Quirier Anarchism (or Anarka Quirier) is an anarchist school of thought that advocates anarchism and social revolution as ways to liberate
Quirri and abolish homophobia, lesbianism, transgender heresy, bisexual heterosexuality, heterosexual heterosexuality, heterosexual
heterosexuality, and heterosexual heterosexuality. ---- Some of the people who have been working for LGG rights both inside and outside the
anarchist and LGT movements include John Henry MacKay, Adolf Brand and Daniel Green. Adolf Brand, an individualist anarchist, published Der
Eigen magazine in Berlin between the ages of 1 and 2. This is the first continual and exclusive issue of homosexuality. ---- During the
second half of the twentieth century, Anarka Quirier emerged among the anarchists in the gay liberation movement, who saw anarchism as a way
to balance heterosexuals and LGTs. Anarka Quire has roots in Quireque, a form of punk rock that positively portrays homosexuality. Like most
forms of punk rock, Quire Core also attracted a wide anarchist audience, and the name of the anarchists was frequently heard in Quire Core
neighborhoods.

There are two main groups of Anarka Quayir: Quadir Templar, a British band rooted in most metropolises, and Bash Back!, an American network
of anarchist Hia Quirey. The Quire Group first emerged in New York City, establishing itself as a "anti-homogenization, anti-capitalist,
anti-authoritarian street action group formed to take direct action and radicalize Quire and Trance into the Republican National Assembly
(RNC) demonstration." ) "Introduced.

Anarchist feminist populations such as Bolivia's Scalara Caracola Squat and Mukheros Corando also place great importance on lesbianism and
female bisexuality.

Queer anarchism (or anarcha-queer) is an anarchist school of thought that advocates anarchism and social revolution as a means of queer
liberation and abolition of homophobia, lesbianism, transmisogyny, biphobia, transphobia, heteronormativity, patriarchy, and the gender
binary. People who campaigned for LGBT rights both outside and inside the anarchist and LGBT movements include John Henry Mackay, Adolf
Brand and Daniel Guérin. Individualist anarchist Adolf Brand published Der Eigene from 1896 to 1932 in Berlin, the first sustained journal
dedicated to gay issues

Anarcha-queer originated during the second half of the 20th century among anarchists involved in the gay liberation movement, who viewed
anarchism as the path to harmony between heterosexual / cis people and LGBT people. Anarcha-queer has its roots deep in queercore, a form of
punk rock that portrays homosexuality in a positive way. Like most forms of punk rock, queercore attracts a large anarchist crowd.
Anarchists are prominent in queercore zines. There are two main anarcha-queer groups: Queer Mutiny, a British group with branches in most
major cities; and Bash Back!, an American network of queer anarchists. Queer Fist has appeared in New York City and identifies itself as "an
anti-assimilationist, anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian street action group,

Anarcha-feminist collectives such as Esqualera Karakola and Bolivian Mujeres Creando give high importance to lesbian and bisexual female issues

This text is courtesy of Prof Datuk Khoo Kay Kim and Ranjit Singh Malhl. ---- Chinese anarchists are the origin of the trade union ---- K.
Baradan's article on Humans Who Give Everything to Justice in The Star August 31, 1993 is interesting. ---- It was the first time the public
had been informed of the role of the British administration in forming a trade union movement in Malaya. The individual who was directly
involved in forming and establishing a trade union was John Brazier. ---- Baradan stated that as early as 1949, Sir Henry Gurney (High
Commissioner killed near Fraser Hill in 1951), wanted the union movement to be managed by the Indian ethnic group. It can be considered the
answer to a long-standing question in the country, "Why do Indian ethnic groups dominate trade unions?"
The usual answer is that ethnic Indians prefer to speak and it is easier for trade unions. It is similar to Harry Miller's answer to the
question "Why is the communist movement in the country dominated by the Hainanese?" Miller's answer is that they have a sense of
inferiority. This is nothing more than a coffee shop conversation.

In fact, Indian ethnicity is not one of the earliest to mobilize trade unions in the country. Chinese ethnicity is the earliest. The
activities of the trade union movement began after the First World War.

They were led by a Chinese ethnic group based on the ideology of anarchism. Not surprisingly, it was brought to this country from China.

Liu Shi Fu; Pioneer anarchist movement in China

In China, the person known as the "Father of Anarchism" is Liu Shih-fu (also known as Lau Sze Fuk).

In 1912, he established an anarchist organization in Canton, China, called the Cock-Crow Society (Hui-ming hsueh-she), which published
Min-Sheng (People's Voice) magazine or better known in the country as Man Seang (Cantonese dialect).

The French edition has also been titled La Voco de la Popolo.

In 1914 in Shanghai, Liu Shih-fu founded the Anarcho-Communist Comrade Association, also known as the Chinese Anarchist Party which, in
Chinese Wu-cheng-fu Tang, (in Cantonese, Mo Cheng Fu Tong), meant, " Non-Governmental Parties. " It explains the concept of anarchism in its
simplest form.

The Anarchist Party was tried in Malaya in 1919 and the following are their objectives:

"Freedom, Equality, Brotherhood, Community of Goods, Co-operation; everyone can do what they can and take what they want: no government, no
law or military power, no landlord, capitalist or upper class. No currency, religion, police, prison or leader. No representatives, heads of
families, no uneducated or unemployed individuals; no marriage rules, no highest or lowest, poor or rich, and the methods adopted by
comrades in the form of communication centers, propaganda leaflets, speeches and lessons, according to passive resistance to those in power.

Don't pay taxes, stop working, stop trading; by sticking to direct action, don't be afraid to kill and make a mess. Anarchy is a real
revolution. "

It is clear from the various terms used by the movement in this country that it was led by the Cantonese ethnic group. One of the pioneering
pioneers in Malaya was Lau Hak Fei.

In 1920, anarchist societies existed in Singapore, Penang, Ipoh, Kuala Lumpur and Seremban. Some Chinese schools have become important
centers for movement activities.

The anarchist movement in this country seems to have received its initial push from the May 1, 1919. demonstration.

"On May 1, 1919, Peking students began distributing thousands of loaves named" Holy Labor "bread to the inhabitants of the city. At the same
time in Shanghai, thousands of workers and students held a large street rally. And this vibrant movement has left a huge impression on
Nanyang and the rest of the country. Many poor people in Nanyang are beginning to rise and for the first time they are aware of the
existence of a lower class for May Day. "

Due to the increasing influence of the workforce, the main principle of the recruitment process is to focus on a number of trade unions,
which have been around the country for a long time.

The anarchists consider May 1 to be an important day not only because it is symbolic of the struggle of the workers and the lower classes
against capitalism but also because it signifies the date for all revolutionary movements in general.

In this country, May Day was first greeted with enthusiasm by the anarchists in Ipoh in 1921. A large gathering was held, attended by
workers and students.

The following year they tried to distribute thousands of brochures on May Day but their plans failed due to the lack of a printing press at
the last minute.

However, several publications of anarchist pamphlets existed in the country during the year. Among them are Kung Sai Yam (Save the World),
Kung Chan Tong (Communist Party) and Anarchist Moral by Peter Kropotkin.

Some pamphlets have also been printed and published by Malayan anarchists such as Tai Yeung (Sun) printed at Yik Khwan Po premises in Kuala
Lumpur and Yan Kheun (Proletarian Power) published in Gopeng, Perak.

The anarchist movement in Malaya then entered a more active phase in 1924 when several important individuals emerged, especially in Kuala
Lumpur.

However, there are not 50 hardcore members in the Peninsula. Their influence only reached most ethnic Chinese, especially school teachers.

Among the major actions carried out by anarchists Malaya occurred in 1925 when they tried to kill Sir Laurence Guillemard representing the
High Commissioner Federated Malay States and the Governor of the Straits Settlements.
Their plan failed and they later turned their target to Daniel Richards of the Chinese Protectorate in Selangor.

On January 26, 1925, a female anarchist named Wong Sau Ying, aged 26, wearing a white jacket and black shirt, white dress and white blanket
arrived at the office of the Chinese Protectorate in Kuala Lumpur. He brought with him a small brown case with a bomb.
He then met Daniel Richards and WL Blythe (Daniel Richards' assistant) and then entered the office and began talking to Richards.

He then slipped and tried to throw the case back to Richards and then the bomb in the bag exploded. Daniel Richards and WL Blythe survived
but both were injured in the blast.

Wong Sau Ying was later arrested and sentenced to 10 years in prison. While serving a prison term in Pudu Prison, Wong Sau Ying committed
suicide by hanging himself. After the bombing incident, Malaya's anarchist movement began to sink. Later, the communists began to play a
role in unifying the workers in the struggle against their bosses and the government.

During the 1920s and 1930s the Chinese ethnic groups were among the most active in the trade unions without official authorization of
Malaya. Most important individuals are left to be detained if they appear to be influential.

It was only after World War II that the government began intentionally giving Indian ethnic policy a governing body and control over trade
unions as an act of dealing with the influence of Chinese ethnic radicals.

Commenting on the British election results, Jean-Luc Mélenchon recently stood out with anti-Semitic remarks. For the Libertarian Communist
Union, there is no tolerable anti-Semitism. ---- In a blog post on December 13 deciphering the failure of plowing in the UK legislative
elections, Jean-Luc Mélenchon split two anti-Semitic remarks. Antisemitic, its text is on several levels: already because it rejects the
accusations of anti-Semitism with regard to certain activists of Labor (see box) and the responsibility of Jeremy Corbyn in this regard
however based on documented and sourced facts, if only through Corbyn's connections with notorious anti-Semites (Stephen Sizer, Paul Eisen,
etc.). Then because he summons a vocabulary and an imagination specific to anti-Semitism by attacking CRIF, which he presents as makers of
ukases (Russian imperial decrees) before which we should kneel: this rhetorical image presents CRIF (a cartel of community organizations) as
an all-powerful organization, which is characteristic of the anti-Semitic / conspiratorial rhetoric, that is to say, to make Jews (or any
other community) people controlling the institutions. Let us remind Mr. Mélenchon that one can be opposed to the policy of CRIF and / or the
State of Israel without falling into anti-Semitism to denounce it, which is more in a national context where hateful acts to the against the
Jewish community are increasing. We libertarian communists oppose any form of anti-Semitism wherever it comes from: from the right, as from
the left that is to say to make Jews (or any other community) persons controlling the institutions. Let us remind Mr. Mélenchon that one can
be opposed to the policy of CRIF and / or the State of Israel without falling into anti-Semitism to denounce it, which is more in a national
context where hateful acts to the against the Jewish community are increasing. We libertarian communists oppose any form of anti-Semitism
wherever it comes from: from the right, as from the left that is to say to make Jews (or any other community) persons controlling the
institutions. Let us remind Mr. Mélenchon that one can be opposed to the policy of CRIF and / or the State of Israel without falling into
anti-Semitism to denounce it, which is more in a national context where hateful acts to the against the Jewish community are increasing. We
libertarian communists oppose any form of anti-Semitism wherever it comes from: from the right, as from the left!

Libertarian Communist Union, December 27, 2019

Since Corbyn's arrival at the party leadership in September 2015 and until March 2018, 300 reports of anti-Semitic or even Holocaust deniers
(out of a total of 600,000 members) from activists have been brought to the attention of the party's disciplinary committee. The reaction of
the Labor management also resulted in an active policy 673 complaints for anti-Semitism over the period March 2018 to January 2019 and gave
rise to 96 immediate suspensions and 211 investigations leading ultimately to 12 exclusions (June 2019 figure ). In addition, internal party
documents, recently leaked in the press, report 130 cases of anti-Semitism not resolved after several months of proceedings.

Since the #MeToo and #BalanceTonPorc movements in 2017, women have spoken. These innumerable testimonies show that beyond the organizations
and associations which fight against patriarchy, a massive process of awareness is engaged. ---- Since this summer, street mobilisations
have taken over, thus marking a desire to be heard beyond social networks. Collectives have thus been created to react to feminicides and
denounce the government masquerade that the Grenelle represented against violence against women. ---- As the national call for mobilization
for October 3 entitled "  Against feminicides, let's not wait for the government  " explains it very well! »Of which we were signatories.
The government has so far proposed only repressive measures far removed from the demands made by the feminist movement. The response,
against femicide, domestic violence and all gender-based violence, must be collective.

For this reason, the Libertarian Communist Union will notably campaign against macho violence. This campaign, fueled by the initiatives of
local groups, will be part of a calendar of mobilization dates. It will also be a tool for producing texts and training on the subject of
macho violence.

Feminicides: a federative, effective and efficient struggle
November 25 is an international day to fight for the elimination of violence against women. This year, marches were organized all over
France. In 2018, the call of "  We All  " to women and gender minorities to take to the streets had clearly responded to a desire to
mobilize and to make feminism a concrete and radical struggle.

However, the centralism of this Parisian collective has only rarely been able to link with the local components used to organizing these
major days of mobilization. This lack of articulation has sometimes led to double calls to protest and to the division of processions, thus
reproducing the same cleavages within the feminist movement.

In the perspectives that present themselves today to revolutionary feminism, create local feminist counterpowers by associating women active
in struggles, organized or not in unions and associations in assemblies, collectives or inter-organization, without presuming specific local
possibilities, is one of the conditions for amplifying the movement.

These are also large feminist assemblies each time bringing together several hundred people in Paris on September 10 called by "  We stop
all  " and in Toulouse on October 26 and 27 by the collective "  Tous en grève  ", which allow us today to project ourselves towards
struggles that bring victory.

The texts which were produced there relay the will to build a strike of the women for next March 8. Already popularized in Spain or
Switzerland, the women's strike seems to be becoming a widely shared prospect for action.

Finally, feminist collectives must continue to bind themselves to social struggles and bring their demands to it. In 2016, the mobilization
against the El Khomri bill was already an opportunity to highlight the specific casualization suffered by women. More recently, the yellow
vests movement has also been the privileged space for organizing and developing women's demands.

Precariousness, the women first concerned
Today, the pension reform project has once again made women's career paths more precarious. Mobilization against it must not take place
without the first parties concerned being heard. Although history does not repeat itself, we can remember here that the movement against
pensions in 1995 was preceded by a massive movement for women's rights.

If the idea of a strike by women constitutes an attractive political perspective, it will not be able to be realized without taking up a
double preliminary challenge: building the frameworks which will allow all women to forge links over time and bring a point feminist
perspective in current and future social struggles.

 From 24 to 28 July, another regular congress of the International Anarchist Federation was held, including Czech AF. The congress is
organized every three years and this year's organization was taken over by our sister organization in Slovenia, FAO (Federacija za
anarhisticno organiziranje), and it must be said at the outset that they have taken on more than responsibly and everything flowed without
any problems or hitches. A four-member expedition from the AF ranks also went to Ljubljana. ---- The event was attended by 8 other member
federations besides us and the organizing organization. They were also supplemented by guests from member organizations, from Brazil, the
Netherlands, Japan and Venezuela.
The most extensive content of the program was internal thematic discussions and workshops. In addition, how to involve new members in the
functioning of the International has also discussed the political role of the IFA. The debate revolved around four thematic areas that are
most important for the functioning of the umbrella anarchist organization: solidarity, exchange of information and skills, international
activities and networking, not only within member and sympathizing groups, but also externally. This was the theme of a separate block.
There was also training on safe communication.

There were, of course, debates on political campaigns and topics that the Federation and the entire IFA want to address. Among other things,
there was a program of talks about anti-militarism, where individual federations considered how creeping militarization was taking place in
the countries where they were located, for example through the restoration of military services to the civilian population. For example,
Slovenian comrades mentioned that they had monthly training for which they were paid. Unfortunately, it is a frequent way of earning poorer
strata, which the state can indoctrinate through militaristic propaganda through training.

One of the workshops was also devoted to repression. The Belarusian anarchist tried to describe the means by which the repressive forces
used to decimate the inconvenience. He mentioned, inter alia, that the range of their instruments is really wide and an important part of
their tactics is indirect psychological abuse. Often this may be pressure on the relatives of the prisoners, their striking persecution,
unnecessary searches or visits to work. At the other end of the scale, in terms of intensity, is the actual imprisonment, torture or even
murder. He then gave a few examples from Belarus where the cops are using huge amounts of data from the Internet to put pressure on
suspects. They create false profiles on social networks or dating sites. Finally, he stopped by the motives by which the repressive forces
advocate their action, be it a label of extremists, terrorists (he mentioned, that the public generally does not like terrorists and hears
this defense of the state, but this may not always work, as seen in the Network case, where some of the public pauses over this label) or
criminals. He also added some practical advice on how to prepare for and fight repression. In addition to the classical emphasis on a
sophisticated security culture, solidarity structures or solidarity in everyday life, ie mainly support for families and close prisoners,
the advice was not to "panic". Sober approach to the trouble can often avoid the trouble even bigger. how to prepare for and fight

Another workshop was devoted to gender struggles, where it was stressed, among other things, that opposition to sexism and machism must be
the cornerstone of any activist movement or mental health. It discussed how capitalism, but also activism, affects him. The internal program
also included a bureaucratic part where the organizational functioning of the International was addressed.

But not all of the political debates and the heat have to be taken away, of course, not all the time has been devoted to meetings. An
important part was also the informal meeting during breaks and during a common vegan meal, which was by the way, as almost traditionally at
similar events, great. And don't think they were just stews or pulses. There was also a kebab on the menu, occasionally a draft beer was
served for lunch, which rose in price by the summer steam and disappeared faster than everyone would have liked (at least thanks to it we
returned to lunch after a lunch break in a usable state).

An important and fun part was the public program. The main private program took place in the large building of the local "falcon", which is
located just a stone from the famous Metelkova. There it lived in the evening. The program included public lectures or concerts and the
attendance was more than satisfactory. One evening there was a presentation of some federations and their activities: British AF presented
its new publication Capitalism is killing Earth, the Argentine FLA audiobook archive for libertarian history, the French Radio Libertaire
project was presented, and a local FAO representative gave an account of the reasons why local anarchists are organizing themselves in the
form of a federation. The next evening, guests from Brazil spoke about the history of local punk. That they had a lot to talk about, then
they managed a great concert. The star of the evening was the local trap group "Strategio tenzia", which completely controlled the club and
got all the boil.

Another musical experience was the outdoor concert of the Slovenian female choir Kombinat, whose vocal performance of the well-known
revolutionary hits definitely play. In addition to the fact that it really sings to them, it is also an activist choir that has participated
in many demonstrations and uses singing in direct events. For example, they disrupted the speeches of the European Commissioner for Trade,
who went to Slovenia to talk about the benefits of TTIP, but the singers did not let her speak .

Of course, the public part was followed by parties where international friendships were strengthened in the Metelkova complex. Although
after a four-day party with strolling through Ljubljana (which, incidentally, is glamorously glazed and sprayed with anarchist propaganda)
and occasionally some action - most delegations of course in a different order - returned home tired, a pervasive atmosphere of belonging
accompanied the meetings. Although we did not manage to meet some of the participants all the time, they said goodbye to us with such a warm
embrace that it brought tears to our eyes, even to the harder ones.

We will be looking forward again in three years, my friends!

PS: Ljubljana is relatively small compared to other metropolises and you can walk through its historic center in one day. However, we
recommend her to visit not for historical sights but for autonomous sights. The fact that Ljubljana has less than half the population, as in
Prague, is renumbering "us" in terms of squats. Metelkov is somewhat overgrown in the gentle neighborhood and the city has included it in
the official guide, but it still has not lost its spirit. Even more monumental is Rog, a former bicycle factory. Its inhabitants are
particularly welcoming. If you have the chance, try telling someone to guide you through the squat and watch. But spend more time than
perhaps a nasty repaired castle in the center, which is not much worth it. There's a five-storey factory, which is home to many artists,
they have their own octagon and luxury large skatepark (the largest in the former Yugoslavia). In addition, the site is linked with many
stories about how residents defended their squat in 2016 from police eviction, which certainly will tell you.

We are witnessing a period of incredible social unrest around the world. The United States is not exempt from political tension, the
potential for conflict, and substantial change seems more real than ever. In New York City, too, we have an extremely tense political
situation, with the expansion of the prison system, ever-increasing gentrification, and the country's largest and most brutal police force.
---- With this in mind, we are making a call to a recurring anarchist assembly in New York City to build, strategize and create a formidable
anarchist movement in New York City that can deal with political problems in NY and internationally. ---- We have drawn some agreements of
principle.
* As anarchists, we believe in the abolition of the United States as a political entity.
* We are actively fighting for a revolution, not a reform, and will achieve this by any means necessary.

* The destruction of prisons and prison slavery is an immediate goal and as such we root our struggle in the abolitionist tradition.

* We are against the state and  electoralism, but for the collective community based on resistance to these control mechanisms.

* We are actively engaged and promote internationalism, anti-capitalist solidarity with revolutionary movements and groups around the world.

Please come to our first assembly to chart a revolutionary new path in the city!
