Berlin Migrant Strikers
collective
Berlin Migrant Strikers is a collective that has been active in Berlin for almost 10 years. It is an Italian-speaking collective, and over the years it has been active mostly on the issue of migrant labor exploitation, especially in the gastronomy, organizing information counseling on labor law and access to welfare.
As a form of self-financing, we have always organized dinners, NojusticeNopizza events, aperitifs, parties, etc. etc., always trying to give voice to struggles or projects, sharing the income.
For some years we have also shared with other collectives a social space called Wilde, which is also equipped with a large kitchen where one collective cooks for the homeless, another prepares food to sell at markets, catering, social dinners etc. etc., always with a view to sharing, both income but also management.
Over the last few years Berlin has changed a lot, so our political activity has changed too, and right now we are in a phase of adjustment, because although we are together with other collectives managing our space, it is becoming more and more difficult to organize content and events and pay the rent. So, this space for meeting and exchange in which we participate is very precious.
