Who we are and what we want to be ...
Unconscious day-to-day exercise has become a topic during your stay in the Basque Country. I haven't been there for many days and I've been squeezing my breath several times... I'm an observer trying to find and rediscover my people. If I didn’t want to see things before or if we’ve made a big setback, who we are, what we wanted to be…
Oppressed peoples have common tendencies: on the one hand, the attitude of believing that they cannot be oppressors as oppressed peoples; and on the other hand, the will to say that they are international, making known their characters or places. While Ocalan’s image, presided over by the Kurds, and Jineology (the science of women) are spreading, the Basque institutions have decided to designate the feast of Elcano.
"As long as the image of Ocalan, imprisoned by the Kurds, and Jineology (women's science) is disseminated, the Basque institutions have proposed themselves as Elkano's feast"
At a time when the debate on decolority is in the middle of the world, when states are crumbling from the plazas, the lords of Euskal Herria have chosen to sell the Basque label with men who have used colonialism, exploitation and slavery instead of remembering forms of struggle and resistance, places or people. In the hope that they will know us in the world, like Gaztelugatxe, with the consequences that this entails… Unfortunately, I have realized that this trend goes beyond institutions on a warm summer day.
I've been to San Sebastian and I've been hit by the words of a tour guide. In Spanish, he has thrown other choruses between the stacks: “Here before the arrival of the Romans, Argiñano spoke Basque.” My daughter has seen my intention, she has asked me “Mom don’t tell me anything.” I have put the questions to you: Is this the way we tell who we are? Adapting the story to what Spaniards or tourists want to hear? Turn resistance into a joke?
We continued our journey to Hondarribia. My daughter and I have decided to tell the people we hear about in Basque. Today ten, most with dogs and children, then with the Spaniards… I told you what is celebrated in the alarm and attitude towards the women of the fundamentalists. I am surprised to hear my words. Bourgeois and right-wing tourism in my eyes and ears. Sitting by the beach waiting for friends. They have put us in a surreal situation without asking. A five-year-old boy who goes to a German school in Madrid, shows the middle finger and mocks the other French boy of his age, who was naked.
The Basque hairstyle has squeezed my breath. How is it possible to see stickers because the language of the Basque Country is spoken?
Signs indicate which other languages you know where we live...
Who we are and what we want to be (no) is on sale! ! !

When you work with older people or people with physical and neural diversity, you realize that the idea of competition in our society limits us a lot as a species. That is, our system puts you in value by doing things specifically, and what it doesn't do is incapable of the... [+]
I wanted to write for the Christmas lights and claim to become an annual tradition in this time of street lighting, a welcoming, joyful and joyful public space from the point of view of the class. But, of course, also warm public spaces where some young people can be warming up... [+]
He forgives the oak trees, oak trees, oaks, herons, strawberries, dressings, chestnuts, birch, gorostidias, chamomiles, pine trees and all the societies of the trees, but today the hayedo has a date on the occasion of the celebrations of the winter border.

Euskaraldia comes back. Apparently, it will be in the spring of next year. They have already presented it and the truth is that it has surprised me; not Euskaraldia himself, but his motto: We'll do it by moving around.

I do not know if you also have the same perception – I recognise this: here I have started to write in a scientific way. I am referring to the natural extension of the word laziness. I hear more and more in the corners of Hego Euskal Herria: Basque, Spanish and, of course,... [+]
Many at Christmas feel more lazy than illusion when we think about meals and family gatherings. But we anticipate that it is not food that makes us feel collectively uncomfortable, but the normativity that defines the traditional family. Moreover, we would dare to say that the... [+]
I have always found the way in Spanish to the carriages that can be found here and there: humiliating. Isn't it a pretty light, white name or doesn't it have any connotation? After all, everything that was going on there had to be humiliated. It is known that for the god of... [+]
The end of the Syrian Arab Republic has caused great surprise at the way in which it has taken place: fast and almost without resistance. However, it is not so strange when we consider that the country was destroyed, impoverished and trodden. Most Syrians have long been... [+]
Novelty is usually one of the most heard words associated with the Durango Fair. The novelty is there, and here's the novelty. However, in some cases it is sufficient to give a different aspect to the previous one to paste that label. The CDs and remastered reeditions with... [+]
The Basque country has a very large water flow in the shortage. Every local drop curls and revives our culture. Offer a sea of water to that thirst. Although the Basque Country has come from a deep and dark well, we have all drawn our sample of salt water and turned it into a... [+]
Young people start consuming pornography before, as porn is their only sex education. How on earth have we come here?
Today, it has to be acknowledged that thanks to the Internet it is much easier to see pornography. Unfortunately, through a click, the 7-9 year-old boy comes to... [+]
