Gathering in solidarity with the struggle of prisoners in Patras greece

On Sunday, December 12th, approximately 100 comrades gathered outside the prisons of Agios Stefanos (30 km outside Patras, in western Greece) in solidarity with those fighting behind the prison bars. A very high percentage of detainees throughout the country have gone on hunger strike or abstain from prison meals from 29 November to date. They demand the improvement of detention conditions. Read here for more details. Slogans were chanted, a banner that wrote “Passion for freedom is stronger that any prison” was hung, the prison walls were stenciled; there was music and two-way communication through speakers. A prisoner described on the phone the conditions they live in, and how those who fight are treated by prison guards. Prisoners waved and shouted back, burned sheets and hand-made flags.
No one fighting is alone! Solidarity to the struggle of prisoners!
tusday 14  has been called as a day of action and demos will take place across the country in solidarity.

POSTER SAYS:
did anyone speak of a
KIDNAPPING?
“…A handful of capitalists
have organized a criminal gang
and have kidnapped the proletarians,
demanding for ransom
their labor force,
merchandising their human activity,
their time (which is turned into money),
their own being itself…”

Anarchists solidarity protest outside Korydallos prison, the main prison in Athens, at the time of the change of the year. This protest happens every New Year's Eve for the past six years. This year more than 400 people took part in the protest that interacted with the prisoners inside through shouting mutual slogans and fireworks. The main slogan was "The passion for freedom is stronger that your prisons".

FIRE TO ALL PRISONS

A society that punishes/the condition of incarceration/the prison of the mind/the prison as punishment/the rage of the damned will sound on the ruins of prisons/those denying obedience and misery of our era even within its hellholes/will dance together on the ruins of every last prison/with the flame of rebellion avenging whatever creates prisons.

To the prisoners struggle already counting one dead and thousands in hunger strike across greece, we stand in solidarity and anger until the destruction of every last prison.


ARSON AND WILDFIRE FOR EVERY PRISON

SOLIDARITY TO ALL PRISONERS IN GREECE
