The massacre against the immigrant workers of the Parque Indoamericano in Argentina cannot stay unpunished

Rosemarie Churapuña, Juan Castañeta Quispe and Bernardo Salgueiro must be the banner of struggle of the working class and poor peasants of Bolivia and the continent!

In December 2010, thousands of Bolivian, Paraguayan, and Argentinean workers together with their families occupied the Parque Indoamericano-South zone of the Capital Federal- fighting for decent housing. It was a true rebellion of the most over exploited sectors of the Argentinean working class head by the Bolivian immigrant workers as part of the third upheaval of the revolutionary masses rebelled in Bolivia defeating the “gasolinazo” of Evo Morales.

The government of Cristina Kirchner together with the “opposition” of Macri responded it by assassinating three workers with their repressive forces and gang of armed lumpens: Bernardo Salgueiro, Paraguayan, Rosemarie Churapuña, and Juan Castañeta Quispe both of them Bolivian, leaving other dozens of wounded workers.
Unfortunately, all the currents of the reformist left have silenced the demand of justice for the massacred comrades of the Indoamericano. Moreover, they want to make them anonymous martyrs of the working class. In this way, these leaderships cover and sustain the killer government of Kirchner as they do with Morales in Bolivia.

It is not weird. The only thing these currents do is to represent and defend the interests of the petty-bourgeois, labor aristocracy, and the highest layers of the proletariat. For them, the martyrs of the massacre in the Indoamericano, as well as the killed comrades by Kirchner in Jujuy: Ariel Farfán, Felix Reyes and Juan Velásquez “are not part of the working class”, “they are brothers without housing”. They are just who represent the most exploited sectors of our class, the more than two millions of Bolivian immigrant workers who are the heart of the Argentinean working class.

Today, the heroic combats of the revolutionary masses of Bolivia facing the massacre launched by the lackey government of Morales against the TIPNIS poor peasants and their children put at the order of the day the struggle for the revenge and making justice on behalf of the martyrs of our class. Workers and Popular Tribunals to judge and punish the killers of the TIPNIS peasants, the workers of the Indoamericano and Jujuy, and all the martyrs of the working class of the continent!
