A rally titled "Athens, an anti-fascist city" is apparently going to be held next Saturday January 19 at 14:00. Organising the event (as expected) are the Movement United Against Racism and the Fascist Threat, (many) immigrant communities, the Athens municipal council, as well as councils of other municipalities in Attica and all over the country, unions, student societies, etc.
As revealed by the state news agency, slogans will include be: "No concentration camps" and "citizenship for all the kids."
At 4 in the afternoon on the same day a concert will be held in Syntagma Square in Athens with the participation of many groups and artists.
As a show of solidarity, similar events are going to be held in other European cities such as London, Edinburgh, Dublin, Northern Ireland, Barcelona, Paris, Lyon, Brussels, Copenhagen, Tampere in Finland, New York and Chicago.
Let us hope it is a peaceful event.
