We offer a translation of a second statement by Serge’s comrades, released March 29.

"While our comrade Serge continues fighting for the life that the state attempted to take away from him, we are witnessing a new outpouring of violence against him. The media are attempting to depict him as a man who should be killed…

"The bourgeois media continue endlessly parroting words carefully chosen by the state in order to construct, out of thin air, the enemy that it wants to fight. Their false front will crumble in the face of the many narratives that have corrected and and rewritten the course of events. The police used grenades with the specific purpose of inflicting physical and mental harm upon the protesters; they are responsible for preventing emergency responders from evacuating the injured, even if that meant leaving our comrades to die…"

Drone footage shows that Brent Scarborough Company has begun clearcutting the Weelaunee forest in Atlanta, Georgia. The city government has overseen the murder of Tortuguita, the charging of dozens of activists with terrorism for as little as occupying a tree or attending a music festival, and now they are hurrying to destroy the forest before a public reckoning takes place.

As species go extinct by the thousand, as hurricanes and forest fires and other disasters exacerbated by climate change tear through your community, when you find yourself living in a concrete wasteland, remember—none of this was inevitable. These tragedies are the direct consequence of the decisions of self-seeking politicians, corporate profiteers, and armed mercenaries—specific individuals who have names and addresses. They are making the earth uninhabitable in pursuit of personal gain, imposing the consequences on the rest of us.

We owe it to the future of all living things to stop them.

This aerial footage shows the beauty and majesty of the Weelaunee Forest in Atlanta, Georgia and the destruction that Brent Scarborough Company is inflicting upon it at the behest of the same politicians who sent the police to murder Tortuguita and charge the other activists defending the forest with "terrorism." Rather than addressing the ecological or economic crises that threaten our communities, they aim to suppress all protest by means of brute force.

Brent Scarborough Company is working for Brasfield and Gorrie, insured by Scottsdale Insurance Company. This butchery is funded by an array of corporate donors whose names can be found online.

We Francji wybuchł potężny ruch w odpowiedzi na próbę podniesienia wieku emerytalnego. Podczas gdy miliony strajkowały i wylały się na ulice, prezydent Emmanuel Macron i jego poplecznicy próbowali ten ruch zdławić, eskalując policyjną przemoc do śmiertelnych ekstremów. W poniższym raporcie oferujemy chronologię wydarzeń z ostatniego tygodnia, w tym tłumaczenie relacji jednego z uczestników ruchu i oświadczenie rodziców innego, który nadal leży w śpiączce.

Police have inflicted grievous injuries on hundreds of demonstrators in the course of this movement. In this footage from Paris today, activists demonstrate one means of restricting the activities of police officers in order to limit the harm they can cause.
