On January 20th, hundreds of thousands of people will be storming the streets across the US against Trump’s accelerated assault on migrants, LGBTQ people, women, unions, people of color, and the entire working class.

Now more than ever, we need massive resistance in the streets to shut down Trump’s agenda of racism, sexism, migrant-bashing, cutbacks and war. With capitalism in decline, this agenda can be a recipe for fascism.

While both the Democrats and the Republicans are telling us now to accept the results of the election and look to “work with” President Trump, we completely refuse to accept this racist billionaire as the leader of this country. Trump has no solutions for the real issues faced by billions of workers across the world.

Capitalism, imperialism and the racist cops occupying our communities are the real problem. We, the millions of people ready to take direct action against the attacks of a Trump administration, are the solution.  

Only mass action can push back this racist, sexist agenda. We are entering a new era of historic resistance, led by the struggles of Black Lives Matter and the water protectors at Standing Rock. We stand ready to put our bodies in front of deportation busses, bulldozers, tanks and other war machines. The working class and oppressed must join together in this historic moment with the full understanding that real power is in the streets, not in the White House and not the Pentagon.

Let’s show on January 20th that another world is possible. There is an alternative to racist terror, sexist oppression, homophobia, transphobia, migrant-bashing and bigotry. There is an alternative to capitalism and fascism.

On January 20th, let’s shut down DC with a historic mobilization of the people, united against Trump’s assault on the people.

Let’s fight for the revolution we really need. Now is our time to be in the streets.

We say NO to Trump, NO to Clinton, NO to capitalism, NO to war and NO to the two-party system that supports all of the above.  

On Friday, January 20th, we will make sure our collective voice is heard throughout the halls of power and across the world. Join us!

Artists Against Fascism – Support IWW General Defense Committee & Milwaukee

“The strategic adversary is fascism… the fascism in us all, in our heads and in our everyday behavior, the fascism that causes us to love power, to desire the very thing that dominates and exploits us.”

Michel Foucault

Anti-fascist musicians and spoken word artists will contribute this evening to raise money for Industrial Workers of the World General Defense Committee and Milwaukee Anti-fascist Action. The money will be used to to defend the working class against repression carried out by fascists. With the rise of the far white supremacist right, the entryist “alt-right”, and the election of mysogonist, racist Trump, we need to unify, stand together to protect what working class gains we have made and to press forward to gain more.

Artists playing are:

Contraptions
Jesse James
Eric Blowtorch and the Inflammables
Lady Cannon
Chimp Eats Banana

Doors open at 6:00, artists start around 7:00, merchandise will be sold to raise money as well. $5.00 minumum donation would be ideal, but no one will be turned away due to lack of funds.

Workers like us came back from the holiday this week to provide services to our communities, to do our jobs, and to keep our country up and running. Despite our service, Congress will vote to change the rules on Monday at 5 p.m. Eastern. They want to make it easier to eliminate our jobs and cut our pay.

We can’t wait for January to take action. We must act NOW. Please click here and take 5 minutes to write to your Representative and tell them: Stop this rule change.

The House will vote to bring back a rule from the 1980s that would allow them to reduce the number of federal employees. The “Holman Rule” will also allow Congress to reduce pay for government workers to offset other spending.

Bryan , we work too hard to be treated this way. Click here to write to your Representative and tell them: federal workers serve our communities every day. Oppose these rules, and keep us on the job!

In solidarity,
AFGE, https://www.afge.org/
