Racism helps maintain the capitalist balance of power. Scapegoats serve to divide workers and divert attention from the real problems of the population.

We specifically demand:

• The Swiss passport for everyone born in Switzerland
• The legalization of the Sans-Papiers, because nobody is illegal
• The criminal prosecution of any xenophobic and racist act
• A law on foreigners and asylum based on humanity and solidarity
• Switzerland’s withdrawal from the Schengen and Dublin agreements
• Adequate housing and health care for refugees
• Free movement of people for everyone
• A right to work for everyone living in Switzerland with the same pay for the same work
• Recognition as political refugees by all those people who are persecuted or imprisoned because of their sexual orientation or gender identity
• Ending the detention of refugee minors
• The legalization of homeland travel for second and third generation refugees

And we will not rest …

until, with the socialist society, racism and xenophobia are relics of a dark past.
