Pastor Evan Mawarire unwittingly began the #thisflag movement
The last 4 months in Zimbabwe can surely be characterized as an awakening of the
Zimbabwean working class, as thousands of these citizens have taken to the streets,
responding to Pastor Evan Mawarire’s call: “hatichatya” – we are not afraid. The #Thisflag
movement followed soon after. This is certainly a historic time for Zimbabwe; a time of
growing labour pains as the country (hopefully) enters a process of rebirth towards a better
and new Zimbabwe.
But before we can even begin to talk about a free Zimbabwe and how we would go about getting
that, we need to first have a clear and coherent class analysis of the Zimbabwean social and
political climate.
Understanding who we are fighting is essential.
Zimbabwe without a doubt needs to rid ourselves of the 92-year- old man who thinks the state
house is his graveyard. But in the same breath, we must rid itself of the oppressive state
system altogether. Swapping a vicious state capitalist manager with another is nowhere close
to constituting progress.

Nous sommes en colère et nous voulons l’abrogation de la loi Travail. Nous sommes en colère et nous refusons la mise en place d’un service civique obligatoire de neuf mois pour les jeunes. Nous sommes en colère car la destruction de la totalité du code du travail est sur la table et que c’est dès maintenant un enjeu majeur pour les droits des travailleuses et des travailleurs.
Nous sommes en colère contre ceux qui, tout l’été, ont instrumentalisé les attentats pour distiller le venin de la peur et le poison du racisme ; la haine et la division. Nous sommes en colère car cela fait des années que les gouvernements de droite comme de gauche accumulent les lois antisociales malgré des manifestations monstres, des blocages spectaculaires, des grèves fortes, des sondages négatifs.

This is a Call to Action Against Slavery in America
In one voice, rising from the cells of long term solitary confinement, echoed in the dormitories and cell blocks from Virginia to Oregon, we prisoners across the United States vow to finally end slavery in 2016.
O PT buscou sua governabilidade operando uma política de alianças que atraia e dividia setores oligárquicos da direita. Assim, foi empurrado para vala comum dos conchavos, lobbies, propinas, caixa dois, entre tantos esquemas de desvios de verbas públicas e favorecimentos de negócios privados. Na sociedade armou uma política de pacto social que fez chegar mecanismos de governo sobre as duas pontas da estrutura de classes. Fez política de crescimento dos ganhos do sistema financeiro e dos grandes capitais e, ao lado disso, atendeu com programas sociais os mais pobres que estavam desassistidos de políticas públicas. Mas deixou intactas as estruturas de concentração da riqueza e do poder, além de ter destinado boa parte dos orçamentos para o pagamento da dívida pública. Ou seja, os chamados “avanços” tiveram um preço alto para o país, em que a barriga dos poderosos ficou mais cheia ainda.
O resultado da engenharia de poder montada pelo PT, dentro da lógica desenvolvimentista, foi um golpe parlamentar que se criou nas oportunidades que o PT deu a direita oportunista.
Tras cuatro años de negociaciones, se firmó en la Habana, Cuba, el acuerdo de paz entre el gobierno de Juan Manuel Santos y las FARC-EP, mientras el proceso con el ELN sigue empantanado y el proceso con el EPL ni siquiera está en la agenda política. Los pronósticos que temían la posibilidad de un quiebre en las negociaciones han quedado ya sin base, cerrándose así un ciclo de lucha que, necesariamente, deberá abrir nuevos escenarios y posibilidades.
