New Year’s eve has become a day of action against the prison world around the globe. Prison has long been the logical conclusion for poor and marginalized people in a capitalist society. As Anarchists or as workers we find ourselves in conflict with a conspiracy of the state and capital to lock us up and maintain control over our daily lives. Ironically, our comrades regularly find themselves being accused of conspiracy, as they organize in opposition to G20 summits, and capitalist mega-projects wherever they reside. The state has made it clear that if we are not willing to accept a world of surveillance cameras, terrorism hysteria, police on every street, and the daily grind that leaves us in poor health, and with little or no time to build relationships that break through the expected racism, and misogyny of our society; that they will kidnap a few of us to make examples out of. Indigenous warriors like Harriet Nahanee are punished with death for standing in their way, and refusing to accept the courts’ authority. Migrants fleeing unlivable circumstances, likewise are imprisoned and labeled terrorists. Under the guise of “solving homelessness,” the Government can declare a state of emergency and turn the prison of life on the street and the prison of living in a slum hotel, into the prison of a psychiatric institution. It is in the spirit and celebration of uncompromising war with the prison system as a whole, and the world that needs it that we call for a demonstration against prisons on December 31st, 2010!
The Passion For Freedom is Stronger than all Prisons!!
Get Ready!!
