On this October 18th, once again, with hearts warmed by rebellious joy
and with our feet firmly planted in our convictions, the Federação
Anarquista Gaúcha - FAG/CAB celebrates the milestone of another year of
the Gãh Ré Reoccupation in Morro Santana, in Porto Alegre. ---- Our more
than two decades of community activism in this hillside have brought us
closer to its people, their demands, their dreams and their struggle.
Our marches and walks have brought us alongside brave people like Gah
Té, a Kaingang leader in the city, chief of the reoccupation and now a
councilor of the Teia dos Povos. Together with the indigenous council of
the Reoccupation and our Kaingang relatives, we have stood shoulder to
shoulder in the fight against real estate speculation, land rentism and
the destruction of biomes in our neighborhoods and in our city.
After decades of waiting for institutions that only exposed the children
and young people of the Kaingang community to the violence of the
outskirts, precariousness, and racism, it was direct action that
returned the territory to its true owners. This struggle culminated on
the glorious night of October 18, 2022, when several sectors that were
said to be fighting turned everything they could towards the electoral
process, and the indigenous people tore down the fence and retook their
territory at the foot of the largest hill in the city, inaugurating a
victorious reoccupation that confronted the bankers and millionaires of
the criminal Maisonnave family (whom we denounced in the dossier),
recovering the territory for the people, through the hands of those who
fight, an important part of the forest still standing.
Another inspiring example of courage came with the occupation of the
FUNAI Local Technical Coordination in Porto Alegre in March 2023. The
direct action put pressure on the Foundation and managed to overturn the
repossession order against the community and, in addition, expedited the
arrival of specialized indigenous experts from FUNAI in Brasília to
Porto Alegre to carry out preliminary studies to qualify the demarcation.
Today we celebrate another year of private property being fought back,
giving space to rebel territory for reconstruction and care of the
forest against constructions that destroy nature.
