FAU Berlin — Die kämpferische Gewerkschaft

July dates

This July, the FAU Berlin hosts three special events: On July 3, we remember the 2009/10 labour struggle at Kino Babylon with a punk night at the Roter Salon (Volksbühne) – featuring live shows by Batterrrii and ZWANG, starting at 9 PM. On July 12, join us at 2 PM at Oranienburg Station for a memorial event for Erich Mühsam, anarchist writer and activist. And on July 25, US activist Dean Spade will speak at the FAU-Lokal at 7 PM about mutual aid and building solidarity in times of crisis. See you there!

No Masters, No Flakes: Lessons from social movement-building in the USA, for grassroots labour organising

In this discussion, we will explore lessons learned from Spade’s experience in social movement organising over the past two decades in the USA, and how they can be useful to worker organising here in Berlin.

Erich Mühsam: Remembering Means Fighting – Against Fascism, For Solidarity

Erich Mühsam, writer and anarcho-syndicalist, was one of the first victims of the Nazi regime. Arrested after the Reichstag fire in 1933, he was imprisoned, tortured, and murdered by the SS in the Oranienburg concentration camp on July 10, 1934. His death was staged as suicide.
