Socialist Solidarity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Socialist Solidarity (Czech: Socialistická Solidarita) is a Trotskyist organisation in the Czech Republic. It is part of the International Socialist Tendency.
It seems to have developed from a circle around a punk rock band which developed links with the Socialist Workers' Party (Britain).
In the end of 90s it was active mainly in antiracist work, campaining against neofascist "Republican Party". The group has been also deeply involved in INPEG, umbrella group preparing the protests to IMF and World Bank in Prague 2000. This anticapitalist protest was very sucessfull, forcing bankers leave Prague one day earlier. It was also in the centre of the protests against the war in Iraq. Socialist Solidarity is now campaing mainly against planned U.S. military rocket-radar base in Brdy, Czech Republic.
The group publishes a magazine called Solidarita, now issued monthly.
