Not one of the 13 edges

Abel Enbeitia asked in the weekly Alea how many people we want the Basque language to be cultural. I think we ask it and we analyze it little. Often when speaking of use we refer to eleven thousand more data, and it seems that for a Basque the Basque language is or is not a cultural language, it does not affect the use (oral). (We are one of the peoples that most distinguishes “empty” oral use from other uses, I am sure).

Why is child and youth use reduced in a respiratory area? Because families from other backgrounds have reached the village, or because children are consuming more and more cultural products (or acculturals) in Spanish by television, the Internet, etc. ?

I am not fond of personifying collective problems, but I am going to give examples with names and surnames, but not with the intention of blaming anyone: the youtuber azkoitia Iban García makes his videos in Spanish (if he is not for EITB) and Zuhaitz Gurrutxaga and Ander Izagirre have recently published Runner-up in Spanish.

I forgive what was said wrong, but I believe that Basque cultural activity is still very male and very focused.

A few years ago, I asked them if two Euskaldun-Zaharras were going to do something like youtuber -- in Basque. They looked at me with the cow's eyes, "How many followers like that?"

As Willis Drummond has left, Jurgi Ekiza Kazeta.eus has stated that “Many groups speak half in Basque and half in Spanish, saying “Hau gives my reality.” It’s obvious that it’s our reality, so Willis Drummond would also make nine out of ten songs in French.” And in Cira Crespok Berria: “How little history have the Basques made for the Basques, that is, in Basque. It seems that without the approval of Castilian speaking readers, history cannot be made.”

The folded films were disappearing from ETB1 and only four geek cats were noticed. We want Netflix in Basque (all right, huh! ), but how many times is the ETB1 budget less than ETB2? Adult literacy and Euskaldunization are not yet free, and in the Holy Roman Catholic University the Basque language is not the school language for all children.

Come on, please, I don't give one of the thirteen edges -- because, excuse me for what you say wrong, but I think that Basque cultural activity is still very masculine and very focused. Another path proposed by Lorea Agirre and Idurre Eskisabel was the feminist movement that has grown and influenced the most in recent years. The Basque Country, even on its margins (territorial or bodily), breathes in the front line of the linguistic conflict.

More human rights and less extreme right

In this frenetic and vertiginous world in which we live, the social changes that take place little by little seem to us to be sometimes imperceptible, irrelevant or insignificant. That is not the case, however, and we have to be aware of it in order to act wisely. An example of... [+]


Popuerza

On Sunday of September it is customary to climb to Ernio, dance in Zelatun and eat brown chorizo, or something. The worst time you don't need people. This year, when my friends were leaving earlier and I was delaying, I would go up alone, finding the crews coming down. Most young... [+]

Full round

In the border book of The House on Mango Street, written by Sandra Cisneros, a character's dog has two names: one in Spanish and one in English. It may be odd at first sight, even for a book, but if you think more calmly, you realize that the world is full of double names. And I... [+]

It was impossible to guess who was or who was the motto I read, but who was!

The myth of the free market

As in the Middle Ages God dominated, in modern times we live under the market and its rigid laws. The high level wages are determined by the market, as the prizes of the CEOs of Iberdrola or BBVA mark the markets of their sector, although they take 300 times more to the bag than... [+]

Hysterical materialism

“I have withdrawn the rape complaint”

That was said to me by the former student, who took a long time to file a complaint that was in court months and who, on the recommendation of the psychologist, had withdrawn the complaint of rape. And I kept quiet, unable to guess what to tell the young man that he still had... [+]


What do the words 'look', 'understand' and 'person' mean?

Isn't it a sign of pride to look at the people in front of me as if they weren't people? Yes, of course yes. But how can we expect others to understand? Understand, observe, look. Does wanting to understand others not require this proud attitude? Knowing what it is to be a person,... [+]


Newspapers of genocide

They say it's been a year. I have never understood the arrogant habit that Westerners have: even if the conflict lasts almost a century, we adapt the dates to our liking, giving away the importance we want. Has the last era been different for the Palestinians who are imprisoned... [+]
