The revolt was beaten down within a few days, but they kept working until 1938, when we were linked to Germany.
The father, Wasilij, was still young. And he kept saying that, because of the National Socialism: “That will be no good.” but we mustn’t repeat what he said. Afterwards, the authority was taken over by the Nazis, they locked up a number of people of the Slovenian minority and priests and such, straight away. There we saw that it would not be the way it had been promised before. It was just a time without work and without bread. And that helped the national socialists a lot to come into power. Bread and work - that was everything. And many let themselves be led by the propaganda and even believed that everything would be okay again. And that the people would live and live well – under Adolf Hitler. But when the first Slovenians were locked up, we already knew my father was right. And this is how it kept going on. The people lost their belief in Adolf Hitler and the resistance formed against fascism and Hitlerism. The first deserters from the ‘Wehrmacht’ had already escaped to Yugoslavia in 1939. And after the occupation of Yugoslavia they were arrested there or they had gone into hiding under a false name; as my colleague Karl Potoschki did. He was working under false name at a hotel in Bosnia. And already on the 20th October 1939, he was shot together with 20.000 ‘chosen ones’ and finished off. The ones that came back after the occupation of Yugoslavia were mostly locked up, respectively were the cadres of the liberation front of the Slovenes of Carinthia. Some joined the partisans straight away; others later on, but the beginning had been made. And from day to day the resistance grew stronger. And today, when you realise how courageous the people were – then again it involved the ‘head’ and the people didn’t have a clue. And the poor people, respectively the plain people, were the ones that helped the rebellion. And as well, without the help of the rural population, resistance would have been impossible. Only because of the help of the rural population it was possible that the number of partisans became bigger each day. And the hope that one day things would change.

In Casanare, a region in the southeast of Bogotá, oil was discovered in the 90'. Paramilitary troops and regulary armed forces have since then killed 2600 people, to secure BP the access to the oil in place.
The people try to resist their replacement and demand justice and compensation - whithout any success so far. |

Through militant strikes over the last four years, the mostly migrant workforce in the logistics sector in Italy have managed to substantially improve their working conditions. Treated with violent arrogance and regularly defrauded out of a part of their salary in the past, they've now won 'normal' working conditions in most workplaces.
Because of these achievements, more and more workers are ... more |

Greek hospital under workers' control
|
| |
"The occupation of our hospital in Kilkis by its workers started on Monday, February 20th, 8:30 local time.
This occupation is not only about us, the physicians and the workers at the Kilkis Hospital. Neither is it only about the Greek National Health System, which is collapsing, indeed. We are in this fight because what is in real danger now is the human rights and our lives."

This morning Pieter, Xeni and I (pictured above) set out with Miles, along with father/son superteam Joe and Bryan Moross. The plan was to drop off a few Geiger counters with volunteers and try to cover some new ground, perhaps near the exclusion zone. But it ended up being so much more.

On 1st of February 2011 – while riots rocked the Kasbah and downtown Cairo – around 150,000 young people arrived in Bareilly, near Shahajanpur in Uttar Pradesh, India. They came in order to apply for 416 vacancies at the Indo-Tibetan Border Police (ITBP). Facing the enormous mass of applicants the local administration called off the hiring procedure. The angry youth started smashing the place up, burnt cars, government and media buildings.
