WORLD WORLDWIDE BRASIL News Journal Update - (en) Brazil, UNIPA, Stopping the Funeral March: Preparing Self-Defense to End the Genocide of Black People (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 "Peace is dead, disfigured in the IML The funeral march continues." --

Central Faction ---- The government will resort to incessant coercion,violence, that is, political control, and the ultimate weapon ofpolitical control is military power". -- Mikhail Bakunin ---- Thefuneral march of recent weeks ---- In recent weeks we have had threemassacres promoted by the Military Police (PM) in three Brazilianstates: Rio de Janeiro, São Paulo and Bahia. The three states are ruledby different political forces. ---- In Bahia, governed by the PT for 20years, and currently under the leadership of Jerônimo Rodrigues, atleast 19 people were killed during actions and police operations carriedout in late July and early August. The murders took place in themunicipalities of Salvador, Itatim and Camaçari. Bahia is now a nationalleader in absolute numbers of people killed by the police. According todata from the Public Security Forum, there were 1,464 deaths last year.Almost all of the dead were black.In Guarujá, on the south coast of São Paulo, there were 16 murders bythe Military Police of the Tarcísio (PL) government. The action ispolice revenge for the death of the Rota da PM soldier shot during anoperation in Vila Zilda.In Vila Cruzeiro, located in Complexo da Penha, north of the city of Riode Janeiro, at least 10 people were murdered by the Military Police ofClaudio Castro (PL). In recent weeks, we also had the murder of a13-year-old black man, Thiago Menezes, in Cidade de Deus, in the WestZone of the city of Rio de Janeiro. Last Sunday, Eloá Passos, aged 5,and Wendell Eduardo, aged 17, were also murdered in a police operation.The ultimate weapon of political control is military power.The lucrative war on drugs is today the institutional excuse for theexercise of state violence in the favelas. The left in power (the PT,the Lula government and their allies) helped to incarcerate thousands ofyoung black people in the last two decades with the approval of the druglaw, transforming these young people into a collective work force forcriminal factions.Whether in left or right governments, the Military Police, one of thearmed arms of the State, has exterminated working black people,especially its youth. Mikhail Bakunin pointed out that "if[the State]isnot able to instil habitual obedience to its authority throughpersuasion and other peaceful methods, the government will resort toincessant coercion, violence, i.e. political control, and the ultimateweapon of political control is military power" (Statism and Anarchy, 1873).The funeral march of the last few weeks reveals how the death penaltyexists in the favelas and urban peripheries in the form of massacres.The State legalized, through the action of the police forces, thesummary execution of young black men in Brazil. These forces are anexpression of state tyranny. The function of the Military Police is todefend itself as a State and defend the ruling classes, maintain thesystem of injustice and inequality that organizes the country.Bakunin asserted that "no state, however democratic it may be (...) cangive the people what they really want, namely, the freeself-organization and administration of their own affairs from thebottom up, without any interference or violence from above." from above,because every State (...) is in essence only a machine governing themasses from above" (Statism and Anarchy, 1873). In this sense, anypolitical strategy aimed at combating the genocide of black people inBrazil must start from the understanding that the State is an activepart of this systematic violence and that the solution to this problemdoes not involve statist measures, but, necessarily, the self-defense ofblack working people.This self-defense is an expression of popular self-determination againstthe military power of the State, which found in massacres a politicalweapon to control black people. It is up to the anarchistrevolutionaries in Brazil to dispel any illusion of a statist solutionto the question of the genocide of the black people and to wave the flagof popular self-defense in the workplace, study and housing of theworking class.Fight, create popular self-defense!https://uniaoanarquista.wordpress.com/2023/08/20/impedir-a-marcha-funebre-preparar-a-autodefesa-para-por-fim-ao-genocidio-do-povo-negro/_________________________________________A - I N F O S  N E W S  S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
