"Ukuchasa ngokupheleleyo, amandla okwenza idemokhrasi!" ngumnqweno okhulayo wenani elikhulayo labantu, imibutho kunye nemibutho, kunye nomxholo weNgqungquthela yesithathu yeDemokhrasi, ngo-Agasti 2-6 eMinneapolis.
Abazimasi abaneenkxalabo zobuqu kunye namava adibeneyo ezisoyikiso kunye namathuba okudala idemokhrasi yokwenyani ngaphambili kwaye ngakumbi ukusukela kunyulo lukaNovemba baya kufumana izithuba ezininzi zokufunda, ukwabelana kunye nokwenza izicwangciso zobuchule. Injongo yeNgqungquthela ayikokuphonononga nje ukuxhathisa uhlaselo olusoloko lusanda ngokwanda ekhaya kunye nentsebenziswano nabo bakwezinye iindawo, kodwa kukwandisa ukufunda nokucwangcisa malunga nokuba kuthatha ntoni ukwakha izakhiwo ezibandakanya ngokwenene nezinamandla ezikwaziyo ukufezekisa utshintsho ngelixa kuqinisekiswa amalungelo kunye nesidima sabo bonke. ukukhusela iplanethi.
Izithethi eziqinisekisiweyo kwiNgqungquthela ziquka uBen Manski kunye noTimeka Drew (iSiseko soMthi weNkululeko kwiNguqulelo yeDemokhrasi), uKaitlin Sopoci-Belknap kunye noGeorge Friday (Hambisa ukulungisa), uDavid Swanson noLeah Bolger (World Beyond War), uCheri Honkala (iPhulo lamaLungelo oLuntu loQoqosho lwaBantu abaPhucukileyo), Chase Iron Eyes (Lakota People's Law Project), Medea Benjamin (CODE PINK), Emily Kawano (Solidarity Economy Network), Jacqui Patterson (INkqubo yoBulungisa beNdawo kunye neMozulu, NAACP), UJill Stein (umtyunjwa kamongameli we-2016), uDavid Cobb (uBulungisa bokuvota), uMichael Albert (umagazini weZ), uNancy Price (uManyano lweDemokhrasi), ummeli wase-US uMark Pocan, uMfundisi uDelman Coates (iZiko lezeMali laseMelika), uEllen Brown (iBhanki lukaRhulumente ), uRose Brewer (iForam yeNtlalo yase-US), kunye noGar Alperovitz (Iprojekthi yeNkqubo elandelayo)
Ingqungquthela ayikwazanga ukuza ngexesha elibaluleke ngakumbi. Siphila kwincopho yexesha elitsha. Iinkqubo ezicinezelayo, ezonakalisayo kunye nezingazinzanga - kunye neengcambu zabo zenkcubeko - zivelisa izoyikiso ezinzulu zehlabathi kunye nokuhlaselwa kwabantu, uluntu kunye nokusingqongileyo kunye nobomi - kunye neplanethi - ukuguqula iziphumo. Imizekelo ibandakanya ukunyuka kokungalingani kwemivuzo, ukuphulukana neendawo zikawonke-wonke, iirobhothi ezithatha indawo yabasebenzi, iimfazwe ezingapheliyo kunye nezoyikiso zeemfazwe zenyukliya, i-capitalist drive yokukhula okungapheliyo kusetyenziswa izixhobo ezinokuphela, ugxininiso lweendaba, ukubekw' iliso ngobuninzi, iingxabano zobuhlanga / zobuhlanga / zenkolo ezisekelwe kwintswela-bulungisa yesakhiwo, ukudala imali engapheliyo emoyeni obhityileyo njengetyala lokuhlawulela amatyala angaphambili kunye nokuqhubela phambili uqoqosho, iindlela zokuyila ngakumbi zokungavunyelwa kwezopolitiko, ukutshintsha kwemozulu okubangelwa ngabantu kunye nokutshatyalaliswa kwenkqubo yendalo, kunye noshishino / ushishino lwabucala phantse yonke intlalo, uqoqosho kunye Umbuso wezopolitiko ukhuselwe ngamalungelo omgaqo-siseko kunye nemali echazwa “njengentetho yenkululeko”
Zonke ezi nyaniso zisingise kumanqanaba agqithisileyo. Ukuba ayilungiswanga, nawuphi na omnye wabo ofikelela kwinqanaba eliphezulu uya kubangela ukuphazamiseka okukhulu kwentlalo. Ngokuqinisekileyo ngokuqinisekileyo ukuvuswa kwenyani enye kuya kubenza mandundu kakhulu abanye - iziphumo ezongezelekayo zibe ziindlela ezingalindelekanga kunye namaqondo okuwohloka koluntu ngokubanzi.
Ngelixa isenokungabi nanguquko ncam njengokuba abantu bafunda ukwenza umlilo, ezi zoyikiso zingasentla kunye nohlaselo zikhuthaza abantu kwiplanethi yonke ukuba bacingisise, bakhuthaze kwaye baziqhelanise nenguquko emincinci kunye neendlela ezinkulu zentlalo, ezoqoqosho, ezopolitiko kunye nezomthetho. Enye yeendlela eziguquguqukayo ezigqubayo okanye ezigqume imizabalazo yethu emininzi kulawulo lwedemokhrasi oluyinyani - ukuqondwa kokuba bonke abantu bafanele babe nelungelo negunya lokwenza izigqibo ezichaphazela ubomi babo.
Ukwabelana kunye neengxoxo ezidibeneyo malunga nendlela yokwandisa kunye nokujula ezi zikhetho ngumsebenzi oyintloko weNgqungquthela yeDemokhrasi ye-2017.
NjengeeNkomfa ezimbini ezidlulileyo ngo-2011 nango-2013, indibano yalo nyaka yingqokelela yabantu abaliqela kodwa abanxibelelanayo “IiNkomfa” - nganye iphonononga indawo eyahlukileyo yeengxaki ezikhoyo kunye nethemba lenguquko yedemokhrasi esisiseko ngeendibano zocweyo, iiphaneli, iindibano zocweyo kunye neeseshini zengqungquthela. .
Iinkomfa ezisibhozo zeNkomfa zezi:
IDemokhrasi eMeliyo - amalungelo okuvota kunye norhulumente ovulekileyo
Ubulungisa bobuhlanga kwiDemokhrasi - ukulingana ngokobuhlanga, ukulingana kunye nobulungisa
Uxolo kunye neDemokhrasi-amandla abantu oxolo kunye nemfazwe
Idemokhrasi yeMedia – ushicilelo lwasimahla loluntu olukhululekileyo
IMfundo eManyeneyo yeDemokhrasi – yenza izikolo zethu, iikholeji neeyunivesithi zibe ngedemokhrasi
Amalungelo oMhlaba kunye neDemokhrasi yehlabathi - umhlaba wabo bonke abantu: yimfuno leyo!
Uluntu kunye neDemokhrasi yoQoqosho - amandla oluntu kunye nabasebenzi: uqoqosho kunye nezopolitiko ngokungathi abantu babalulekile
Ukwenza idemokhrasi kuMgaqo-siseko – ukulungisa umthetho wethu osisiseko
Imimandla emibini eyongezelelweyo yokugxila okanye "iingoma," kwiZakhono kunye noBugcisa kunye nokuNqoba iNkcazelo, iya kubonelela ngezakhono kwizakhono kunye nohlalutyo oluyimfuneko ukuncedisa kwisakhiwo kwiintshukumo ezingaphezulu zokudala kunye nezibandakanyayo zenguqu yoluntu.
Inkomfa nganye iya kuvelisa “uMqulu weDemokhrasi” ngqo kwindawo abasebenza kuyo. Ezi iya kuba ziingxelo ezithe ngqo malunga nendlela ikamva lethu, uluntu lwedemokhrasi oluya kumiswa ngayo ngokomgaqo-siseko kwaye lulawulwe ngokusekwe kwimizabalazo esele ikho yedemokhrasi.
Inyathelo lokuLungisa, elikhuthaza uhlengahlengiso lomgaqo-siseko Wesizwe oluya kubhangisa onke amalungelo omgaqo-siseko wequmrhu kunye nemfundiso esemthethweni yokuba imali ilingana “nenkululeko yokuthetha,” lilungu elikhokelayo lokuqukumbela “iNdibano yeMovement yaBantu” ethabatha iiyure ezininzi. Le seshoni yothatho-nxaxheba ngokumandla iya kutsalela phezu kweMiqulu yeDemokhrasi njengamatye okunyathela ekudaleni umbono wentsebenziswano kunye neqhinga lokwakha amandla abantu kunye nokukhulisa kunye nokudibanisa imibutho yedemokhrasi ukuze kuhlaziywe ngokunzulu umgaqo-siseko. Eyona njongo iphambili kukutshintsha iinkqubo zethu zangoku ezicinezelayo, ezitshabalalisayo nezingazinzanga kufakwe ezo zenyani zedemokhrasi ezikwaziyo ukuphumeza ezinye iindlela eziza kwandiswa yinkomfa nganye.
