Statement from the Permanent Secretariat of the CGT of Vallès Oriental regarding the events that took place at the Granollers Festival:

From this Permanent Secretariat we want to express our support and solidarity with the Colla dels Blaus in the face of the attacks they are receiving for holding a workshop “molotov cocktails”. An activity in a context of Festa Major and satire where freedom of expression should not be a problem.

a fair in which politicians of all kinds get on their knees before Mr. Marshall of precariousness and exploitation, based on the complaint of different “trade unions” police investigations are being opened by the Prosecutor's Office to identify minors… and being able to criticize is being questioned, to satirize the armed forces of the state (the police, army…etc).

Aquestes actuacions ens demostren que no val abaixar la guàrdia en la defensa dels drets i les llibertats.

Friday 22 of March of 2024 the colleagues of the Ter Defense Group (GDT) they visited Mollet and we welcomed them to our premises to share their struggle and make visible the state of the waters, of the air and the social injustices of the pig sector in Catalonia.

The GDT is historic for having quarreled, fa 35 years, against the Puigneró textile for the pollution of the river. A historic victory for environmentalism and to defend the health of people and the environment before justice.

With the motto: "There are pigs left over, there is a lack of farmers" in the talk it was made visible that the raising and fattening of pigs has become a sector of speculation by capitalism. What, like everything where it is installed, it leaves negative externalities on the territory while business profits grow by creating a political lobby to keep the scam going. Money for four international vulture funds and as waste in the territory: slurry, disappearance of small farms, contaminated sources, methane emissions, increase in road transport, animal discomfort, exporting virtual water and creating a bubble about to burst.

To enter data, pig fattening means a consumption of 11l/day per pig, daily in Catalonia they stay there 8 millions of pigs. Slaughterhouses must be added to the accounts, on s'hi mates 40.000 pigs per day also from Aragon. It is an industrialized sector, where the feed already includes preventive antibiotics, hence we find both nitrates and antibiotic residues present in bodies of water. This implies that groundwater is no longer potable and increases the risk of bacterial resistance for people's health.

The analyzes carried out in the sources prove it to us and the politicians look the other way in the face of pressure from the business sector to continue growing despite the prevailing drought in Catalonia. The only solutions proposed by the administration are technological ones that are not very efficient in practice. We do not want to deflate a bubble that keeps Osona's economy by a thread dependent on a single sector.

There are alternatives: stop exporting pigs and maintain the sector and water for Catalonia's food sovereignty, compel companies to use their profits to restore Catalonia's bodies of water, to promote ecological and traditional livestock farming that keeps the rural population in dignified working and living conditions and to extend the debate between our spaces.

Fewer pigs and more farmers!!

[LABOR PEDAGOGY: Conclusions of the Pedagogical Reflection Days of the Isarda Group]

The teachers, Catalan professors have been developing our professional activity for decades, understanding and taking the students at the center of the learning process.

Along these lines, we accompany them in the individual development of their skills, strictly respecting the corresponding pace of learning for each child and young person.

In our Pedagogical Reflection Days, we have appreciated that the enormous human and humanistic effort made by Catalan school workers to adapt the competence achievement process of our young people to their own characteristics, needs, emotions and learning rhythms does not have any kind of decent continuity in the Catalan company.

The company selects and segregates the young worker according to levels of competence and experience, throwing down the sink all the baggage and inclusive and comprehensive pedagogical effort implemented by the teaching staff.

At this point: or the school is wrong, and we already have our beloved politicians working hard to renew the curricula and adapt them to a selective and segregating model as demanded by the current company, or it is the company that urgently needs a profound reconversion to fit into the characteristics of Catalan society.

In a first analysis we have relied on infallibility, independence of judgment and independence from factual lobbies, of the Catalan political class when determining the appropriate studies and methodologies in the training of the Catalans of the future.

This being so, we have determined that it is the Catalan business community that errs in its approach, since it focuses on the reductionisms of the final product and profit.

It is very clear that a business model that focuses all its objectives on these precepts will never be able to go hand in hand with a school that is competent and sympathetic to people's needs. This employer model would be at odds with a competitive school, selective, meritocratic and segregating, with individualistic effort as the main value, to put each student "in his place", greatly facilitating an "orderly transition" from school to work. A "classist" arrangement, need.

Resuming the premise of the infallibility of the curricula ordered by our political class [in the next days of pedagogical analysis, the review of its suitability is planned: both of them, like others], the Isarda Group has concluded that the Catalan company should necessarily make the corresponding effort of empathy and corporate improvement to adapt to the characteristics and immanent needs of the young and adult population of Catalonia in the XXI Century.

In order to be in tune with today's Catalan society, business should urgently reinvent itself and innovate its outlook, rigidly anchored in the productivism of past centuries that have already been overcome. He should renew his focus and redirect it towards the worker (and worker) as a center of trunk interest. After all, it is the workers who make the work possible.

When leaving school (means institute, university) young Catalans are competently trained through decades of a complex and delicate learning process based on their interests, abilities and learning rates, these being particular and individualized.

Like this, it makes no sense for the company to escape the comprehensive course focused on the now former student by selecting him and emotionally draining him in procedures of well-publicized personal frustration.

It is the company that must take on the challenge of changing its outlook and creatively reinvent itself, adapting its production or services to the interests of each and every one of its workers. The same should be done with production processes, work rhythms, competence capabilities, uniforms, vacation…

That it is difficult to adapt to such diversity and that a company in one sector cannot start producing T-shirts at the same time, sweets, video games and jams so that this corresponds to the interests of their workers, trained in the creativity of learning to learn? And that he can't do the schedules and holidays that they want, paying them the salary they need? That every productive process needs good organization and cannot be based on a series of improvised events? That a single company cannot comprehensively attend to their individual needs 200 workers?

We are in the 21st century and we must adapt to its challenges.

Advanced companies must turn difficulties into upheavals and see them as opportunities and challenges to overcome day by day.

What better challenge than to make the country's production and services humbly available, interests, capacities and rhythms of Catalan citizenship.

That would be making a country!

Politicians you are soul crushing and burying the excellent teachers under tons of red tape;

Entrepreneurs who only do it for your own personal gain:

YOU GET THERE?

One more year the CGT opens its Summer Libertarian School, a space for meeting and discussion, of learning and recreation, in which we can all contribute our experiences and knowledge to enrich each other.

This year, between 29 June and 2 of July, we will meet Ruesta (Pre-Aragonese Pyrenees) under the motto: Public services, Transnationals, Unemployment and Precariousness.

In recent years, we are witnessing the acceleration of the attack of capitalist globalization that, through Transnationals, performs on public services susceptible to general benefits. The looting of the commons, causes exclusion, unemployment and precariousness, condemning the 90% from population to poverty.

Faced with this situation this year the Libertarian School of CGT, through four workshops, we are going to reflect and debate what the CGT responses have to be, alternatives and strategies to combat this problem.

With all the difficulties of the case, starting with the pressure that had already begun to exert forces established DISORDER, this granollerina youth had begun to walk and build other forms of struggle to change the system, playing one of those sacred precincts of Power: Private Property.

Beyond eviction today, and tissue was begun, ties will endure and seek new spaces, because the first space already conquered in that action, It was the space of mentalities, was the realization that the properties can be useless collective capitalists do and give a social utility. What apparently it was just an experiment, It may be a touch of reality, this reality of occupation of spaces, Private reuse disused buildings, with a social purpose, cultural and transformation.

Social Center Okupado Can L'Enkant is a germ, It is a start, because in the early collapse of this system, They not reach them all riot of the world to stop popular will, the desire for freedom, equality and social self.

20160724_105053After a week of activities under the Days for the 80th anniversary of the Social Revolution we do in the CGT Vallès Oriental, where not only we remember to honor women and men, with great courage and imagination, They dared to try to change radically the world, but it was also an incentive to continue the fight, recognizing and building on those experiences, and at the same time watching the absolute actuality of these protests, such complaints, Currently in libertarias experiences today, and that momentum to end capitalism and build a new world, truly inclusive, truly united and truly free.

As last activity, today Sunday 24 July we held Walking Libertarian collectivization of Mollet, a tour of factories and emblematic places that were collectivized by the working people of Mollet between 1936 Y 1939.

Libertario mate Juan Garcia began the story of historical memory in doors the Tannery (Modern Tannery Franco Spanish), where they had worked family members, mainly his own mother, during 50 years. The memory of the working people, the memory beaten so often try to silence us, He spoke for itself through our partner, telling what life was like in the tannery, and what it meant for us, workers, take into our hands the self-management of production and see the flight patterns. In this collectivization he had a central role the CNT, our union at that time, which carried forward decisively collectivization of industry and agriculture throughout Catalonia.

After Tenería, We climb down the street Berenguer III (Durruti called during the war) until Can Fàbregas, textile factory with other very different characteristics, also it was collectivized in 1936, where the change is less.

20160724_114036From there we move to the current school Lestonnac (Rambla Balmes, 15), the old one “convent school”, since in that building functioned the Central warehouse collectivized, where all foods of the region were managed for redistribution in times of Social Revolution. There's companion Eva, history teacher, We were also explained the workings of the PRICE (New Unified School Council) and comprehensive transformation of education during the revolutionary period.

We then move to the corner of Berenguer III and Av de Burgos, Can Mulà in the park, where the historian Jordi Viader explained his research on Central Lechera Mollet, Milk Industry Socialized, created specifically in those years at the initiative of the same CNT. It had operated the site where the dairy is far from this point (one of. Jaume I, 205), and did not make much sense to go there since today, with new buildings, there is no trace of it.

20160724_124136From there continue towards an emblematic point because other collectivized nucleated centers at that time, as the textile factory were Can Arderius, Can Serra (the flour) Y Can Meter (the sawmill). Is about the Tabarán, meeting place and fun of working people in Mollet, where the CNT carried out from rallies to dance, theater and all kinds of cultural events. A hundred meters there the other cultural and social center also was, he Athenaeum, where the political class was of those times. The 'stories about carpentry, Can the farinera and closed the tour collectivized Mulà.

The route of collectivization was a pleasant experience, where twenty attendees nourish us popular history, although many pretend to forget hacérnosla. Thanks to Comrade Joan, knowledgeable and memory of the working history of Mollet, who jointly he shared their knowledge with us and we.

Thanks to everyone who participated in these days you, from the organization, lending a hand in the activities, attending them, participating in different ways with your physical and supportive presence. A union we build among all of!

Health!

We will meet in our union CGT Vallès Oriental (c / Francesc Macia, 51, Mollet), to start the route from the site where it was located “the Tannery” (Modern Tannery Franco Spanish), c / Industry, 2 (to the side of the Mollet-Sant Fost station RENFE).

20160723_184438The poetry of the "Bio-Slow" moved our hearts and fists, positioned us, the ground shook but calm because we know where we step.

On Saturday afternoon he shouted at La Marineta, where more than twenty long people listen with their skin to the torrent of words like lashes that "Bio-Slow" they were tearing us. Unstoppable, we had to almost gag them to continue with the planned activity.

So the documentary «Project A», that we expected from silence and uncertainty, without knowing what we would find, but eager to know what that was about draft in which many of us are involved. There was an expectant silence, attentive to what was said, there was identification with the militant and combative attitude, both in the stories of Athens and in Germany; there was surprise at the appearance of our CGT confederation, but not from its more combative current aspect, but reduced to the historical memory of a glorious past as CNT; there was smile, silence and confusion, with the cooperative narrative about Catalonia and Germany.

And a lively debate was generated around these issues, because if we are looking for something precisely it is to open spaces and times of debate, so necessary to find us, strengthen our bonds of solidarity and transform everything from below.

ProjektA_Ananzeige14Logos.inddFollowing the Conference on the 80th anniversary of the Social Revolution, It is Saturday 23 of July to 18:00 h, at the Civic Center Marineta (Pl. Church, 7, Mollet del Vallès, a 100 mts of the Old Town Hall), we will have the presentation of the poetry group "Bio-Slow", who present themselves in this way:

THE BIO · SLOW (POETRY TO THE RESCUE) It is a current project that encompasses poets and performers on the Barcelona stage, repeatedly or occasionally, depending on the case. The main purpose is to bring poetry to the street, or present it where it was not expected (thus escape from a closed circle where poets attend acts of poets). We are interested, particularly, be on the barricades, instead of just in the comfortable rear guards of conventional recitals.

«Project A»

Later we will also exclusively pass the documentary «Project A», from Marcel Seehuber & Moritz Springer (2016).

Financial crises and waves of refugees, social inequality and ecological catastrophes, terrorism and wars ... Western civilization is like a bullet train speeding up against a wall. And to the control of the controls, governments that apparently are not capable of solving people's problems. Aren't they even part of the problem?Are there alternatives?

Project A is a documentary that contradicts the typical cliches about anarchism and makes one thing clear: Another world is possible. Be in the Exarchia district in Athens, with its anarchist influences; protest actions against nuclear energy in Germany; CGT, as the world's largest anarcho-syndicalist organization, in Spain; or the projects of the Catalan CIC cooperative or the Kartoffelkombinat group in Munich, also cooperatively organized.

These activists contribute their idea of ​​an independent existence of the State and its structures, based on equal rights and with the objective of a solidarity and community economy.

Project A brings to the table an alternative vision of the world and shows some anarchist ideas of life and joint action. A form of society in which no one should have the power to control knowledge, natural resources, the earth or other people.

laanarquiafunciona-721x1024Thursday we had the presentation of the book "Anarchy works", with the presence of Peter Gelderloos, author of the book and militant libertarian.

With the assistance of twenty people, Peter explained the basic lines of his book, with historical and current examples of social practices self-defined as anarchists and others, without proclaimed anarchists, in his practice of self-organization, self-management and autonomy, have many elements that link to the ideal and practical libertaria.

The discussion also check our need to promote self-organization and autonomy of social movements, from a perspective libertaria, the need to rebuild and strengthen solidarity ties that make us free people, and to oppose capitalist barbarity that day after day trying to destroy these ties.

Thanks to Peter and to the comrades who came to listen and participate in this interesting debate.

Anarchy-the-works-webFollowing the Conference on the 80th anniversary of the Social Revolution, It is Thursday 21 of July to 19:00 h, at the Civic Center Can Pantiquet, will present the book "The works Anarchy», with the presence of its author Peter Gelderloos. Here we reproduce a synthesis of the formulation of the book.

Examples of different times and places. Near 90. A third of them are directly experiences anarchists; the rest, “stateless”, “autonomous” The “antiauthoritarian”. More than half correspond to the current western society. Examples that make up the book of the author anarchist Peter Gelderloos, “The works anarchy”, published in 2008 in its English edition (what the reader should keep in mind when approaching the book and assess examples) and in 2014 in Spanish. A collection of experiences that demonstrate how a society is possible “alternative” based on mutual support, horizontal decision-making and self-organization.

The author raises questions over a text of almost 300 pages divided into sections (“Human nature”, “decisions”, “Economy”, “Environment”, “Crime”, “Revolution”…). The overall answer lies in the title of the book, an assertion: the works anarchy. One of the first questions (page 26) is “Are not selfish people by nature?”. The author responds with the US case. You can question of the “most selfish country of the world”. “But even in the United States It is easy to find examples of institutional cooperation that make up an important part of society“.

Capitalism has selfishness as one of its great philosophical foundations, in addition to the warrior status, competitive and patriarchal people. Nevertheless, a century that Kropotkin published “Mutual support”, which argues that in humans there is an inclination to solidarity and mutual help. This is, in fact, a core element for the evolution of societies, rather than competition. Even more, Solidarity is a non-exclusive tendency of people, because it can also be seen in many mammalian species, birds, fish and insects. Another widespread belief that fights Gelderloos is to consider the West as the pinnacle of progress and complexity. The author considers that incurs “eurocentrismo” who considers the hunter-gatherer, possibly knowledgeable about the use of a thousand different plants, as less “sophisticated” the operator of a nuclear power plant (possibly this, unlike the individual devoted to hunting and gathering, does not know the origin of the food you eat).

And all're all invited to come and participate!
Health!
