3 people arrested after the L’H demonstration

Three people were arrested this morning at 4am in Hospitalet del Llobregat after the demonstration organised the day before in the same town. A solidarity gathering was organised at 9am in front of the Mossos d’Esquadra police station.

Update: first only two arrests were reported, now the number is three. The last one being a person who wasn’t even at the protest. All of them are still being held and will appear in court tomorrow morning, when two solidarity gatherings have been organised, one in front of the police station at 9am and another one in front of the town’s courthouse at 9:30am. Two of the detainees have reported tortures and a medical revision was denied. All of them from the CSO L’Astilla squat.

Update: The three comrades have been released with charges on public disorder.

Demonstration in L’Hospitalet de Llobregat (Barcelona): We’re taking back our dignity

We are fed up, fed up of the failure and the alienation of your education system, of dying in hospital queues, of banks always winning, of becoming homeless, of estate agents and city councils taking control of our neighbourhoods, of the torture happening inside your jails, of your state terrorism, of the deportation of our neighbours just for being from outside and poor, of living in order to work and working in order to live, of your mercenaries in uniform, of the acceptation of self-declared fascists inside your democratic system, proving all this is all a covered dictatorship.

That’s why we are TAKING BACK our hospitals and schools, our spaces, our houses, the solidarity, mutual aid, cooperativism, direct action, oru streets.

Let’s take back freedom, let’s take back the dignity

Rage assembly of L’H.

Demonstration to remember Roger Albert, killed by neonazis in Barcelona in 2004

On August 15, 2004 our friend and comrade Roger was stabbed in the neck while he was defending his neighbourhood from a group of neonazis who had freely gone that afternoon around the neighbourhood assaulting many neighbours. Four months later, Roger died after waking up from a coma and fighting like a lion for his life. From him we keep his strength, his creativity, and of course, his determination.

THE REST IS JUST ANGER, ANGER, ANGER!

Demonstration – Wednesday 15th of August at 19:00 in Metro Fontana
