In the evening we will go to the Etiler forum to tell friends
        about our resistance and also sell the sweaters we produce to en-
        sure solidarity.

            22 August 2013 Thursday

            Today is the 176th day of the resistance. Until afternoon not

        too many people came. In the afternoon a letter came from Free
        Prisoner Erkan Sonmez, held in Tekirdag No.2 F-Type Prison.
        They wrote that they were following our resistance closely and
        wished us success. In the evening we talked with our friends about
        production. There was an exchange of ideas about problems and
        solutions and the tradition of resistance. At 9 pm, friends from
        the Central (Merkez) neighbourhood resistance visited us. We

        chatted about the resistance.

            23 August 2013 Friday – 177th day

            A new sequestration comes in every day, not just from work-
        ers but from firms that the Kazova Knitting bosses have deceived.
        On Friday 23 August at 12 noon lawyers and bailiffs sent by Deren
        Kimya (Chemicals) came to pursue a debt for 3,500 TL. We said
        we would not let them in to carry out an assessment. We spoke to
        their accountant by telephone, we said we were resisting for our

        rights here and we could not let a lawyer inside. We said that if
        the police allowed a face-to-face confrontation we would make
        clear what the company had done. Then the lawyers turned back.

            In the afternoon friends from the Abbasaga Forum came to
        visit. They said they wanted to make a short documentary for the
        Internet. We accepted and gave an interview. Later on we drank
        tea and chatted.
