March to Berlin: Call for all refugees

The human being’s mission to achieve freedom is not to stand in line
but to disrupt the queue
You, all the asylum seekers that live under inhumane conditions in
Germany and see your lives and the lives of your children going
through a gradual death, you who like prisoners are kept in asylum
seekers’ camps, facing all the Apartheid discriminatory conditions
that treat you like second class citizens, you who expect your
deportation order to arrive at any moment, you who stand at the
lowermost layers of the society, carrying all the weight of the
unfair society on your shoulders, whilst the only thing you are
allowed to do is to obey the cruel and inhuman rule of limited
travelling range, NOW is the time to rise up against all this!
NOW is the time of our uprising because we do not want to passively
witness the death of one of us, since the inhumane treatment of the
asylum seekers in Germany can lead any human being to a gradual or a
sudden death. Now after 5 months since the start of the asylum
seekers’ protest in Germany, that began on 19th of March 2012 in
Würtzburg and inspired asylum seekers of other cities to rise up, the
movement strengthened by the resistance and perseverance of the
asylum seeker is going to aim for a much bigger step.

We will NOT respect the laws that do not respect us as human beings

The striking asylum seekers all over the Germany who have initiated a
strong and coordinated joint protest, have decided to launch a new
action on 8th of September: on this day asylum seekers will move
towards Berlin from 2 different routes and after gathering in this
city they will show to the German government that any action towards
implementation of the inhumane deportation law will be responded back
by the asylum seeker’s movement and will not remain unopposed. They
will shout louder than ever that they will continue their struggle
until the asylum seekers’ camps with their catastrophic conditions
are abolished. In fact by gathering in Berlin, the asylum seekers
will actively disobey the discriminatory law of limited travelling
range, which forces the asylum seekers to remain within a certain
area. This well coordinated action, which is solely organized by the
asylum seekers themselves and is independent of any political party
or group, will be a way to strongly voice the opposition against the
‘limited travelling range’ law.
As mentioned before, the march towards Berlin will start
simultaneously from 2 separate routes: one in which asylum seekers
will walk from Würzburg towards Berlin and the other where they will
use transportation means and will pass through west of Germany. The
two marches will arrive at the same time in Berlin and will join each
other. This action will first be launched by the asylum seekers from
two provinces of South Germany (Bayern and Baden-Württemberg), but
will not remain limited to only these two provinces. All asylum
seekers living in camps and places that are on the way to Berlin will
be visited and they will all be invited to join the protest.
We call all the asylum seekers who like us will no more bear the
inhuman conditions and have in different ways revolted against them,
to join us so that by uniting our forces we can bring the decades of
struggles for the asylum seekers’ rights to its long awaited goal.
In Berlin we will stand hand in hand and in solidarity and we will
once more announce our legitimate demands;

- we demand the abolishment of all the asylum seekers’ camps in Germany
- deportation is an inhumane law, a law that solely serves the
political and economic interests of those who are in power, this law
must be abolished
- we demand that the law of the limited free travelling of the asylum
seekers is abolished.
To all asylum seekers, refugees and immigrants in Germany:
we have all left our countries for different reasons, and we all came
to this country hoping for a better and safer life. Most of us have
come from thousands of kilometers away to this place, going through
all sorts of agony, danger and suffering to get here. We have
tolerated all the hardship hoping for a better life in future. It is
perhaps now the time to wear the same shoes we were wearing when we
crossed all the borders on the way to here, it is perhaps now the
time to travel for some more tens of Kilometers ahead, this time not
alone but all together towards creating a better world.
To the asylum seekers of southern provinces: on 8th of September we
will all gather in Würtzburg and will be looking forward to all and
each of you joining us.
The asylum seekers of other provinces who share our concerns: we will
do our best to come to your camps and to move together with you
towards Berlin.
