World Day Against Fascism and Racism

Rally at Athens, Omonia Square 2pm and Concert at Syntagma Square 4pm,

Thessaloniki, Ag. Venizelou 1pm

Patra, Georgiou Square 11am

Hania, Agora Square 1pm

On March 21 we demonstrate in many countries of the world against racism and fascism: New York, London, Berlin, Paris, Rome, Copenhagen, Vienna and Nicosia. We demonstrate in Athens, Thessaloniki, Patras and Chania.

With the new government of SYRIZA we continue our fight to finish with the Nazis of Golden Dawn and to break with racial discrimination. Our struggles brought the fall of the co-government of Samaras and Venizelos who opened concentration camps after the racist sweeps of ELAS (Greek Police), built the fence in Evros, kept drowning women and children in the Aegean, took back the right to citizenship and the vote of immigrants. The Police collaborated with the Golden Dawn in attacks in neighborhoods.

 

The murderers of Pavlos Fyssas and Sahzat Luqman have been referred to trial for instituting a criminal organization. We want them to go to jail. We want to stop any police cooperation with the Golden Dawn. To finish with the pogroms in the neighborhoods, terminate the smashing of our shops and the burning of our mosques.

The Islamophobia in Europe after the attack on Charlie Hebdo magazine has flared up. For the murders committed by some Islamists not all Muslims are to blame, in the same manner that for the mass killings by both French and NATO armies not all Christians are to blame. The imperialist interventions and the wars nourished the ISIS and the hatred and sowed death and destruction to millions in the Middle East, Africa and Asia.

Now we demand that there will be real change with the new government of SYRIZA.

We want citizenship for children born and growing up in the country and legalization of immigrants living undocumented for years.

Equal political and religious rights for all. Voting rights for immigrants.

Close now the concentration camps and tear down the fence in Evros.

Asylum and shelter to refugees, access to schools and hospitals.

Imprison for good the neo-Nazi murderers of the Golden Dawn.
