Erste Beben - Aufstände der Erde

"Seit 2021 gibt es die Bewegung der „Soulèvements de la Terre“, eingedeutscht als „Aufstände der Erde“, die auch kollektiv als Autoren des Buches „Erste Beben“ signieren.

Sie schildern die ganze Vielfalt von Aktionen der beteiligten Aktivist*innen: Sabotage, Blockaden, Besetzungen, direkte Aktionen verschiedenster Art, spektakuläre wie klandestine Aktivitäten.

Die „Soulèvements“ sind ein Netzwerk aus Aktivist*innen, Bäuer*innen, unterschiedlichen Kollektiven etc., das den vielen Fragmenten des Widerstands einen Zusammenhalt gibt. ..."

Endlich ist ein #Buch auf Deutsch erschienen, dass uns einen genaueren Einblick in die vielseitigen Kämpfe in Frankreich gibt, die in der sog. Klima- und Umweltbewegung stattfinden.

Today in Labor History April 22, 1996: Peace activists Tom & Donna Howard-Hastings celebrated Earth Day 1996 by cutting down three power poles in Clam Lake, Wisconsin, preventing the launch of the U.S. Navy's first-strike nuclear submarine. They stapled an indictment against nuclear war to one of the poles and signed it "with disarming love, Tom & Donna." The district attorney charged them with criminal damage to property and sabotage. However, a jury found them not guilty of sabotage. This was just the fourth time in 16 years that members of the Plowshares antinuclear movement were acquitted of such charges. From 1980-1995, there had been 57 trials of antinuclear activists on sabotage charges. In northern Wisconsin, these direct actions focused on Extremely Low-Frequency transmitters, known as ELF, used to communicate with submerged nuclear submarines.

I know Instagram is evil, but honestly, the Climate Liberation Aotearoa and 350 crew are killing it with the stuff they are posting about the #stocktonMine occupation (over 35 hours now!)

Here's a taster responding to Jones's ludicrous press release earlier today; but if you still have an account there, please give them some love because they are heroes and their posts are pure 🔥

Zu den Durchsuchungen, Vorladungen und Verhaftungen in #München und #Salzburg im Februar 2025

"Im Augenblick geht es erst mal darum, wie die Betroffenen unmittelbar unterstützt werden können. Die Gefangenen freuen sich bestimmt über Post, Soli-Aktionen und Feuerwerk und auch die anderen Beschuldigten und Zeug*innen können Support sicher gut gebrauchen. Die anstehenden Verfahren werden viel Geld kosten und Zeit in Anspruch nehmen. Praktische Infos wie ihr sie unterstützen könnt, findet ihr unten. Darüber hinaus sind uns aber noch zwei andere Punkte wichtig: wir alle sollten uns zum einen überlegen, wie wir uns gegen die (mögliche weitere) Repression von Staatsanwaltschaft und Bullen organisieren und schützen können. Zum anderen und mit Blick darauf, dass der Angriff nicht nur gegen die jetzt Beschuldigten sondern auch ganz grundsätzlich gegen eine antagonistische Praxis und Organisierung gerichtet ist, wollen wir mit euch unsere Gedanken zu militanter Praxis unter den gegebenen politischen Verhältnissen teilen. Vielleicht habt ihr da Widerspruch, vielleicht seht ihr auch Übereinstimmungen....."

When the #Greenpeace ship Arctic Sunrise set sail to protest the first ever oil drilling in the Arctic Ocean, none of the people on board could have known what was coming.

Seized at gunpoint by Russian forces, the #Arctic30 were thrust into headlines all over the world, facing up to 15 years in prison and finding themselves at the centre of a bitter international dispute.

Great Interview from @thebeautifulidea with Dean Spade!

"In a time of increasing despair, he urges us to move beyond symbolic actions and embrace riskier, more meaningful forms of action that require trust, deep solidarity, and real vulnerability. We touch on Spade's personal journey of radicalization, think about some of the potential of this moment, and unpack some concrete tools for self-reflection and expression."

"We bypass politicians and go straight to the aggressors. This takes two forms. The first is about slowing the pace of the violence and making it harder for #Israel to carry out its aims. [...] The second form of disruption is focused on the Israeli economy."

YOU might fill this role. If you can't get to a protest, can't afford to put cash in the hat for #MutualAid, you may still be able to further #resistance by simply knowing enough people to connect a person who needs help with someone who can offer it.

That is #DirectAction. There IS NO MORE direct action than connecting someone to a lawyer, helping them find a room to rent, or making them dinner when they're low on food.

Never think that the help YOU can provide is worth less. Help is help.

Marietta, Georgia: Action Against White Supremacist Leader’s House

fuck racists

For years, the Sons of Confederate Veterans, a white supremacist group that exists to glorify slavery, organized a neo-Nazi rally in Stone Mountain Park with full state cooperation. They celebrate in a tacky and racist costume bought with the stolen riches of the Black and Indigenous peoples. White supremacists should not feel safe as long as they actively work for the destruction of our Black, Indigenous, queer safety. It is not difficult to find their emails, addresses and employers. Use the tools at your disposal (not just a useless rally) to prevent these fools from using public resources for shit. Let us completely stop their racist, xenophobic, Islamophobic, homophobic and antisemitic beliefs.

At one point on the night of April 12, a group of people interested in achieving this goal visited one, Timothy Pilgrim, who is the commander of the Georgia division of the Sons of Confederate Veterans at his house in Marietta, GA, in the 20 Old Fuller Mill Road. We painted the sayings “NO RALLY” and “NO SCV” on their house, their windows and their entrance, we poured lawn killer in his front yard, stuck glue in his front lock, and left a piece of roadkill on his welcome carpet. We knew that these cowards would quickly move to cover their humiliation, so we also take photos to share them with you. Although the quality is low, we hope that our anger can be seen clearly.

House calls have long been one of the favorite tactics of South white supremacists. They used intimidation and humiliation to bully, threaten and sometimes even kill members of the community. Well, anarchists can also make house calls. Consider this our burning cross. CANCEL THE RALLY.
