On March 16th, movements from 12 countries call for a global uprising to stop racism and fascists. We are outraged by the cruel crimes of the Trump and the EU governments against migrants and refugees who pave the way for the rise of fascists. That’s why will we flood the streets in Athens, Thessaloniki, New York, Berlin, London, Vienna, Paris, Barcelona,​​Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Warsaw, Istanbul, Nicosia.
On March 16th, we are demonstrating so that the Golden Dawn murderers will be jailed, to speed up their trial and to sentence them for life. The murder of the Albanian land worker Petrit Zilfe in Corfu confirms tragically that as long they are moving freely posing as patriots, they are a danger to everyone.
On March 16th, workers who struggle for hiring tens of thousands of new recruits, for making permanent the jobs of provisional contract staff in schools, municipalities and hospitals, for Collective Agreements everywhere, we are demonstrating so that we will not let refugees and migrants, part of the working class, be turned into scapegoats and to work without rights or to be closed in concentration camps and to be secluded in the islands. The migrants are not responsible for unemployment and poverty, but the bankers, the ship owners and the industrialists, for whose profits the governments imposed the memorandums. The imperialists are to blame - who bombed and destroyed their countries.
On March 16th, we are demonstrating in unity ,students, teachers and parents, all of whom have not allowed the Far-right and the Right to put up provocative nationalist occupations of hatred for the neighboring peoples in Albania, Macedonia and Turkey. In our schools the refugee children  are welcome and not neo-nazis, as are the struggles for public free education, not racism.
On March 16th, students who resist the dissolution of the public university by the laws and threats of Mitsotakis and Bakoyannis for the abolition of asylum, we will be on the streets with the banners of our unions and we will be demonstrating!
On March 16th, we are demonstrating along with migrant communities and refugees because for four years with the SYRIZA government we did not see any passage of legislation for the legalization of migrants - while on the contrary Amygdaleza and detention centers are full, refugees are secluded in open prisons-camps, deportations are being made by police at night in Evros, refugees are killed while persecuted by police in Egnatia highway. We are approaching elections with migrants always non-voting, their children awaiting citizenship, migrants from Pakistan not being able to get a certificate from the Hellenic Consulate in Islamabad - which thus blocks their every right! As for the first mosque, it will probably wait for even more years because the government are going in cahoots with the Church and Islamophobia is always rampant!
On March 16th, we are demonstrating for we do not forget that Zackie Kostopoulos' murder reminded us that the struggle to defend diversity and the conflict with sexism and the repression of LGBTQI, women and the disabled, is necessary to save lives and rights.
We call on trade unions, student unions, the Left and collectives in the neighborhoods, immigrant communities, the LGBTQI community, women's movements, disabled people's movements, the people of Letters and the Arts to be present with a loud voice in the global mobilization against racism and of fascism.
Time to smash the fascists, put an end to the Fortress-Europe!

Thousands rise in Germany, Italy, Austria, Britain not to let fascism pass and for the winning of solidarity with the refugees against the Fortress-Europe.
Together with this new hopeful movement, the anti-fascist movement in Greece showed the power that can crush the fascists. On September 15 and 18, thousands flooded the streets at the five years anniversary since the assassination of Pavlos Fissas, at the same time responding to the new EU racist agreements that adopt the Trump agenda but also claiming that the completion of the Golden Dawn trial will mean that neo-Nazi assassins will go to jail. Working people, students, migrants, refugees from the camps, artists, women and LGBTQI, along with KEERFA gave a potent presence in Syntagma square on 15 September. Now we have to discuss how we organize the follow-up.

The dashing entrance of the anti-fascist and anti-racist movement in Europe this summer over the challenges of neo-Nazis and the racist policies of governments has shown that there exists the power that can block their way so that we do not return to the nightmares of the prevalence of Nazism and fascism of the interwar era.
In Germany, 65,000 flooded the streets of Chemnitz to drive away the neo-Nazis. Together with the ones in Hamburg, Berlin and Frankfurt, thousands protest against Seehofer, Merkel's interior minister, who closes the border to refugees with outposts and detention centers.
In London, more than a million protesters declared Trump unwelcome, and undesirable racism, Islamophobia, sexism; then continued with a anti-fascist movement against fascists masked as "Democratic football fans", in reality fans of the fascist Robinson, who perform racist attacks.
In Austria, anti-fascists besieged EU ministers' meetings against closed borders, demanding that solidarity bridges be built - rather than walls.
In Italy, the far-right Interior Minister Salvini, who prevents the refugees' ships that are salvaged in the Mediterranean from docking in Italian ports, is being besieged by anti-racist protesters in one city after another. Together they are preparing a nationwide anti-fascist demonstration in Rome.

The International Meeting and the Pan-Hellenic Assembly on 13 October are a way to organize the battles together, coordinate them across Europe and scale them up. Golden Dawn, despite the isolation imposed by the trial for three and a half years, attempts with the mask of “Warrior for Macedonia” to escape the power of the movement. We have to continue the campaign for the trial-conviction, but also to prevent the neo-Nazis from engaging in attacks on our neighborhoods.
At the same time, we have to struggle to put an end to the disgrace of Moria at Lesvos and all the miserable EU agreements that turn the Mediterranean into a wet grave for thousands of refugees. We are struggling to open the borders, to bring all refugees to cities, to provide them with asylum, shelter, education and health.

We call on unions, student associations, grassroots movements, immigrant and refugee communities, movements of women, LGTBQI, disabled, on people of the arts and letters to support the International Meeting and the Pan-Hellenic Assembly.

Together we have the strength to win.

18h – 20h Tous ensemble pour effacer les Nazis

Des milliers se soulèvent en Allemagne, en Italie, en Autriche, en Grande-Bretagne pour ne pas laisser passer le fascisme et pour que la solidarité au réfugiés vainque contre l’Europe-forteresse.
Avec ce nouveau mouvement plein d’espoir, le mouvement antifasciste en Grèce a montré où est la force qui peut en finir avec les fascistes. Les 15 et 18 Septembre, des milliers ont inondé les rues pour les 5 ans depuis l’assassinat de Pavlos Fyssas, donnant une réponse aux nouveaux accords racistes de l’U.E. qui adoptent l’agenda de Trump, mais aussi revendiquant que termine le procès de l’Aube Dorée avec les assassins néonazis en prison. Travailleurs, étudiants, immigrés, refugies des camps, artistes, femmes et LGBTQ avec la KEERFA ont participé de manière dynamique a Syndagma le 15 Septembre. Nous devons maintenant discuter de comment nous organisons la suite.
L’entrée massive du mouvement antifasciste et antiraciste en Europe cet été face aux provocations des néonazis mais aussi des politiques racistes des gouvernements, a montré que la force existe qui peut leur barrer la route afin de ne jamais retourner au cauchemar du nazisme et du fascisme des années ’30.

austehen gegen rassismusKEERFA - MOVEMENT UNITED AGAINST RACISM AND FASCIST THREAT

International Meeting and Pan-Hellenic Assembly against Fascism and Racism, Athens, October 13, 2018, Indoor Basketball Course at Rouf.

In Europe and America, the racist far right and the fascists are growing stronger because of the policies of governments that openly play the card of racism while continuing the policies of fierce austerity. The rise of Trump with the vulgar racist policies of child separation from mothers, the attack on Muslims, has inflated the fascist sails everywhere.

Governments turn migrants and refugees into scapegoats to escape their own responsibilities for their bankrupt recipes of austerity and imperialist interventions in the countries of Asia, Africa and the Middle East.

Trump’s policies are now becoming EU policies. The EU's racist agreement on 28 June with the announcement of closed concentration camps, of "disembarking platforms" – floating prisons, of mass deportations, amounts to a disorderly retreat by traditional parties to far right pressures.

The far right has greater potential as it is in ministries in the governments of Italy and Austria, it is the main opposition in Germany, while defining the policies of the governments of East Europe. Fortress Europe turns the Mediterranean into a water graveyard for thousands of refugees trying to escape from wars, poverty and oppression.

Such retreats effectively accelerate the rise of the far right and fascists rather than stem it. It is urgent to strengthen resistance and coordinate it across Europe and internationally to stop the threat of fascism and the new racist campaign in Europe that grows it.

It is hopeful that new mass movements against racism and fascism are growing everywhere, as in Germany, Austria, France, Britain, Italy and the USA. Thousands protest against Trump, fascists and racists in every corner of Europe and the United States.

The international day of action on 17 March 2018 showed the potential for international coordination of the movement.

The struggle against the neonazis of Golden Dawn, who, encouraged by the nationalist rallies on Macedonia, threatened with a coup from the podium of the Parliament, escalates as the culmination of the trial of the murderers of Pavlos Fyssas and Shahzat Luqman approaches. It is time to put them to jail, to shut down all their offices-lairs!

The struggle to tear down the walls of the Fortress Europe, for open borders for the victimized, for asylum and shelter for refugees, to repel Islamophobia, antisemitism, sexism, is a priority for the workers and youth movement that fight against austerity and cuts.

We invite you to participate and support the International Meeting and the Pan-Hellenic Assembly on 13 October in Athens. It is a big step forward in organizing antifascist and antiracist mobilizations and in international coordination.

17/3 INTERNATIONAL DAY AGAINST RACISM AND FASCISM
We Demonstrate!
 
IN GREECE AND ALL OVER THE PLANET
ATHENS Omonia 3pm
 
• CLOSE DOWN THE OFFICES OF GOLDEN DAWN 
• CONVICT AND IMPRISON THE MURDERERS
• REPEAL THE EU-TURKEY-LIBYA RACIST AGREEMENTS
• CLOSE DOWN THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS
• OPEN THE BORDERS, REFUGEES ARE WELCOME
Rise-up across Europe to block the ascent of the fascist threat and racism!
On March 17, workers and youth, refugees and immigrants, are preparing to flood the streets in Britain, Austria, France, Germany, Poland, Cyprus, Turkey, Denmark, the Netherlands to send the message of resistance against the Fortress-Europe that brought fascists to the fore.
 
We too, go ahead with all of them! We put a barrier to the ascent of the fascists, forcing the Golden Dawn at the trial to apologize for their murders, demanding that their officesin our neighborhoods -bases for their raids- be closed, building solidarity with refugees and immigrants to break their isolation in the islands, and to welcome them into open cities.
The ascent of the Far-Right and fascists in Europe was born out of the racist policies of governments. This is how the Far Right has come to participate in the Austrian government, Lepen to pass into the second round of presidential elections in France and the racist Alternative For Germany to enter the parliament (Bundestag).
 
EU governments have closed the borders via the agreements with Turkey and Libya and have opened concentration camps from the Aegean Islands to the deserts of Libya, where even slave markets of immigrants have sprung up! More than three thousand drowned in the icy waters of the Mediterranean in 2017. The Muslims were turned into scapegoats by governments in order to break up resistance to policies of wild austerity and to support brutal imperialist interventions in Asia, Middle East, Africa. Tramp in the United States gave impetus to the Far Right by playing openly the card of Islamophobia and sexism.
 
Still, the resistance continues! We can stop the fascists and overturn the racist EU-Fortress policies. The Golden Dawn does not manage to take-off in Greece, despite the frustration caused by the government’s compromises with the Troikans and Trump, just because a massive united anti-fascist movement is blocking this road. A whole lot of people are indignant with the Mouzalas and government politicies, but it is turning its back on the New Democracy party, the Far Right and the Mayors, who are blatantly supporting them,aiming to persecute the refugees, to effect mass expulsions to Erdogan’s Turkey.
 
In 2017, thousands took part in massive rallies on March 18th and then in a massive march on 9 April to close the Neo-Nazi offices –bases for raid-after the assaultto assassinate student Alexis Lazaris. Four years since the assassination of PavlosFyssas, on September 16th, thousands marched again to the neo-Nazi headquarters along with hundreds of immigrants,angry for the massacres of Rohingyapeople in Myanmar.
 
We call on workers, students in the universities and second level schools, trade unions, migrant communities, solidarity movements for refugees, municipal grassroots movements, alltomassively mobilizeso as to make the 17th March a milestone to bring an end to the threat of fascism and to racist policies. Let’s pave the way for a Europe without neo-Nazis and racism!

Calling:

African network in Greece,
Greek Immigrant Forum, African
House, Cosmos of Culture,
KEERFA, organizations, collectives

Not again slaves in Africa!
No to the barbarity of the camps in Lesvos, Chios, Samos, Kos
Open the borders, free movement, no more Christmases in the campsClose down the concentration camps everywhere


Abolish the EU Shame Agreements with Libya and Turkey
Asylum for Refugees
No training to the Libyan Coast Guard's killers

We are angry at the bazaar of slaves,
which was set up in Libya,
with the African immigrants,
who are trying to get to Europe to escape death.
We are angry because little children with their mothers
are drowned again off Lesvos
while the Moria camp reminds of Guantanamo.


MANIFESTATION SAMEDI 2 DECEMBRE 15H A SYNDAGMA

Plus jamais d’esclaves en

Afrique !

on à la barbarie des camps de Lesbos, Chios, Samos, Kos
Ouvrez les frontières, libre circulation, pas d’autre Noel dans les camps
Fermeture des camps de concentration partout
Annulation des accords de la honte entre l’U.E et la Libye et la Turquie
Asile pour tous les réfugiés
Non à l’entrainement des assassins garde-côtes de Libye par la GrèceNous sommes choqués par le marché d’esclaves qui s’est mis en place en Libye avec les migrants Africains qui essaient de passer en Europe pour fuir la mort.
Nous sommes choqués parce-que à nouveau des petits enfants et leurs mères se noient au large de Lesbos alors que le camp de Moria rappelle celui de Guantanamo.

Ce sont les conséquences des accords racistes entre l’U.E. et la Turquie et la Libye.
Il faut les annuler ! Ce sont les politiques qui ont ouvert la voie à l’extrême-droite et aux fascistes dans toute l’Europe.

Les images d’horreur des marchés d’esclaves migrants Africains en Libye, retransmis par le CNN ont choqué des millions de gens. Depuis 2015, quand l’U.E. a signe l’accord avec la Turquie pour bloquer le chemin des Balkans et fermer le passage par la mer Egée, des milliers d’Africains qui fuyaient ont été poussés vers le passage le plus dangereux vers l’Europe, des cotes de Libye vers l’Italie. Et dans les iles de la mer Egée des milliers de réfugiés ont été enfermés dans des camps de rétention, alors qu’il leur a été interdit de rejoindre le continent.
