A-Infos (en) Russia, Avtonom: Freedom March in Warsaw dedicated to the 5th anniversary of the Belarusian uprising (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

The demonstration will begin on August 9 at 15:00 and will go from 
Placing Pilsudskiego to Trzech Krzyzy. ---- "5 years after the events of 
August 9, 2020 are 5 years of constant reflection," writes the 
Belarusian group Pramen. "What did we do wrong? Were we not quick and 
decisive enough? Or maybe we were too tolerant of the regime? It is 
clear that we did what we had to - each of us went out on our own, 
boldly demonstrating initiative. There were so many of us that we were 
everywhere - that is why the creative flow of protest did not dry up for 
so long. We did not look for any one person responsible, and that is why 
there were points of resistance in all courtyards.

Now there is a risk of losing this experience. Those events are 
forgotten under the pressure of more current news, and politicians are 
trying to focus on their own role so that other protesters remain in the 
shadows. If we allow the experience of 2020 to be lost in the whirlpool 
of history, then next time we will have to repeat our mistakes through 
pain. Many are waiting for plans from politicians and rely on the mercy 
of the regime instead of preparing for a new uprising.

We will go on the march in Warsaw to remind us of the values of protest 
that started the modern wave of democratic movement. To remind us of 
determination, independence and responsibility. Join the anarchist bloc!"
