Zelte auf dem SCC stellen sich vor!
Heute: Anti-Imperialistische Zelte!

Das diesjährige antiimperialistische Zelt wird von drei Gruppen organisiert: Resistance Connections UA, Debt for Climate und einer Palästina Solidarität Gruppe.

Obwohl wir unterschiedlichen Fokus haben, stehen wir alle solidarisch hinter den Kämpfen für Selbstbestimmung auf der ganzen Welt: in Kurdistan, Palästina, Armenien, der Ukraine, im Sudan, in der Demokratischen Republik Kongo und anderen Ländern. Wir verstehen das Zelt als einen Raum des kollektiven(Ver-)Lernens. Wir halten es für wichtig Widersprüche und Kontroversen auszuhalten. Während wir Empathie und kein Verurteilen als Ansatz haben, rechtfertigen wir damit weder Standpunkte noch Handlungen von Menschen. Wir stellen uns klar gegen alle Formen der Unterdrückung und gehen proaktiv gegen sie vor.

Als Palästina-Solidaritätsgruppe verstehen wir uns als Genoss*innen im Kampf für die Befreiung Palästinas und sehen Solidarität als Teil eines umfassenderen antiimperialistischen und antikolonialistischen Weltverständnisses. Da Menschen aus der deutschen Klimagerechtigkeitsbewegung in einem Land sozialisiert wurden, in dem zionistische Perspektiven dominieren, wollen wir uns kritisch mit der Sprachlosigkeit vieler in der deutschen Linken zu diesem Thema auseinandersetzen und haben externe Gruppen eingeladen, ihr Wissen über den palästinensischen struggle zu teilen.

Resistance Connections UA ist eine überwiegend in Berlin ansässige Aktivist*innengruppe, die sich für politische und materielle Solidarität mit antiautoritären und dekolonialen Kämpfen in der Ukraine und darüber hinaus einsetzt. Wir arbeiten daran, den russischen Imperialismus als gewalttätiges und andauerndes Projekt zu entlarven und gleichzeitig die Verflachung von Befreiungsbewegungen zu geopolitischen Binärcodes zu hinterfragen. Als Mitorganisatoren des antiimperialistischen Zeltes wollen wir Raum für pluralistische, situative Solidaritäten schaffen, die sich dem Imperium in seinen vielfältigen Formen entgegenstellen – indem wir den Widerstand an der Basis unterstützen und Verbindungen zwischen feministischen, indigenen und antikolonialen Bewegungen aufbauen.

Debt for Climate ist eine globale Basisbewegung von Bewegungen, die vom Globalen Süden aus einer antikolonialen Perspektive initiiert wurde. Wir bauen Macht von unten auf, indem wir Arbeiterinnen, indigene und lokale Gemeinschaften, Feministinnen und religiöse, ökologische, soziale und klimarechtliche Bewegungen sowohl im Globalen Norden als auch im Globalen Süden vereinen. Unser Ziel ist es, die illegitimen Finanzschulden des Globalen Südens zu erlassen, um Ausbeutung und Rohstoffabbau zu beenden und selbstbestimmte, gerechte Übergänge zu ermöglichen.

[ID:] At the top it says in large letters “Create the SCC 2025!” At the top right is the logo (two flags on a tent waving to the left, next to it is “System Change Camp”. Below it are 4 colorful wooden signs on a meadow. One says “AG External Groups”, the next “AG Food” and there are small pictures of food and drink scribbled over it.

@benroyce @SUp3rN0va @jhy001 China's governance is building socialism with Chinese characteristics. It has a communist party over 100 million comrades strong. That party has presided over a massive improvement in the standard of living in their country; indeed at the expense of reform and opening up to capitalism, but with the party retaining political control.

They are trying to wrangle capitalism in a way that hasn't been done before, and may not succeed. It's certainly possible that the capitalist bourgeoisie could take over. But it's hardly a guarantee either.

Ultimately, when you describe "capitalist" China, capitalists around the world get mighty antsy. They would much rather a "capitalist" China that looks a lot more like the capitalist United States. That alone should be reason enough to hold off on declaring China a lost cause.

#Canada's highest court is set to hear arguments on Tuesday on when a young person can be considered an adult for sentencing purposes.
The result may reshape how Canada sentences #youth and could, a lawyer told #Reuters, set an example for other western countries to follow.

CTVNews · Canadian court to consider when minors can be sentenced as adultsCanada's highest court is set to hear arguments on Tuesday on when a young person can be considered an adult for sentencing purposes.

Back in 2018, Beaver Lake Cree filed for an #AdvancedCostOrder - #ACO - to secure funds from #Alberta and #Canada in order to continue accessing #justice for their #TreatyRights case, a case which will protect their people and territory from further expansion of the Alberta #TarSands and other #ResourceExtraction industries if successful. But, the cost of litigation for a case this momentous was more than the #FirstNation could front. That’s where the ACO comes in.

After six years, and reaching the #SupremeCourt of Canada ( #SCC ) — #BeaverLakeCree Nation will now receive $1.5 million annually from Alberta to continue their Treaty rights case!

The decision for a yearly contribution is a welcome relief, allowing the Beaver Lake #Cree Nation to move their case forwards while managing costs across their community needs.

RAVEN · Beaver Lake Cree Nation Comprehensive Treaty Claim Updates! - RAVENWe are coming to you today with a variety of important and exciting legal case updates for Beaver Lake Cree Nation, Treaty No. 6. As you likely read in our email to you this week, the Beaver Lake Cree Nation has received a decision from the Alberta Court of the King’s Bench regarding their Advanced…

In 1993, the Supreme Court of #Canada recorded and nationally televised a hearing for the first time. The Court has come a long way in 30 years. We now webcast live hearings and archive them on our website, except when there is a publication ban. 📺➡️💻

It looks like #Twitter 's new shift to login requirements for viewing accounts and tweets also blows up #Nitter and its #RSS functions.

This kills any view I have of Twitter. No big deal there.

More importantly to me, if kept in place, this move will effectively kill @scc_bot , which sought to replicate the Supreme Court of Canada #SCC 🇨🇦 Twitter feed on Mastodon.

My condolences to those who use that tool. It was fun while it lasted.
