Counter-demonstration against Fascist rally - Federation Square, 15 May 2011

Submitted by peter on Mon, 16/05/2011 - 3:23pm

Against a background of a Buddhist festival promoting peace, harmony and enlightenment, the latest incarnation of Fascism in Australia, the so-called Australian Defence League, chose Melbourne's Federation Square to spread their message of intolerance, divisiveness and ignorance. But a counter-demonstration saw them first outnumbered, then drowned out, and finally forced to an ignominious retreat.

We occupied the square for several hours, displaying banners and flags, handing out many texts (below), and playing anarchist and anti-fascist music.

On the morning of the 14th of September, anti-fascists attacked the business of Justin O'Brien, known to be the Victorian representative of Blood & Honour, a worldwide neo-nazi organisation responsible for various race-hate crimes, including the racially motivated murder of a woman and her baby in Belgium.

O'Brien's tattoo shop, 'Hold Fast Tattoo' in Burwood was painted with 'Nazi Scum' and signed 'Antifa', in addition to its windows being smashed.
