Bachmut, 19. April 2023 – Lesung und Gespräch [DE]

Der 19. April 2023 war für die anarchistische und antiautoritäre Bewegung ein schwerer Schlag. Drei Aktivist*innen wurden an der Front in der Ukraine in einem Hinterhalt getötet: Dmitri Petrow aus Russland, Finbar Cafferkey aus Irland und Cooper Andrews aus den USA. Am 9. September wäre Dimas Geburtstag und zu diesem Anlass haben wir die Broschüre „Dmitry Petrow“, die 2023 von CrimethInc veröffentlicht wurde, ins Deutsche übersetzt, um weitere Texte ergänzt und aktualisiert. In seinem letzten Brief schrieb Cooper, dass der Krieg vermutlich nicht so schnell vorbei sein wird, und er behielt recht. Die Hoffnung auf ein baldiges Ende ist verschwunden. Die Folgen des Krieges, wenn er doch irgendwann zu Ende sein wird, die physische und psychische Zerstörung der ukrainischen Gesellschaft im Allgemeinen und der anarchistischen Bewegung im Besonderen sind unvorstellbar. Wir möchten mit euch gemeinsam an die erinnern, die nicht mehr mit uns sind. Wir werden bei dieser Veranstaltung aus dem Buch lesen, Spenden für unsere Genoss*innen sammeln und mit euch ins Gespräch kommen. Wir wollen die Stimmen von Dima, Finbar und Cooper hörbar machen, die eine schwerwiegende Wahl getroffen und dafür einen hohen Preis gezahlt haben. Was haben sie uns zu sagen? Was bedeutet das für uns? Und welche Schlüsse ziehen wir daraus?

Community self-defence in United states – talk with an Anarchist from so called US [EN]

An hour long presentation on some concepts of community armed self defense among a section of the anti-authoritarian left in the so-called United States. We’ll focus on development of certain tendencies and groups in the last quarter of a century with a focus on anarchist formations and frameworks as well as discussing some key moments in recent history that speak to the current state of this movement from the perspective of the speaker.

Following the speech, we’ll have at least 30 minutes for audience questions. Hosted by Bursts, an anarchist mostly engaged in movement media through The Final Straw Radio and anti-repression work via Blue Ridge Anarchist Black Cross.

Autonomous kitchen councils – The mutual aid organizing model emerging from the struggle against cop-city [EN]

In 2021, in so-called Atlanta, GA, a group of young people land defenders began resisting the construction of a police training facility ( known now as Cop City) by moving themselves to live in the Weelaunee Forest in south Atlanta, putting their bodies against ecological destruction and police militarization. By 2023, they were forcibly removed. Some of them—Indigenous identified trans women — continued caring for each other and carried on important conversations started at the Weelaunee Forest. Out of this 4 years conversations process emerged a set of principles rooted in everyday survival: trying to build autonomy from the ground up by balancing community care with revolutionary broad actions and projects .The culmination of these processes of nurishment & recipes collective creation is called the Autonomous Kitchen Council( AKC) , an organizing & cultural production model, a tool for all communities building,defending and celebrating their spaces and mutual aid & abundance wirldwide. One lesson rings clear: There is no liberation without land. As the Weelaunee defenders teach us—abundance exists, but it must be recognized, celebrated and nowadays, increasingly, defended. By incorporating the four principles of the Autonomous Kitchen Council in the collective day-to-day struggle against the rising challenges of fascism, capitalism and resource scarcity, we are reclaiming the means to survive and nourish each other beyond the systems that are collapsing around us.

Self-organizing for mental well-being [EN]


Workshop with „this is insane!“
The workshop intends to open a conversation about tools and practices that enable self-determination and self-organization for mental well-being. After a short introduction on the history of antipsychiatric struggles and some of its current stakes, we will share and discuss tools we can use in order to support each other in circumstances of mental suffering, distress, breakdowns, or other moments we don’t feel good.

Mental health related questions should not be considered as individual private issues but rather as political collective questions. And therefore we can develop collective and solidaric propositions to deal
with them, and support each other.

Crisis plans and support groups are some of those accessible and actionable tools we can introduce in our lives and our communities, among our friends and affinity circles. So that a situation of distress or doubts does not result in social isolation, or face for unique possible answer the necessity to look alone for professional help. They allow us to learn about ourselves and what we experience, they give the
possibility to share those insights with people around us, and create the conditions we collectively need to develop skills and capacities for community support.

Different resources in the forms of zines and posters will be proposed to support the conversation and the reflection afterwards.
