFERENCE in every center. It will take several months. You can also vote online.
RUN IN THE REFERENDUM - FIRST DAY ON JULY 15TH IN POZNAN!
EVERYONE VOTES!
We will soon provide a schedule of other dates and locations.
