Brazil, Gaucha Anarchist Federation - CHRONIC and VIDEO MAY 1 of FAG (pt)

The International Day of Workers and Workers, marked every year by an Anarchist Act of 
memory and reaffirmation of his character battling, already constituted as a tradition of 
our organization and of Anarchism in general. In our 19th Political Act Cultural 1st of 
May we share with our fellow workers from different places, different ages and places of 
militancy, a few times when we do memory about the date, talk about the origins of our 
union design, socializing elements of analysis the current situation and mingle with some 
of Latin music toasted by militant comrades of La Digna Rabia. ---- Nearly a hundred 
people competed in the cold afternoon of the first day that the Act was conducted within 
the Culture Club, the place where our organization will keep running the Library "Conquest 
of Bread" and the activities of discussions, chats, view videos and group studies the 
Athenaeum Libertarian, all open to the public.

The Act began with a welcome to the participants and the video display May Our May that 
didactically and through animation drawing so well redeemed the story of origins date, his 
character and the fact that it not be owned by one or the other ideology (whether 
anarchist or Marxist ideology), but of all oppressed classes. The 1st of May is the 
Working Class! Then we did a reading material prepared by our organization in memory of 
the 200th anniversary of the Russian anarchist Mikhail Bakunin, we talk about the strategy 
the same bet for the labor movement, with union design elements that we believe the fair 
days Today, we rescued a brief genealogy of the General Strike and reaffirm what we 
believe in Socialism: An Socialism with Freedom! But the Act was also time to talk about 
today, the environment we live as anarchist militants, the context of repression and 
criminalization and the problems created by the Mega Events calendar as the World Cup for 
the low. Important moment shared political definitions and point priorities within the 
framework of a more turbulent period, with more fighting and that puts on the agenda the 
need to strengthen the organization of spaces down a combative perspective and independent 
fortune of governments to shift and bourgeois electoral agenda.
Finally, some members took the floor to speak from their contexts of struggle, as a 
resident of Sarai Occupation, in Porto Alegre, who suffers from threat of eviction from 
several families and fellow workers of Posts that have made a salute to the Act and 
ongoing struggles in its category and city. La Digna Rabia beyond that animated every 
moment with cumbia, Latin rock and ska combative.
This was an important act for our membership, because besides the fraternal and warm 
climate, enabled reafirm?ssemos ideological and political convictions that guide the daily 
lives of our membership as anarchists we are shoulder to shoulder with the sectors of the 
oppressed classes who belong . For all / as we were present at that time, our anarchist 
greetings and our invitation to continue in the struggle to forge a path of Socialism and 
Liberty!
Long live the martyrs of Chicago!
Long live May 1st of Oppressed Classes!
Viva anarchy!
