WORLD WORLDWIDE SOUTH AMERICA BRAZIL - news journal UPDATE - (en) Brazil, Capixaba - FACA: MAY 1, 2025: REBELLION WILL NOT BE SILENT! REPORT ON THE HISTORIC KNIFE ACT AT THE OLD SKULL BAR (VILA VELHA/ES) (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

 On the night of April 30, the city of Vitória, in an attempt to silence

the popular struggle, denied access to Parque Moscoso for the act called
by the Federação Anarquista Capixaba (FACA). But the maneuver did not
bear fruit: in less than 12 hours, we reorganized forces and occupied
the Old Skull Bar, in Vila Velha, transforming the space into a
territory free of resistance. May Day continued, vibrant and combative,
proving that no state wall can stop the organized strength of the people!
SOLIDARITY OVERCOMES REPRESSION!
The act, which brought together workers, autonomous collectives, and
insurgent youth, showed that state bureaucracy is no match for
revolutionary creativity. The bands set the stage ablaze with lyrics
that echoed against capitalist exploitation, denounced police violence
and the farce of bourgeois democracy, while the discussion groups
debated strategies for direct action and self-management with critical
enthusiasm.

THE FACA DOES NOT RETREAT, THE FIGHT EXPANDS!

In an emotional speech, a FACA activist recalled: "They tried to take
away our space, but they cannot steal our history. May Day is not a
geography, it is a spirit of rebellion that runs through the veins of
the working class!" Applause and shouts of "Anarchy and Freedom!" echoed
throughout the space.

The Old Skull Bar, a traditional stronghold of the Espírito Santo
countercultural scene, became the stage for a historic episode: a May
Day that united art, politics and resistance without asking permission
from the oppressors. The message was clear: FACA does not negotiate its
existence, it does not lower its head and it will not stop fighting.

WHEREVER WE GO, WE WILL TAKE OUR FLAME!
The predictable repression of the State only strengthens our conviction:
emancipation will not be granted, it will be conquered. And as long as
there is a heart that beats for justice, we will be in the streets, in
the bars, in the squares and in the minds, building the new world that
already pulsates in our actions.

Until next May 1st!

For the emancipation of all!

Down with the State and Capital!

They will not move us: from resistance comes freedom!

Federação Anarquista Capixaba (FACA)
Direct Action, Self-Management and Courage!
