Structural reasons for migrations – Brochures

The key to understanding the nature of the life and work of the migrants in Europe is to analyse the dependency links that have consolidated through decades of plundering of common property, financial speculation and indebtedness intheir territories of origin. Understanding the forced nature of these migrations does not only allow us to analyse the reasoning behind these long, hurried, uncertain and hopeful journeys. It also gives us the tools to understand the forms of work and lifestyles in these newfound homes and the relationships that persist with the families and homes in their country of origin.

Authors: María José Gordillo, Darío Farcy und Mariano Feliz.

These broschures are a cooperation between CEP Lohana Berkins and Movement Hub.

Bird Dogging Skillshare

Bird Dogging Skillshare

The tactic is about confronting decision makers and getting them to publically take a position (or embarrass themselves 😎). This can be aimed at increasing pressure, getting greater media exposure, or going viral on social media. In some cases, power and profit interests can be exposed to a wider audience.

Collective strategy development

The Phase5 collective has published a reader with methods to support groups, initiatives and alliances in the joint development of strategies. Behind this is a feminist claim: As many as possible should be involved in the formulation of longer-term plans, so that all the different perspectives become visible, disputable and decidable.

Defend Lützerath! Infocall

Defend Lützerath! Infocall

An event of X-tausend für Lützerath

The call will be in English

Title

In January, things will get serious: the coal corporation RWE and the german government want to evict and demolish the village of Lützerath. Huge quantities of one of the world’s dirtiest fossil fuels, lignite, lie beneath the village. RWE wants to extract a total of 280 million tons of this coal from the open pit mine that threatens the village – six times more than Germany’s last chance of staying within its 1.5° budget. Only we ourselves can stop this.

We expect the eviction to start in the 2nd week of January. On site, a diverse resistance has developed: there’s a protest camp, several squatted houses, weekly village walks and on Jan 14 there will be a large demonstration in or near Lützerath.

In this call we want to discuss with you the many ways you and your groups can be part of the resistance around Lützerath. https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85677022227
