The Electronic Disturbance Theater
and the borderlands Hacklab call for
a virtual strike in solidarity with the May 1st General Strike /
Walkout / Boycott in the US and actions for Freedom of Movement taking
place all over Europe on May 1st, 2006.
Information control is a critical part of the control of people's
movement and the information dissemination engines such as CNN are used
to propagate racist propaganda from the mouths of Lou Dobbs, Tom
Tancredo and Sensenbrenner every day. Racists like the Minutemen, with
known ties to neo-Nazi groups, have become an everyday fixture in the US
media landscape. With this virtual strike, we will join the millions
marching in the US, Mexico and Europe in slowing down the economy by
slowing down the information systems.
On this day without an immigrant, we will also have a day without Lou
Dobbs, Semsenbrenner and the Minutemen in cyberspace. Join us in making
this a reality.
This virtual strike is also made in solidarity with La Otra Campana of
the Zapatistas, who are marching to the US consulate in Mexico City as
part of their campaign to overthrow the evil governments of the world by
building community power from below and from the left.
May 1st has been celebrated for more than a century as International
Workers Day, commemorating the struggle for the eight hour workday in the
US and the state murder of anarchist labor organizers in Chicago in
1887. The militant labor movement in Chicago was largely due to the
influence of radical immigrant workers from central Europe, who were the
most exploited of the working class. Today we reclaim May Day as a day
for migrant people everywhere.
Against HR4437 and for amnesty for all!
For a world free of deportations and detention centers!
For Freedom of Movement and the Right to Stay!
For a world free of borders!
For a world free of racist immigration controls!
For a world free of neo-liberalism and capitalism!
For a world where many worlds fit!
Join the Virtual Sit-In, May 1st, 2006 and help make the massive mayday
strike/walkout/boycott be felt throughout cyberspace.
