We are so inspired to be part of this new movement of people, struggling on behalf of the 99% against a system that allows corporations to run the world. We are thrilled about the wide use of direct democracy and popular assemblies, the participation of unions and community groups, and the honest efforts to include the voices of the most oppressed. We consider these the basic building blocks of a healthy society based on freedom and equality – which is what we're fighting for.

As anarchists in the struggle for this future society we have participated in occupations, directly democratic assemblies, mass movements of the oppressed, un-permitted marches, and other direct actions. Today, we in Common Struggle are involved in these again within the Occupy movement across the United States. Looking back at our history as anarchists, and analyzing this emerging movement as we participate, we see a few road blocks down the path that we hope we all can avoid.

Attention allies in North America and beyond! The organization formerly known as the North Eastern Federation of Anarchist Communists is henceforth:

Common Struggle - Libertarian Communist Federation

Decided upon at our 23rd conference held in Boston, MA this past Labor Day weekend.

We have been considering a change since the departure and organizational growth experienced by our comrades in both Common Cause (Ontario) and Union Communiste Libertaire (Quebec).

WHY ARE WE RALLYING?

Version francaise

The Common Struggle - Libertarian Communist Federation is an organization of revolutionaries coming from different movements of resistance who identify with the communist tradition within anarchism. The federation's activities are organized around theoretical development, anarchist propaganda, and intervention in the struggle of our class, be it autonomously or by direct involvement in social movements.
