Le immagini degli scontri e della violenza dell'azione di contrasto della polizia sono sui nostri schermi tv da ieri. Ecco qualche link interessante per seguire un po' più da vicino quello che sta succedendo in alcuni dei templi dell'elaborazione culturale del mondo. Un po' di rassegna stampa... (e sia detto per inciso, il Los Angeles Times di oggi sabato 6 marzo non apre con la protesta in home ma... con un mega-articolo sul labirinto di intrighi che sarebbe l'Italia ai loro occhi!). Articolo dal New York Times Articolo dal Los Angeles Times e due link molto interessanti, dall'interno del movimento: Report dal sito CampusActivism.org Blog del movimento Defend CA Public Education : qui trovate anche la mappa completa della protesta e tutto il materiale di approfondimento Questo il comunicato degli organizzatori dello strike: California has recently seen a massive movement erupt in defense of public education — but layoffs, fee hikes, cuts, and the re-segregation of public education are attacks taking place throughout the country. A nationwide resistance movement is needed. We call on all students, workers, teachers, parents, and their organizations and communities across the country to massively mobilize for a Strike and Day of Action in Defense of Public Education on March 4, 2010. Education cuts are attacks against all of us, particularly in working-class communities and communities of color. The politicians and administrators say there is no money for education and social services. They say that “there is no alternative” to the cuts. But if there’s money for wars, bank bailouts, and prisons, why is there no money for public education? We can beat back the cuts if we unite students, workers, and teachers across all sectors of public education — Pre K-12, adult education, community colleges, and state-funded universities. We appeal to the leaders of the trade union movement to support and organize strikes and/or mass actions on March 4. The weight of workers and students united in strikes and mobilizations would shift the balance of forces entirely against the current agenda of cuts and make victory possible. Building a powerful movement to defend public education will, in turn, advance the struggle in defense of all public-sector workers and services and will be an inspiration to all those fighting against the wars, for immigrants rights, in defense of jobs, for single-payer health care, and other progressive causes. Why March 4? On October 24, 2009 more than 800 students, workers, and teachers converged at UC Berkeley at the Mobilizing Conference to Save Public Education. This massive meeting brought together representatives from over 100 different schools, unions, and organizations from all across California and from all sectors of public education. After hours of open collective discussion, the participants voted democratically, as their main decision, to call for a Strike and Day of Action on March 4, 2010. All schools, unions and organizations are free to choose their specific demands and tactics — such as strikes, rallies, walkouts, occupations, sit-ins, teach-ins, etc. — as well as the duration of such actions. Let’s make March 4 an historic turning point in the struggle against the cuts, layoffs, fee hikes, and the re-segregation of public education. - The California Coordinating Committee More images...
