7.10.2014, Tuesday At 18.00 SECESSION WHERE: Secession, Friedrichstraße 12, A-1010 Wien FREE ENTRANCE TALK! The refugee protest movement mobilization in Austria and EU. A forum organized by Marissa Lôbo and Marina Gržinic. Speakers: Khan Adalat Ilker Ataç Clifford A. Erinmwionghae Njideka Stephanie Iroh Ines Mahmoud Gin Müller

This forum will discuss how in the period after the Fall of the Berlin wall and 9/11 capitalist discourse has shifted from protection of human rights into a policy of bare life, seclusions and deportations of refugees and asylum seekers. The refugee movement in Vienna in 2012 showed a power of self-mobilization and self-articulation. The self-organized refugee protest movement, that was supported immediately by many activists and students from the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna, has been put under harsh pressure and criminalization procedures. After almost 2 years here it is again another possibility to speak in public providing an analysis what was done and what is to be done. Discussions will include the reproduction of white supremacy within the Refugee Protest Camp Vienna, the methods of criminalization of the refugees by the Austrian state repressive apparatuses and the hypocrisy of EU politics.
