F.lotta is organizing a massive run towards and across the external border of fortress Europe, an occupation of the central Mediterranean sea. We want to repoliticize the space, where the state has successfully managed to discipline rescue associations into a tight operational framework and to normalize the presence of preventable deaths. We are a colorful multitude of independent boats, coming from different backgrounds: independent sailors, associations, sea workers and more, united into a spontaneous network.
We will sail from Lampedusa heading South, crossing that sea that has become a highway for weapons and goods and a graveyard for many people, as a consequence of the racist, capitalist and neo-colonial project of fortress Europe. We will stage the protest during 3 days at sea in September, to mark the 10th anniversary when people on the move started to march from Hungary towards Germany and forced open the internal borders of the fortress.
We are independent, grassroot, self-organized. If you have a boat, or could mobilize your network, or want to know more about F.lotta: please reach out on Signal at: @hedgehog.25
