immigrants | Under_Stand! ★ συνέλευση στα πέριξ της πλατείας Αμερικής

On Friday 19/4 we organised an unannounced intervention outside the Detention Centre of Petrou Ralli (Athens). Approximately 50 comrades were gathered outside the building supporting the campaign to highlight Petrou Ralli not merely as a detention centre but rather as a central decision -making entity regarding the repression of migrants. We shouted chants for the closure of all prisons and the releasing of the detainees and received a vivid response on behalf of the detained migrants, who shouted back demanding (their) freedom. Speaking with them via a megaphone, they told us all about the living conditions inside Petrou Ralli as well as for the deportations that have taken place recently. Finally, we covered the walls with slogans and distributed informative texts to the passing cars and buses. After the intervention we filled the nearby streets with posters.

At 20 and 21 of December 2018, the cops made an operation in Athens and Thessaloniki to repress the immigrants street traders, who try to survive selling their stuff outside the university of ASOEE and inside the university campus of APTh. In total, 36 people got arrested and persecuted, and also the cops stole all their stuff from their houses.

At 22/1/2019 we wrote slogans in solidarity with the street traders, in walls of Patision street and around Ameriki’s square. We also call for supporting of the solidarity demo that will take place at Friday 25/1, and is called at 6pm at Victoria’s square by the Self-organized Squat of ASOEE, the Anti-authoritarian Squat of Panteion, the Self-organized Squat of Polytechnic, and by solidarians.
