DRINK TO THE DEATH OF DICTATORS
28 June marks four years since the establishment of Solidarity Collectives, an activist network from Ukraine that supports anti-authoritarians who joined the Ukrainian resistance movement and people affected by the russian invasion.
On behalf of ABC-Belarus, we would like to invite everyone to join the celebrations for our comrades!
Four years of organising and resisting under shelling. Four years of conducting info talks and receiving sceptical or derogatory reactions and event cancellations. Four years of mourning comrades killed by the russian regime. Four years of pain and times of despair.
Four years of celebrating life amid the deadly reality of war.
Over these years, together with our supporters across the world, we have delivered hundreds of thousands of euros worth of equipment and aid: vehicles, drones, medical supplies, protective gear, radios, clothing and much more. We have carried out dozens of humanitarian missions to the frontline and war-affected regions and built our own drone workshop.
None of this would have been possible without international solidarity. We know for sure that dictators will fall, as they always have historically. We are proud to be part of the resistance that will bring their fall and to have you by our side. It means a lot, really.
So, we would like to invite you to celebrate this day with us!
How to join the birthday celebrations?
During the week around June 28, you can organise an event to raise awareness and donations for Solidarity Collectives.
It can be:
An info-talk, a screening, a discussion on anti-authoritarian resistance in Ukraine;
A cocktail party or invite friends for a dinner or picnic with an entrance fee;
Activities such as tarot reading, tattooing, an art sale, or a table tennis or chess tournament with participation fees;
Or ask a friendly bar, social centre, or activist space to donate a portion of their proceeds on this day to us.
Be creative!
We don’t want this to feel like a huge plan or burden. Just have fun and collect whatever benefit funds you can. €50 from each of 20 little events adds up to €1000 for us.
And please — post about your plans or make celebration reports, tagging us. This way, we will really feel connected and visible.
Send us a birthday gift via PayPal: [email protected].
Or find other donation options at solidaritycollectives.org.
Let life prevail!
