Özcan Yaman erzählt von GEZI

IMG_6376Özcan Yaman arbeitete vor seinem Einsatz rund um die GEZI-Park Proteste als Werbefotograf in der Türkei. In den letzten Jahren arbeitet er für Tageszeitungen und veröffentlicht unter anderem auf redfotograf.com (link) seine Videos und Fotografien. Am 16.06.2014 besuchte er Stuttgart, sprach auf der 225. Montagsdemonstration und stellte seine Arbeit an einem Informationsabend im Forum 3 vor. IMG_6353Je mehr Details er von seinen Erfahrungen und den Hintergründen um die Proteste in der Türkei erzählte, umso mehr Parallelen ergaben sich in den Details der beiden Bewegungen (und auch in den Strategien gegen die Bewegungen). Natürlich kann man einen Landesweiten Protest wie in der Türkei, nicht direkt 1 zu 1 mit einem Protest in einer Stadt wie Stuttgart und gegen ein Bauvorhaben vergleichen, aber durchaus relativiert betrachten. Es war jedenfalls ein interessanter Abend aus dem Hoffentlich ein direkterer Kontakt und Austausch entstehen wird.   

Her Yer Taksim, Her Yer Direniş – Oben Bleiben!

Almanyan`ın Stuttgart şehrinde 16.06.2014 tarihinde S21-eylemlerinin 225. Pazartesi-Protestosun’a konusmacı olarak katılan Yaman, ardından çalışmalarını Forum3’de tanıttı ve Gezi-eylemleri hakkında bilgilendirdi. Yaman tecrübe ve eylemlerin arka planı hakkında bilgilendirdikce, dinleyiciye iki direnişin arasındaki paralelleri (bu direnişe karşı olan stratejilerde de) sağladı. Elbette bütün Türkiye’yi kapsayan bir eylemle Stuttgart belediyesinin inşaat projesine karşı olan bir eylem birbiriyle kıyaslanamaz – fakat analizi mümkün. Ilginç bir akşamın sonunda ileri yönelik temas ve paylaşımların gerçekleşeceğini temenni ediyoruz.

Amnesty-Bericht zum Gezi-Park

GEZI PARK PROTESTS
Brutal denial of the right to peaceful assembly in Turkey

On 30 May 2013, police cleared Gezi Park in central Istanbul of a small group of protestors opposed to its destruction. The denial of their right to protest and the violence used by the police touched a nerve and a wave of anti-government demonstrations swept across Turkey.

The authorities’ reaction was brutal and unequivocal. Over the next few months, police repeatedly used unnecessary and abusive force, including tear gas, water cannons and beatings, to prevent and disperse peaceful demonstrations. By early July over 8,000 people had been injured. There is strong evidence linking the deaths of three protestors to the abusive use of force by police.

While little progress has been made in investigating and bringing police officers responsible for abuses to justice, thousands of demonstrators have been detained; hundreds risk prosecution simply for organising or attending the protests.

Journalists, doctors and lawyers who documented the events, supported the protestors or defended their rights have been arrested, beaten, threatened and harassed, as the government has sought to silence and smear those speaking out against it.

This report documents the human rights violations that have accompanied the crushing crackdown on the Gezi Park protest movement and calls on the Turkish authorities to respect the right to freedom of assembly, stop police abuses and end unfair prosecutions against peaceful protestors.

Local demonstrators and a number of parliamentary deputies partially blocked the demolition of the last green public space in the center of Istanbul, despite police forces again resorting to tear gas to disperse the group. The struggle eventually transformed into a night-long sit-in protest by the demonstrators. hurriyetdailynews

We know what you are feeling – 973 days before and still now we are fighting for trees here too! Our goals are the same – fighting for life against the cold senseless concrete world! They fight against nature an the people with violence and destruction too, only for more money and soulless cities without life and livable cities. we lost our fight in 2010 – we remember it as „Black Thursday“ and Years after we finally and sadly lost the most of the trees:

But we are still here! Thousands still here and on the streets every fucking week and many still remember the big old trees they killed without ANY sense! They only destroyed and killed trees but they only can hurt and destroy! See the last month of our previously beautiful park here in Stuttgart:

They call it construction area but it is still a town cemetery – a boneyard of big old trees!

IMG_9473Cheer up! – you are on the right side! Keep on streaming / posting pictures  showing their destructive way – their violence and your fight for nature! We have a eye on your fight and in the end your fight will be the better way! They will choke on their concrete! Keep your fire burning and don´t give up your fight until that justice is done!
