Let's put our bit together fighters, laborers and solidarity to reignite the smokestacks 
of factories, to retake forth engines feel the sweat on our brow and to feed our families 
with wages. That this time it will have a basic difference is wages freedom rather than 
slavery! ---- Governments are falling but the matches live! ---- Four years in self 
VIO.ME. ---- They spent five and a half years after leaving factory VIO.ME by the owners 
and direct militant response from us employees, with the occupation of the premises and 
the seven-day / clock protection, to ensure the existence of the factory and in the second 
year of operation with another philosophy for the benefit of workers and not the bosses. 
---- Since this philosophy began to take shape and not just words written on paper passed 
four years.

Four years of continuous struggle for the legalization of the plant, four years of 
continuous struggle for the emancipation of workers involved and the entire working class, 
through the commands that remove employees and solidarity where co-decide on the course of 
the race, four years effort to prove that we can and even better than them!

A whole four years, the theory held by an elected government of the Greek parliament. 
Although here we have to say that from the beginning of the match until today we have seen 
six different governments. And this is yet another proof that we workers better manage 
when even put goals and cyber.

Cyber those in power and decide for our own good, the good of all! Those who when they are 
out of the centers of decision say that the right is on our side and when you need to make 
decisions have no answers.

For this answer we and demand: immediate unimpeded lawful operation of its factory VIO.ME, 
with the exception of land that stands on the site and granting the cooperative workers to 
preserve jobs. Especially the land and building that has been excluded from the auction to 
quickly attributed to direct licensing production of natural and organic products in the 
area of the factory. And of course facilitate the start of the previous generation for 
creation and new jobs. And it does so for all the abandoned factories where employees want 
to work.

Let's put our bit together fighters, laborers and solidarity to reignite the smokestacks 
of factories, to retake forth engines feel the sweat on our brow and to feed our families 
with wages. That this time it will have a basic difference is wages freedom rather than 
slavery!

Payday that respects people and the environment!

Racing, workers in the SE VIO.ME

In this statement originally posted to the website of anarcho-syndicalist organisation 
Rocinante on February 2nd, the Greek group is calling for solidarity with refugees who 
have been dying at camps on the border with Turkey. ---- A barbarity against human 
existence itself is evolving in Greece. A serial crime, brought about by the racist 
policies of the Greek government. Refugee camps located throughout the country are 
structurally linked to the devaluation of human life. Deaths which have occurred within 
them are not coincidences or bad luck, they are the murderous effects of State racism. 
Every day that passes and concentration camps remain open finds refugees imprisoned in 
them, death gaining more and more space among the living - it becomes a banal daily 
routine. We must fight for the contrary: such death must not become normal.

Amid the hardest winter of recent years, thousands of people have been sleeping in summer 
tents, without access to clothing and medical care. Over the past ten days three refugees 
were killed in the camp of Moria bringing the total number of deaths in the camps in five. 
Among those who lost their lives was an infant, and there have been another seven suicide 
attempts. The murderous nature of the camps is more than obvious.

When the living conditions in the refugee camps cost human lives, official authorities 
remain publicly silent, and when forced to say something make qualifying statements, that 
they have "not yet identified the cause of death." Their clumsy attempts to insinuate that 
the deaths are merely from natural causes and that there ultimately might not be a real 
issue simply confirms the size of the devaluation of human life taking place in the camps. 
Living in conditions where everyone can die and the reason never made known transforms 
prevention into a mere fiction.

Despite the efforts of the government to convince us to the contrary, nothing can humanise 
the existence of the camps. Our struggle against them, worldwide, must be intransigent.

The solidarity movement with refugees, the class forces in society, everyone who from the 
summer of 2015 until today has stood at the side of refugees and have turned solidarity in 
a public, open and social power, must join forces to create a major pole of social 
confrontation against the Euro-Turkish migration agreement, and eventually, to overthrow 
it. It is our duty towards human lives threatened by the racist policies being imposed. 
It's the debt of life against death.

Stop the shameful agreement between Europe and Turkey.
Brook no more deaths in the hell of the refugee camps.
Offer accomodation of refugees within our cities, ofeer asylum and equal rights for 
health, education and work
  There must be free movement in Greece and the European Union

On January 20, 2017, on a rainy day in Washington DC, Donald Trump was sworn into office 
as the 45th president of the United States. It's a day that ultimately brought shock to 
many who fully expected Hillary Clinton to take the office easily as polls predicted. The 
inauguration in DC was met with massive protests against an incredibly unpopular political 
figure and what many folks see as a dangerous ultra-right populist and potentially 
proto-fascist regime. ---- The Bad News ---- Trump has hit the ground running by signing 
executive orders that directly attack human rights, executive powers which were 
unfortunately expanded previously by Barack Obama. These include massive travel bans on 
people from various foreign countries visiting the United States. In addition, Trump has 
put Steve Bannon, a white nationalist associated with Breitbart News and the "alt-right" 
at the head of his security council and has decided to go ahead with the DAPL and KXL 
pipelines which Obama had previously rejected. While these changes are resulting in 
massive protesting, emergency court decisions and lawsuits galore including by the ACLU 
against the government, the next four-plus years will very likely be a fight for the human 
rights of the working class against the far-right Trump regime.

The Good News

While there's much work to be done, the U.S. response to Trump is largely very 
encouraging. The inauguration protests were heavily attended and more than 1% of the 
country was out in protest for the post-inauguration women's marches. After Trump's travel 
restrictions were enforced, international airports across the country including JFK, 
O'Hare, DFW, SFO, BOS, SEA, Dulles, DEN, LAX, SAN and PHL were occupied by protestors, 
ultimately forcing many of them to allow entry for people subject to what Trump has called 
"extreme vetting" into the country. These occupations have not let up and activists and 
community members are continuing to organize and figure out ways to fight the Trump regime 
directly.

WSA's Take on the Situation

We are encouraged by the mass protests which have taken place to counter the Trump regime. 
We believe it's especially important at this time to organize mass libertarian working 
class organizations to provide rapid response community defense to protect minorities as 
well as to directly battle the bosses of U.S. capitalism. We especially want to consider 
the many working class folks who sell their labor to Trump himself, as they are employed 
at his various resorts, hotels and other businesses. We need to collectively organize ways 
to figure out how best to hit Trump and his allies hard and where it will hurt most. And 
we need to use mass collective organizing to make it too costly for Trump to continue to 
threaten the rights of the U.S. and international working class during his tenure. 
Ultimately, Trump is the culmination of the nastiness of the capitalist system and 
organizing to abolish capitalism is a long-term goal. But ultimately the particularly 
odious and dangerous nature of Trump's regime increases the urgency for us to work towards 
replacing capitalism with a positive alternative.

In Bydgoszcz, Poznan, Warsaw and Wroclaw were protests solidarity with the workers and 
employees that the Polish Theatre in Wroclaw ---- From September 2016. In the Polish 
Theatre in Wroclaw it takes a labor dispute between the factory committee OZZ Workers' 
Initiative and a new director - Cezary Morawski. The Commission filed a Workers' 
Initiative demands concerning, among others wage increases (not indexed for 8 years), 
employment guarantees, to provide childcare for children of employees and workers of the 
theater and the appointment of a proxy for. counteract discrimination based on gender and 
sexual orientation. The only answer directorates were exempt 10 people have received the 
notice or information about the termination of employment contracts in a disciplinary 
hearing, and another two are to be released in the coming days. All these people belong to 
OZZ Workers 'Initiative, and 6 of them are protected under the Act on Trade Unions or the 
Act on the settlement of collective disputes - the employer had no right to fire them 
without the consent of the commission of the Workers' Initiative. Moravian reasons given 
by the redundancies are m.in .: elimination of jobs, criticism Director, loss of 
confidence, critical entries on Facebook, participate in demonstrations defending the 
theater, sizing mouth during the applause, etc.

Despite wide criticism from the artistic community and trade union protests, Cezary 
Morawski continues its policy of destroying the band one of the most important theaters in 
Poland. His actions did not meet with sufficient response from the Management Board of 
Lower Silesia, which has not taken up to now vote on dismissal of Moravian as director. 
The reason for this is the attitude of Tadeusz Samborski with the Polish Peasant Party, 
which blocks a vote on this.

Since the operation of the current director of the Polish Theatre in Wroclaw, make it 
difficult to conduct trade union activities and tend to break down trade union 
organization OZZ Workers' Initiative, commissions due in solidarity with colleagues from 
Wroclaw lead protests demanding the immediate withdrawal of support PSL for Cezary 
Morawski and appeal it hitherto his position as director of the theater.

On Sunday January 29 the play "The Dybbuk," expressions of support for Wroclaw read by 
colleagues from the Works Committee at the Polish Theatre in Bydgoszcz.

Next Tuesday 31 January in Poznan Workers' Initiative will conduct a protest in front of

Silesia before the Marshal's Office held a protest of the Works Committee of the Polish 
Theatre Wroclaw and Environmental Commission.

The solidarity movement to refugees, the class forces in society, everyone / s are / s who 
in the summer of 2015 until today have stood at the side of refugees and have turned 
solidarity in a public, open and social power, must join forces to create a major social 
confrontation pole in Euro-Turkish agreement to escalate their opposition to it, and 
eventually, to overthrow. It is our duty towards human lives threatened by racist policies 
imposed. Is the debt of life against death. ---- None ever camp and nowhere, not defeat 
death! ---- Everybody / s in protest at the Immigration Department  ---- A barbarity 
against human existence itself is evolving in Greece. A serial crime, orderly by racist 
and antiprosfygiki policy Greek Government. The refugee camps located throughout the 
country are structurally linked to the devaluation of human life. Deaths have occurred 
within them are not coincidences and bad times, are the murderous effects of state racism. 
Every day that passes and concentration camps are open each day passes and finds refugees 
imprisoned in them, death is gaining more and more space among the living, becomes a daily 
routine that tends to get used to. We must give battle to the contrary: death must not get 
used.

Amid the most hard winter in recent years, thousands of people sleeping in summer tents, 
without access to clothing and medical care. Over the past ten days three refugees were 
killed in the camp of Moria bringing the total number of deaths in the camps in five. 
Among them have lost their lives and an infant and there have been and another seven 
suicide attempts. The murderous nature of the camps is more than obvious.

Once the living conditions in the refugee camps costing human lives, the official 
authorities shall refrain from speaking openly and in a their apparent attempt to qualify 
this happens, react when officially and when unofficially that "not yet identified the 
cause of death." Their clumsy attempt however imply that deaths can and should be from 
natural causes and that ultimately might not be a real issue, simply confirms the size of 
the devaluation of human life taking place in the camps: living in a condition where 
everyone can die and never be known why, transforms prevention in science fiction. Despite 
the efforts of the government to convince us to the contrary, nothing can humanize the 
existence of the camps. The contrast of the world struggle with these must be intransigent.

Before even completed an application time of the agreement between the European Union and 
Turkey, the assassination of status has been confirmed in the worst way. The solidarity 
movement to refugees, the class forces in society, everyone / s are / s who in the summer 
of 2015 until today have stood at the side of refugees and have turned solidarity in a 
public, open and social power, must join forces to create a major social confrontation 
pole in Euro-Turkish agreement to escalate their opposition to it, and eventually, to 
overthrow. It is our duty towards human lives threatened by racist policies imposed. Is 
the debt of life against death.

To empower and win solidarity for the final defeat of racism and the State designs and 
Chapter aimed at devaluation of our lives.
