Resistance is an Australian Revolutionary Socialist youth organisation with its national headquarters in Sydney. Resistance is an independent affiliate of the Socialist Alliance with a strong historical relationship with the Democratic Socialist Perspective, which dissolved into the Socialist Alliance in 2010. Resistance organises under the slogan "When injustice becomes law - Resistance becomes duty". Membership is open to everyone under 26 who is living in Australia and broadly agrees with the aims of Resistance. Resistance is made up of young workers, unemployed, students, and other young people involved in the environmental movement, the women's movement, the queer rights movement, anti-racist campaigns, and solidarity campaigns with struggles overseas. It argues that issues these movements face are products of the capitalist system, and that we need a democratic socialist system to replace it. Resistance organises on campus, at schools, and in workplace and youth trade union campaigns. There are Resistance branches in Adelaide, Brisbane, Geelong, Hobart, Melbourne, Perth, Sydney and Wollongong which operate out of the activist centre in each city. Resistance held its 39th national conference in Wollongong, 24–26 April 2010. The organisation's 40th national conference was held in Sydney in 2011. In 2012, Resistance held its 41st national conference in Adelaide, 20–22 July. Conference participants joined local union activists in a protest at Coles in solidarity with striking transport workers. == Campaigns == Resistance campaigns on many social justice and environmental issues. Current national campaigns include: action on climate change, equal marriage rights, rolling back the Northern Territory Intervention, ending mandatory detention for asylum seekers, equal rights for women, Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel, and stopping cuts to tertiary education. Resistance also campaigns around international issues such as ending the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, ending the occupation of Palestine, support for the Venezuelan and Cuban revolutions, and support for Tamil self-determination in Sri Lanka. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Resistance (socialist youth organisation)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
