Não vai ter Copa, só revolta. Brazil Uprising Benefit, Volkseten Vegazulu

from: joesgarage20140623_joes_garage_There_will_be_no_Cup_only_revolt

Monday June 23th 2014: Não vai ter Copa, só revolta. Brazil Uprising Benefit, Volkseten Vegazulu, 7pm.

In the last few years, and specially after the riots in june 2013, a big social movement wants to say no to the world cup in Brazil. In a country know as the “Country of football” this seems surprising, but the re-arrangement of the cities to enter in the model wanted by the FIFA and a “touristic model” made the poor people even more excluded, cause of that many riot movements happened in the country in these last few years. These movements only got visibility in the international media when in june 2013 massive riots exploded in the whole country. Continue reading Não vai ter Copa, só revolta.

Update on anarchist comrade Gabriel Pombo da Silva (Spain)

499277From: 325

On 13th June 13 2012, among the many police operations against anarchists, the Italian government launched a repressive attack called ‘Operation Ardire’ on a dozen comrades. There were 40 raids, 24 people under investigation and 8 comrades sent to jail. In this case they tried to give a wider form to the operation, by accusing comrades imprisoned in different European countries such as Greece, Switzerland and Germany.

As usual, the State showed its authoritarian face against its sworn enemies, and fabricated roles of leaders, agents and organizers within yet another ‘terrorist association’, when in fact there were affinities, letter exchanges with prisoners, struggles and claims.
