9.11 in Berlin

Yesterday I was on the Action Day Against Racism, Neo-nazism and War, a.k.a. Day of Remembrance, Reminder and Meeting. The background: On Sept. 9, 60 years ago survivors of the German Concentration Camps and jails met the first time to remember the victims of the fascist barbarous terror system. Later in now called Day of Remembrance for the Victims of Fascism was degenerated to a kind of official organized ritual in the GDR, East Germany. In the West it was not held. After the re-unification of Germany it became a yearly event every second Sunday in September for anti-fascists, progressive people, but also for all kinds of so-called socialists and communists. Aeh... I mean they call themselves like that... Since at least 10 years the last-named groups and organizations, even they are very small and have totally influence are dominating this event. Finally yesterday you could find insane stuff like that: praises for Kim Il-sung and K. Jong-il, Castro, Chavez, Stalin about Trotskyism, Trotsky about Stalin, Lenin and Stalin about... bla, bla... Just insane!!! According to the organizers yesterday about 200 different groups participated, but I counted just around 60. But I think I made some good, crazy video recordings...

Chile, 1973.9.11

I think it is important to remember this date! On that day the Chilene bourgeoisie and middle class, backed and active supported by the CIA, toppled the socialist, or better the left social-democratic Allende government.

Complete strange this people here... When I was visiting (harr, harr...) Germany the last time, in the beginning of 2002, nearly no one had a “haendepon” (h.p.). But now nearly everyone has one – but they don’t use it. For example in the subway many people, especially the young, are pulling out their h.p., but no one get a call, nobody is calling. They’re just showing that they have one h.p. Or like today in front of my house one youngster he was using it just as music player...

Germany: Bad Chances for Young Migrants According to a daily here (Junge Welt, 9.7) about 40 per cent of the young migrants after the finished this year the school don’t get a apprenticeship (professional training/education – you need here to get a “well” paid job in the industry or service). “Especially in Berlin the situation is very dramatic”, so the German daily. Already several years ago in the district where I was living – ha, now I’m forced to live here again - (more then 50 per cent of the population are migrants, in some areas many more) about 70 per cent don’t got a professional training. One of the reasons: even the most of them were born here, but they don’t know the German language, not really. Usually when they were/are little children their grandparents took/take care of them. So, when they come in the school they don’t know German. In some schools are about 90 per cent migrant children... so the teachers have no chances... The main reason of this situation: the migrants were forced to find flats just in some few areas, because there the rent was/is very cheap. And so they were forced to create kinds of ghettos...
