FREEDOM TO THE 12 MIGRANTS
arrested outside of ASOEE

Since 2009 in ASOOE the migrant peddlers have been claiming a minimum space where they can live and work with dignity.
From the very beginning, they have had to face beatings, arrests, tear gas, intrusions of their homes and the theft of their money, their papers and their commodities by the cops.
A part of this everyday war was the dramatically orchestrated pre-electoral operation by the repressive forces on the 08/04 where, following a coordinated attack, 12 migrants and 1 student were beaten and arrested.
Such repressive operations constitute the crystallization of a state-organized and socially widespread racism. They are carried out on the backs of all those that denounce the ‘illegal trading’ in the name of national economy, those that demand a clean Athens, those that obsessively cry out for security, thus paving the way for concentration camps, racist laws, pogroms, and state-sanctioned as well as unsanctioned killings of migrants on the borders and the city centers.
In spite of all these, the migrants are still there on the sidewalk in front of the ASOEE gate. They refuse to play a passive role in the attack against them, they organize, they respond vigorously and since 2011 they have created a struggle community along with those who stand in solidarity with them.
While the various mayoral candidates and deans, the cops and the rest of their lackeys may think that the electoral period is an opportunity to implement the expectations of the national backbone, they should know that the struggles of the migrants and those that stand in solidarity with them for dignity and life will continue to evolve and to make their worst nightmares a reality.
We stand together with the migrants. Deport every racist. Get your hands off the migrant peddlers at ASOEE.
