A-Infos (en) Brazil, Luta FOB: RECC Primer | Building the Classist and Combative Student Movement (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

This booklet is not a magical or finished solution for militant political 
training. Here, comrades will find some information about the history of the RECC 
(Class and Combative Student Network), grassroots work methods, problem solving 
and prevention, ways to organize resistance and struggle, among others. ---- 
Militant political training is a permanent activity. Nobody is born a trained 
militant and you never reach a finished stage, there is always something to 
learn. A militant with greater mastery and clarity of the program, organization 
and militant ethics is formed within the organization and through struggle 
experiences. ---- Sharing knowledge is very important in a horizontal and 
federalist organization, as power and decisions come from the base and not from 
enlightened leaders. Therefore, this booklet is a tool that seeks to include all 
affiliates in their diversities and difficulties, leveling the knowledge and 
practices to help the work of organization and collective struggle of students 
for their rights.

This booklet is aimed mainly at students who are starting their militancy in the 
classist and combative student movement. Here we start from the principle that 
"where there is oppression, there is also resistance". The revolutionary militant 
is always opposed to real oppression, he does not act for convenience or ease. 
History demonstrates that collective struggle in the most difficult contexts was 
essential for the conquest of rights.

The militant, aware of his historic and strategic mission, must never admit that 
the struggle is impossible. He must not intend to fight alone, organized 
collectively it is possible to develop, with patience and persistence, great 
movements.

Individual indignation is fundamental, but it will only have real contestation 
force if it is organized collectively; and its strength will be all the greater 
when it is transformed into mass organization and action. Over time, isolation 
only leads to frustration, accommodation and fear, and the system wins.

Unfortunately, many initiatives by autonomous and combative groups in Brazil are 
merely local, they do not undertake the task of nationalization or local 
massification, they interpret direct action as mere "one-off violence", die due 
to internal disintegration without leaving great legacies or appear only in 
moments of rising struggles, always reactive to the conjuncture, but without 
determining it by their creative action.

This booklet serves to inspire everyone who has decided to break with apathy and 
limited forms of resistance and move towards revolutionary action and 
organization of the student masses throughout Brazil.

Good reading!
