le 21 janvier, une soirée pour refuser de payer leur crise !
On Saturday January 21 in Bordeaux, several trade unions, political organizations, student, feminist or neighborhood associations and for the defense of human rights, are mobilizing around a large concert of solidarity. The goal? While young people, employees, unemployed or retired, are already paying dearly for the increase in the cost of living – our incomes are not increasing – we are now faced with another problem: the government wants us to work ever longer.
Because we have suffered enough from the economic crisis and are convinced that organizing the response against the anti-social measures of the Macron government is necessary, we want to make this evening a moment of collective exchange. But above all, a deadline to raise funds to help finance the fight and the strikes against the pension reform. Indeed, the battle against this reform which will first affect the most precarious, and which the government has matured for several years, is an opportunity to unite in the world of work all those who refuse the future of misery which is promised to us . While inflation affects thousands of families, the general increase in wages, pensions and social minima, but above all their indexation to inflation, are central demands to be articulated. Money will be the sinews of war if we want to build a sufficient balance of power and build the prospect of a renewable strike.
Because the world of work is the first concerned by precariousness, the trade unions will help to collect food throughout the evening which will be redistributed on campus for students facing precarious situations.
This event must be a moment to seize to find each other, build trust and connect to build the battle, define different sectors and demand a plan that lays the foundations for a hard and long-lasting strike. It is in this sense that we would like to come to the evening of January 21, from 6 p.m. at the municipal hall of Son Tay, in the Gare Saint-Jean district.
On display
Many artists responded present to animate the evening. Rapper within Première Ligne, founder of La K-Bine and neighborhood activist, the artist Skalpel will be present, but also Gat, Sticky and Greyship, three artists from the Bordeaux label Zero Degree. man-machine will also offer us a unique musical experience accompanied by its drums and electroacoustic tones. Sera also presents the Bordeaux artist passionate about Japanese culture Kagome with soul, RnB, Blues and Hip hop influences. And it’s the DJ answering to the nickname of simsim who opens the evening, drawing his inspiration in particular from the history and the LGBTQIA+ community of which he is a part, mixing his conviction that music and club culture have always been political and creator of space allowing the emancipation of people put in margin of society.
In addition to the musicians, the evening will begin with a Drag Show, which will be hosted by several artists. Alma del Prince, first, feminist Drag Queen who presents her burlesque universe. As well as The Maryposaperformeur.se drag, one of the pioneers of the new Bordeaux drag scene, that we had the opportunity to interview as he endured a wave of far-right harassment.
