In solidarity with the Belarus anarchists, we are calling a demonstration at the Belarus Embassy Friday 31st March. Assemble 3pm High St Kensington Tube Station.

Anarchists in Belarus have sent us the following call for solidarity. We are calling a demonstration at the Belarus Embassy Friday 31st March. Assemble 3pm at High St Kensington tube. Bring banners and black ribbons.

International of Anarchist Federations/ Anarchist Federation

On March 31st we appeal to you to join the action of
solidarity with hundreds of Byelorussian political
prisoners. They were arrested during the protests
against the falsified elections. That day,31 March, is
the inauguration of the "first forever" president of
Belarus – Lukashenko. In protest of that we are
arranging a broad action, which has been named "Black
mark for Rygorych" (nickname of Lukashenko). The goal
of the action is the following: people throughout the
world will hang out black ribbons in different cities
during the day. The ribbons will be hung on the trees,
fences, in public transport, metro etc. These actions
will take place close to the Byelorussian embassies in
different countries.

That date we kindly call you to come to protest
against the political repression in Belarus and also
to cover an embassy of Belarus and its neighbourhood
with the black ribbons. We want your action to be
published in the press.

We need your solidarity now!
