Antifascist “Guardening”

May 2017

In Prosfygika, we strongly believe in treating weeds like they are fascists, and fascists like they are weeds! They both have to go!!

To that end, we’ve started combining our antifascist presence in the neighborhood with weekly “guardening” sessions. Not only does this mean that we’re out and the neighborhood when Golden Dawn members (with heavy police protection) are passing by, but that we are using our time to improve the space that we live in and love. People who would only be comfortable in one space or the other also get the chance to interact in common work,meaning that the fiercest warriors are hanging out with the littlest kids!

PROPOSAL FOR PARTICIPATION IN THE NEIGHBOURHOOD OF EXARCHΕΙΑ

On 06/12/2008 the occupying police forces murdered 15-year-old Alexandros Grigoropoulos. This murder was not an isolated incident, as noted in popular opinion, strengthened by state run media; but the expected result of political and economic power imposed on the weaker classes. The murder of the young fighter that stood against society and the state that created it, show openly that there is no tolerance for those who make the decision to self-organize, and to fight back for social liberation.
