This March 8th with the comrades of the Gender Commission adhered to the S.R.O.V Capital we consider it`s necessary to raise the flag of the struggle of women, girls, lesbians, transsexuals and transvestites1 from all over the world who suffer daily patriarchal oppression.

In Argentina, in the month of June 2018, the Chamber of Deputies approved the right to voluntary termination of pregnancy. The vote closed at 129 in favor, 125 against and one abstention. It was a surprise ending after almost 24 hours of debate where the green tide marked presence in every moment. On the contrary, in August the Senate Chamber rejects this right. It was by 38 votes to 31.

They were 2 very intense months, where the subject was debated and made visible in different areas. That is how we saw ourselves discussing the problems in our jobs, schools and even homes. As a result, the “International Abortion Day” we went to the streets different unions, social organizations and organizations in favor of the decriminalization of the voluntary interruption of pregnancy. We march from Congress to Plaza de Mayo demanding our right because we believe that abortion is a privilege of class and we can not let our camrades, friends and sisters keep dying.

Along with this fight we also demand that the law of integral sexual education be put into effect in schools and in every possible space where we can inform ourselves about our rights. On the other hand, we also demand that contraceptive methods be within our reach, treating how unfruitful they can be since they are in primary health care centers (C.A.P.S) and hospitals in deplorable conditions.

On the other hand, the culture of patriarchy along with the media, which are the ones that make visible the morbidity of all the cases of women victims of femicides in our society, were responsible for ridiculing all of us who carried out this struggle. Deverting the importance of pointing to the behaviors of those who exercise these circles of violence that end with our deaths. We denounce the justifications of the patriarchal media against these aberrant facts. We know that the micro and macro machisms that defend are not an invention and we find them in all environments: work, student, domestic, in our organizations or even in the streets.

Femicides and transvesticide 2 in our region do not stop growing. According to the last report of the Procurator General of the Province of Buenos Aires in the last decade, 2638 women died just because they were women, 75% of the cases at the hands of relatives, couples or former partners, a femicide every 32 hours. 38% was perpetrated with a knife. From the beginning of 2019 until January 31, 26 femicides were registered.

According to figures from the Casa del Encuentro organization, between June 3, 2015 and May 29, 2018, there were 871 femicides (109 linked) and 24 transvesticide. 114 femicides from January to March and 4 transvesticide in what was 2018, a figure that is debatable given the lack of visibility of these crimes for Justice and the media. Between 2008 to 2017 the research report of femicides by province, the femicide rate per 100,000 inhabitants, average population censuses 2001-2010 City of Buenos Aires had 4.18; La Rioja 4.19; San Juan 4.84; Buenos Aires 5.54; Mendoza 5.94; San Luis 6.24; Chubut 6.48; Tucumán 6.55; Corrientes 6.74; La Pampa 6.89; Cordoba 6.92; Santa Fe 7.29; Catamarca 7.34; Rio Negro 7.51; Neuquén 7.61; Chaco 8.24; Entre Ríos 8.49; Tierra del Fuego 8.64; Formosa 8.66; Santa Cruz 9.12; Misiones 9.98; Jujuy 10.24; Salta 12.51; Santiago del estero 12.58.

On the other hand, activists of the transvestite collective and organizations such as Trans Memory Archive denounce that in addition to the transvesticide there were at least 30 deaths of fellow victims of what is called “social transvesticide”.

“The most invisible numbers are those, those deaths, which are crimes too. The residue that leaves you the lack of attention of the State: For the exercise of prostitution, the lack of access to health. It is residual violence. All trans have residual violence. There is no awareness of that violence: From when you receive the scream “fag” until they attack you on the street. The deaths by industrial injectable silicone is a topic that is not talked about. And in health there are no treatments for removal and it is a permanent danger and self-inflicted by social mandates”, Lara Bertolini, transvestite activist and worker of the Public Prosecutor’s Office, told Presentes. 3

On the other hand it is necessary to mention and emphasize cases that go unpunished. To give an example; in Corrientes 20% of the cases are femicides since 2013. The data arises according to the statistical record of NORTH of Corrientes (daily). In Buenos Aires the case of Lucía Perez, young Marplatense, who was murdered in a terrible way. The Oral Criminal Court No. 1 of Mar Del Plata sentenced the defendants Matías Farías (25) and Juan Pablo Offidani (43) for possession of narcotics for aggravated commercialization, as it was detrimental to minors and in the vicinity of an educational establishment. Each was given 8 years in prison plus a $ 135,000 fine. The third accused Alejandro Maciel (61), charged with concealment, was acquitted. None were charged with rape, murder and torture.

We are working women and therefore our central struggle is against capitalism, which we consider an economic system based on human exploitation. Capitalism is today the main cause of the oppression of women and of any other dissident identity and patriarchy works as an axis to nuclear this oppression by guaranteeing it socially. We firmly believe that the struggle against patriarchy is also the struggle against capitalism, because the capitalist economic system accentuates and perpetuates our double exploitation.

As working women we collectively organize ourselves to carry out our historical task: Destroying the capitalist economic system and its social ties of plundering. Only in this way will we be able to emancipate ourselves from all oppression.

We consider that the presence of women in the union is of vital importance because historically we have been denied to participate and we have been quickly excluded. This relegation, this exclusion has delayed our battle against the capitalist economic system. Well, as already mentioned, this economic system always needed patriarchy to shape its domination. We think and trust that our battle for emancipation is a battle for the liberation of the working class as a whole.

We must reinforce the struggle to end the oppression of women and any form of plundering and exploitation of workers.

Our primary objective will then be to intensify the struggle against patriarchy, to confront the violence of this economic system, to conquer and defend our rights.

From our workplaces, with our female partners, lesbians, transvestites and transgenders we propose to organize collectively to fight for a political, economic and social transformation. Building ties and relations of solidarity and closeness between women.

We affirm that our organization must be collective and of an emancipatory nature in such a way that all our struggles in the social revolution flow together.

It is necessary to assume our commitment and permanently maintain actions that advocate for the emancipation of our class, and thus carry out our historic task: to free ourselves from exploitation.

The transvestite activist Lohana Berkins -1965 – 2016- explains why transvestism and transsexuality are not the same: «We hold the transvestite identity not only by resorting to linguistic regionalism, but to circumstances and characteristics that make transvestism a phenomenon different from the North American and European transgenerity. In the first place, transvestites live different circumstances from those that cross many transgenders of other countries, who often resort to sex reassignment surgeries and aim to rearrange themselves in binary logic as women or men. Many Latin American transvestites claim the option of occupying a position outside of binarism and it is our objective to destabilize the male and female categories. Secondly, the word transgenerity originated from theoretical works developed within the framework of the American academy. In contrast, as I mentioned earlier, the term transvestite in Latin America comes from medicine and has been appropriate, reworked and incarnated by the transvestites themselves to call themselves. This is the term in which we recognize ourselves and which we choose to build ourselves as subjects of rights. »(Berkins, 2009, p.2)

 The transvesticide is aggravated homicide for having been executed mediating gender violence for hatred of gender identity.

Amazon despide a una delegada sindical de Inicjatywa Pracownicza. ¡Haz que Amazon lo pague!
El 9 de noviembre de 2021, Amazon Polonia entregó un aviso de despido a Magda Malinowska, que ha trabajado durante 6 años en su almacén de Sady, cerca de Poznan. Magda era representante sindical e inspectora de salud y seguridad elegida por los miembros del sindicato.  El despido fue aún más grave teniendo en cuenta que se llevó a cabo tras unas reclamaciones del sindicato que fueron presentadas por escrito.  Como inspectora de seguridad e higiene, Magda participó en la investigación de la muerte de uno de sus compañeros, que falleció en su puesto de trabajo en septiembre de 2021.

  • Attack on FAL’s Madrid office!
 
Authoritarians go against anarchist ideas!

Fundación Anselmo Lorenzo (FAL) is a foundation established by CNT to preserve the rich history of the libertarian movement in Spain and to promote anarchist ideas and culture. It has a bookshop, a lecture hall and meeting rooms and a library in downtown Madrid. If you’ve ever been to town, you may have visited, as it’s a well-known reference in libertarian circles nationwide.

This office of FAL has been attacked. Last Monday, we discovered that someone’s authoritarian drive had been busy during the weekend.

Whoever it was, their efforts were focused on rendering the lock unusable and smashing the front glass. They used spray paint, glue and other materials and picks or hammers. This level of preparation shows a great deal of intent. We’d wish that they devoted similar efforts to achieve important goals, like social justice or class solidarity.

Let’s be clear, this is an attack on anarchist ideas carried out in a fascist-like manner. What would be the point, otherwise, in acting against bookshelves and a lecture hall?

Libertarian ideas, books and culture have been attacked. It is obvious that whoever carried this act out are not regulars at our events… if they were, they would have read, listened and debated and would not have allowed themselves to be manipulated into this wanton act.

Needless to say, we condemn this attack. Luckily, only material damage has been inflicted. The Fundacion is open again, though we still have some tidy-up to do.

As usual, as always, we forge ahead with positive, constructive action.

  • ¡Atacada la sede de FAL en Madrid!

¡Agresión autoritaria contra la cultura anarquista!

La Fundación Anselmo Lorenzo (FAL) es una organización dependiente de CNT para la conservación de la rica historia del movimiento libertario y la divulgación del pensamiento, la cultura y las ideas anarquistas. Cuenta con una librería, salón de actos, salas de reuniones y biblioteca en el centro de Madrid. Es probable que la conozcas, si alguna vez has visitado la ciudad, porque es un referente en el panorama libertario peninsular.

Pues bien, esta sede de la Fundación Anselmo Lorenzo ha sido atacada. El pasado lunes nos encontramos con que el ánimo destructivo de alguien estuvo muy activo el fin de semana.

Volcaron sus esfuerzos en romper la cerradura y destruir el cristal de la fachada con pintura y picos, lo que demuestra que se habían preparado. Ojalá se preparasen igual para luchar por cosas importantes como la justicia social o la solidaridad.

Un ataque a la Cultura Libertaria con maneras que son propias de fascistas, pero que parecen proliferar. ¿Qué sentido puede tener atacar un lugar presidido por estanterías con libros y espacios de difusión, si no es así?

Un ataque a la Cultura, al mundo de los libros y del pensamiento libertario. Está claro que quienes han llevado el ataque no pueden ser personas ‘asiduas’ de la Fundación… habrían leído, escuchado y discutido, y no se dejarían manipular por esa violencia sin sentido.

Por supuesto, condenamos la acción y sus consecuencias, afortunadamente solo materiales. Y ya volvemos a estar en marcha, arreglándolo todo… ya sabéis, la obra siempre constructiva.

  • Comunicado de prensa del sindicato FAU: delegación de paz retenida en el hotel, acto prohibido

[14 de junio, 10 a.m., Erbil] Todos los integrantes de la delegación de paz al norte de Irak se encuentran detenidos hoy en su hotel para impedir la celebración de un acto y una rueda de prensa frente a la oficina de la misión de la ONU en Erbil, algo a lo que ayer se había comprometido un representante del gobierno de la región.

Aproximadamente 30 peshmergas, armados con fusiles de asalto, custodian a las 60 personas que integran la delegación. Ayer mismo, la delegación se reunió con el ministro de Exteriores del Gobierno de la Región Autónoma del Kurdistán Iraquí (PDK), quien empeñó su palabra en que se permitiría la realización del acto. De momento, parece que la detención no es estricta, pero se han prohibido todos los actos públicos. Otros delegados se encuentran custodiados en este momento.

Wolf Meyer, integrante del secretariado internacional de FAU: “estas actuaciones del gobierno del Kurdistán Iraquí son indignas de unas relaciones internacionales oficiales y recuerdan, no a una democracia, sino a la dictadura que se vive en Turquía. Se nos arresta, deporta y detiene con al apoyo y la complicidad del Gobierno alemán. Exigimos la puesta en libertad inmediata de todas las personas prisioneras, que se respete el derecho a manifestarse y que se honren los acuerdos y la palabra dada. Pedimos a todos los sindicatos de base que alcen su voz con determinación frente a la situación que se vive ahora mismo en Erbil”.

  • [June 14, 10 a.m., Erbil] The entire peace delegation in northern Iraq is being held in its hotel today to prevent a rally and press conference in front of the UN representation in Erbil, which was promised yesterday by a government representative.

About 30 Peshmerga with assault rifles are keeping the 60-strong peace delegation in northern Iraq in their hotel. Only yesterday, the delegation met with the foreign minister of the Autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan Region (PDK) who promised the rally could take place. Currently, the detention seems to be relaxed, but all demonstrations are still banned. Other delegates are currently in custody.

Wolf Meyer, member of the international committee of the FAU: “The current actions of the government of the Iraqi Kurdistan are unworthy of official international relations and are reminiscent not of a civil democracy but of a Turkish dictatorship. We are being arrested, deported, detained – with support and acquiescence of the German government. We demand all prisoners be released, the right to demonstrate and that joint agreements be respected. We ask all trade unions to find clear words for the current situation in Erbil.”

  • Delegation of the FAU in Northern Iraq

On the road against war and for internationalism in action!
The Free Workers Union is currently participating in a large international delegation in the Autonomous Region of Kurdistan (Northern Iraq). The reason for this is the ongoing human rights crimes, military actions and provocations on the part of the Turkish government and the Barzani regime¹, which is close to the Turkish government, as well as the worsening working and living conditions for the workers of the region.

As an internationalist labour union federation, we stand with the workers and peasants all over the world against the Turkish dictatorship, which is covering the whole region of the so-called Middle East with war, destruction of nature and political oppression.

Background

The Turkish regime under dictator Recep Tayyip Erdoğan pursues a policy of annexation and ethnic cleansing². The biggest counterweight against this racist war policy is the communalist movement³. This movement is organized in Turkey, Syria and Iraq and is mainly supported by Kurds, but also Yezidis, Arabs, Turkmens, Assyrians and members of many other communities as a multi-ethnic project.

In Iraq, Turkey is currently attempting to take control of the retreat areas of communalist organizations, as well as border areas with the communalist-administered region of northern and eastern Syria (also known as Rojava). Thus, it regularly carries out bombardments on Iraqi territory against alleged or actual revolutionaries. Furthermore, the Barzani clan and the Turkish state are expanding their military presence in these areas. In recent months, over 40 military bases have been established and thousands of soldiers have been deployed to the region.

With the current attacks and air strikes, Turkey is trying to provoke an intra-Kurdish war between communalists and the Barzani regime, which is economically dependent on Turkey. This tactic aims to weaken Kurdish resistance to Turkey, cut off supply routes to northeastern Syria, and legitimize a Turkish occupation of parts of Iraq.

  • Delegación de FAU en el norte de Irak

¡En marcha contra la guerra y por el internacionalismo en acción!

FAU (Sindicato de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras Libres) participa actualmente en una gran delegación internacional a la Región Autónoma del Kurdistán (Norte de Irak). El motivo de esta es oponerse a las incesantes violaciones de los derechos humanos, las ofensivas militares y las provocaciones por parte del gobierno turco y del régimen de Barzani¹, muy próximo a aquel, así como al deterioro de las condiciones laborales y vitales de las personas trabajadoras en la región.

Como federación sindical internacionalista que es FAU, estaremos siempre junto a trabajadores y trabajadoras, campesinos y campesinas de todo el mundo, contra la dictadura turca, que siembra la guerra, la destrucción del medio ambiente y la opresión política en todo el ámbito de la región denominada Oriente Medio.

Antecedentes

El régimen turco del dictador Recep Tayyip Erdoğan lleva a cabo una política de anexión y limpieza étnica². El mayor obstáculo frente a esta expansión de la guerra racista es el movimiento del confederalismo democrático³. Este se encuentra organizado en Turquía, Siria e Irak y recibe el apoyo, principalmente, de la población kurda, pero también yazidí, árabe, turcomana, asiria y de integrantes de muchas otras comunidades, porque se trata de un proyecto multiétnico.

En Irak, el gobierno turco pretende actualmente hacerse con el control de las zonas en que se refugian las organizaciones del confederalismo democrático, así como de las regiones fronterizas con la parte del norte y el este de Siria en las que está implantado este proyecto (también conocida como Rojava). Por este motivo, bombardea de manera regular el territorio iraquí, para atacar a revolucionarios imaginados o reales. Además, el clan Barzani y el estado turco están ampliando su presencia militar en estas zonas. En los últimos meses, han establecido más de 40 bases militares y han desplegado miles de soldados en la región.
